Feds thwarted probe into possible 'criminal violations' involving 2020 Biden campaign, agents say
Just the News ^ | 9/20/23 | John Solomon

he FBI and IRS probed allegations that Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign may have benefitted from “campaign finance criminal violations” by allowing a politically connected lawyer to help pay off Hunter Biden’s large tax debts but agents were blocked by federal prosecutors from further action, according to new information uncovered by congressional investigators.

The previously unreported campaign finance inquiry was first alluded to in transcribed interviews by House investigators with two IRS agents and a retired FBI supervisor, and the allegations since have been augmented in recent weeks by new evidence uncovered by the House Ways and Means Committee, the House Judiciary Committee and the House Oversight Committee.

That evidence includes a case summary memo written by IRS Supervisory Criminal Investigative Agent Gary Shapley to his bosses dated May 3, 2021 in which he alleged that Lesley Wolf, a top prosecutor in the Hunter Biden case inside Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss’ office, waived agents off the campaign finance case. Shapley provided the information to Congress under the protections of whistleblower laws, and lawmakers voted the information to be public

“Yeah, things related to the campaign were kind of, at least during the investigative stages, were off limits,” Ziegler testified.

“Do you mean the Presidential campaign?” he was asked.

“Yes, the Presidential campaign,” he answered.

“In 2020?” the House lawyer pressed,

“Yes, but we'd not have found out about it until after everything was done. So this would have been when we went overt. Does that make sense?” Ziegler testified, suggesting the allegations involved the 2020 campaign but were only discovered after the election when FBI and IRS agents began taking public action in the other Hunter Biden case starting in December 2020.”

It's too bad we don't have an opposition party who could combat the fraud and corruption.

Correct.

The feral givernment, media and big tech have their job to isolate and make Trump and anyone else who sought transparency the criminals. In addition, there is active censorship going on as well as fabrications (Wikipedia) being put out there as sources of truth. The feral givernment is going after some of these new criminals. The average person walking around staring at his handheld computer, (giving benefit that he is not stupid) suffers from information overload to understand or care.

If you read Molly Hemmingway's book Rigged you will have a pretty good start.

Even though most FReepers paid attention as we lived it, I urge everyone to read it.

It is worse than I remembered.

We are supposed to have an objective media, to keep everyone honest...EVERYONE!

However, the more perks, special consideration and outright coddling the media get, the more biased they have become.

That idea of protecting them in return for assurance of their constant and unrestricted free speech is totally front-loaded. The media has not delivered on THEIR end of that agreement for many, many decades.
