Lisa Mascaro Associated Press Washington — Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley released an unclassified document Thursday that Republicans claim is significant in their investigation of Hunter Biden as they probe the financial affairs of the president's son and revive previously debunked claims of wrongdoing. “The American people can now read this document for themselves," Grassley said. Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland, the top Democrat on the Oversight panel, said after lawmakers reviewed a redacted document in June, “Congress thoroughly reviewed and debunked" similar allegations that Giuliani had made. They said they were unaware of the document. Republicans have denounced the agreement with federal prosecutors as a "sweetheart deal."

The memo is an unverified claim from person A who said they had a phone call with person B from an energy company who said they paid the Bidens 5 million each. The only evidence of either the bribery or the phone call about the bribery is this one claim from one person.

Refer this to that DOJ and get back to doing your jobs. So sick of this theatrical “they’re all the same” BS.

People, pay no attention to “allegations” of wrongdoing. If you just keep score based upon convictions and plea bargains, it is clear which team is committing 90% of the crimes.
