Do you expect a day to day tick tock of what the IRS was doing in their investigation ? Do you think that Barr, Wray & Rettig should have demanded evidence & indictments before the investigators built a case that would support them ?
Build a case that would support them? Are you telling me that Barr launched a joint IRS-DoJ investigation into Hunter Biden WITHOUT all the probable cause already in place?
This wasn't a murder investigation, OS. It was an idiot who didn't file taxes for two years. Add in a quick google search, you'd find a AP Story from 2014 that States...
WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Vice President Joe Biden’s visit Saturday to support Ukraine’s fragile democracy came soon after his youngest son was hired by a private Ukrainian company that promotes energy independence from Moscow.
Yet that company leases natural gas fields in the breakaway Russian-backed state of Crimea and is owned by a former government minister with ties to Ukraine’s ousted pro-Russian president.
The hiring of Hunter Biden, 44, by Burisma Holdings Limited in April was approved by the company’s owner, a former senior minister and political ally of Viktor Yanukovych, the exiled Ukrainian president.

So you're telling me after seeing he got that job that was announced to the entire planet....and didn't file taxes for two years....the IRS doesn't have probable cause to pull his bank records? Buffalo Bagels.
Riddle me this: if there was no probable cause to investigate....why was this massive investigation moved to Bill Barr's control in 2019?

Do you think the IRS had nothing to investigate before the warrants they requested in Apr 2020 ?
Great. Tell me what they were doing. How do you investigate and prove tax fraud without examining the accused's financial records?
But let's pretend you think this makes sense for a moment. If the IRS and DoJ didn't even get a look at Hunter's finances until summer/fall of 2020....now it makes sense that it took another two years to indict. Because the investigation didn't REALLY begin until they had a look at Hunter's finances.
And you, naturally, don't want to think about anything that ruins your conclusion that this is a conspiracy of the highest order.
And remember this post:

It's not just influence peddling. How did it impact our foreign policy when Biden was VP then President ?
What about FARA, compared to Manafort, Gates, Craig & Flynn ?
If you're REALLY worried about this.....why the F are you giving the IRS and DoJ a pass for taking so freaking long just to pull warrants and look at financial records......that three years later, Joe Biden was now in office?
You honestly don't see the problem here, OS? What if there WERE financial ties between Hunter and Joe and Ukraine. And the IRS and DoJ diddled around so long that Joe is now in office. That's a pretty bad outcome for America, don't you think?
It's makes ZERO sense that you're defending this, OS.
