Steve Balich editors Note: If you don’t believe we live in a time that is the beginning of a dictatorship you must not be paying attention. Why would you get put in jail for destroying evidence like Hilary or Lying to congress like the Media, FBI, CIA, DOJ, or Homeland security? Its simple the leadership of these organizations work for the party in power. I want to trust our justice system but this system protects certain people and groups while going after their perceived enemies. Those in power will do what is in their power to destroy all commers that attempt to take their power like Trump and “Make America Great Again” Republicans. Buckle up your seat belts because we are in for a bumpy ride.

Two Internal Revenue Service whistleblowers implicated Attorney General Merrick Garland and IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel in perjury with their testimony before the House Ways and Means Committee, two Republicans on the committee told the Daily Caller.
Gary Shapley and another whistleblower both testified before Ways and Means Committee attorneys for more than seven hours, Republican Reps. Kevin Hern of Oklahoma and Greg Murphy of North Carolina told the Daily Caller. The members emphasized that the testimony implicates both Garland and IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel in lying to Congress about political interference in the Biden probe. Ways and Means voted Thursday in a closed-door hearing to release their transcripts.
Both congressmen emphasized the credibility of the whistleblowers, with Hern noting that they were questioned by both Republican and Democrat committee attorneys.
“Whistleblower One’s story was corroborated by Whistleblower Two,” the Oklahoman said.
“One individual came forward and laid out the full case of what’s going on. The second individual, through his attorney, asked Ways and Means to contact him and ask for testimony. So we didn’t seek these, they sought us,” Murphy added.
Shapley oversaw the agency’s tax investigation into Hunter Biden, which is expected to culminate in the president’s son pleading guilty to two misdemeanors. An investigator at the IRS for more than a decade, Shapley came forward to allege that the IRS violated normal investigatory protocols in ways that benefited Biden.
Shapley’s letter to Congress accuses Attorney General Merrick Garland of lying to Congress when he asserted that investigations into Biden would go on without political interference. Garland denied the charge. Werfel testified to Ways and Means in April and promised that whistleblowers would not be retaliated against. The second whistleblower alleged in his interview that he was retaliated against as early as October 2022.
“That’s an absolute lie. That’s an absolute lie. He perjured himself before Congress,” Murphy said of Garland.
