The White House have also said that the transcript they released is edited

On Tuesday night it was announced that theSpeaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said:"The actions of the Trump presidency revealed dishonourable facts of the president's betrayal of his oath of office, betrayal of national security and betrayal of the integrity of our elections."

Since then, The White House have released an edited transcript of Trump's conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. “There’s a lot of talk about Biden’s son, that Biden stopped the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that, so whatever you can do with the Attorney General would be great,” Trump is said to have told Zelensky.

“Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution so if you can look into it… It sounds horrible to me.” Although it does confirm that the conversation did take place, it does not offer a great deal of new information, especially given the fact that the conversation quoted in the transcript is not verbatim.

Trump put 'no pressure' on Ukraine to investigate BidenUS President Donald Trump has swatted away mounting pressure from Democrats demanding his impeachment, rejecting accusations he had offered aid to Ukraine only if it investigated his political rival Joe Biden. Your article states “after his first full day at the United Nations General Assembly” He only stayed for 15 minutes!!! Please amend the discrepancy. It’s a shame he’s already admitted it on camera. Twice...

Transcript confirms Trump asked for Biden investigationA summary of the transcript of a telephone call between Donald Trump and Ukraine leader Volodymyr Zelenskiy confirms the US president did ask him to investigate Democrat Joe Biden. Holy crap. He wasn’t just trying to get them to make up dirt on Biden. He was also trying to get them to make it looks like Mueller’s investigation was wrong 😂 Why did he release this?! It makes him look even worse than the worst anyone thought!
