| [JustTheNews] When then-Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss sought to bring charges in D.C., Graves declined to partner with him on the case. Matthew Graves, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia whose name surfaced in testimony by IRS whistleblowers about political interference in the Hunter Biden tax case, will resign in early January, the Department of Justice confirmed Monday. “Serving as the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia has been the honor of a lifetime,” Graves said. “I am deeply thankful to Congresswoman Holmes Norton for recommending me; to President Biden for nominating me; and to Attorney General Garland for placing his trust in me.” Graves featured in the testimony of whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, the IRS agents who went public about alleged political interference by Biden-appointed officials in the Hunter Biden tax probe. When then-Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss sought to bring charges in D.C., Graves declined to partner with him on the case, according to the whistleblowers' testimony. That declination was among the key points the whistleblowers addressed in contradicting Attorney General Merrick Garland's statements that Weiss had full authority to pursue charges against Biden. Graves's declination prevented the investigators from pursuing charges related to the 2014 and 2015 tax years, when Biden was on the board of the Ukrainian gas firm Burisma.

| #1 Graves is a chief practitioner of the two tiered justice system. Hopefully, Harmeet will knit him a beanie and send him a subpoena. |
