As Trump looks like going down in flames, many, including Charles and me, have suggested that he declassify every bit of embarrassing information he has, as well as pardon Assange, himself and his family, but he better get a wriggle on, as it is ending soon.
“President Donald Trump tweeted Saturday that he intends to “declassify everything,” over his own apparent concern that the Department of Justice and Attorney General William Barr withheld information about an ongoing DOJ investigation into Hunter Biden, the son of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.
Hunter Biden acknowledged this week that he is under investigation over questions about his tax returns and possible unreported income from Ukrainian oil and gas firm, Burisma. As The Daily Wire noted late last week, further information seems to have emerged creating questions about Hunter Biden’s foreign dealings, including a possible entanglement in China.
“In addition to Delaware, the securities fraud unit in the Southern District of New York also scrutinized Hunter Biden’s finances, according to the person with direct knowledge of the investigation,” Politico reported. “The person said that, as of early last year, investigators in Delaware and Washington were also probing potential money laundering and Hunter Biden’s foreign ties.”
On Friday, The Wall Street Journal reported, tensions bubbled over in the White House, following news that Trump’s Attorney General William Barr knew of the investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings before the presidential election but did not make it public — a decision, the president felt, cost him support and may have cost him the election.
“Mr. Trump, in a meeting Friday, fumed about a Wall Street Journal report that Mr. Barr knew of an existing federal investigation into Hunter Biden before the election but worked to keep it from being publicly disclosed, a person familiar with the conversation said. In the meeting, Mr. Trump contemplated firing Mr. Barr, people familiar with the conversation said, adding that it is not clear whether Mr. Trump intends to follow through,” WSJ noted.”
I hope he has the guts to do even this, but his presidency has been filled with threats that go nowhere. How could this fool not have woken up to Barr sooner? Did his intelligence agents do anything beyond eat fast food with him?
