The hypocrisy is strong in these Trump-hating Dems. The Treasury has released Highly confidential files to GOP Senators about Hunter Biden, and Dems are outraged as they feel that they were not given the same treatment during their attack on Trump. They also seem to be upset about the investigation into Hunter Biden in general, as it hurts their frontrunner. They appear to be more worried about getting rid of Trump than concerned about Biden’s involvement in what appears to be blatant corruption.
“The Treasury Department complied with a Republican-controlled Senate inquiry into Hunter Biden’s business dealings in Ukraine and handed over highly sensitive financial records and “evidence of questionable origin,” a report on Thursday said.
Hunter Biden, the son of former Vice President Joe Biden, has been a favorite target for President Trump and other Republicans who use him as an example of an extreme case of crony capitalism. He once held a $50,000-a-month job with Ukrainian gas giant, Burisima Holdings while his father served under then-President Obama. His father was tasked with handling Ukraine policy at the time.
Sens. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, and Ron. Johnson, R-Wisc., the chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, requested the records in the form of a suspicious activity report, also known as a SARs. They also requested financial records through FinCEN, which is a branch of the Treasury Department that eyes money laundering.
“Applying a blatant double standard, Trump administration agencies like the Treasury Department are rapidly complying with Senate Republican requests — no subpoenas necessary — and producing ‘evidence’ of questionable origin,” said a spokeswoman for Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon, the top Democrat on the Finance Committee. “The administration told House Democrats to go pound sand when their oversight authority was mandatory while voluntarily cooperating with the Senate Republicans’ sideshow at lightning speed.”
“It’s unfortunate that Democrats whom we’ve kept in the loop on our investigations would recklessly seek to interfere with legitimate government oversight,” a spokesman for Grassley said.”
The Dems talk about a cover-up and abuse of power, and then when presented what appears to be blatant corruption with the Biden family, they fall silent. I guess government corruption only matters to Dems when the GOP is accused.
Let this be the start of draining the swamp. After Biden (or during) let’s also investigate Hillary and Bill, Obama and the rest of the criminal democrat party. They would all look good in those orange jump suits.
Like the Dems said of Trump, if the Biden’s are not guilty they should only be too happy to clear their name. That was what they said, wasen’t it?
Joe actually broke laws. proof is in his telling the story on camera. Talk about a slam dunk. Well, not with our DOJoke.
What! Dump Quid Pro Joe? NEVER! The man is of the best Democrat integrity. He is a protective family man. Also a trusted Democrat spokesperson. He was even a life guard in his early career. Of course Bloomberg has money and connections with Epstein, a big money Democrat supporter.
Flip the scenario. Biden is a Republican, Would Trump rout out him as a criminal. I think, yes. He wants to drain the swamp. BTW, Biden would be a RINO.
I have had dealings with this piece of —- Wyden he hangs out with Antifa and wants our guns. This mutt gets our tax dollars for this.
I agree with you Dennis. Oregon protects Antifa.
They are afraid that if Biden goes down, they might be next. All Demorats are corrupt, and some RINO’s as well.
