Revelations have emerged regarding restrictions imposed by the Department of Justice (DOJ) on a former official testifying before Congress about the authority of top Hunter Biden prosecutor David Weiss. Lesley Wolf, former Assistant U.S. Attorney for the District of Delaware, testified before the House Judiciary Committee on December 14, but was explicitly prohibited from discussing the intricacies of Weiss’ charging authority in the Hunter Biden case.
During Wolf’s testimony, she was asked about Weiss’ charging authority, to which she responded, “I am not authorized to speak on the particulars of any ongoing matter.” The limitations on her testimony drew attention, with Wolf indicating that she lacked authorization to discuss the details of Weiss’ authority.
At the heart of the matter is the controversy surrounding Weiss’ charging authority, which gained traction following whistleblower allegations suggesting that analysts were enticed with financial incentives to manipulate their conclusions in the Hunter Biden case. The situation took an unexpected turn as Wolf, a former DOJ official, declined to provide specific details.
In October, Acting Deputy Assistant Attorney General Stuart Goldberg testified that the DOJ Tax Division had approval authority over Weiss’ investigative steps and any potential tax charges in the Hunter Biden case. The testimony of IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler, accusing DOJ officials, including Wolf, of providing preferential treatment to Hunter Biden, has added fuel to the controversy.
