PN>>18737595 Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss’s federal investigation against Hunter Biden just became much more interesting
The federal case against Hunter Biden just became much more interestingElizabeth Stauffer - 15h ago
Washington attorney Mark Lytle represents an anonymous IRS criminal supervisory special agent who wishes to come forward as a whistleblower. On Wednesday, Lytle sent a letter to a bipartisan group of members of Congress that said his client “has been overseeing the ongoing and sensitive investigation of a high profile, controversial subject” and would like to reveal his disclosures to Congress. The letter does not name the subject, but Just the News confirmed the allegations pertain to Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss’s investigation of Hunter Biden.
Although the investigation into Hunter Biden was opened in 2018, it did not become public knowledge until December 2020 — conveniently after the 2020 presidential election — when Hunter Biden acknowledged he was the subject of a federal investigation. Last March, the investigation was expanded to include potential money laundering and foreign lobbying violations. But since then, there’s been little to no media coverage of the story.
Lytle’s letter states that his client has already made “legally protected disclosures” to the inspectors general at the IRS, the Treasury Department, and the Department of Justice. He wrote: "The protected disclosures: (l) contradict sworn testimony to Congress by a senior political appointee, (2) involve failure to mitigate clear conflicts of interest in the ultimate disposition of the case, and (3) detail examples of preferential treatment and politics improperly infecting decisions and protocols that would normally be followed by career law enforcement professionals in similar circumstances if the subject were not politically connected."
His client will come forward once he has been assured of legal protections that only Congress can provide, Lytle added. Lytle assured journalist John Solomon that his client has a stellar reputation within the IRS. Additionally, he claimed this person is apolitical and has no social media presence.
Lytle noted that the whistleblower was previously represented by liberal Washington lawyer Mark Zaid, whose name might ring a bell. Zaid represented the whistleblower whose bogus complaint to then-intelligence community Inspector General Michael Atkinson in August 2019 triggered former President Donald Trump’s first impeachment.
Zaid, according to Lytle, reportedly wrote to members of Congress late last year, but no action was taken. Given the Democratic House majority, that’s entirely understandable. It’s unclear if Zaid sent his letter to any Republican lawmakers.
Lytle himself has represented such liberal figures as Yoel Roth, Twitter’s former head of trust and safety. He is currently representing former FBI agent Timothy Thibault, who resigned from the bureau last summer amid allegations he had suppressed the Hunter Biden investigation ahead of the 2020 election.
All in all, Lytle’s client sounds legitimate. Assuming he or she does have evidence that contradicts statements made under oath to Congress by a top Biden administration official (widely believed to be Attorney General Merrick Garland), or that shows Hunter Biden received preferential treatment from DOJ prosecutors, why is this coming out now?
History has shown that those who blow the whistle on Democrats rarely walk away unscathed. Former IRS whistleblower William Henck knows this all too well because he lived it.
After exposing IRS bullying of World War II veterans, evidence of a cover-up in the Lois Lerner case, and the improper giveaway of literally billions of dollars to taxpayers represented by sketchy Washington lobbyists, Henck was terminated from his position as an IRS attorney in November 2017 after 30 years of service.
Henck has some thoughts on the timing of the new Hunter Biden revelations. He told theWashington Examiner, “I'm sure [Lytle is] telling the truth, but there is something larger going on here. I'm guessing that a Democratic Party or bureaucratic faction has decided that it is time for Biden to go. Why are Zaid and Lytle interested, and who is paying them?”
He continued, “From my experience, people couldn't care less about internal IRS whistleblowers. There is no constituency for investigating IRS abuse.” Henck said that during his own experience, he turned to the media because he was unable to “find anyone in authority interested in specific details about IRS corruption.”
“My family and I were hit hard,” he said. “I'm glad that this Hunter Biden whistleblower is apparently being treated well, but there has to be a behind-the-scenes reason for that.”

Once again, anons always posted a portion of the full article 5-7 years ago but bakers started making headlines and links notable in the last few years.
How can you possibly know if its notable to our work here when there is no context? Do we do anymore research or work?
When the catchy headline does not give the answeranons are forced to go to it, to find out if the freakin thing is even notable! It wastes time and energy. You might as well read people magazine headlines.
A headline and link is not notable. If you have a bot collecting headlines and links, that is not anons contributions.
Our contributions relate to the research we do. Why make anons go off the board to read something a bot likes?
I hate to say this but the state of this place is not about research. I and many, many others never thought a headline and link as anything notable. Unless its related to our interest, otherwise we can go look up headlines ourselves. Then we can read it and post a fucking portion of the article so it makes sense, saves anons time and energy and is related to our research.
I’ll keep repeating this as I have done since early in 2018, don’t be lazy anons, post a portion of the article,and bakers a headline and link is not notableunless the headline answers the question in the body exposes
No I don’t think that is it. He will not make a good VP
Agreed her voice and repeating, “let me tell you something” is freakin annoying
Never will that happen
The Best Coach ever and he’s right
For all anons that didn’t read the full rant, go back and read! I included exceptions, but I’m normally on the day shift, so you have no idea of how many these “waste of time notables are posted”.
Anons have not responded tocall to digfor a very long time and have been ignored.
I stand by my statement a headline and link is not notable if the headline does not give the answer. Its almost always a teaser to read the article. Which mostly is nothing they say in the headline

China questions sovereignty of ex-Soviet states
Beijing’s ambassador to France has claimed the legal status of Ukraine and other former USSR republicsisn’t “concrete”
China’s ambassador to France has called into question the sovereignty ofUkraine and other former Soviet republics, suggesting that their hazy status under international law makes it difficult to resolve conflicts over disputed territories such as Crimea. (This is true, Ukraine never filed the papers to be an independent country)
“Even these countries of the former Soviet Union don’t have effective status in international law because there isno international agreement to make their status as a sovereign country concrete,” Ambassador Lu Shaye said on Saturday in an interview with French broadcaster LCI.
Asked by Swiss journalist Darius Rochebin whether Crimea is Ukrainian territory, Lu said, “It depends on how you perceive the problem . . . . It’s not that simple.”
Rochebin tried to correct his guest, saying, “Sorry, according to international law, you know it’s Ukraine. Under international law, you can argue it, you can dispute it, but this is Ukraine.” Lu replied, “Crimea was originally part of Russia, wasn’t it? It was [Soviet leader Nikita] Khrushchev who gave Crimea to Ukraine in the Soviet Union.”
Pressed again on the peninsula’s status, the Chinese diplomat said, “Now, we must not quarrel about this kind of problem again.Now, the most urgent thing is to stop, to cease fire, to stop.”
Chinese officials have tried to maintain a neutral stance on the Russia-Ukraine conflict, resisting pressure from the US and other Western powers to join in condemning Moscow and imposing sanctions. Beijing, which proposed a 12-point peace plan in February, has emphasized the need to stop the bloodshed in Ukraine and work toward a diplomatic solution that accounts for the security concerns of all parties involved.
Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky has vowed to recapture all of his country’s territory, including Crimea – a goal that most of Kiev’sWestern backers don’t see as realistic. Residents of the peninsula voted overwhelmingly for Crimea to become part of Russia in 2014, following a US-backed overthrow of Ukraine’s elected government.
Asked about the importance of territorial integrity from Kiev’s point of view, Lu again pointed to the historical complexity of the issue, saying, “There are enduring problems, aren’t there, about their conflict, their problem? It’s so easy to say in one word. If you have any problems, you can talk about it together.”

Chinese ‘rent-a-womb’ industry menacing US – think tank
Chinese citizens hiring American women to bear their children pose a national security risk, according to the Heritage Foundation
The burgeoning Chinese-American “rent-a-womb” industry, in which aging Chinese couples draftfertile American womento give birth to offspring with US citizenship, is a threat to national security, according to right-wing think tank the Heritage Foundation.
“When it comes to Chinese infiltration into every aspect of American life, this is a huge red flag,” Emma Waters, a research associate with the foundation, told Fox News on Friday. She described a system in which embryos are created via in vitro fertilization in China or the US and then implanted stateside in an American woman, who gives birth nine months later to an American citizen with Chinese DNA.The child is then sent back overseas, raised by Chinese parents with Chinese values.
“Chinese children birthed by an American surrogate gain and maintain the full rights of US citizenship just by being born here,” Waters wrote in a Federalist oped earlier this week, pointing out that “when the child turns 21, the parents will have direct access to citizenship through a green card application.”
Waters described the demographic camouflage US citizenship gives the Chinese children of American surrogates as a national-security threat. “We have no idea who these children are, so should they come back and get involved in research or academia or purchase contracts or even apply for jobs in sensitive areas, we don’t have clear tracking to show that these ‘US citizens’ actually had a far more complicated background and path to the US,” she explained.
No US federal or state lawsrequire the tracking of international surrogacy procedures by country, and many fertility clinics offer their services in Mandarin alongside boasts that they are the “top destination for international surrogacy thanks to the favorable legal, societal, and medical conditions of the United States.”
Surrogacy is illegal in China, which until 2015 limited most couples to a single child – a policy that led to a significant over-representation of males in the country of 1.4 billion people. While Waters acknowledged there was no definite link between the Chinese Communist Party and the commercial surrogacy industry, she suggested its popularity was part and parcel of a Communist invasion that also includes Chinese investments in Hollywood and farmland purchases.
While Waters called for federal restrictions on Chinese surrogacy,hundreds of Chinese babies are born to American women in Californiaalone every year, NPR revealed last year – a significantly more expensive (upwards of $100,000 per child) version of the “anchor baby” phenomenon that incited demographic panic in previous generations of Fox News audiences.

Wargame reveals key US weakness in potential Taiwan war
A think tank has found that Washington would be unable to resupply the island with weapons in the event of a Chinese invasion
A wargame modeling exercise ordered by a US congressional committee has shown that it would beimpossible for Washington to resupply Taiwanwith weapons and equipment after a Chinese invasion of the self-governing island.
The exercise was carried out this week by the US House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, with help from think tank Center for a New American Security in Washington. “We are well within the window of maximum danger for a Chinese Communist Party invasion of Taiwan, and yesterday’s war game stressed the need to take action to deter CCP aggression and arm Taiwan to the teeth before any crisis begins,” US Representative Mike Gallagher, a Wisconsin Republican who chairs the committee, said on Thursday in a statement.
The exercise showed that US forces would suffer heavy losses if the Pentagon doesn’t shore up its stockpiles of long-range missiles and negotiate use of more military bases in the Asia-Pacific region, Reuters reported, citing an unidentified person familiar with the modeling results. The conflict would leave the world’s financial markets in “absolute tatters.”
“The business community is not taking the threat of a Taiwan crisis seriously enough,”Gallagher said, warning that a lax attitude on the issue “verges on dereliction of fiduciary duty.”
Tensions in the Taiwan Strait have escalated in the past year, with Chinese President Xi Jinping vowing to reunify the mainland with its breakaway province – by force if necessary – and US President Joe Biden repeatedly hinting that Washington would intervene militarily if China invaded. Beijing broke off security and climate ties with the US last August, after then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi shrugged off warnings from Chinese officials and went through with a visit to Taipei.
Earlier this year, another Washington think tank, the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), ran 24 different wargame scenarios for a US-China conflict over Taiwan. The study found the US and Japan would emerge victorious but that they would lose dozens of warships, hundreds of planes and thousands of troops. Taiwan would be left in ruins, while China would lose hundreds of ships and aircraft, as well as tens of thousands of troops, the CSIS said.
In light of the resupply problem, Gallagher said, Washington must accelerate deliveries of the $19 billion in US weaponry that Taiwan has ordered. He also called for more joint training exercises, reinforcement of US military installations in the region, and increased missile production.
“The goal of course is to deter China from launching the invasion,” Gallagher said in a Fox News interview before Wednesday’s wargame. “One of the obvious lessons from the failure of deterrence in Ukraine is that when it breaks down, it’s very costly in terms of lives and blood and treasure. So we are conducting this wargame in order to prevent a war.”
Gallagher added that “peace can only be achieved through strength, particularly since Xi Jinping appears to be preparing his country for war. I’m sure he’d prefer to have conquest without war. We need to be ready, and we’re not moving fast enough.”
