    what was even more hilarious was claiming CNN left off the hyphen when in fact it was an apostrophe he used. Bad spelling and bad grammar. He claims he was at the top of his class at Wharton College and has a big brain. He's obviously mistaken his mouth for a brain.

    Ah the dems are just using this as convenience to chuck Biden under the Bus. Heck, they know he was never going to win against Trump.
    They want a Socialist candidate, not that she can win, but to fire up the house voters with hope of never never land and perhaps hold the house as she loses to the indomitable Trump

    News flash, we took back the house in 2018.

    News flash, house voters are everyone, so if you fire up house voters, you've fired up presidential voters as well.

    Yep. And he is on the ballot this time. Perhaps for a clean sweep. Both houses, possible even a super majority Senate.

    You are setting yourself up for a big disappointment if that's what you think is going to happen.

    I agree 100%.

    Their constituents support Trump and would vote them out if they knew.

    We call them the swamp.

    The turnover is called draining the swamp, and it's very effective.

    The unfilled positions are being stalled by Dems, at the expense of taxpayers.

    Former Ukraine Prime Minister says country must investigate Hunter Biden

    A former Prime Minister of Ukraine has said that authorities in that country must investigate Joe Biden’s son Hunter to establish whether or not his role on the board of a Ukrainian gas company complied with the nation’s laws.

    "It should be investigated so that the 'i's can be dotted and the 't's crossed," Mykola Azarov told Reuters Saturday, adding: "If he [Hunter Biden] was simply on the books and getting money, then that could be seen as a violation of the law."

    Burisma reportedly paid Hunter Biden up to $50,000 to sit on its board at the same time as his father was leading the Obama administration's diplomatic dealings with Kyiv, and a second private equity firm founded by the younger Biden received $3.4 million from the same company. Trump and Giuliani have alleged that when Ukrainian prosecutors tried to investigate Burisma Holdings for corruption, then-Vice President Biden pressured the government to fire the head prosecutor.

    Ukraine’s National Anti-Corruption Bureau said Friday it would investigate Burisma Holdings from 2010 to 2012, but Biden did not sign on until 2014. Biden was a director on Burisma’s board from 2014 until at least 2018. Burisma has faced accusations of tax dodging and improperly securing licenses for gas deposits.

    On Friday, the head of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office said in a radio interview that neither Joe nor Hunter Biden was the subjects of any investigation. Nazar Kholodnitskiy said in the radio interview that the earlier investigation of Burisma was closed for lack of evidence in 2017, but a court in the Ukrainian capital overruled the move the following year. Despite the court's ruling, the case has remained on hold and the investigation has stalled.

    He emphasized that there was no mention of Biden or his son in the Burisma case, which was focused broadly to look into alleged abuse of power by officials in Ukraine's Ministry of Ecology.

    "As of now, there is nothing there," he said. "If it comes up, measures will be taken to check the information."

    uh, no. It's called keep firing people and having people quit because trump wants only yes men and those that will protect him at all costs. Bill Barr is the biggest joke as he acts like he's the personal lawyer for trump. If this was the Obama administration you would be crying bloody murder. Open your fucking eyes for once and quit being a trump puppet.

    I bet Bill & Hillary are a bit nervous about all the investigations going on with U1 and other crooked politicians.
    Guys like Trump are easy to guess on but the Clinton machine has been a crooked pay for play for a long time.
    Just follow the money. I glad all this crap is coming out because American Politics has been a pay for play nation for some time.
