ens. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, and Ron. Johnson, R-Wisc., the chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, requested the records in the form of a suspicious activity report, also known as a SARs. They also requested financial records through FinCEN, which is a branch of the Treasury Department that eyes money laundering.

Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., who sits on the Finance Committee, told Yahoo News that the swift response from Treasury is a "blatant double standard" considering how the Trump administration responded to Democrats' effort to obtain documents and witness testimony in his impeachment trial.

"The administration told House Democrats to go pound sand when their oversight authority was mandatory while voluntarily cooperating with the Senate Republicans’ sideshow at lightning speed," a spokesman from Wyden told the website.

Grassley refused to identify what information Treasury provided when reached by The New York Times, but said through a spokesman, "It's unfortunate that Democrats whom we’ve kept in the loop on our investigations would recklessly seek to interfere with legitimate government oversight."

I love it!

Trump isn't going to shrug his shoulders and say, okay it's over. He's going to do what Pubs never do. He's going to clean house and help the Senate Pubs that are willing investigate these people. He fights back.

I'm not holding my breath.  There have been all kinds of inquiries, subpoenas, and evidence brought forward in the past couple of years yet no one on the left has been indicted or prosecuted.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Can't wait for the Dims to start crying out loud and in front of cameras,"Yeah,but it's ok when WE do it!"

Remember the hissy fits they had when Newt and the Republicans took control of Congress for the first time in 40 years?

The Republicans must NOT make the same mistake now they made back then,and reward Dims who are willing to defect and become Republicans by making them the chairmen of important committees . That was what eventually led to Newt being kicked out of Congress and the Dims taking control again.

A "conversion of convenience" is not a conversion,it is a stealth attack from behind our own lines.

True,but don't be surprised if that changes after Trump is re-elected. He just PLAYS at being stupid on tv.

And it will not only end in indictments against the Biden offsprung,but also the offsprung of Pelosi,Kerry,and one other prominent Dim whose name I can never seem to remember. They ALL had seats on the same board as Hunter,and for the same reasons,laundering bribe money to their parents.

Given these are all privleged children of the privleged who have never had to face reality before,how many seconds of pondering their possible time in a federal prison do you will think it will take before the first one volunteers to testify against the others?

I'm starting to believe that something may actually start happening. Trump doesn't seem to be willing to back off. He's getting rid of the disloyal people o the NSC and Sondland. Also, AG Barr has been pretty forceful in his support of Trump. We will see what happens in the Senate.

@Bigun

INCLUDING charges of selling their votes and offices for personal gain against their parents.

I am curious about the chances of one of them turning states evidence and being recorded giving testimony before he or she dies from  yet one more tragic "prison suicide".

Anybody that doesn't think this is possible should remember John Wayne Kerry bragging about murdering a VN peasant woman and her two children who were walking along the river bank in broad daylight with the 50 caliber machine gun on his boat,just because they were walking in a "free fire zone",and he could.

No doubt this is why investigations never seem to go anywhere. We only know about the tip of the iceberg. Trump doesn't come from this world and his children have been involved in the family business not the govt corruption so I don't see him backing off.

@bilo

And he is NEVER running for public office again,and doesn't owe anyone in politics a single damn thing. In FACT,he has been punished by politics his entire life by being forced to suck up to and donate money to Dim politicians just to get them to do what the law already requires them to do in order to be able to buy,manage,rent,and sell his properties.

Given these are all privileged children of the privileged who have never had to face reality before,how many seconds of pondering their possible time in a federal prison do you will think it will take before the first one volunteers to testify against the others?

That's a good question. But I suppose it depends on how real a possibility it might be made for each of them while being questioned by the authorities.

Like Hillary's emails?  Trump keeps mentioning that but he honored her at his Inauguration breakfast.  He also said she had suffered enough.  He was the one that let her off but he keeps talking about it.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.
