But you have no evidence of any wrongdoing by Biden. You have evidence of wrongdoing by Zlochevski.That's simply a lie.I did read the article, jackass.Bullshit. It's perfectly legal for the PGO and NABU to investigate all payments made by Burisma because of a pattern of corrupt activity, which has included bribery.So you have no reason to believe that Hunter Biden failed to perform services for his salary, but you want to investigate anyway?If no services were rendered, there would be no evidence.In some cases it certainly is illegal.Who cares? Let’s say it was a totally irrational decision. But it’s not illegal to make irrational hires and pay them too much money.
If it’s not illegal, you can’t investigate it. The question is irrelevant.
Burisma sent a lot of money to Rosemont Seneca, Biden's law firm. It's not necessarily illegal for a corporation in Ukraine to make payments to a board member's company, but is has to be for actual services rendered. Otherwise it's illegal.
That is one of the issues Ukraine is investigating.
Is there credible evidence to suggest that there were no services rendered by Biden?
What they want is documentation that services were rendered. And PG Shokin wanted to interview Burisma's board of directors, including Hunter Biden, regarding many other issues too.
Quid Pro Joe extorted Ukraine's government to get Shokin removed and replaced with his corrupt puppet, Lutsenko. So Burisma was off the hook. But not anymore. Zelenski won and there's a new administration and they are reviewing all of Burisma cases.
And the Shokin assassination attempt is also under investigation. Biden obviously had a motive to kill Shokin, so he's naturally a suspect. And just a month after the assassination attempt, Joe Biden started pressuring Poroshenko and Yatsenyuk to fire Shokin. So that raises some eyebrows too.
That would be engaging in a political witch hunt without predication. Not legal.
Since Joe Biden was caught on a live stream confessing that he extorted Ukraine officials into firing the Prosecutor General who was investigating Burisma and Zlochevsky, there is plenty of reasonable suspicion that the payments to Biden's firm were nothing but a bribe. Especially since Burisma and Rosemont Seneca have refused to present any contemporaneous documentation showing that Biden's firm rendered any sort of legitimate legal services to Burisma. Likely because they don't exist.
Hell, just a couple of months ago they were caught trying to bribe investigators on behalf of Zlochevsky AGAIN!.
Ukraine seizes $6million to stop probe of firm that hired Hunter Biden
Ukrainian authorities seized $6 million allegedly used for a bribe scheme - the largest in the country's history - linked to Burisma Holdings, a gas company which gave Hunter Biden a seat on its board.www.dailymail.co.uk
There's definitely a pattern of corruption, including extortion and bribery. Therefore there's plenty of reasonable suspicion to investigate the payments to Biden.
Given the huge amount of evidence, I think we both know beyond a reasonable doubt that the payments were a bribe.
You should have read your article, there were no ties to Biden:
The seizure, which is the largest in Ukraine's history, had no ties to Biden, say authorities, who showed stacks of $100 bill at a press conference Saturday.
It's more evidence a pattern of corrupt behavior by Zlochevski. Another bribe. This puts all of Burisma and Zlochevski's payments under even more suspicion, including the payments to Biden.
It's a continuation of a pattern of bribery.
Then you can investigate Zlochevski, but not Biden.
Probable cause needs to be specific to the person being investigated.
