US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agent Joseph Ziegler, who was known only as "Whistleblower X" in the Hunter Biden tax case prior to his testimony at the House Oversight Committee last Wednesday, said that some of the alleged tax evasion schemes in which Hunter Biden reportedly engaged in were detailed in his 2021 work, "Beautiful Things: A Memoir."As per Ziegler, the opus showed that some of the expenses described by Hunter were for personal choices and not corporate benefit.The whistleblower said he and IRS supervisory agent Gary Shapley, also known as the first IRS whistleblower in Hunter Biden's case, are gathering more documents to provide to Congress. The trove reportedly includes WhatsApp messages in addition to the one made public from 2017 in which Hunter invoked his father's name to force his Chinese associate into forking out large sums of money.The whistleblower said there is evidence of US President Joe Biden’s association in the Hunter tax case. Earlier, the president repeatedly denied being related to his son's business dealing or knowing anything about them. Ziegler told the media outlet that a family friend named Rob Walker told the FBI that then-Vice President Joe Biden attended a meeting with the Chinese executives, and that his son deducted as a business expense a hotel room in father's name.Ziegler highlighted his team was prevented from finding out whether Joe Biden actually used the room or was present at the hotel. "But what I think it's important to know is that that was a deduction that was taken on Hunter's tax return," he said.In June, the younger Biden struck a plea deal with federal prosecutors on two minor tax crimes and a gun case. However, Republican congressmen said they are determined to get to the bottom of Hunter's alleged crimes. Last week, House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer said he expects to file "between six and 10 criminal referrals" with the Justice Department related to Hunter after the congressional probe is completed.

Self-Harm: Hunter Biden's Memoir Became Source of Tax Evasion Evidence
18:42 GMT 25.07.2023 (Updated: 14:45 GMT 20.09.2023) A memoir written by US President Joe Biden's son turned out to be a trap, as it shed some light on his alleged tax crimes, per one of the IRS whistleblowers.
US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agent Joseph Ziegler, who was known only as
"Whistleblower X" in the Hunter Biden tax case prior to his testimony at the House Oversight Committee last Wednesday, said that some of the alleged tax evasion schemes in which Hunter Biden reportedly engaged in were detailed in his 2021 work,
"Beautiful Things: A Memoir." As per Ziegler, the opus showed that some of the expenses described by Hunter were for personal choices and not corporate benefit.
"That's almost the biggest component of this that I don't think that the general public understands: You have statements being made in a book that are talking about going out to California, leaving your life and then going to start this new life. Yet, on your tax return you're essentially stating things that are completely different," Ziegler told the John Solomon Reports podcast.
The whistleblower said he and IRS supervisory agent Gary Shapley, also known as the first IRS whistleblower in Hunter Biden's case, are gathering more documents to provide to Congress. The trove reportedly includes WhatsApp messages in addition to the one made public from 2017 in which Hunter invoked his father's name to force his Chinese associate
into forking out large sums of money.
The whistleblower said there is evidence of US President
Joe Biden’s association in the Hunter tax case. Earlier, the president repeatedly denied being related to his son's business dealing or knowing anything about them. Ziegler told the media outlet that a family friend named Rob Walker told the FBI that then-Vice President Joe Biden attended a meeting with the Chinese executives, and that his son deducted as a business expense a hotel room in father's name.
Ziegler highlighted his team was prevented from finding out whether Joe Biden actually used the room or was present at the hotel. "But what I think it's important to know is that that was a deduction that was taken on Hunter's tax return," he said.
Moreover, per the whistleblower, IRS agents saw evidence that the first son was engaged in tax evasion that "stretched back two decades." "In my transcript, I talked about certain issues that Hunter had, I think, going back to the early 2000s," he said.
In June, the younger Biden struck a plea deal with federal prosecutors on two minor tax crimes and a gun case. However, Republican congressmen said they are determined to get to the bottom of Hunter's alleged crimes. Last week, House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer said he expects to file "
between six and 10 criminal referrals" with the Justice Department related to Hunter after the congressional probe is completed.
"[Hunter Biden] was money laundering. He was racketeering. He committed wire fraud. He violated the Mann Act. The list goes on and on and on," Comer alleged.
