Second IRS Hunter Biden whistleblower’s ID to be revealed

A previously anonymous IRS whistleblower who has claimed a coverup in the Hunter Biden investigation will soon be anonymous no more.

His name will be revealed during a House Oversight Committee hearing set for next week, a spokesperson for the panel confirmed to The Post Wednesday.

During the July 19 hearing, the committee will hear public testimony testimony from IRS supervisory agent Gary Shapley and the second whistleblower, whose name has been kept under wraps since their presence became publicly known in May.

“Thanks to the good work of Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith, IRS whistleblowers recently provided information to Congress that confirm many findings of our investigation,” Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) said in a statement.

“These whistleblowers provided information about how the Justice Department refused to follow evidence that implicated Joe Biden, tipped off Hunter Biden’s attorneys, allowed the clock to run out with respect to certain charges, and put Hunter Biden on the path to a sweetheart plea deal,” he added.

Shapley and the other whistleblower, known to be his subordinate, testified for roughly six hours on May 26 and June 1, respectively, outlining allegations that political biases dogged the federal inquiry into the first son’s finances.

Transcripts from the whistleblower’s testimony were made public June 22. In it, they alleged that Delaware US Attorney David Weiss, who helmed the probe, was stymied from pursuing additional charges against Hunter Biden in both Southern California and in Washington, DC.

Weiss has since come forward, and publicly maintained that he had “ultimate authority” in his inquiry.

However, the prosecutor caveated in a June 30 letter to the House Judiciary Committee that “my charging authority is geographically limited to my home district” and noted that “If venue for a case lies elsewhere, common Departmental practice is to contact the United States Attorney’s Office for the district in question and determine whether it wants to partner on the case.”

Shapley additionally alleged that Assistant US Attorney Lesley Wolf discouraged federal investigators from lines of inquiry related to Joe Biden. 

Comer has long set his sights on the Biden family’s overseas dealings and possible influence peddling.

With next week’s testimony from the IRS whistleblowers, he is adding the Justice Department’s review of the first son into his purview.

“Americans are rightfully angry about this two-tiered system of justice that seemingly allows the Biden family to operate above the law,” Comer added. “We need to hear from whistleblowers and other witnesses about this weaponization of federal law enforcement power.”

Weiss ultimately reached a deal with Hunter Biden in which the first son will plead guilty to misdemeanor counts of willful failure to pay his federal income taxes in 2017 and 2018, according to court documents. 

The 53-year-old will also enter a pretrial diversion agreement for a felony charge of possession of a firearm while addicted to illicit drugs.

Hunter Biden is slated to attend a federal court hearing in Wilmington, Del. on July 26 to enter his plea.
