You don’t need the same olfactory skills as a hunting dog to know that something is rotten in the state of Delaware. The recent testimony from two IRS whistleblowers in the Oversight and Accountability Committee has exposed how the Department of Justice provided cover for the Biden family and obstructed the investigative efforts of both the IRS and FBI. When I travel across the 5th District, I speak with hardworking patriots who are downright infuriated with the two-tiered system of justice that has manifested itself under the Biden administration. I share their anger, and I’m working as hard as I can alongside my colleagues to expose the truth.
As a quick recap, the two IRS whistleblowers, Special Agent Joe Ziegler and Supervisory Special Agent Gary Shapley, were the ones who investigated Hunter Biden’s tax evasion on his $8.3 million in income. Special Agents Ziegler and Shapley testified that prosecutors assigned to Hunter Biden’s tax evasion case made the decision to slow walk the investigation by instituting “unnecessary approvals and roadblocks” that prevented timely requests for interviews, search warrants, and document requests. What’s more, on the day that investigators were set to interview Hunter Biden, the FBI notified both the Secret Service and the Biden transition team in advance. Investigators were then denied access to Hunter Biden’s residence and were sidelined from doing so until Hunter Biden contacted them directly. Does this sound normal to you?
The decision to run the clock out on this investigation by means of obstruction, on the part of prosecutors, raises many red flags and calls into question what political motives were at really at play. What evidence relating to Hunter Biden and the Biden family did the Department of Justice not want these two IRS whistleblowers to discover? Why was there a sharp deviation in operating procedure during this investigation – as noted by both Special Agents? In my line of questioning during the Oversight and Accountability Committee’s recent hearing, I laid out the case as to why there’s further evidence that must be brought to light, and why obstructionist tactics by the Department of Justice should be exposed to the fullest extent. The truth should be laid bare for everyone to see – and our investigative efforts will not cease until this is done.
The Schools Not Shelters Act
Recently, the House passed H.R. 3941, the Schools Not Shelters Act, legislation that sends a strong message to sanctuary states and cities that educational facilities should be used for educating students, not housing illegal aliens. Specifically, this legislation prohibits the use of the facilities of a public elementary school, a public secondary school, or an institution of higher education to provide shelter or housing for aliens who have not been admitted into the United States. It also reaffirms that academic success and safety of students should be our top priority. Here’s the bottom line: educational facilities should be used solely for educating – not housing illegal aliens and offering cover for the Biden administration’s glaring failures at our nation’s southern border.

My Latest Interview
On Wednesday, I joined Maria Bartiromo on Fox Business to discuss President Biden’s second attempt to pin a $1 trillion student loan tab on hardworking taxpayers. The Supreme Court’s ruling on student loans was a welcome victory that saved taxpayers over $300 billion. However, the Biden administration is working on an “end around” to the ruling that would still transfer billions more in student loan debt to taxpayers. Simply put, President Biden’s radical free college agenda is illegal, inflationary, and irresponsible.
