The CIA gave a briefing to the Department of Justice in the summer of 2021 that prompted the department to shut down any pursuit of Hunter Biden’s lawyer and friend Kevin Morris, according to an affidavit published by Congress on Wednesday.

Whistleblower Gary Shapley, a senior IRS investigator, wrote in the affidavit that while he was working on the DOJ’s broader inquiry into Biden, he was unexpectedly told by a prosecutor that he could not use Morris as a witness.
