Here’s What Happened With The Bidens And Ukraine

Topline: President Trump and his personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, repeatedly claimed that Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden engaged in corruption while the two had dealings in Ukraine.

But no evidence of corruption has ever been found⁠—here’s what actually happened:
  • In May 2014, Hunter Biden took a board seat on Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings. He was reportedly paid $50,000 per month.
  • Burisma had ties to Ukraine’s previous president Viktor Yanukovych, who was ousted from office.
  • As vice president, Joe Biden was tasked with reducing corruption in Ukraine after Yanukovych⁠—eventually charged with “mass killing of civilians”⁠— exiled himself to Crimea amid threats of civil war.
  • The overlap between the vice president and his son raised concerns over a potential conflict of interest. The Obama White House said there was no issue with Hunter Biden’s work, and that no conflict of interest existed.
  • In 2016, and with the support of other world leaders, Joe Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion of U.S. aid unless Ukraine’s leaders fired the country’s top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, for being too soft on corruption⁠⁠—which they did.
  • Before Shokin was fired, he had been conducting an investigation of Burisma, and Hunter Biden allegedly was a subject. But the investigation had been inactive for over a year by the time Joe Biden pushed for Shokin’s ouster.
  • Hunter Biden stepped down from his Burisma board seat in April 2019. He had been offered another term but refused because it could possibly hurt Joe Biden’s presidential campaign.
  • Kurt Volker, the former U.S. special envoy for Ukraine, testified in an October 3 hearing before Congress that he warned Giuliani that he was being given “untrustworthy” information about the Bidens. Volker resigned his post September 28 after being named in the whistleblower report.
  • Ukraine’s current top prosecutor Ruslan Ryaboshapka said October 4 he will review all old cases involving Burisma. He did not say when the review will be completed, or if the cases will be re-opened.

Why Was Ukraine's Top Prosecutor Fired? The Issue At The Heart Of The Dispute Gripping Washington

"Ironically, Joe Biden asked Shokin to leave because the prosecutor failed [to pursue] the Burisma investigation, not because Shokin was tough and active with this case," Kaleniuk said.

Ukrainian prosecutors have described no evidence indicating that Biden sought to help his son by getting Shokin dismissed -- and have suggested that they have not discovered any such evidence.

But there is a long list of Western organizations, governments, and diplomats, as well as Ukrainian anti-corruption groups, that wanted to see Shokin fired.

They include the International Monetary Fund, the European Union, the U.S. government, foreign investors, and Ukrainian advocates of reform.

Why Was Ukraine's Top Prosecutor Fired? The Issue At The Heart Of The Dispute Gripping Washington

Explainer: Biden, allies pushed out Ukrainian prosecutor because he didn't pursue corruption cases
Courtney Subramanian
USA TODAY

It wasn't because Shokin was investigating a natural gas company tied to Biden's son; it was because Shokin wasn't pursuing corruption among the country's politicians, according to a Ukrainian official and four former American officials who specialized in Ukraine and Europe.
Shokin's inaction prompted international calls for his ouster and ultimately resulted in his removal by Ukraine's parliament.
Without pressure from Joe Biden, European diplomats, the International Monetary Fund and other international organizations, Shokin would not have been fired, said Daria Kaleniuk, co-founder and executive director of the Anti Corruption Action Centre in Kiev.

"Civil society organizations in Ukraine were pressing for his resignation," Kaleniuk said, "but no one would have cared if there had not been voices from outside this country calling on him to go."

Yeah. Defend Sloppy Joe and the Biden Crime family.



Oh fucking please. Fucked Snooze just paid out $787.5M to Dominion for lying about election results. Hardly the most reliable source available.

You have jack shit. In the only way for you to know you have jack shit would to know what jack shit and YOU DO NOT KNOW JACK SHIT!

You have nothing, you have less than nothing. You grasping at imaginary straws. You have no facts. You have no proof. You have no evidence.

You're making shit up and doing a piss poor job of it.
 
You're getting quite frantic. That happens when you fail to present a defendable argument.

You have a terrible sense of others if you think being laughed at is a sign of being frantic.

As far as my argument -- it's that you made up the claim that Shokin announced he was planning on investigating Burisma when he was fired.

You can claim my position is indefensible all you want, but since you can't produce any proof other than posting articles which don't say what you claim, you lost. No matter how much you think you won.

And yet, here you are, still unable to defend your false claims.

It's all from the FD-1023, which means nothing in it has been verified. Maybe it's true; maybe it's not. It's not even known if there are any such tapes or not. It's not known if the FBI has any such tapes.
 
And yet, here you are, still unable to defend your false claims.

LOL

You're funny.

My claim is you made up your claim that Shokin announced he was planning on investigating Burisma when he got sacked. And here you are, still unable to prove I'm wrong.

And this..
 
After FBI director ''slippery'' Wray tried to plead ignorance about the existence of a 1023 and had to backtrack,...

But, wait. There's more.


What did Bill Barr think of that 1023 form?
 
LOL

You're funny.

And here you are, pleading your hurt feelings.

Don't invent clains you can't support.
 
Sounds like leftist hopes and dreams to me.
In addition, prosecutors did not find indications of any intent to obstruct in the Clinton lawyers’ deletion of the emails they decided were personal. They “concluded that there was no evidence that emails intentionally were deleted by former Secretary Clinton’s lawyers to conceal the presence of classified information on former Secretary Clinton’s server,” Horowitz reported.

Oh, yeah. And 4 years on, still no charges for Hunter Biden who lied on a federal gun purchase application.

Must be nice when the hack Democrat controlled FBI, DOJ and the Biden crime family can make crimes go away.
