IRS whistleblower Joseph Ziegler corroborated an alleged bribe outlined in an FBI FD-1023 informant file that claims a Burisma Holdings executive bribed then-Vice President Joe Biden and Hunter Biden each with $5 million, records recently released by the House Ways and Means Committee show.
“RHB [Robert Hunter Biden] references $5 million in total from Burisma (which was referenced in the beginning of the board agreement), which I believe coincides with information on the FBI Form FD1023,” Ziegler wrote in an August affidavit.
The House Ways and Means Committee publicly disclosed the affidavit on September 28 after the committee voted to approve the release of a second tranche of documents from IRS whistleblowers.
