https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/hunter-biden-irs-agent-whistleblower-b2345259.htmlAn Internal Revenue Service criminal investigator who has accused Justice Department officials of slow-walking a long-running probe into President Joe Bidens son Hunters tax affairs has cut off communication with a key congressional committee amid questions about the veracity of his claims and his motivations for coming forward.
The special agent, Gary Shapley, is a veteran of the IRS criminal investigations department who on Thursday revealed his identity in an interview with CBS News.
Mr Shapley is set to give evidence in a closed session before the House Ways and Means Committee on Friday. That panel, which has jurisdiction over the IRS, is led by Representative Jason Smith, a Missouri Republican.
But even as he is poised to testify before the House panel, the 14-year IRS veteran has now cut off communication with the Senate Finance Committee, which oversees the Internal Revenue Service, after his attorney met with committee representatives.
Mr Shapley has also cancelled a scheduled interview with that committee, which is led by Democratic Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon.

He will speak to the House (Republican) but not the Senate (Democrat) Committees.
