IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley confirmed Wednesday that U.S. Attorney for D.C. Matthew Graves, who donated to President Biden's 2020 presidential campaign, "refused to bring charges" against Hunter Biden for tax evasion.
"The Justice Department allowed the president's political appointees to weigh in on whether to charge the president's son," Shapley said during the heated House Oversight Committee hearing looking into allegations the Department of Justice politically interfered with an investigation into Hunter Biden.
"After U.S. Attorney for D.C. Matthew Graves, appointed by President Biden, refused to bring charges in March 2022, I watched U.S. Attorney [David] Weiss tell a room full of senior FBI and IRS senior leaders on October 7, 2022, that he was not the deciding person on whether charges were filed," he added.
According to Federal Election Commission records first reported by the Daily Caller, U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves, donated to Biden's 2020 campaign while working at law firm DLA Piper prior to his nomination and confirmation to the position in 2021.
The donations, totaling $1,500, were given in April 2020 and May 2020 during the Democratic presidential primaries.
The White House did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
