‘We Have Receipts!’ House Rep Gloats Over Trump Foreign Payments on Morning Joe — Slams Trump’s ‘Corruption’

Morning Joe opened Friday’s show with a stunning House Democrat report alleging that former President Donald Trump earned $7.8 million in revenue from foreign nations while he served as president.

Rep. Robert Garcia told the MSNBC morning show, “This report shows where the real grift and corruption and illegal activity is. We have receipts, we have bank records, we have accounting.”

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a 155-page report on Thursday that alleged businesses owned by Trump received at least $7.8 million from 20 foreign governments, including China, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, while Trump was in office.

The report emerges amid an ongoing investigation into alleged Biden Family corruption led by House Oversight Chair James Comer, which has led to an impeachment inquiry but has failed to deliver anything more than suggestive and circumstantial evidence to prove that President Joe Biden did anything that rises to a high crime or misdemeanor.

Jonathan Lemire noted the comparison between the evidence in this report and the allegation that “the Trump family profited while he was in office,” which is the same claim the House GOP is trying to make about the Bidens.

“So tell us how you will bring this to your Republican colleagues. What do you think? Does this change anything? Do you make that argument?” he asked. “And frankly, what do you see as the future of the Hunter Biden probes, which, again, members of your committee are trying to make a central part of President Biden’s reelection campaign?”

“Let’s be just clear. There is zero evidence, of course, as we know, that links present Biden with any wrongdoing. Republicans cannot come up with any information or any sort of wrongdoing,” Garcia replied. “And they are clearly projecting. I mean, this report shows where the real grift and corruption and illegal activity is.”

“We have receipts, we have bank records, we have accounting. It’s all there laid out in the report. And there is much more that has yet to be uncovered,” he added. “And so that Republicans it’s incredible to see the hypocrisy that the House Republicans, that James Comer, that the new speaker, are trying are trying to put together with this impeachment scam that they have put together, essentially to try to attack the Biden family.”

“But President Biden has no business interests as he serves as president,” he added. “Donald Trump had a complex web of ways of pulling in money from foreign governments to enrich himself and his family. And so we’re going to make that contrast. Clearly, Republicans want to just throw whatever they can at the wall.”
