Transcript Shows Trump Asked Ukrainian Counterpart to Probe Joe Biden’s Son

WASHINGTON—President Trump asked his Ukrainian counterpart, Volodymyr Zelensky, to “look into” former Vice President Joe Biden’s son and said he would direct his personal lawyer and attorney general to reach out to Mr. Zelensky to “get to the bottom of it,” according to a transcript of a July phone call released by the White House.

The transcript also showed that Mr. Trump, before asking Ukraine to examine actions by Mr. Biden’s son, reminded Mr. Zelensky that the U.S. sends security aid to Ukraine. “I will say that we do...

If it walks like a duck, acts like a duck and quacks like a duck. ITS A DUCK! America.

Wrong

And republicans look to the future and start hedging their bets. MoscowMitch and dandy boy Lindsey gambled and lost...hahaha

WTAF, are you people owned by Fox News? How do you write an entire article about the call notes and not once mention Trump expressing dissatisfation with the Ukranian President that benefits from the relationship weren't 'reciprocal' ... effectively a quid/quo imbalance?

But but but I thought POTUS demanded a JoeBiden investigation 8 times? Isn't that what you reported as fact?

Pressed vs Asked seems to want it both ways without considering that the alleged presser says there was no pressing. FakeNews Dumbasses

Democrats say nobody is above the law! What about Hillary, Comey, Obama? Americans are not stupid!

based off ?

So that’s here say

Yet Adam Schift is on TV saying the opposite it is just incredible! Americans please don’t vote Democratic this year! the Democrats party is nothing but a den of lying, cheating,manipulating & people! RepAdamSchiff liar!

ROTFL. Rupert's pet president The Grand Cheezel has done it again.

Wrong. Democrats have mud on their faces ONCE AGAIN. If this was Obama you Liberals would be praising him for getting to the bottom of interference in our elections & you know it. Sore losers since crooked Hillary lost. That’s all this is. Get over it! Trump WILL be re-elected.

Will the real wsj comeback,America misses you! EnemyOfThePeople

stop calling it a f-ing transcript & man up it's a memorandum at best, PulpFiction in reality

Meaning of all this - No offense whatsoever. Your site would get so much more support if you’d just tell it like it is.

Asking for a favor to look into the Biden’s is all that’s needed, not an explicit link. Jesus....TRY to be a legit news source on this.

He went on and on about how the US has been so generous and amazing to Ukraine. And how others have fallen short. I think that is fairly explicit.

The link is mafia-style explicit. It’s clear.

So it was nothing, and everyone is left here knowing that Biden is on tape bragging about getting a Ukraine prosecutor fired by playing god with their foreign aid. Yikes.

More democrat smoke an mirrors... They're all still butt hurt that their crowned queen didn't receive a majority of electoral votes. TDS is real.

Except the fact you don't need an explicit link for this kind of criminal behaviour

Trump altered a weather map with a Sharpie to try to prove he was right-releases a 5-page, incriminating, redacted version of a 30 minute phone conversation that shows him asking a foreign government to investigate a political rival - just after they asked about missiles=no link?

You are misrepresenting this as a transcription, it’s not ,it is a memo! Congressional investigators need a tape! Trump can not be trusted as per hurricane map!!UkraineTranscript

“He doesn’t give you questions, he doesn’t give you orders,” Cohen said. “He speaks in a code, and I understand the code because I’ve been around him for a decade.”

you are terrible. No, really.

But certainly made an implicit link to U.S. aid. To paraphrase: Ukraine President- “We’d like to buy more US military equipment.” .... Trump- “I’d like you to do me a favor THOUGH.”

Pay back is hell isn't it. Dem's feel it's okay for them to dig up dirt on Trump but it's not Okay for Trump to dig up their dirt.

Non-story from Lefty, AGAIN! Just hounding POTUS because they lost the election.

This transcript looks very bad... ... for Joe Biden

Joe Biden’s behavior as VP in Ukraine representing America is Fair Game. This is not Joe Biden running a Beauty Pageant on his own time & Money. Did Democrats participate in Ukraine corruption & did any of them Profit?

And so what.

Are you serious? Thank God WSJ has Strassel to bail the ‘news’ side out.

He withheld aid the week before and spent 30 minutes asking the Ukrainian President to investigate his biggest rival . . . “Do us a favor”. You don’t speak Mafia, do you?

NOT. A. TRANSCRIPT! ITS A SUMMARY MEMO!

You guys are really in it to win it on this one, aren't you?

Do us a favor...[and] we do a lot for you. Explicit enough. Bad enough a president would ask a foreign government go after an American citizen, but this is 'do us a favor...] and go after my political rival. And work with my A.G please

Biden and his son in a scandal President Trump wants at to investigate. Spin the story the way you want.

Lol, sure... And it is still an impeachable offense to ask a foreign country to conduct an investigation for the purpose of harming a political opponent & influencing a presidential election.

An actual accurate headline for a change

Immediately after Zelenskyy mentions defense aid..... 'I would like you to do us a favor though' Quid pro quo. Impeach 🍑

Stop the misinformation. Nothing like that happened.. Read it again.

He did, actually. Asking for a 'favor' was the first thing he said after Zelensky thanked the US for military aid.

good lord do better WSJ Of note at the bottom of the first page: 'CAUTION: A Memorandum of a Telephone Conversation (TELCON) is not a verbatim transcript of a discussion ... A number of factors can affect the accuracy of the record.'

He didn’t have to. Asking a foreign govt to investigate a political opponent is quite enough. And let’s not offend the implication wasn’t there for all to see.

I want to see the whistle blowers report, there is way more to this than just this transcript. Trump is trying to do what he did with the Mueller Report, shift the narrative to what he wants people to hear. I want to know what the 'multiple acts' are.

Not a transcript. More like a translation.

I think 'Do Me a favor' is a pretty explicit quid. should read the transcript before attempting to defend Trump.

Trump Jr hunts endangered Elephants and lions why haven’t we arrested Trumps son for killing endangered species

Read the whole transcript. He did nothing wrong 🤷‍♂️ was actually a great chat.

Fake news

Just another nothing burger for the bloodsport media to make more fake news from! Should have never release it. No one needed to know any of that and now that I did read it, just another 10mins of lost time. Let the fake news scandals begin!

Oh my God! Dog bites man! More coverage throughout the day🤡

'Here Come the Warm BOTS' to spew support for Trump

Notes and recollections 😂 The coverup rolls on.

So what about the Bidens taking all this money? Fake News doesn't care.

The “impeachment inquiry” is so desperate 👀 looking..TrumpDerangementSyndrome You really have to try HARD to find something wrong about this conversation.

At 3:00pm today I would like to announce that I will be releasing an unredacted transcript of my phone conversation with Sue, a Comcast cable representative, where I admittedly threatened to withhold my monthly cable payment if they did not give me another month of free HBO.

And now he has released them. And it seems he did pressure the new prez of Ukraine to meddle in US election to dig up dirt against his opponent. A new prez in a fragile country trying to strengthen their own democracy and immediately trump tries to draw him into a corrupt scheme!

Bidens son was already under investigation when Joe threatened Ukraine and had the prosecutor fired. 😴

FULL EXONERATION. NEXT!

See California Highway funds being withheld as an example of the Extortion this POS is pushing to do. 🙄🙄 He uses criminal tactics in every decision! This can not be ok/good for the country.

Uh, that’s not a transcript...but you knew that.

realDonaldTrump asked Ukraine to investigate JoeBiden in the call.

I don’t believe ANYTHING coming from the White House!

Did however mention how a meeting with Trump was dependent on compliance.

Yeah. Withholding aid beforehand and then asking a “favor” doesn’t look bad at all, right?

Wewantthetranscript

DEBKANCHAN So what's d fuss about!😂 Dems headed for crushing defeat 2024

Impeach Trump.

were they written in Sharpie?

Read it yourself HERE

The Dems. made their decision to 'talk' about impeachment BEFORE they saw or heard anything in the phone call so why does anyone think now that since they have the transcript, anything will change? It won't!

You have to watch CNN . They look devastated as their own correspondents who read the transcript say there is no link between the request and aid 😂

It's so awesome that Drump thinks there needs to be an explicit quid pro quo for this to be an impeachable offense. He keeps admitting to one crime thinking he is exonerating himself from another.

Read the memorandum of the telephone conversation between President Trump and President Zelenskyy

Which isn’t a transcript.

'Notes and recollections'...sounds legit.

That’s not a transcript - it’s “notes and recollections.”

LOL it blew up on democRATS faces 😂 Golden!

Did I just hear that realDonaldTrump will release the phone transcript but not the whistleblower complaint? Who's to say the White House didn't doctor the transcript? I want to hear what the whistleblower has to say. Is this another Barr-style early Mueller report summary?

Poor SpeakerPelosi got played.

Well... I can certainly see why Dems would be angry... They don’t like anyone in a law enforcement position holding one of their own accountable for corruption. HOW DARE HE!!

mank56 Get a load of these idiots 😂😂

The Democrats will be over.

Hahahahahaaaaaaaa! A nothing burger...again..

not a transcript

Democrats again...

Well, who can argue with a recollection... ImpeachTrump

😂😂😂

Troubling but I will just sit back and let it happen spineless mittens TheView You can't really trust anything Mitt Romney says. One minute he is against tRump and the next he was on his knees begging for a job in the administration before he became Senator. Mitt was cornered and gave a half-assed comment.

Donald Trump says he could 'very easily' release Ukraine call transcript, but he'd 'rather not'On Monday, the president tried to paint the scandal as a media-driven attack and again denied any wrongdoing.

He would, from the same reasons, rather not show to his nation that he paid his taxes like any other person. Despicable
