President zelensky decided that they were not going to issue thatt statement that Rudy Giuliani wanted to include burisma in the 2016 elections, there was no white house meeting.

the case it after. i well,nt the only interest b they have in hunter bidenidon is how they can cover up the investigation or lack ntthereof into his laptop. christopher wray yesterday would not even confirm l l thatn the fbi has the laptop, even though reportedly they took possession of the device in december of 2019. so we don t know what s going on with that investigation. we know there s a separate tax investigation. but to whatio senator kennedy wi talking about, what the fbi is doing is covering up any sort of scandal or criminal incriminating evidence that could be found on this laptop. you had fbiffic officials go to senators grassley and johnson in august of 2020 to warn them that any reporting on biden s laptop was a russian disinformation. so they re not only bearing any sort of investigation, they re actually spinning it in a way that prevents even us senators
