Yeah, I'm not holding my breath. Even if he did, Barr would likely do everything he could to deep-six it.
Apparently, the GOP doesn't think it needs investigating either.
The GOP controls the Senate.
It only takes a majority of a single committee to open a congressional investigation.
If the GOP actually wanted this investigated, there would be an investigation already.
Just food for thought, fwiw.
As I write this post, Rudy Giuliani is in Ukraine conducting filmed interviews with at least 5 of the scummiest and corrupt fired former prosecutors Ukraine has to offer. Rudy is putting together a "disinformation documentary" that will be shown on Trumps favorite One America News Network (OAN). He is also working with a conspiricist (Andrei Telizhenko) to dig for misspent US funds in Ukraine. Odd that Rudy has no plans to dig for any misspent US funds in Israel or Egypt. To add a cherry topping to this chuckle-cake, Rudy met with Telizhenko in the cigar-bar of the Premier Palace Hotel in Kyiv, which is owned by close Putin ally and Russian oligarch Alexander Babakov. The hotel is known as a den for Kremlin agents. (Babakov graduated from the KGB Academy in Soviet Russia).
I guess I'm missing the significance. If there is evidence that Biden was involved with corrupt acts in Ukraine then that should be investigated. I mean, presumed corrupt acts by Trump are being investigated and might impact the 2020 election, right?
Biden announced his corruption but we're all supposed to ignore that and look at the specious nonsense claimed about Trump. It was rather comical watching Quid Pro Joe come unglued at that campaign event in Iowa yesterday. Called the voter fat and old. I thought these libs were all against that sort of thing. Kudos to the 83 year old voter for calling out this corrupt political fossil and big mouth.
Trump_DoJ and the Senate can start investigating whenever they decide it's a good idea.The Biden situation was, without question, a matter of concern along those lines. Yovanovitch testified that the Obama State Department had prepped her SPECIFICALLY on that situation. That the Obama administration chose not to investigate it should not preclude the Trump administration from doing so when they had the opportunity.
I thought this was about getting information from Ukraine.It's not about "dirt". The information regarding the Bidens in Ukraine was public knowledge. If Trump wanted "dirt" he could have cited Politico or one of the others outlets that wrote about the issue. If, however, he wanted to see if Zelensky was really going to stand by his campaign promises it was a good place go.
Democrats basically don't even think the people who choose not to support them are human. That's why they refer to us as "deplorables" and "trumpettes" and such. Basically, as far as Democrats are concerned you're either with them or you're against them and if you're against them then there is nothing beyond the pale they can do to insure that your vote doesn't go to someone else.

Exactly. They have a barely concealed, visceral hate for anyone who questions their sketchy claims, half baked ideas and arrogant air of superiority. They get extremely upset contemplating that there are millions and millions of people out there whom they haven't been able to brainwash and who see right through their dangerous policies and bald faced power seeking. Next November ought to be a great show. I can hear the primal screams already.:mrgreen:
Any chance you can give us a brief description of the opinion in the article? Sites with a paywall are rather difficult to access for those of us that don't really feel like subscribing to that site, and without context it's a bit of a challenge to properly discuss whatever issue it is you have in mind.

? We all watched trump ask russia for help in 2016, russia if you're listening. Then he went on tv and asked the ukraine to investigate the bidens and if that wasn't enough he then asked china to investigate the bidens and you say presumed corrupt acts by trump.
On the other hand a rumor started by russia about the bidens absolutely deserves to be looked into according to folks on the right. Sad.

Rudy meeting with Andrii Derkach in Kyiv.
In 1993, Derkach graduated with a law degree from the Academy of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation (KGB/FSB) in Moscow.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize Giuliani is engaging with known corrupt individuals and pro-Russia agents.
I love you guys. Trump needs to be investigated for anything that he might have so much as thought of doing but Biden is to get a free pass even when his own people have expressed concern over a given situation. "I'll have a standard. In fact, make it a double!"
Trump_DoJ and the Senate are "ignoring" Biden's "corruption" and have been ignoring it for years now.
How do you reconcile that
1. This alleged corruption never concerned the GOP until Biden announced his candidacy with polls showing that he could defeat Trump?
2. Trump wanted it publicly announced, which would tip-off those being investigated?
3. He Insisted that a country he feels is too corrupt to receive foreign aid should investigate a US citizen?
It doesn't add up to anything more than a sham to aid Trump's re-election campaign.
Because he clearly tried to force a country to corrupt our electoral process, after inviting one to do it in the last election.
You guys place tyranny over democracy. You have earned any scorn that you are feeling.

Also, the US has no jurisdiction to investigate goings on in Ukraine concerning Biden. The Ukrainians rightly have to do that and that is all that Trump requested.

I do enjoy watching this lying PoS dig his hole deeper.
