Hunter Biden says how dare the IRS investigate me!
You almost got to admire Hunter Biden for being such a good demonstration of the old Jewish joke about the definition of chutzpah – the guy who murders his parents and says the court should be lenient with him because he’s an orphan.
No, Hunter didn’t murder Joe. But he does have the chutzpah to sue the IRS:
Hunter Biden’s attorneys filed a lawsuit against the IRS on Monday, alleging that agents have “targeted and sought to embarrass” the president’s son.
Biden’s Monday morning filing cites two major examples in IRS agents Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, two whistleblowers who claimed the IRS mishandled aspects of its investigation into Biden.
Biden’s lawsuit seeks for the court to declare that the IRS “willfully, knowingly, and/or by gross negligence, unlawfully disclosed Mr. Biden’s confidential tax information.”
It’s enough to make you root for the IRS.
More:
Shapley’s legal team responded to Biden’s lawsuit in a statement Monday morning, dismissing the move as a stalling tactic.
“This suit against the IRS is just another frivolous smear by Biden family attorneys trying to turn people’s attention away from Hunter Biden’s own legal problems and intimidate any current and future whistleblower,” Shapley’s attorneys wrote. “The federal judge in Delaware who oversaw the aborted plea deal shot down similar claims against the whistleblowers after they exposed the secret backroom deal between Hunter Biden and the Department of Justice. Neither IRS SSA Gary Shapley nor his attorneys have ever released any confidential taxpayer information except through whistleblower disclosures authorized by statute.
It’s also difficult to understand how Hunter Biden could be embarrassed at this point. He seems to act with no sense of shame, as far as I can see.
He may be ashamed of his father. Most people would be.
What I’ve learned, what I’ve been forced to learn against my will because I didn’t want to look, is that the Bidens are beyond shame. So are the Clintons. And by extension the Bushes. Who see nothing wrong with any of this. Who’d look at you with contempt if you had a problem with the corruption. So much of what is reported about Ashley Biden strikes me as true.
yep

He sued the IRS, not the FBI.
Humper Brandon is just a chip off the block, “The Big Guy,” Joe Brandon.
But will being the spawn of a wooden-headed completely corrupt con man be his undoing? Time will tell.))
FCC:
Thanks – yes, of course, I mention that in the body of the post. Title was a brain glitch; will fix.
“…He seems to act with no sense of shame…”
I guess a couple of decades of taking selfies of yourself smoking crack in a hot tub with a series of hookers can do that to you. Poor guy.
Feel free to delete my one of my comments. I had trouble posting it. I was told it was a duplicate but it, well eventually it went through
Hunter Biden has no shame because he was raised with no sense of shame. My devout Catholic father wouldn’t have enabled me in my addiction. Hunter Biden has no shame because an entitled arrogant senator never learned anything
The post still says “FBI” when it should be “IRS,” twice.
the chutzpah to sue the FBI:
enough to make you root for the FBI.
It irks me when I have to listen to a bunch of atheists bat the word God around like a ping pong ball
Abe Lowell is throwing up whatever he can to create white noise and hopefully something will stick. At least he is getting in a lot of billable hours.
Of course I don’t see much moral difference between the FBI and the IRS in general these days, but I hope Hunter loses this ridiculous lawsuit.
It doesn’t take me chutzpah when you’ve been raised to think you’re entitled to whatever you want.
Maybe I’m channeling Hunter’s next intention, which is to sue the FBI. Hey, sue all the alphabets!
I think I finally fixed the post now.
Maybe we’ll wake up tomorrow and see headlines about Hunter suing the FBI, and talk about your prescience.
Well his dad has been doing that for decades now so no surprise the son would do it as well.
Sue and settle would let Hunter, Weiss and Garland all off the hook wouldn’t it?
“FCC:

No problem, NPR.
NCC:
🙂
As I said, sue all the alphabets. Especially all the federal alphabets.
Better crooks than Hunter know not to provoke the IRS.

“It’s also difficult to understand how Hunter Biden could be embarrassed at this point. He seems to act with no sense of shame, as far as I can see.”
Shame is for the great unwashed… when last did a member of our ‘elite’ express shame over anything they have done? Hunter is inarguably a ‘chip off the old block”.
Whistleblowers make things public that perhaps aren’t supposed to be public in order to reveal wrongdoing. Don’t we have laws to protect whistleblowers from recriminations? As the article says:
Neither IRS SSA Gary Shapley nor his attorneys have ever released any confidential taxpayer information except through whistleblower disclosures authorized by statute.
But there’s much confusion about whistleblowers now. Maybe the “Facebook whistleblower” who went public with charges that Facebook wasn’t biased enough and wasn’t censoring enough is to blame. Today, only people who tell you what the authorities want you to know count as true whistleblowers.
“Hunter” is merely a figurehead in this imbroglio. He is being used by his father’s henchmen and the powers that are behind his father to distract from the evidence that Hunter was given a huge pass by the so-called “special prosecutor,” Weiss, on the millions of dollars in taxes he dodged when the statue of limitations on prosecution expired with the full knowledge and concurrence of the “prosecutors”. The reason the statute was allowed to expire was to protect the Biden family, from Joe on down to the grandchildren whose offshore accounts were stuffed with foreign cash in exchange for Joe’s favors. All of this is now being executed in a continuing effort to keep the lid on the facts in order to keep the cabal in power. I predict that the people currently in charge at the IRS will soon “admit” that, yes indeed, we sure treated Hunter bad, and in order to make up for that, we’re going to shut down any further investigation into the money trail. I hope I am wrong, but given the track record of other federal agencies, including FBI, CIA and the laughingly named “Justice Department,” I fear I am right.
Steve different Steve, I was intel but not the CIA type.
CIA can get l away with telling his boss whatever will advance his career inside the beltway. Me? Naval intelligence. If I’m wrong I’m swimming with everyone else

Hunter will get away with it he’s been protected his whole life
You don’t have to be smart to get away with it
They can track you down if you looked wrong at a traffic camera
Basically the Clinton era was just one giant era of suck my d**k. They were gloating in the fact they were beyond reach oh t he law.
I’m sorry for expressing myself this way
