Reports that whistleblower testimony may contradict a pledge from Attorney General Merrick Garland that Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss could investigate Hunter Biden unimpeded by main justice, one of the top lawman’s predecessors called for select prosecutors to be hauled before Congress.
Matthew Whitaker, a former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Iowa who served as acting attorney general under President Donald Trump, suggested testimony from prosecutors in Washington and Los Angeles may be key to ascertaining the truth in regard to Weiss’ abilities.
On “Hannity,” host Sean Hannity said reports that Weiss was denied the ability to prosecute Hunter Biden in the District of Columbia and Central District of California had the potential to mean Garland perjured himself when he claimed no interference.
“Yeah, it would be. Sean. But I also know how the Department of Justice works and Merrick Garland is being kept in the dark by a lot of this,” Whitaker replied.
