Testimony by two IRS whistleblowers about President Biden's son, Hunter Biden, was a 'game changer,' a senior Republican aide said.
House Republicans are moving closer to opening an impeachment inquiry after the transcribed interviews and public testimony earlier this summer by two IRS whistleblowers regarding the government's handling of its investigation into President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden.
White House spokesperson Ian Sams said,"This baseless impeachment exercise would be a disaster for congressional Republicans, and don't take our word for it: just listen to the chorus of their fellow Republicans who admit there is no evidence for their false allegations and that pursuing such a partisan stunt will 'backfire.'"
, and he then asked for the designation. Garland said he concluded it was"in the public interest" to appoint Weiss special counsel, giving him expanded powers to continue the probe, in light of the"extraordinary circumstances" of the case.subpoenaed Smith said in the letter that the committee wanted to speak with them because of their"direct knowledge of a key meeting on October 7, 2022, in which updates about the Hunter Biden investigation were discussed." He went on to note that the IRS officials had so far"refused to voluntarily cooperate" with the request for a transcribed interview, so they were therefore being subpoenaed.
The IRS did not immediately respond to CBS News' request for comment. A spokesperson for Weiss in Delaware and the Justice Department declined to comment. However, in court documents, Weiss has indicated the investigation is ongoing. White House spokesperson Ian Sams said,"This baseless impeachment exercise would be a disaster for congressional Republicans, and don't take our word for it: just listen to the chorus of their fellow Republicans who admit there is no evidence for their false allegations and that pursuing such a partisan stunt will 'backfire.
