'We come with receipts': Texas Dem raises questions over Biden probe timeline
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) on Friday questioned the timeline of the House GOP-led investigation of Joe Biden over allegations he was involved in a bribery scheme with foreign nationals.
Crockett as a member of the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability was among those who viewed a confidential document of an unsubstantiated tip that Republicans claim bolsters the allegations against Biden.
The Texas Democrat said the document contained information that was already reviewed by the Trump administration.
“I want people to understand the timeline,” Crockett said Friday night during an appearance on MSNBC’s “All In With Chris Hayes” with guest host Ayman Mohyeldin.
“We're talking about someone recounting something that was told to them at least three years after, allegedly, they were told this, and they had all these details in their mind and whatnot, and also to be clear, as my ranking member who can be trusted with the truth, Jamie Raskin, he laid it out and made it clear that it's not that this information came, and then it was just thrown away. It was actually Trump's administration, it was Trump’s DOJ that received this information, and they followed through, and there was nothing to follow through with."
“So yes, we do have all these ‘ghost’ witnesses and things like that but let me tell you who has real witnesses. Trump, Trump, his lawyers.”
Asked by Mohyeldin how Democrats plan to counter the GOP attacks, Crockett said “We do what we always do.”
“We come with receipts, and we come with facts to oversight. We are taking them down every time they try to go after the President with these salacious and fraudulent claims. We are very well equipped as you can see, we got we got all the brains on one side, and they got the other stuff on the other side.”
