Former U.S. assistant attorney Andy McCarthy said Monday on Fox News that newly appointed special counsel David Weiss may have a way to ensure President Joe Biden wins his reelection campaign.
Attorney General Merrick Garland announced Friday that Weiss would be appointed special counsel to continue the ongoing investigation into Hunter Biden. Weiss came under scrutiny after IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley testified that Weiss was not in control of the Hunter investigation. Weiss allegedly told a group of law enforcement officials in an Oct. 22 email that he was “not the deciding person on whether charges [would be] filed” in the Hunter case.
Weiss has denied those allegations.
McCarthy said he prefers to refer to Weiss as a “sham” rather than a special counsel, arguing the appointment was solely political.
“What Garland is doing, is assigning the case to Weiss, which is no change cause it has been assigned to him since 2018, and labeling him a special counsel but he is not a special counsel under the regulations of the Justice Department for that process. And the reason he is doing that is to try to convey the impression to people that there is some kind of independent integrity to this investigation, which is laughable given the way it has been conducted to this point.”
