A GOP-led House committee investigating allegations of potentially improper foreign business transactions has issued a subpoena for the records of a cellphone reportedly purchased by President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden.

Peter Schweizer, an expert on political corruption, stated in an interview that the relevant documents were discovered on Hunter Biden’s laptop computer. Between 2009 and 2017, when the current president was serving as vice president, the phone in issue was reportedly used.

“We obtained that phone number, and we’ve shared it with individuals and the Oversight Committee in Congress is going to subpoena those phone records. And what’s important here is that’s not a government phone, this is not Joe Biden’s private phone that he’s paying for himself. It’s actually [Hunter] Biden’s business that paid for it,” Schweizer told WABC’s Cats & Cosby.

“I think it’s going to yield a lot of interesting information as to who Joe Biden was talking to on this phone that was being paid for by his son,” Schweizer, author of several books on political corruption including, “Secret Empires: How Our Politicians Hide Corruption and Enrich Their Friends and Households,” told the hosts.

The IRS whistleblower who alleges the Department of Justice interfered with the IRS investigation of Hunter Biden has broken his silence, and what he has to say could be devastating for President Biden.

Gary Shapley, an IRS employee for the past 14 years, told CBS News that federal prosecutors were giving the president’s son preferential treatment.

“When I took control of this particular investigation, I immediately saw it was way outside the norm of what I’ve experienced in the past,” he said.

In addition, he expressed dissatisfaction with the Delaware U.S. attorney’s office’s progress in the case.

“There were multiple steps that were slow-walked — were just completely not done — at the direction of the Department of Justice,” the whistleblower said.

“These deviations from the process,” he said, “seemed to always benefit the subject.”

“It just got to that point where that switch was turned on. And I just couldn’t silence my conscience anymore,” he said.

The existence of a whistleblower inside the Hunter Biden probe became known last month after one of Shapley’s attorneys, Mark Lytle, wrote to Congress seeking legal protections for his client, who was maintaining his anonymity at the time. Without those protections, Shapley said he can’t share anything about a taxpayer investigation—including the identity of the subject— without breaking tax secrecy laws. CONTINUE READING…
