An IRS whistleblower who worked on the Hunter Biden criminal case revealed himself in dramatic fashion Wednesday at the start of a congressional hearing.

Joseph Ziegler, formerly known as Whistleblower X, stepped out of the shadows and joined his colleague Gary Shapley at a House Oversight Committee hearing. They testified that Hunter Biden was given special treatment and the lead federal prosecutor, David Weiss, was blocked from charging the president’s son with more serious crimes. Weiss has denied those allegations.
