Hunter Biden prosecutor snubs House Judiciary deadline for probe docsBy Josh Christenson
July 6, 2023
Delaware’s top federal prosecutor ignored a House Judiciary Committee request Thursday to hand over Justice Department communications about the five-year investigation into Hunter Biden — including information about IRS investigators being kicked off the case weeks before the first son struck a plea deal.
US Attorney David Weiss had until 5 p.m. Thursday to share any correspondence between his office and Attorney General Merrick Garland, as well as the reasons why the IRS team was let go, a spokesman for the House panel told The Post. The deadline came and went with no word from Weiss.
On Wednesday, a bicameral group of senior Republican lawmakers sent a letter to the Office of the Special Counsel asking for a review of the purported reprisals against the IRS investigative team, saying the agents themselves were not informed of anti-gag provisions that gave them the right to disclose information to Congress.
