CIA blocked feds from interviewing Hunter Biden’s ‘sugar brother’ Kevin Morris during five-year tax probe, whistleblower claims

The CIA ordered IRS investigators not to question the “sugar brother” who bailed out Hunter Biden with millions of dollars, a whistleblower claimed.

Kevin Morris loaned the president’s son at least $5 million, bought his artwork and made payments to Hunter’s ex-wife, Kathleen Buhle, as well as Lunden Roberts, the mother of his illegitimate daughter of four years.

But federal officials investigating the first son’s tax affairs were summoned to CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, and told that Morris was off-limits to them.

Today, House leaders charged with impeaching the president wrote to CIA Director William Burns to ask why.

“The information we recently received from the whistleblower appears to corroborate our concerns about the Justice Department’s deviations from the standard process for granting Hunter Biden preferential treatment,” said Oversight Chairman James Comer, and Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan.

Morris, 60, a Hollywood lawyer, was questioned by the committees on Jan. 18 and told them he began making payments to the Biden family after meeting Hunter in California at a political fundraiser end of 2019.

“I had a very tribal feeling about Hunter,” Morris told the committee.

“It’s a guy. I have brothers, he had a lot of problems.

“Basically, I found him to be a guy getting beat up in a – by a gang of people. And, you know, where we come from, you don’t let that happen. You walk in and you start swinging.

He admitted to flying Hunter around the country on his private jet and paying $875,000 for his art.

The payments lasted three years, and Morris visited the White House three times after Hunter’s father took office in January 2021.

Morris said he gave Hunter the money in part because he feared the recovering addict would relapse — which would harm his president father.

“I fear he’s relapsing every…yes, and every day since. And I think that’s the intention of people in the world to catch it.

“Because they know that having him relapse is the thing that will upset him the most, that will impact his father the most,” Morris said.

But in August 2021, CIA leaders told DOJ officials that the well-heeled lawyer “could not be a witness” in their investigation, the whistleblower claimed.

“It is unclear why or on what basis the CIA allegedly intervened to prevent investigators from interviewing Mr. Morris,” Comer and Jordan wrote in their Thursday letter.

“We are therefore writing to request relevant documents from the CIA.”

The payments came during a five-year, multi-agency investigation into whether Hunter evaded taxes on millions of dollars paid to him by companies in Ukraine, Russia and China.

IRS whistleblowers Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler told committees last year that DOJ leaders warned them against interviewing people close to the president.

“Every time we wanted to potentially ask questions about the president, we said, ‘This is going to take too many approvals.’ We can’t ask these questions,” Ziegler told the committee.

“And, I mean, it created a very difficult environment to manage.”

Last year, the DOJ offered Hunter a probation-only plea deal, which was rejected by the president’s son for failing to rule out future prosecution.

Special counsel David Weiss has since indicted Hunter on nine counts of tax fraud of $1.4 million, with a trial date set for June 20 in Los Angeles.

The House speakers demanded an explanation from CIA Director William Burns by April 4.

He also faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted of three counts related to lying about his drug use during a 2018 gun purchase.

Last month, Weiss released photos of Hunter’s iPhone and hard drive that prosecutors said were proof he was using cocaine when he purchased a gun.

But Hunter’s legal team says the DOJ mistook the sawdust for lines of cocaine during its investigation.

“Conflating sawdust with cocaine sounds more like a scenario from a 1980s Police Academy comedy than what one might expect in a high-profile prosecution by the department of Justice,” his lawyers said.

Hunter denies the drug charges and that trial is scheduled to begin in Delaware on June 3.
