Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show, your home for Open, Honest, and Provocative Conversations.

Hey everyone, I'm Megan Kelly. Welcome to the Megan Kelly Show.

0:15.0

Today we have an exclusive interview with the two IRS agents who testified yesterday on Capitol Hill about Biden,

0:24.0

family, tax issues, and about corruption and unethical conduct within the Department of Justice.

0:32.0

They are whistleblowers, and this is their first interview together.

0:36.0

And first interview since yesterday's bizarre hearing.

0:39.0

I mean, what the Democrats tried to do to these two guys was absolutely bizarre.

0:43.0

We'll get into all of it. Gary Shapley worked for the IRS for 14 years.

1:43.0

And for that matter, you know, the people who were in charge seemed to have been very pro-biden and anti-Trump right from the get go.

1:52.0

That's my editorial. Several of these Democrats bizarrely brought race into the discussion.

1:58.0

What? What does that have to do with anything?

2:01.0

But Shapley and Ziegler did not waver in their allegations, which include that they were told they could not pursue key warrants, search warrants involving Hunter Biden due to quote the optics of it.

2:11.0
