After Acquitting Trump, Senate Announces Probe Into Hunter Biden’s Shady Ukraine Business Dealings

Fact checked
Republican Senators Chuck Grassley (Iowa) and Ron Johnson (Wis.) have announced a Senate investigation into the shady international business dealings of Hunter Biden during the Obama administration.

Republican Senators Chuck Grassley (Iowa) and Ron Johnson (Wis.) have announced a Senate investigation into the shady international business dealings of Hunter Biden during the Obama administration.

Sens. Grassley and Johnson — the chairmen of the Senate Finance and Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committees — are requesting details on the travel records for former Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter as they shift their focus to Biden family corruption after Trump was acquitted in the impeachment trial.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) has also pledged to do oversight of Hunter Biden.

Grassley and Johnson sent a letter to Secret Service Director James Murray saying they were requesting the documents as part of a probe into “potential conflicts of interest posed by the business activities of Hunter Biden and his associates during the Obama administration.

We write to request information about whether Hunter Biden used government-sponsored travel to help conduct private business, to include his work for Rosemont Seneca and related entities in China and Ukraine,” the two senators added.

TheHill reports: As part of their request, the senators specifically want to know what sort of security detail Hunter Biden received while his father served as vice president, and a list of all dates and places Hunter Biden traveled with a protective detail.

They specifically want to know if he traveled on Air Force One or Air Force Two, the presidential and vice presidential aircraft, or on another government aircraft and whether additional family members were present for each trip.

The letter is the latest signal from Senate Republicans that they will step up their efforts to probe the Bidens, who have emerged as a top target for President Trump and his allies as Joe Biden seeks the Democratic presidential nomination this year.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) has also pledged to do oversight of Hunter Biden.

Trump’s efforts to get Ukraine to launch investigations into his political rivals, including the Bidens, were at the center of the monthslong impeachment effort that ended in the Senate on Wednesday.

Congressional investigators focused on Trump’s decision to delay Ukraine aid, which was eventually released in September, and a July 25, 2019 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during which Trump asked Zelensky to work with his personal attorney Rudy Giuliani to “look into” the Bidens.

Republicans have targeted Hunter Biden over his time serving on the board of Ukrainian energy company Burisma while his father served as vice president.

In 2016, Joe Biden pushed for the dismissal of Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin because of concerns he was overlooking corruption in his own office, though Trump and his GOP allies have sought to tie the move to Hunter Biden’s business interests.

  1. Still waiting for charges to be filed against Hillary, Comey, Holder, obama, and many others. Nothing will ever happen.

  2. I watched the video series by Rachel Rion on OAN news with Rudy Giuliani and Ukrainian officials who were prevented from coming to the US to testify by Yovanovich and the embassy in Kiev. I also want to see the political contributions made by Hunter to several politicians in DC.

  3. From the Pieces of Puzzle I put together The picture “appears” to be:

    In 2014 Obama admin helps overthrow the Ukraine govt. 

    VP Biden is appointed the US-Ukraine contact; sons of BiDEN, Pelosi, Romney & Kerry are placed on Ukraine Boards.

    Obama sends billion$ of US taxpayer dollars to Ukraine that gets funneled as kickback percentage commissions to the SON’S on the Boards. With John Kerry’s and his Son this Includes Iran with the Billions of Dollars Obama Sent on Pallets to Iran in the Middle of the Night…

    Today those involved in the Obama-Ukraine caper, like whistleleaker and Coward Eric Ciamellia who ,create the impeachment smoke screen to conceal the kickback scheme and protect the profiting Democrats. 
    I am DUMBFOUNDED that no one remembers when Victoria Newland, (US State Dept under President OBAMA) spilled the beans on open mic that the US State Dept, in concert with NAZl $0R0S, spent $5 billion to overthrow the legitimate government of Ukraine, and tried to install a REAL NAZl government on Russia’s border. (Remember, 20 million Russians died in WW2 at the hands of REAL NAZl’s) They all got the honeypot gas deals for their role in $0R0S’s madness. Then the SAME people blame Russia for “Russian aggression” in protecting their people in Crimea… Now Russia is certainly no angel, but the OBAMA state department was 100% in the wrong there, and set US / Russian relations back 50 years with that stunt; thereby, GREATLY diminishing the national security of the United States of America. The OBAMA administration is administration in its entirety should be Tried for treason and Conspiracy to commit Treason for its actions in Ukriane. Now do you WONDER why they are fighting against PRESIDENT TRUMP so much? Perhaps because PRESIDENT TRUMP is exposing this treason racket in the wide open so everyone can see. Oh, and haters, don’t bother trying to argue my points, they are FACTS… FACTS available to anyone who dares do the research, and I will not entertain any conspiracy theories to the contrary.
    This impeachment Scheme and Hoax is the same as the Russian Collusion Hoax.. It’s just the Democrats Obstructing Justice and Covering Crimes from the Corrupt Obama Administration.

    Fiona Hill was born in England, and is a Communist. Vindman was born in the Soviet Union, and is a Communist. Yovanovitch was born in the Soviet Union, and is a Communist. This thing stinks to high heaven. All should be Fired ASAP.
