Short thread
NEW: A letter sent to Ukraine’s president, signed by three GOP senators, in February 2016 urged changes in the prosecutor general’s office.
The letter shows there was bi-partisan support for it at the time, undermining Trump’s claims of a quid pro quo.https://t.co/bIv9WQy8fr— andrew kaczynski🤔 (@KFILE) October 3, 2019
The letter as signed by members of the bi-partisan Ukraine Caucus, including three Republicans and five Democrats. It read, “We similarly urge you to press ahead with urgent reforms to the Prosecutor General’s Office and judiciary.” https://t.co/bIv9WQy8fr

GOP Sen. Ron Johnson, who signed the 2016 letter asking for the same reforms in the general prosecutor’s office as Biden — and now wants Biden investigated — said today he doesn’t remember signing the letter.
“I don’t engage in hypocrisy,” he added.https://t.co/E37Yy5Wjzp pic.twitter.com/WtExjmpWlo— andrew kaczynski🤔 (@KFILE) October 3, 2019
