Allowing Joe Biden to keep secrets about investigations during his presidency that involved his mental acuity and his family’s business schemes are “not in the best interests of the United States.”
That’s the conclusion from the White House counsel, through which President Donald Trump has rejected Biden’s demand for executive privilege over those details.
A report at Fox News explained at issue are the details from various investigations into Biden, his mental state, and the family’s business dealings done during his presidency.
The Senate, as part of multiple investigations into Biden, has asked for those very documents.
And now White House counsel David Warrington has informed the National Archives and Records Administration that Trump “does not uphold the former president’s assertion of privilege” over records requested by four specific congressional investigations.
The agency was directed to turn over those papers to Congress.
The Republican majority on Congress explained that those papers, regarding Biden’s health, including mental acuity, his alleged political investigations into Trump, and the Biden family’s financial schemes – First Son Hunter’s million dollar pay for being on the board of a Ukrainian company suspected of criminal activities for example – go to the heart of the authority of Congress to conduct oversight.
Biden had asserted executive privilege, and the agency then notified the Trump administration, which had to decide.
The report said one category of documents sought by the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations involved the “coverup of former President Biden’s health and cognitive decline.”
Warrington said such subjects must be called to a “full accounting.”
Biden also wanted kept secret requests from the Senate Judiciary Committee regarding “coordinated efforts by the Biden administration against President Trump and his staff through politically motivated investigations.”
“The constitutional protections of executive privilege should not be used to shield from Congress evidence of a president’s efforts to imprison his opponent,” the letter said.
Yet other documents involved the Biden family’s “financial dealings,” including a list of potential conflicts of interest.
In the Burisma situation while Hunter Biden was cashing huge payments from the Ukrainian company, which was under investigation by Ukraine’s own prosecutor, Joe Biden ordered that prosecutor be fired, on threat of losing American financial aid.
Then Joe Biden returned to America and bragged about how he helped get rid of a prosecutor investigating the company paying his son.
Here is Joe Biden bragging about how he leveraged aid to force Ukraine into firing prosecutor Viktor Shokin.
