President Donald Trump criticized U.S. Attorney General William Barr after a report claimed that he knew about the federal investigation into Hunter Biden before the election.

The report from the Wall Street Journal said on Thursday that Barr knew about two investigations into his business dealings at about the time that his father was vice president of the United States.

The Department of Justice has rules against taking investigative steps that would have an affect on any election, and Barr’s decision to keep the investigations under wraps might have been in order to satisfy that policy.

On Friday the president reacted \to the report via his social media account.

“Now it turns out that my phone call to the President of Ukraine, which many, including me, have called ‘perfect’, was even better than that,” tweeted Trump.

“I predicted Biden corruption, said to call the A.G. [Bill Barr], who perhaps knew of the corruption during the impeachment hoax?” he added.

The president was referring to a conversation he had with Ukrainian President Zelensky where he asked him to look into charges of corruption against former Vice President Joe Biden. Democrats impeached the president partly over the call because they said it was an abuse of power.

While accusations of criminal activity by Hunter Biden were tossed around before the election by allies of the president, the existence of a federal investigation was revealed on Wednesday.

“I learned yesterday for the first time that the US Attorney’s Office in Delaware advised my legal counsel, also yesterday, that they are investigating my tax affairs,” said Hunter Biden in a statement put out by the Biden Harris transition team.

A later report said that the probe was much more expansive than his “tax affairs,” and could include accusations of money laundering and illegal conduct with foreign countries.
