In a list of 17 questions the Trump campaign wants Democratic nominee Joe Biden to answer in Tuesday's debate, their first targets Biden's son Hunter's previous financial transactions.

The report, led by the committees of Sens Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley, said that Hunter Biden's investment firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners, received nine wire transfers from Elena Baturina, a Russian billionaire and the wife of the former mayor of Moscow, in 2015.

According to the probe, former members of the Obama administration voiced concern that Hunter's affiliations with Baturina could appear as a conflict of interest with Joe Biden's role as vice president.Johnson and Grassley also reported that the younger Biden had several associations with Chinese nationals, including one that"financed a $100,000 global spending spree with James Biden and Sara Biden," the brother and sister-in-law of the Democratic nominee.

"These were just some of the findings from their investigation into potential conflicts of interest arising from Hunter Biden accepting a position on the board of, and taking millions of dollars from, Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company with a long-standing reputation for corruption, while his father, Joe Biden, was vice president and the public face of the Obama administration's handling of Ukraine policy," the U.S.

Let this open all the way and we’ll see Trump at the center. Yes Trump, demand answers fast!!

Why are you covering this garbage?

Well the People and Biden demands that TRUMP show his taxes that he promise he would do. And the People would like to know how much his daughter made with her business in China.

The people want the trump campaign to tell us who holds all of trump’s massive debts and what favors don the con is doing for his owners

Americans demand answers to trump getting loans from the Philippines and other enemy foreign countries. It's a deflection trying to make Hunter Biden the focus as a LAME dig at his father. It's a desperate scheme. Hunter is an adult & responsible for his own actions.

Who cares? Hunter isn't running for President. He's been investigated and found innocent of all allegations.

Why are you reporting this now? In the midst of the debate?

No one cares.

Trump’s campaign demands answers on why Biden can fly? Reporting is weak as shit in this country.

Then we should know who lent Trump 400 million dollars.

Lies. The 2016 playbook isn’t working!

None of their business. WhiteHouse PressSec realDonaldTrump

Shame on you...this is not about either Hunter Biden...

We demand answers on her Chinese patents!! Aka Eva Braun Comrade Trump
