The whistleblower in the Hunter Biden Internal Revenue Service investigation has revealed himself.
Speaking to CBS News, the whistleblower revealed himself as supervisory special agent Gary Shapley in the IRS's criminal investigations department. He is a 14-year veteran of the agency and is currently overseeing a 12-man team that specializes in international tax and financial crimes. He told the outlet that he began documenting his concerns about the Hunter Biden investigation in June 2020, five months after being assigned to the "sensitive" investigation.

"There were multiple steps that were slow-walked — were just completely not done — at the direction of the Department of Justice," Shapley said. "When I took control of this particular investigation, I immediately saw deviations from the normal process. It was way outside the norm of what I've experienced in the past."
"Each and every time, it seemed to always benefit the subject," he added. "It just got to that point where that switch was turned on. And I just couldn't silence my conscience anymore."
"For a couple years, we'd been noticing these deviations in the investigative process. And I just couldn't, you know, fathom that DOJ might be acting unethically on this," Shapley continued.
