Is the IRS retaliating against Gary Shapley, Joseph Ziegler, IRS whistleblowers?

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La.), Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La., Jim Jordan, Jamie Comer and Jason Smith, the chairmen of the House Judiciary Committee, House Oversight Committee and House Ways and Means Committee, respectively, have started an investigation into the Office of Special Counsel. These chairmen, along with Speaker Johnson and Majority Leader Scalise, have issued this joint letter asking for information on "whether the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) has contributed to the retaliation against IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler."

Specifically, "the House Republican leaders are seeking a briefing to determine whether there has been improper influence in the IRS whistleblowers’ claims pending before OSC." These GOP leaders didn't stop there. They continued their letter, saying "IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler have been wholly consistent in their testimony about misconduct and politicization in the Department of Justice’s criminal investigation of Hunter Biden. They did exactly what an honorable government employee should do: when they witnessed wrongdoing, they reported it responsibly and made legally protected disclosures." Check this out:

This isn't small potatoes. I suspect that this is part of Hunter Biden's upcoming income tax trial in L.A. Biden was just convicted of 3 felonies involving the illegal purchase of a handgun. This time, they're investigating whether this alleged income tax fraud by Hunter Biden financially benefitted Joe Biden, Jim Biden or anyone in the Biden family.

David Weiss, the special counsel appointed to prosecute Hunter Biden, has let the statute of limitations expire on the 2014 and 2015 tax charges. That isn't alleged. That's verified fact. Rep. Harriet Hageman, (R-WY), grilled Merrick Garland on why Weiss let those charges lapse and why he couldn't comment on those charges:

FYI- Rep. Hageman is a major step forward from Wyoming's last representative, which was Liz Cheney. Let's be clear about this. Merrick Garland is as slippery as Liz Cheney. I don't trust either of them. If the statute of limitations has expired, how can they be part of an ongoing investigation? That sounds like just another of Garland's slippery replies. Simply put, the DOJ and IRS both need to be sanitized operationally. They're both as filthy as a pig sty.

It isn't coincidental that Shapley and Ziegler figure to be prominent witnesses in Hunter Biden's income tax trial. What better way to smear a witness than by having your dad's (Joe Biden's) IRS and DOJ smear them for you? Do I know this with certainty? No. Would I put it past past Joe Biden? Not a chance. It's definitely something I'd investigate..

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

Blistering Barack's butt (bigtime)

Image
This past weekend, Barack Obama tried spreading the blame around for Hamas's murderous rampage of Oct. 7. This blistering op-ed hints that Mr. Obama isn't the effective communicator that he once was. Obama initially insisted that "nobody's hands are clean" from the Oct. 7 Massacre. Liel Leibovitz, the Editor at large of Tablet Magazine wrote this op-ed questioning Obama's intellectual honesty. After Obama said that nobody's hands are clean, Mr. Liebovitz wrote wrote "Nah, man. Not all of us are complicit. It's just you. It's you, because you're the one who gave that stentorian speech about red lines in Syria and then sat by and did nothing as those red lines were crossed and Assad continued to slaughter his own people, allowing the Iranians and the Russians to creep in and fill the vacuum left by your devastating lack of leadership." In short, Mr. Liebovitz isn't buying what Mr. Obama is peddling. Let's question Mr. Obama a

Why is Joe Biden letting Hamas off the hook?

Image
It isn't disputable whether Joe Biden's administration is letting Hamas off the hook. That issue was settled months ago, when a spineless Joe Biden caved to activists interested in saving Hamas and thwarting the Israelis' attempt to defend themselves. Gerard Baker's op-ed highlights what's at stake for the U.S. if the terrorists are permitted to survive. In his op-ed, Baker wrote "If, under the pressure of internal Democratic politics and global public opinion, the Biden administration forces a 'cease-fire' that leaves our closest ally in the region short of victory over an enemy that seeks to destroy it, sooner or later we shall all pay the price." It's time to revisit George W. Bush's speech to a joint session of Congress on Sept. 20, 2001. It's required that we remind ourselves of one of its most important paragraphs. In talking about who committed the atrocities of 9/11, President Bush identified al-Qa'ida as "a collectio
