Senate Report: Obama knew of H Biden's business dealings. Obama Admin Knew Hunter Bidenâs Ukraine Work Was Suspect, but Ignored Warnings, Senate GOP Report Finds.
Top Obama-administration officials were aware that Hunter Bidenâs position on the board of directors of a Ukrainian gas firm was problematic but ignored repeated warnings from senior officials, according to a report by Republicans on two Senate committees.
In 2014, Hunter Biden, son of then-Vice President Joe Biden, joined the board of Burisma, a Ukrainian gas company owned by an oligarch whom U.S. authorities viewed as corrupt. The Senate Finance and Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committees concluded that the problems with Hunter Bidenâs role with Burisma extended beyond mere perception of a conflict of interest and had an impact on U.S. policy in Ukraine.

US Catholics increasing support for Trump. Trump has been called the most pro-life president in history. That, along with his appeals to faith, family, and patriotism are very attractive to more devout Catholics.
The Catholic vote in America used to be a monolith, with up to 80 percent of Catholics supporting the Democratic candidate for president. Those days are gone, but the Catholic vote â especially in the northeast and upper midwest â is crucial. Catholics have voted for the presidential winner in 8 of the last 9 elections. They make up about 22 percent of the electorate.
But Catholics are riven by divisions between those who say they mostly follow the Churchâs teachings and those who donât. More conservative Catholics have been trending Republican in recent elections and that trend is expected to accelerate when Catholics go to the polls in November and vote for Trump.
