A letter from Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss to a Republican lawmaker is raising more questions than answers.
In a Monday letter to Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., obtained by The Federalist, Weiss was still not clear about whether he sought certain authority under a federal statute to adequately prosecute Hunter Biden. Weiss’s communication came in response to a June 28 letter Graham sent the Delaware U.S. attorney seeking clarity on whether Weiss has been denied special counsel authority and shot down in his attempts to bring charges against the Biden son in D.C. and California — allegations made by Internal Revenue Service (IRS) whistleblowers that were substantiated by a contemporaneous email.
Weiss’s letter also came one day after Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, sent an inquiry to the Delaware U.S. attorney’s office to probe whistleblower allegations made against one of Weiss’s deputies. Whistleblowers from the IRS claimed Assistant U.S. Attorney Lesley Wolf repeatedly obstructed the federal investigation into Hunter Biden.
“As you are aware, IRS whistleblowers have affirmed that AUSA Wolf prevented investigators from seeking information about Joe Biden’s involvement in Hunter Biden’s criminal business arrangements,” Grassley wrote, adding that Wolf “frustrated investigative efforts.”
According to IRS whistleblowers, Delaware federal prosecutors concealed the FD-1023 form housed by the FBI, which alleged a multimillion-dollar bribery scheme between the president and foreign businessmen, from the federal tax agency. Former Attorney General Bill Barr confirmed that his Justice Department had referred the document to the Delaware U.S. attorney’s office.
