Former acting Attorney General under President Trump Matthew Whitaker recently gave an interview to Fox News where he discussed his thoughts on the Hunter Biden probe. He asserted that the US Attorney in charge of the case, David Weiss, was aware of the whistleblower testimony claiming political intervention in favor of the president’s son. Danny Werfel, the IRS commissioner under Biden, and Attorney General Garland reportedly stated that Weiss had complete discretion over his inquiry and choice to press charges. Whistleblowers, in contrast to their assertions, have vehemently denied this claim.
Whitaker said this “U.S. Attorney Weiss could shut this down just by saying ‘what they’re saying is not true, those conversations didn’t happen,’ but he knows there were at least six witnesses to those conversations, and it is true, he did try to take these charges to other places like D.C. and L.A….He [Weiss] did try to get special counsel status from DOJ and was denied.”

Whitaker further said “Weiss will have a very interesting story to tell and we should wait for him to speak…Congress should demand he come and speak as soon as possible to clear all this up.”
The head of the group Empower Oversight Whistleblowers and Research, Tristan Leavitt, also provided some proof that would indicate Weiss was aware that his authority was not absolute. Leavitt penned “U.S. Attorney Weiss’s letter confirms exactly what Gary Shapley told Congress: Weiss did not have “full authority” to bring charges, but had to “partner” with relevant U.S. Attorney. Says he’s “been assured” he could get Special Attorney status in future—but hasn’t had it yet.”
Two pages of a letter from David Weiss to the House Committee on the Judiciary dated June 30, 2023, are attached to the tweet. The document’s most significant admission was that “[a]s the U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware, my charging authority is geographically limited to my home district.” The highly favorable terms of Hunter Biden’s plea agreement with the Department of Justice appear to be another new piece of evidence in support of the whistleblowers.
According to Robert Barnes, a nearly 25-year legal veteran who specializes in tax and constitutional law, “I confirm how rare & extraordinary the [Hunter Biden] plea deal is. Indeed, the deal violates DOJ Tax official policy, where Biden’s DOJ prohibit prosecutors from even offering this deal to people who did far less than Hunter.”
Barnes said that the agreement “violates is the “Major Count” policy, and it’s right in the Tax Division manual.”

Barnes also made the point that the sale could only have been completed legally if it had gotten approval from the higher-ups. “A key: the sweetheart deal given to [Hunter Biden] required the approval of high ranking Biden DOJ officials, by law, as a matter of their delegation rules” wrote Barnes.
These lines of evidence provide credence to the whistleblowers’ assertions by corroborating their testimony.
Now we have a DOJ that is political for Democrats against all others.
