Speaker McCarthy Calls on US Attorney David Weiss to Testify on Whistleblower Report Weiss Was Blocked from Pursuing Hunter Biden Charges
Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) called on Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss to testify before the House Judiciary Committee on allegations made by an IRS whistleblower that Weiss told a meeting of investigators that he was being blocked from pursuing charges in the Hunter Biden investigation. McCarthy said if the allegations are proven true they will be part of an impeachment inquiry into Attorney General Merrick Garland’s “weaponization of DOJ” (The Department of Justice.)

The whistleblower, Gary Shapley, memorialized the staff meeting with Weiss in an email and gave the names of those in the meeting to House Way and Means Committee investigators.
Weiss and Attorney General Merrick Garland have denied that Weiss was blocked from pursuing charges against Hunter Biden and that Weiss asked to be appointed special counsel.
