The Hunter Biden plot continues to thicken. Another whistleblower has verified that the FBI appeared to deliberately conceal relevant information related to Hunter’s laptop back before the 2020 presidential election. This, combined with other revelations about the Justice Department and President Joe Biden’s son, show that the proverbial fix was in.

In a testimony to the House Ways and Means Committee, IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley confirmed that the FBI had verified the authenticity of Hunter Biden’s laptop as early as November 2019. Shapley’s testimony supports claims made by Twitter Files reporter Michael Shellenberger that the FBI knew the laptop was authentic.

While speaking with members of the Committee, Shapley said:

In October 2019, the FBI became aware that a repair shop had a laptop allegedly belonging to Hunter Biden and that the laptop might contain evidence of a crime. The FBI verified its authenticity in November of 2019 by matching the device number against Hunter Biden’s Apple iCloud ID.

The FBI did not publicly confirm the laptop’s authenticity. Instead, it indirectly instructed social media platforms to censor coverage of it, alleging it was a Russian hoax. The laptop was later found to contain potential evidence of tax crimes, and the FBI informed the IRS accordingly.

Along with this information, Shapley and another whistleblower accused law enforcement officials of delaying investigations into Hunter Biden. Additionally, it was revealed that Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss sought federal charges against Hunter Biden that were far more serious than that with which he is currently being charged, but was denied by Biden-appointed US attorneys.

This is the latest in a series of allegations made by whistleblowers against the FBI and President Joe Biden. The FBI has faced accusations of politicization and targeting pro-life groups, Catholics, and parents attending school board meetings, according to other whistleblowers.

The committee’s transcript also contained other bombshells. This includes WhatsApp messages between Hunter and a Chinese businessman using his father’s position to threaten him. “I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled,” Hunter wrote.

HUNTER BIDEN: I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled. Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight. And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.

Even though Hunter Biden will likely never face real accountability for his conduct because he is a member of the ruling class, the fact that all this dirt is coming to light is a net positive. It further reveals the level of corruption in our government, which means fewer people will trust these institutions that are typically used to target everyday citizens while protecting the Hunter Bidens of the world.
