House GOP demands consequences for alleged retaliation against whistleblowers
President Joe Biden is likely GOBSMACKED after recent actions in Congress! He may have thought that he and his family are above the law, but some of the few remaining honest politicians are trying to make sure that's not the case.
House Republicans Jim Jordan of Ohio, James Comer of Kentucky, and Jason Smith of Missouri have written a letter to acting special counsel Karen Gorman. The three are NOT giving up on making Biden answer for his actions.
The Republicans feel as if the whistleblowers who outed the Biden family were treated unfairly as a result of their actions, and the current administration needs to be held IMMEDIATELY accountable for weaponizing the federal government against the president's political enemies.
The lawmakers demanded to finally have some answers to an investigation Biden has probably been watching closely, the probe of alleged retaliation against the whistleblowers from the IRS who stepped forward and shared a very important claim.
According to whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, there was massive political influence in the investigation of Hunter Biden.
Since Shapley and Ziegler let their concerns be known, they were allegedly the victims of retaliation from their employer.
In an interview, Shapely said that his employer, the IRS, “has a smothering blanket on me.”
Shapely went on to say that he believes the IRS is “hoping that I quit, that they find some way to terminate me. Or they probably hope that I commit suicide or something.”
Now, months after the investigation into the retaliation claims has been launched, Comer, Jordan, and Smith have had ENOUGH of the waiting game.
They reached out to the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) to follow up on the investigation.
“SSA Shapley’s and SA Ziegler’s whistleblowing took courage and bravery. Because of their important disclosures, Americans learned how the IRS treats individuals differently based upon their last names,” wrote the three lawmakers in their letter.
Jordan, Smith, and Comer went on to say that whistleblowers both “made lawfully protected disclosures to Congress that resulted in unrelenting personal and professional attacks on them.”
“As this case has rightfully garnered significant public attention, OSC must show the whistleblower community that OSC will take appropriate and immediate action to stand up for whistleblowers,” they continued.
For now, all the three House Republicans can do is wait.
Do you think the OSC will report its findings soon?
