Romney says Biden probe 'not legitimate role of government'

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican Sen. Mitt Romney is sharply criticizing an investigation by his own party into Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s son, saying it's “not the legitimate role of government” to try and damage political opponents.

GOP Sen. Ron Johnson, chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, has said the committee will issue a report before the Nov. 3 election on Hunter Biden’s activities in Ukraine. Johnson, a close ally of President Donald Trump, is leading the investigation into Burisma, a gas company in Ukraine that paid Hunter Biden to serve as a board member while Joe Biden was vice president to President Barack Obama.

Most Republican senators have been on board with Johnson’s inquiry. But Romney, a frequent Trump critic, has repeatedly made clear he has concerns about politicizing the committee’s work.

@mystery-ak

Maybe hitting a bit too close to "home" for "Mormon Mitt"?

His religion has nothing to do with this...please refrain from criticizing the Mormon faith.

It is absolutely a legitimate role when high level government officials are involved in corruption.

Have to agree with you on this, it would be much more truthful to just blame politics where someone elected as a pauper soon becomes a millionaire and that cuts across all faiths.

As law enforcement is an arm of government I guess Mitt is saying any government employee involved in corruption with a foreign entity is above the law.

How convenient for Mitt.

Romney the Rat is to be ignored on all things.  He is one of the worst self serving rats in Washington right now.  If he wants no investigation into Hunter and the Ukraine, more than likely, he too is doing something unsavory in the Ukraine.   :yowsa:

@mystery-ak

I wasn't aware that I was. I was and am criticizing a weasel that happens to be a Mormon.
