IRS Whistleblower X Comes Forward: Joe Ziegler Testifies Regarding Biden Investigation
“…there is nothing that indicates Hunter Biden will be required to amend his false tax return for 2018; a false tax return that includes improper deductions for prostitutes, sex clubs and his adult children’s tuition.”
Whistleblower X is IRS Special Agent Joe Ziegler, a gay Democrat married to a man.
I normally do not like identity politics, but it’s essential here because the Democrats cannot go after him based on his identity. Oh, who am I kidding? Of course they will. He stepped off the plantation.
Here is his opening statement.

Ziegler thinks we need a special counsel:
As I had previously testified, and is contained in my written testimony I’ve outlined for you some instances in which assigned prosecutors did not appear to follow the normal investigative process, slow walked the investigation, and put in place unnecessary approvals and roadblocks from effectively and efficiently investigating the case.
A number of times we were not able to follow the facts…
It appeared to me based on what I experienced that the US Attorney in Delaware in our investigation was constantly hamstrung, limited and marginalized by DOJ officials, as well as other US attorneys. I still think that a special counsel is necessary for this investigation.”

ZEIGLER: “Today I sit here before you not as a hero or — or a victim, but as a whistleblower compelled to disclose the truth. That said in coming forward, I believe I’m risking my career, my reputation, and my casework outside of the investigation we are here to discuss.”

ZEIGLER: “Although I do have my supporters, others have said that I am a traitor to the Democratic Party, and that I am causing more division in our society. I implore you to consider that if you were in my position with the facts as I have stated them, ask yourself if you’d be doing the exact same thing. I hope that I am an example to other LGBTQ people out there who are questioning doing the right thing at the potential costs themselves and others. We should always do the right thing no matter how painful the process might be. I kind of equate this to experience and feelings I encountered when coming out. It was honestly one of the hardest things I ever had to go through. I contemplated scenarios that would have been highly regrettable, but I did what is right and I’m standing in — or I’m sitting here in front of you today.”

He also said that Hunter didn’t report his Burisma income in 2014. No punishment for Hunter:
ZIEGLER: “Thus, as I read the public documents as to the Department of Justice action against Hunter Biden, there is nothing that indicates Hunter Biden will be required to amend his false tax return for 2018; a false tax return that includes improper deductions for prostitutes, sex clubs and his adult children’s tuition.”

IRS whistleblower Joseph Ziegler says Hunter Biden did not report any of his income from Burisma Holdings in 2014 to the IRS. Statute of limitations was allowed to expire on that case, though, so he will never have to pay it.

Ziegler has never been told not to interview a relevant witness:
REP. JASON SMITH: “Assistant United States Attorney Lesley Wolf told you that you would ‘get into how water’ if [you] interviewed the president’s grandchildren…Have you ever had a prosecutor tell you that you couldn’t interview a relevant witness?!”

“There was an environment, when we were interviewing witnesses, where you were afraid to ask questions — questions that could lead to the [Biden] presidential campaign. And this is after the campaign’s over!

After listening to the Democrats tirade against the truth being made known, I decided to call this “Attack the Whistleblower Day”.
Here is the appropriate page from the Democrat playbook: “Anyone who dares to speak up should be thrashed so severly that they will never again dare to put a whislte to their lips, let alone blow it.
If there is no impeachment, it means most of Congress is just as corrupt and worse – just as owned by foreign powers.
Or it means that it would be a show impeachment (just like the two the Democrats orchestrated against Trump) because the Democrat-led Senate will never convict. Besides, all that would do is the same thing it did for Trump, get Democrats to circle the wagons around him and give him an approval bump. Tilting at windmills and peeing into the wind are just not smart especially when all you are doing–all you CAN do–is boost your opponent.
Or it means that it would be a show impeachment (just like the two the Democrats orchestrated against Trump) because the Democrat-led Senate will never convict.
Impeaching without the likelihood of conviction (due to partisan interests) is not the same as impeaching over blatant lies as a political maneuver.
If someone commits criminal behavior in office then he should be impeached, whether he will be convicted or not. It is never proper, however, to run a fake impeachment just because you don’t like someone.
One is a show trial the other is not. In fact, in the case of a proper impeachment with a lying Senate refusing to convict, then the illicit part of the event is the Senate trial, not the House impeachment.
When someone commits crimes in office – most especially using that office to commit crimes of abuse – then that person certainly should be impeached, whether it will end in a conviction or not. What’s right is right.
Anything less – and soon – will prove the GOP is in on the corruption and treason.
BTW: where is that moron Ronna Romney McDaniel?
“”BTW: where is that moron Ronna Romney McDaniel?””
Having lunch with the former President who endorsed her?
I agree that it is tilting at windmills but you are overlooking the fact that all of the evidence against the DoJ, IRS, and Garland will come out in the trial. After watching the hearing, I know how the Dems will vote but the exposure to the American public of their involvement in this cover-up would be worth it.
Golf club memberships are not deductible. What kind of in depth reporting is this?
Well, as a Yale-trained lawyer, the crackhead should have known better. The reporter was simply saying what happened.
My point. The story would be even more damning to the public if reporters were not too stupid and lazy to even sell used cars. The same crap was “only repeated” about rogue IRS agents during the Lois Learner reign of terror. Common field agents have no power.
In the good old days an alphabet boy wouldn’t have passed the background investigation to become an agent. Republicans will never learn. Trotting out a bent boy with a rainbow cravat, whining about his identity, won’t score any points with the democrats. They just brand him a traitor and note how pathetic a play the Republicans made. Real men only please.
Dude Howard needs some REAL MEN. That towel isn’t going to snap itself. You should join the army just for the group showers. 😅
Howard, you’re half right: the Republicans are pathetic. Worse, they’re in on the treason and corruption.
I believe the dues paid by the business/employer remain 100% deductible IF they are reported as part of W2 income. Meals, golf course fees and other entertainment costs at the club for clients/employees (with a business purpose) remain 50% deductible unless billed to client.
Fifty percent of business meals etc., would also be deductible at a strip club. An employee receiving his wages in the form of golf club membership- fully reportable? What the Hell is the sense of that? Golf club memberships are not deductible.
Is the golf course where you and your frat buddies relive your exciting days of homoerotic hazing rituals? 😂
I’ve been watching these hearings and, all I can say, is that the democrats are the lowest dirtbags there are. They are laughable in their attempts at diversion and deception. They are no countrymen of mine and I have absolutely no desire to have to share a country with them, since what they want is either a smoking husk of a dead nation or a police state like the old Soviet Union that Democrats pined for for so long.
The USA is doomed to have these democrat traitors in such large numbers and completely unconstrained by any law or tradition or common sense. We are not long for this world with this sort of demented population. We must have a national divorce. Dems cannot be lived with by any decent people and, if they are not going to be held liable for their very serious crimes (which are insidious and numerous and unrelenting) then they have to be stuck in their own country by themselves. I want absolutely nothing to do with any of them. NOTHING.
Yep, it’s confirmed, the pedophile was pulling strings to protect the crackhead.
Did not realize this hearing was about Emmett Till or Geroge Floyd.
As predictable as a clock, resident manly man “E Howard Hunt 😂” can’t resist phoning in some cringeworthy pseudo-witty slur referencing homosexuality. Could that laughable tool be any more insecure? Dude needs some serious therapy about his masculinity issues.
E Howard Hunt is the classic “closeted conservative homosexual.” See the Lincoln Project for reference. Hopefully his posts here at LI will be part of his coming out of the closet.
Stop talking about yourself. And go away. Pathetic creep. Just go.
“I implore you to consider that if you were in my position with the facts as I have stated them, ask yourself if you’d be doing the exact same thing.”
Pollyanna. That USED to be the American ethos. No more. Certainly not in Democrat land, where the new ethos is “by any means necessary.”
Open thread, audience participation:
“Ten ways golf clubs are just like sex clubs:”
My own contribution was going to be, “Having to recover from a bad lay can annoy you for days,” but someone who actually plays golf reminded me that the expression is a bad LIE, so it doesn’t work.
I’m sure you-all will do better.
It’s been said by one wag (whose name I forget) that his worst lay was absolutely delightful.
And, as a one=time golfer, making a good recovery from a bad lie was the stuff of post-round bragging and fond memories.
Trump. The most persecuted INNOCENT man in American history.
Good Lord get a grip.
What “grip”? He’s right on the money. Trump IS the most persecuted INNOCENT man in American history.
Interesting note from the hearings is that the US Attorney for DC appointed by Biden us not only responsible for blocking the Hunter probe but he is the one now aggressively prosecuting Jan 6 protesters.
He is the guy who said he could possibly prosecute as many as 1000 additional people for being at the capital or entering even if they engaged in no violence or property crimes.
He may have to up his Biden donation this cycle to keep from being mad a scapegoat if the House or Tucker really pursue the capital security tapes or failure to authorize adequate security as offered by Trump.
My takeaway from the hearing is that the Dems knew they had nowhere to go with the basic facts so they went with total BS. They didn’t even go after the two witnesses like they usually do because of their impeccable records. Only a couple of the Dems actually asked questions on the subject and they found themselves in hot water because of the answers they got. The old lawyer’s saw of “Don’t ask a question if you don’t already know the answer” was apparent.
I also hope that he is an example to other LGBTQ people. They really need more.
