Hunter Biden's Attorney Sends Letter Apparently Riddled With Falsehoods To Key Republican

Hunter Biden’s attorney Abbe Lowell is asserting that two Internal Revenue Service (IRS) whistleblowers are part of a Republican smear campaign to damage President Joe Biden, but appeared himself to have spread multiple falsehoods in his letter to the Republican chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee.

A high-powered lawyer who has represented numerous Democratic political figures, Lowell wrote Friday in a letter to Republican Missouri Rep. Jason Smith that IRS Supervisory Agent Gary Shapley and an unnamed agent offered “unsworn and slanted statements” in a bid to “evade their own misconduct.”

Lowell asserted that Shapley and the other whistleblower were not asked appropriate questions and lied to investigators, but Lowell makes multiple claims in the letter that appear to be false.

Lowell claimed in the letter that, in departing from common practice, the two whistleblowers were not informed by the committee that “providing false testimony could lead to criminal charges. However, both interview transcripts explicitly show Republican attorneys warning Shapley and the other whistleblower that they are “required to answer questions from Congress truthfully” and “could be subject to criminal prosecution for perjury or for making false statements” if they lied.

A left-wing lawyer telling outright lies.  Color me surprised, not.  rules of ethics and professional responsibility only apply to non-leftist lawyers; leftist lawyers are supposed to act unethically if it advances the leftist political agenda.

IRS whistleblower attorneys return fire when Hunter Biden’s council attacks with ‘innuendo and bluster’
5–7 minutes

IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley’s attorneys returned fire Friday after Hunter Biden’s counsel slammed congressional Republicans for their investigation into President Joe Biden’s youngest son.

The drama began earlier Friday when one of Hunter’s attorneys, Abbe Lowell, sent a letter to House Ways and Means Committee chair Jason Smith essentially accusing him of running a sham investigation.

In the letter, he called the investigation “an obvious ploy to feed the misinformation campaign to harm our client, Hunter Biden, as a vehicle to attack his father.”

He also suggested that Shapley and the other IRS whistleblower came forward with allegations of malfeasance “in an attempt to evade their own misconduct.”

And he claimed that the “timing of the agents’ leaks and your subsequent decision to release their statements do not seem innocent.”

As previously reported, last week Smith released transcripts of the committee’s interviews, conducted months earlier, with Shapley and the other whistleblower.

Lowell continued by even questioning the legitimacy of the infamous WhatsApp text message in which Hunter Biden reportedly had threatened a Chinese official by citing his dad.

“The screen-grab images you posted are not real and contain myriad of issues….In short, the images you circulated online are complete fakes,” the attorney wrote.

 :yowsa: And Abbe Lowell is about as good at those things as anyone. Has any leftist lawyer ever been held to account for their malfeasance? If so, I haven't seen it reported anywhere.
