"Contradictory Witness Testimony Challenges IRS Whistleblower Claims in Hunter Biden Probe Amidst GOP Impeachment Inquiry"

Testimony from FBI and IRS officials contradicts key claims made by an IRS whistleblower regarding political interference in the investigation of Hunter Biden's taxes. The officials disputed allegations that US Attorney David Weiss lacked authority to decide on charges against Hunter Biden or that he was denied special counsel status. While the witnesses acknowledged Weiss faced challenges finding a venue to bring charges and expressed frustration with the pace of the probe, they did not support the whistleblower's claims of political interference. House Republicans have initiated an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden and his family, with Weiss's plea agreement and special counsel status expected to be scrutinized.
