Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci accused President Trump of committing treason by asking Ukraine to investigate his political rival Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden.

Scaramucci, who was fired after less than two weeks in his White House role, said Trump made a “mistake” by asking Ukraine behind closed doors to look into the Bidens. He said the president had normalized his previous “traitorous behavior” by requesting such favors “out in the open.”
