The House of Representatives has been trying to come up with evidence to impeach President Trump for two months. Based on a phone call that occurred between President Trump and Ukraine President Zelenskyy. Both people have said there was no such attempt. And Congress has yet to find hard evidence that it really happened.
But that is not what this is about. It is about admitted quid pro quo no one seems to be interested in. Oh because its not a conservative or Republican. Lets take a look at it. See what you think?
In 2014 then Vice President Joe Biden was point man in the Obama administration for the Ukraine. Russia had invaded Ukraine and Biden pushed to support Ukraine, which Obama was rather cool about. Biden was pushing the then Ukraine’s government to fix the Ukraine’s governments corruption. Biden pushed hard on newly elected Petro O. Poroshenko to clean the corruption up.
At about the same time Hunter Biden was hired by Burisma, as a Board member. Burisma is a Ukrainian gas company that was subject of multiple corruption investigations. The position paid Hunter Biden $50 thousand a month.
Reuters reviewed payment records allegedly from Burisma which show $3.4 million in payments to a company headed by Biden’s business partner, Devon Archer, called Rosemont Seneca Bohai LLC, between April 2014 and November 2015.
Keep in mind that Hunter Biden had no experience in any energy industry, and no experience in the Ukraine.
Poroshenko’s first prosecutor general was fired in 2015 after it came to light that he was accepting bribe money from Mykola Zlochevsky, owner of Burisma Holdings. Viktor Shokin became the second prosecutor general. At some point Shokin open an investigation into Burisma corruption.
In late2015 the Obama administration was growing frustrated with Poroshenko’s lack of progress to cleaning things up, Biden was sent to make the case publicly for reforms to the Ukrainian Parliament.
So Joe says he controlled a Billion Dollar loan and he used it to get a guy fired who was investigating Burisma.
On Sept 21,2019 in Des Moines, Iowa Joe says “I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings,” So according to Joe he had no idea that hunter was working for Burisma, and didn’t know the guy he got fired was investigating his sons employer.
Ok, so here is a picture of Joe, Hunter, Hunter’s partner, and a Burisma exec.taken as they played golf in 2014. But Joe didn’t know??????
So not is it only that no one seems to be interested in this but Joe is doing what Joe does, because he said it didn’t happen, it didn’t!
Today
Oh well that is the way it goes in a double standard justice system, you happy with that?
