Government Corruption

Federal prosecutor Lesley Wolf who led criminal probe into Hunter Biden is silenced by DOJ from sharing information with congressional investigators

2023-12-22

The revelation comes from the transcript of ex-Delaware federal prosecutor Lesley Wolf’s interview with Rep. Jim Jordan's House Judiciary Committee

IRS whistleblowers pointed the finger at Wolf for allegedly shutting down leads in the criminal probe that involved President Joe Biden

When asked by Judiciary Committee staff about the allegations, Wolf said she was ‘not authorized’ to respond and ‘unable to answer’

"What is the point of Congress having oversight if bureaucrats can show up and refuse to answer questions by order of the bureaucracies in question? That is not a viable oversight system. It is simply a facade that leads to no meaningful accountability at all."

" The former federal prosecutor who allegedly shielded President Biden and his son Hunter during a criminal investigation testified 79 times to Congress that she was “not authorized” by the Justice Department to answer questions about the case, according to a transcript reviewed by The Post.

Former Delaware Assistant US Attorney Lesley Wolf repeatedly cited a five-page authorization letter from Associate Deputy Attorney General Bradley Weinsheimer as she refused to answer questions during a House Judiciary Committee deposition last week.

Weinsheimer’s Dec. 12 letter, also reviewed by The Post, says: “[T]he Department generally does not authorize congressional testimony from line-level personnel, especially relating to an ongoing investigation with charges pending in court. The Department has declined to do so in connection with this matter.”

"Of note is that Wolf does not even work for the Department of Justice any longer. Despite that, she brought a letter from her former employer saying she was "not authorized" to answer any specific questions dealing with the matter. "

#2 ^Somehow, the thought that - in the fullness of time - China & Russia will eat Globalists/Islamists without salt, is a small consolation.
