Trump Unloads On Fake News Media: The Biden Family Was Paid Off!

President Donald Trump shared his frustrations with the Democrats' ongoing impeachment saga, calling the mainstream media's reporting as "fake news."

"The fake news must stop making excuses for something that is totally inexcusable," he said in a tweet. 

Democrats launched an impeachment into Trump over a call he had with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. During the call, Trump asked Zelensky to look into the Bidens' dealings. While Vice President Joe Biden was handling foreign relations with Ukraine on behalf of the United States, his son, Hunter, was being paid $50,000 a month by a Ukrainian oil company, despite having no natural energy experience. Democrats have said Trump threatened to withhold military aid unless Zelensky launched a probe but an unclassified, unredacted transcript of the call shows that to be false.
