The IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley, who previously exposed alleged interference by the Justice Department in the Hunter Biden tax investigation, has been appointed to lead criminal investigations at the IRS. He emphasized evidence-driven decisions and adherence to procedures amid political pressures, particularly from the Trump administration. Shapley and fellow agent Joseph Ziegler, who co-authored a book on their whistleblowing efforts, faced retaliation after their disclosures. Despite challenges, Shapley remains committed to reforming the agency and supporting whistleblowers.
