CIA says whistleblower allegation touted by GOP in Joe Biden impeachment probe is 'false'
usatoday.com

In a blow to House Republicans’ impeachment inquiry into the president, the CIA refuted a whistleblower’s allegations that the agency sought to block a federal investigation into President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, on Thursday.

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, R-Ky., and House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, sent a letter to the CIA in March saying a whistleblower informed them the CIA blocked the Department of Justice and IRS investigators from interviewing a benefactor of Hunter Biden.

The CIA called the allegation “false” in a letter obtained by USA TODAY and sent to the chairs on Thursday.

It's really hard playing both sides when you do it by alternating mistrust. The curious part is how long they managed to keep the facade...

They'll tell you that Obama was watchign a basketball game in the Oval Office when 9/11 happened, and that Donald Trump was at Ground Zero personally helping with the rescue effort.

I've seen him hold a shovel, that one I can debunk personally.

I'll see your shovel and raise you Trump pretending to drive a Truck.
