Tuesday in closed-door testimony before the House Ways and Means Committee, Internal Revenue Service agent Joseph Ziegler disclosed that Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, obtained loans amounting to nearly $5 million from a donor for personal expenditures.
“Hunter appeared to follow a pattern of attempting to avoid paying taxes on relevant income. This first started with Hunter not reporting the Burisma income in 2014 and allegedly falsely claiming that it was a loan to him,” Ziegler said in his testimony.
“He, again, tried to claim the millions in income earned from Hudson West III was a loan to him, which was refuted by the evidence and was not allowed by his tax accountants. This continued into 2020, 2021 and 2022, in which Hunter received approximately $4.9 million in payments for personal expenses, again in the form of a loan and gift from Democratic Donor Kevin Patrick Morris,” he added.
Morris, according to Ziegler, also repaid Hunter’s past-due taxes.
“As stated in my previous testimony, I read a note from Hunter Biden’s 2020 tax return that Hunter Biden received a loan from a 3rd party, known to be Kevin Patrick Morris, in paying off Hunter Biden’s delinquent taxes,” he said.
Ziegler’s interview corroborates reporting from last month that since Joe Biden began his presidential campaign, Kevin Morris and Hunter Biden have taken out a succession of loans totaling $5.3 million.
Ziegler and Gary Shapley, who oversaw the IRS investigation into Hunter Biden’s tax issues and are also whistleblowers, have made allegations that the U.S. Justice Department obstructed their investigation and halted certain actions that they were prepared to execute based on multiple leads.
According to Ziegler, Hunter’s tax accountant said the 2017 and 2018 tax liabilities were “discussed with Hunter Biden on February 11, 2020, and that he elected to not remit the tax payments because he did not have the resources to pay them.”
“It is noted that the month prior to this, Morris made a $160,000 tax payment, in an attempt to pay off Hunter Biden’s delinquent 2015 tax debt, which was a point of contention with Hunter’s ex-wife at the time,” he said. “Hunter may have been in breach of his marital separation agreement and Hunter’s ex-wife at the time was having an issue renewing her passport due to the delinquent tax debt.”
Additionally, Ziegler illustrated how Hunter’s international business dealings with the Ukrainian energy firm Burisma might have been associated with his father.
He revealed that on April 17, 2015, Vadym Pozharskyi, advisor to the Burisma Board of Directors, thanked Hunter via email for “the opportunity to meet your father and spend time together.”
Ziegler stated that investigators “were never granted the opportunity to interview Joseph Biden” to ascertain the contents of the meeting.
The testimony of the whistleblower occurred as the House Republican Party prepares to hold a formal vote next week regarding the initiation of an impeachment investigation against Biden.
The Ways and Means Committee voted Tuesday to “release 56 new pages of evidence showing that then-Vice President Joe Biden used multiple email aliases and private email addresses to communicate with his son’s business associate and main financial architect.” in response to the closed-door testimony of the whistleblowers.
The committee has established a connection between Hunter and the private email and aliases.
“The president appears now to not only have had knowledge but also been intimately involved in Hunter Biden’s business dealings,” read a committee press release. “The material released today further corroborates the previous testimony of IRS agents Joseph Ziegler and Gary Shapley highlighting the incredible level of access Hunter Biden and his business partners had in Joe Biden’s public office while working for foreign businesses.”
A message from Morris to a “Biden family accountant” stating that Hunter’s delinquent taxes posed a “considerable risk personally and politically” and needed to be reconciled was among the emails that were discovered.
