information from Telizhenko, a former Ukrainian diplomat, because he claimed to have been tasked with digging up dirt on Trump’s 2016 campaign chairman, Paul Manafort.
Telizhenko said that another Ukrainian official who has helped Rudy Giuliani investigate the Bidens, a parliamentarian named Andrii Derkach, recently had his visa revoked. Derkach was a member of deposed President Viktor Yanukovych’s Party of Regions and has long pushed allegations about Ukrainian meddling in the 2016 U.S. election. Derkach did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The briefing also featured several back-and-forth interactions between senators, which is highly unusual for a top-secret briefing of this nature, according to a person briefed on it.
When a Republican doesn’t know what to do they attack the Democrats.
It’s politics. Nancy is string up yet another committee to investigate the Federal Government’s response to COVID19
GOP just knock it off...go out with with whatever dignity you might have left ...you've already lost your balls...biggly
Republican: synonymous with useless and senseless.
Yeah cause that’s the most important thing for our government to pay attention to right now
🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
It's all they got.
Didn’t MoscowMitch just complain the impeachment was a distraction?
Benghazi, Hillary’s emails, uranium one, Clinton foundation- never a shortage of Republican conspiracy theories.
Republicans attempting to undermine Biden while Drumpf kills Americans with incompetance. Remember this in November voters and clean house. It has been only about ten years since the last GOP gov't nearly destroyed our economy. When will we learn. Now they are killing us.
I guess this is because Republicans have only fooled the most foolish Americans into thinking Trump's impeachment was a hoax. The rest of us know Biden's son rode nepotism like a Trump, but had nothing to do with Trump's crooked act, but Rs want a chance to con the rest of us.
SenateGOP are the the poster boys and girls of what is wrong with this country.
Where’s Hunter?
The Republicans have nothing better to do. Being vindictive, at this juncture, is not going to help contain COVID-19. They are going to get staff in for this frivolous work. The staff should cautious the Senators of the danger of contracting the virus. Susan_Hennessey AliVelshi
GOP are enemies of freedom and American values. They are the enemy.
Because yeah, priorities.
Neither one of these guys knows when to pull out.
And what about the Tara Reade investigation? Drop out JoeBiden
The SenateGOP can eat shit. GOPCorruptionOverCountry
Won't MoscowMitch get distracted?
That’s a weird fucking headline, what does one have to do with the other?
God forbid the home grown almost terrorist members of congress try to help Americans during this pandemic vs trying to suck trumps yiu know what to get themselves hard.
Hope they look at potential insider trading by Sen Johnson. And Burr, Feinstein, Inhoffe, Loeffler if not others as well.
Benghazi pt II
Do Republicans know Jared Kushner? 🤔
The ComplicitCorruptGOP GOP should be investigated as well with jaredkushner in fairness. SenateDems HouseDemocrats need to investigate these dimwitted wankers! America is number one now on COVID19Pandemic & these republicunts action is irresponsible! TrumpMadness
hypocrites SOB Senators! senatemajldr realDonaldTrump Son-In-Law is killing Americans! He is totally unqualified to be in charge of this global pandemic! The only qualification he has is being the husband of POTUS darling! Crooked family! Nepotism and corruption.
BloatedPOTUS SO! And then, once Biden is president - guess what. ALL goes miraculously away. Just like we never... LockedHerUp BuiltAWall ReformedTheIRS etc. etc....
Pelosi and Schumer are pushing ahead their new agenda of a oversight committee against Trump! I guess things don’t change. Report real news we have a pandemic!
Because that's what's critical right now in the midst of the GOP induced mass carnage - another one of their fake investigations. The GOP and realDonaldTrump are OUT on November 3!
CORRUPT.
senatemajldr LindseyGrahamSC you should investigate realDonaldTrump murdering 6000 Americans ... shameful
What happened to Michael Bloomberg’s promise to go after Trumps kids? MikeBloomberg?
This is desperation and will amount to nothing.
…
Don't worry. In a year we'll be starting the investigations into Trumps kids.
Republicans need a red herring for November
GOPCorruptionOverCountry
Vote R
As well they should! And that's not all that's going on, Politico.
Both sides are calling for investigations, its ridiculous. Instead of putting their problems aside and coming together in a time of need, they all do this bs!
As they should! We have Pelosi and Schiff forming a committee to go against the President and his admin ... once again during this crisis. Where is that story? How dare they do this during a pandemic! You are so GD Biased! Pelosi has tried to f**k Trump over time after time.
Even the Senate can do two things at once
Well if we’re going to investigate all candidates familieswe should start with trumps. Oh yeah, we did and they couldn’t get clearance.
Ok. Full steam ahead on Trump’s sperm donations.
But it’s fine for Pelosi to start another witch hunt investigation Trump2020LandslideVictory
Wasting time and taxpayers money!!!! Work on getting masks, health protective gear, COVID-19 vaccine, domestic violence bill, stimulus package post corona, etc.
Blumberg needs to start his investigation into the trump children now
Good.
And then you have Jared and Ivanka....I don’t want to hear a single word about Hunter Biden. They’ve put Jared the grifter Slum lord Kushner in charge of the coronavirus task force; without a stitch of experienced qualifications; that’s nepotism at its finest. We are doomed.
Trump wants a high body count, it is obvious. How would a hostile foreign agent bent on maximizing American deaths have behaved any different than how Trump has? Why is he blocking medical aid to blue states? TrumpGenocide
Not sure how a committee investigation has anything to do with the pandemic. Those investigators (lawyers) weren't pulled away from inventing new treatments.
If you responded to this with anything other than 'good' you are beyond saving.
No one is above the Law, not even the Bidens. Let’s see what happened.
uh oh cornpop
woodruffbets Surely there are still some lingering questions on Benghazi.
woodruffbets Oh, it's just crazy Ron Johnson...Trump's favorite conspiracy spreader.
They can do Kushner, Ivanka, Don Jr and Eric at the same time.
GOP HouseGOP SenateGOP IvankaTrump jaredkushner
Look into those sexual harassment allegations made against Joe Biden.
Also SpeakerPelosi called to investigate the COVID19 presidents response team while the virus is still threatening the people of the USA to make them appear in front of committees and take them away for their job. TheyHateThePresidentMoreThanTheyLoveTheCountry
Idiot democRATS SpeakerPelosi RepAdamSchiff are wanting another investigation instead of helping during pandemic EnemyOfThePeople
'Democrats have said the investigation targeting Hunter Biden threatens the integrity of the 2020 election and undermines U.S. national security, saying it could aid Russian intelligence.'
Maybe investigate where the fucking PPE is
SenateGOP We the people would also like them to investigate Jared and Ivanka and all their business dealings, especially with MBS!
Can’t wait for the split screen with death rates on one side and partisan distraction on the other
Why doesn’t the miserable GOP-led Senate have any real work to do?
Good.
Really? We don't have people in the Senate that can go after what our country needs - competent organization to defeat a virus, and instead go on a witch hunt!
Weren’t they distracted because of impeachment? Doesn’t make any sense then to investigate anybody, they said so: if you can not perform two activities at the same time
Good news!!!!
senatemajldr says impeachment too much for realDonaldTrump & gop to handle & kept him from protecting America from COVID19...yet the Senate GOP had time during this crisis to investigate already debunked claims about Hunter Biden. AmericaSecondGOP GOPCorruptionOverCountry
Ukraine never had corruption until Hunter Biden got a legal gig, according to the GOP braintrust.
How about the investigations into the current president's grifting kids?
And when Joe takes over he can pardon his son who has done nothing compared to what the Trump Brats are doing. The first thing is fire anyone that works for the Trump Administration and then investigate the trumps and your business is and get his taxes and show the world.
GOP needs to be kicked outta senate .
Are SenateGOP scared SenateDems will take the senate in 2020Election ?
Let em use their resources to go nowhere. Better yet Put Nunes in charge😂😂😂
Three names for them: Don, Jr. Eric. Ivanka. And don’t forget Jared.
Netflix documentary is next. 🤔
Good!
GOP have the audacity to investigateJoeBiden and claim HunterBiden got a job because of his fathers connections. What are IvankaTrump doing in DC ? And what is jaredkushner doing at the podium talking about a pandemic ? Hypocrites ! realDonaldTrump
For the next distraction, the Republicans will form an investigation committee to indict Biden through his son. The chair of this committee will be Jared Kushner. The members shall be the rest Trump’s family. The goal of the special committee: stop profiting on nepotism.
The Abuse of Power Party. Trump weaponizes the Justice Dept while the GOP Senate weaponizes oversight.
And yet..., the idea of a committee being set up to look into why the handling of a pandemic went so horribly wrong and left so many Americans infected or dead..., the Republicans see as an immense waste of time and resources? Hhhmmm..., interesting...,
Consider if Bill Clinton were in Joe Biden shoes: Like Bidens scandal of thought in only fair to try Clintons' coy ploys chicanery to get per year yet that Clinton Fdn emoluments load as a per diem or per hour cash cow. EmolumentsClause also catches Clintons w/ 'no titles'!
This will fizzle and then we’ll investigate the trump spawn and the world will know that they are indeed grifters.
Scapegoating the former VP's son-who has never worked a day in the White House-is the GOP deflecting, diverting and distracting from Donald Trump's unprecedented corruption. Hunter Biden is the Uranium One of 2020. Period.
Oh yes that’s so great. Wtf. Work on legislation for more aid to bring our country back from this dark time
Right. This should really be our country's top priority. It's not as if there is anything else going on.
Fox needs content.
Really, this is the best use of their resources and time. Unbelievable
Ready for MikeBloomberg to keep his word. If they investigate Hunter Biden, he investigates tRumps kids.
Then we should investigate his children that are working in the White House and all the rest of his friends children that works there and had ZERO experience
But wait. Hasn't the GOP complained that now is no time for investigations?
They need a reason to justify their screw ups and inaction. They'll say they were too busy with persecuting Hunter Biden to give a damn about one of the biggest crisis in history. Millions sick and unemployed!
Well they better get then trump brats on the list as well.
Nice! 100s of Americans are dying everyday.
What does Biden corruption have to do with the Chinese Flu
Please do let me know when the investigation into trumps family begins.cant wait this shit is going to back fire big time.republicans are in a death spiral
dems are going to get absolutely annihilated in November because they had the foresight to put all their weight behind a candidate maybe somehow worse than Hillary
This is what republicans are doing behind the scenes as a deadly virus grips our country.trying to collect evidence on a presidential candidates son on the taxpayers dime on behalf of this dimwit joke
I hope they have the same energy for the Trumps when he leaves!
Nothing hunter Biden did could be one tenth as bad as trump or his family. They are wasting their time
Right after the president himself said in his presser yesterday that it was “no time for politics or more inquiries.” Why is it that I did not believe him?
Even asPelosi charters yet another investigative committee into realDonaldTrump and the Coronavirus. Ridiculous.
Lmao this senate is useless. Bought and paid for by Putin
This definitely deserves to be investigated. Ignoring it doesn't help the Democrats in the long-run.
No worries, hawkfish will be on the job soon.
I don't get it:
GOP desperately wants to distract from Trump's mismanagement of the coronavirus.
How about looking into those rape allegations instead?
I don't understand:
Everyone know GOP is playing a politics game against Biden.
What a waste of the taxpayers' money
Good....at least, now I won't vote for Hunter Biden. Joe Biden..yes! Hunter...no!
Then that committee had best look into Ivanka, the boys & Jared they been making millions. The three month WH failure to act on controlling this virus causing thousands of American deaths surely deserves this committee's attention.
Donald Trump was accused of rape by a 13-year-old girl who was one of Jeffrey Epstein's victims. She sued, a REPUBLICAN Cop 'ACCIDENTALLY' released her name, address, phone number, 1000's of Trumpeteers threatened to rape/murder her, she fled US
VOTE! Our lives depend on it!
Benghazi
The Trumpublicans are looking for a distraction to the epic Covid_19 fail ( on top of all the other fails). This is so blatantly partisan during what should be an all-hands-in-deck moment to get us through the multiple crises we face now. It will backfire on them.
If you are negatively portraying this article, I would assume you will portray Pelosi and Schiff's investigation into Trump's response on Covid-19 as negative as well? Anything less would show your bias!!! Media isn't biased is it?
Great news! Corruption should never be left unchallenged.
They really have nothing else to do, not sure that the fate of their fellow citizens interests them
And yet, there is no investigation of the Trump crime family
Not good GOP TrumpGenocide2020
So remind me how many of trumps family are on the WH payroll?
*sigh*
Former vice president’s son? Just drop it. You’re no Senate. Not a real one.
There's absolutely no reason why it should not. After all, the Dems have decided to launch yet another crusade of their own.
Where is the investigation on why South Korea succeeded in stopping this and US did not ? Buck stops where ?
Its only a world pandemic...guess they don't have anything else to do. Here's a suggestion..try washing the blood of American citizens off of your inept, corrupt hands. If you'd had some gumption we would have some real leadership instead we're stuck with you idiots.
Won't that distract the Republicans? You know, the way the impeachment distracted them from protecting Americans from this pandemic.
