House GOP Launches Investigation into Ukrainian President’s Visit to Crucial Pennsylvania Battleground

Published on

The House Oversight Committee investigates the Biden-Harris Administration’s alleged misuse of taxpayer funds to fly Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy to Pennsylvania, a battleground state ahead of the presidential election in November.

James Comer (R-Ky.), the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, sent letters on Wednesday to the White House and Justice Department, asking for documents about the administration’s alleged exploitation of government resources to allow Zelenskyy allegedly to “interfere with the 2024 presidential elections.”

Comer wrote: “In 2019, the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives impeached Donald J. Trump on grounds of abuse of power, based on the theory that he tried to use a Ukrainian leader – Volodymyr Zelenskyy – to benefit his presidential campaign in 2020. Despite the lack of evidence of wrongdoing by President Trump.”

Comer, though, said the Biden-Harris administration “recently flew the same foreign leader — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy — on an American-taxpayer-funded flight to Pennsylvania, a battleground state in the upcoming 2024 presidential election, which has been described as the ‘trickiest battleground for Vice President Kamala Harris to win.'”

Comer wrote: “The Committee is seeking to determine if the Biden-Harris Administration tried to use a leader from a foreign country to benefit Vice President Harris’ presidential campaign, and, if that was true, whether it was an abuse of authority.”

Comer said that his committee is investigating the circumstances that led the administration to “justify’ the transport of Zelenskyy to Pennsylvania on a Department of Air Force aircraft.

Comer confirmed that Zelenskyy had made a stopover in Pennsylvania for a meeting with Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro.

Comer also cited an interview with Zelenskyy in which he criticized Trump and his running-mate, Sen. JDVance, calling him “too radical.”

Comer wrote: “He also stated that he believed President Trump and his government would not be in a position to stop the conflict, despite it being one of his main campaign platforms. (And peace was achieved throughout the entire former Trump administration)”.

Comer wrote: “This rhetoric from a foreign official released in anticipation for a U.S. taxpayer-funded visit about the political opponent of the current Administration is highly concerning.” The Committee is looking into any coordination or communication between the Biden-Harris administration, Pennsylvania’s Office of the Governor, and President Zelenskyy to use or solicit the use of government properties for Vice President Harris’s presidential campaign.

Comer, in a letter to Attorney-General Merrick Garland, reminds that the DOJ has a high priority on combating foreign interference in elections, especially from adversaries.

However, Comer said the House Oversight Committee “believes no foreign actor — whether or not deemed ‘malign’ by DOJ — should be permitted to interfere in American elections.”

The letters from Comer were sent to Garland as well as to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, Assistant to the President, and White House counsel Edward Siskel.

Comer requested documents and records by October 2.
