The deceit behind Hunter Biden’s sweetheart plea deal gets even more audacious by the day
By Andrew McCarthy
July 11, 2023 4:01pmThe Justice Department’s deceitfulness regarding Hunter Biden’s sweetheart plea deal gets more audacious by the day.
Thanks to the media-Democrat complex’s partisanship, it also gets tougher to pierce — which, of course, is the point.
Delaware US attorney David Weiss is in a vice of DOJ’s own making.
Credible IRS investigators, including supervisory agent Gary Shapley, have reported that he told several law-enforcement officials connected to the Biden investigation that he was not the ultimate decision-maker regarding whether Biden would be charged, that he was being thwarted by other Biden-appointed US attorneys in Washington, DC, and California (the two districts with venue over tax charges) and that the Biden Justice Department, led by Attorney General Merrick Garland, had refused his request to be appointed as a special counsel.
On the other hand, Garland, who is Weiss’ boss, has insisted — preposterously — that Weiss has always been the ultimate decision-maker and that all he needed to do was ask Garland for any extra authority he needed to file charges wherever he thought appropriate.
Garland claims he was never asked.
On Monday, Weiss tried to squirm his way out of this vice in a terse, disingenuous letter to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC).
