Trump Asked Ukraine to Work With Barr, Giuliani on Biden Probe

The transcript reveals President Trump urging Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden, and to find a server linked to the Clinton probe. Trump also directed Ukraine to work with Rudy Giuliani. The transcript is central to impeachment discussions, with the White House allowing whistleblower testimony. Giuliani claims State Department involvement, while the DOJ denies Barr's contact with Ukraine. The political fallout depends on Republican responses, as impeachment requires a House majority and a two-thirds Senate vote.
