we re going through a similar dance right now after the president s son pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges drawing a chorus of conservative criticism for a sweet settlement that includes only probation, but now we come to the irs whistleblowers who have been all but ignored by the press and, of course, we have to be cautious about unproven claims. but the new york times, to its credit, broke with the pack by saying it confirmed independently based on a source that a second unnamed irs official claims david weiss, the u.s. attorney in delaware, asked, the oj for special powers to the doj for special powers to pursue the case outside the state and was turned down. whistleblower gary shapley has said he was not the sole decision maker in the case and that he was constrained in the probe. you convinced looking back at this now that this was an effort to protect president biden and his family? there were definitely hindrances that aye never seen before in my 14
