An Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agent claims lies and politics have corrupted the federal government's criminal investigation into Hunter Biden.
On Wednesday, IRS agent Mark Lytle's attorney sent letters to Republican and Democrat leaders in Congress detailing the allegations against the agency currently investigating the President's son.
According to The Daily Wire, the letter does not directly name Hunter, and only says the agent is overseeing the “ongoing and sensitive investigation of a high-profile, controversial subject.” However, sources separately confirmed to The Wall Street Journal the investigation into Hunter Biden is the focus of the matter.
The letter identifies the client as an “IRS criminal supervisory special agent” who has already made “legally protected disclosures internally at the IRS, through counsel to the U.S. Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration, and to the Department of Justice, Office of Inspector General.” Now this IRS agent wants to make protected whistleblower disclosures to Congress despite “serious risks of retaliation,” the letter says.
Disclosures made to the government watchdogs “contradict sworn testimony to Congress by a senior political appointee,” “involve failure to mitigate clear conflicts of interest in the ultimate disposition of the case,” and “detail examples of preferential treatment and politics improperly infecting decisions and protocols that would normally be followed by career law enforcement professionals in similar circumstances if the subject were not politically connected,” according to the letter.
The letter adds: “Some of the protected disclosures contain information that is restricted by statute from unauthorized disclosure to protect taxpayer and tax return information.”
Hunter Biden is under federal investigation for his foreign business dealings, tax affairs, and more.
The White House on Thursday dismissed allegations from the whistleblower.
“Since he took office and consistent with his campaign promise that he would restore the independence of the Justice Department when it comes to decision-making in criminal investigations, President Biden has made clear that this matter would be handled independently by the Justice Department, under the leadership of a U.S. Attorney appointed by former President Trump, free from any political interference by the White House,” White House spokesman Ian Sams told Fox News Digital on Thursday.
“He has upheld that commitment,” he added.
Last month, the Department of Treasury agreed to hand over suspicious activity reports (SARs) related to Hunter Biden‘s foreign business deals to the House Oversight Committee. (RELATED: Treasury Department To Hand Over Suspicious Activity Reports Related To Hunter Biden Probe To GOP-Led Committee)
Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) initially requested information about the Biden family and their associates' business transactions flagged by U.S. banks in January.
Under federal law, when banks suspect suspicious overseas activity by an account holder, it submits a “suspicious activity report” or “SAR” to the Treasury Department.
However, the Department's delay in responding to the requests triggered an investigation into the matter and prompted Comer to hold a March 10 hearing to examine the Treasury Department's sudden refusal.

Well, were still waiting to see how equal the justice system is. IMO
Anyone that’s been awake for the last 14-15 years knows this cover up for Hunter has been going on at least that long. Daddy has used the government law enforcement departments to cover for his son since at least the start of the obama disaster. This is all smoke and nothing will be done about his illegal activities, as usual.
The poor investigating devils probably fear for their lives because as Brandon sez (on RECORD): ‘Nobody ****s with a Biden.’
For all of us older people, we’ll all be dead and gone waiting to see any kind of Justice while this current Traitor and Crook is in office. While Hunters always had that Teflon coating wrapped around him while he’s been selling and trading classified documents with his Chinese business associates . Holding those meetings at one of many College Offices ( where Daddy kept them !! ) Which Daddy was taking them even while he was the VP which is illegal in its self , only a President can declassify them and hold them when not put into the archives . The WHOLE FAMILIES a bunch of common criminals !!! Son , Brother, Daughter, and even his daughter in laws been getting checks from Chinese payoffs !! COMMON CRIMINALS , all of em !
