The Treasury Department turned over Hunter Biden’s confidential financial records to Republican senators despite refusing to release President Donald Trump’s tax returns as required by law.

Sens. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, and Ron Johnson, R-Wis., announced that they will investigate Biden, the son of former Vice President Joe Biden, and “his associates during the Obama administration” just one hour after the Senate voted to acquit Trump in an impeachment trial with no new witnesses or documents sparked by the president’s push to investigate his political rivals. There is no evidence nor credible allegations that either Hunter or Joe Biden did anything illegal.

The senators said the Senate Finance and Homeland Security Committees will investigate Biden’s work in China and Ukraine. They announced the investigation in a letter to Secret Service Director James Murray, asking for information about “the protective detail that Hunter Biden received while his father was Vice President,” as well as a “list of all dates and locations of travel, international and domestic, for Hunter Biden.”

A spokesperson for Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., the top Democrat on the Finance Committee, told Yahoo News, which first reported the story, that the Treasury Department had already complied with the Republicans’ request for documents related to Hunter Biden and Burisma, the Ukrainian gas firm as the heart of Trump’s conspiracy theories.

1. Does this surprise anyone?

Fascists generally run the government as their personal political arm.

2. I'm hopeful that this...

kind of stuff will be investigated and corrected when the dems take full control of congress and the executive branch....

3. I fear that the WH will be successful

in getting Biden out of the race. Whoever remains better have zero skeletons in their closet because the MF and company are coming for them hard.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

5. Then the Trump elder children are fair game as well.

Since Jared and Ivanka, Jr., and Eric are all PROFITING off the Presidency due to their name being TRUMP. Kushner is the new TRUMP.

[MontanaMama]

6. Oh for sure they're fair game!

I just wonder who will do the investigating and prosecuting with Barr running interference for them. Their grifting knows no bounds.

[OliverQ]

8. Yup. This is going to be the new emails scandal

and it's going to hurt.

4. They won't find anything unless they forge it.

[MontanaMama]

9. I believe you're correct.

The MF’s kids are guilty of WAY more than whatever they manufacture about Hunter Biden. I fear it won’t matter, however. I don’t trust the MSM to shut it down as a non-story. They’ll eat it up and regurgitate it over and over.

[greatauntoftriplets]

10. Their hypocrisy is mind boggling.

Nothing new, of course, but horrendous.

7. And a posted story yesterday

stated that Eric Trump was given a seat on the board of directors of a Russian Copper Company. Also,this same company bought 70k copies of Juniors book.

[flotsam]

11. Yes but he has experience dealing with copper

As a Trump he steals every fucking penny he sees.

[crickets]

12. *snort* Good one. nt

[spanone]

13. That's because republicans have declared don above the law.

so, what are they investigating him for?

this is what dictators do.

you can bet they will find something, even if they don't.

14. The orange anus got his headline. Mission accomplished

[a kennedy]

15. How was this allowed to happen??
