White House Hints at U.S. Probe of Biden
October 3, 2019 at 3:01 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard


The White House sent out its general-public newsletter “with a very conspicuous line buried in a series of talking points on the rapidly escalating scandal that has President Trump on the verge of an impeachment vote,” the Daily Beast reports.

From the newsletter: “This year, President Trump has asked Ukraine to fully cooperate with the Justice Department’s investigation into the actions of former Vice President Joe Biden and his family in Ukraine.”

“No such investigation into the Bidens has been publicly announced, and neither the DOJ nor the White House responded to inquiries about the statement. But then, at some point… the version on the White House website was quietly edited. It now says that the president ‘has asked Ukraine to fully cooperate with any Justice Department investigation into the actions of former Vice President Joe Biden and his family in Ukraine.'”

Russia? He says this to start a fight with knowing he's got damming stuff all ready to go. He's done this before, and will again.

But he keeps testing his boundaries. If he follows through with this he
is bound to fail and he will look like even more of a jerk than he is now.
