"Yes, They Were Being Bribed": Fired Ukraine Prosecutor Corroborates Biden Corruption
"Yes, They Were Being Bribed": Fired Ukraine Prosecutor Corroborates Biden Corruption | ZeroHedge

To review - Shokin had an active and ongoing investigation into Ukrainian energy company Burisma and its owner, Mykola Zlochevsky, according to a 2020 US Senate Committee report.

Zlochevsky, who hired Hunter Biden to sit on his board, granted his own company (Burisma) permits to drill for oil and gas in Ukraine while he was Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources. Shokin stated in a 2019 deposition that there were five criminal cases against Zlochevesky, including money laundering, corruption, illegal funds transfers, and profiteering through shell corporations while he was a sitting minister.

Now, Shokin tells Fox News that be believes the Bidens were taking bribes.

"I do not want to deal in unproven facts. But my firm personal conviction is that yes, this was the case. They were being bribed," Shokin told the outlet. "The fact that Joe Biden gave away $1 billion in U.S. money in exchange for my dismissal - my firing - isn't that alone a case of corruption?" he asks in another clip.

Former Ukraine Prosecutor Makes Bombshell Claims Against the Biden Crime Family

Former Ukraine Prosecutor Makes Bombshell Claims Against the Biden Crime Family

A former Ukrainian prosecutor is making bombshell claims about the Biden crime family, saying President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden, were bribed in exchange for forcing him out of office during the Obama Administration.




During an interview with Fox News, former Ukraine prosecutor general Viktor Shokin claimed that he was fired in 2016 for investigating Burisma, the energy firm whose board Hunter Biden served on.

Saying it is his "firm personal conviction" that he was fired because then-Vice President Joe Biden and his corrupt son were bribed. Former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko fired Shokin after just one year following Shokin's alleged corruption and intense pressure from the U.S. government led by Biden.

"And the fact that Joe Biden gave away $1 billion in U.S. money in exchange for my dismissal, my firing, isn't that alone a case of corruption?" Shokin said.

At the time, Shokin's office was investigating Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of natural gas company Burisma Holdings, which paid Hunter Biden $1 million per year to sit on the company's board beginning in April 2014 despite having no prior experience in the job field.

During an event hosted by the Council on Foreign Relations in 2018, Biden was heard boasting about putting pressure on Poroshenko to fire Shokin.

"I'm leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you're not getting the money. Well, son of a bitch. He got fired," Biden reportedly said.

Last month, an FBI informant file revealed that Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of natural gas company Burisma Holdings, was "coerced" into paying $5 million apiece in bribes to the president and his son in exchange for Shokin's ouster.

"[Poroshenko] understood, and so did Vice President Biden, that had I continued to oversee the Burisma investigation, we would have found the facts about the corrupt activities they were engaging in. That included Hunter Biden, Devon Archer, and others," Shokin continued.

One month before Shokin was fired, his office filed a legal petition to seize Zlochevsky's property, including four homes, two properties, and a Rolls-Royce.

Shokin told Fox News host Brian Kilmeade that Burisma illegally sold, produced, and utilized natural gas supplies.

Internal Obama-Biden Administration emails revealed that officials were shocked that Biden was pushing for Shokin's ouster as a condition of U.S. aid.

"Yikes. I don't recall this coming up in our meeting with them on Tuesday," National Security Council aide Eric Ciamarella reportedly wrote in a Jan. 21, 2016 email.

Everyone Knows Why Joe Biden Used A Pseudonym: Corruption
Everyone Knows Why Joe Biden Used A Pseudonym: Corruption

Late last week, the House Oversight Committee asked the National Archives for unredacted communications involving three pseudonyms Joe Biden apparently used during his vice presidency: Robert Peters, Robin Ware, and JRB Ware.

That’s right, Biden used pseudonyms when he was vice president.

Among the documents committee Chairman James Comer is requesting from the National Archives is an email sent to a “Robert Peters” — that is, Biden — with the subject line “Friday Schedule Card,” which included an attachment that had details about a scheduled phone call between then-Vice President Biden and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in May 2016. The only person copied on the email was Hunter Biden.


Isn’t that interesting? Why would Biden use an alias to convey this information to his son? And why, if there was “an absolute wall” between Hunter’s foreign business schemes and his father’s duties as vice president (as Biden has repeatedly claimed), would he have told his son about a phone call with the Ukrainian president? Especially since at the time Hunter was sitting on the board of Burisma, the Ukrainian energy firm that had recently been under investigation.


You know why. The whole country knows why. It’s the same reason Biden had coffee and went to dinners with his son’s foreign business associates when he was vice president. It’s the same reason Hunter would call his father and put him on speakerphone during business meetings. It’s why the Bidens created a network of shell companies to receive tens of millions in payments from oligarchs in Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Romania, and China.


The reason is this: The Bidens are corrupt. And they’re corrupt in a straightforward, easy-to-understand way. As vice president, Joe Biden was a powerful man. He used that power to do things for wealthy foreign oligarchs who made him and his family rich. It’s not more complicated than that.

While I am a fan so far of Desantis, as Governor of Florida, it’s clear he has been chosen by the media as the candidate if Trump is unable. (Which they clearly want to happen)

As to the Dimwits, they want Newsome but they have to escort Joe out of the building first and hand the reigns over to Kameltoe for as short a time as possible.

The media will prop up Nikki Haley since desantis sounded like he wanted to cut the ukraine war aid. While Haley is a cheer leader for the uniparty wars.

But on the next debate if Desantis says he will increase the ukraine aid money, Rupert Murdoch may even get a bonner.

How dumb do they think people are??? Extremely dumb, especially compared to them.
Lots of people believe the MSM. For an example look no further than the current recent troll on this thread. (News flash: The troll posts disappeared this afternoon. Mercy killing?)
Seriously, the masses of obedient sheep turn on the screen or look at their propaganda media sources and blindly follow and believe.

It’s hilarious that Rezzor got banned. A lot of snowflakes in here :lol:
Just my own opinion of course, it wasn't the content of what he/she said, it was the pattern of being an intentional annoyance and disrupter, which was pretty clear to me after foolishly making a few honest responses to his/her postings.

Possibly but is taking the other side of the coin really considered a disruption? The first post of the thread seems to say that both sides of the discussion is welcome/encouraged.

Except that there was never any “discussion” with him nor did he intend or desire there to be. Each and every post was to vent his TDS obsession and use it solely to attempt to provoke other members. A clear pattern with clear intent to start an argument , not “discuss”. Commonly referred to as a “troll”

Obsessive compulsive millennial living in his parents basement? Paid operative? Glowey Fed? Who knows…?

We disagree often here, but we respect each other. I would expect the same opinion of me if I purposely wandered into a “Liberal Progressive” forum and continually ranted negatively about one of their thought leaders and then disrespected their members when confronted with pushback to my provocation.

You know what I mean ?;)

I think everyone here welcomes a good debate. Unfortunately that seems to never happen from the Left. Most are just Trump haters. They can not even tell us why they hate Trump. They just throw stones with no reasoning behind them and cause some of us to react sometimes by throwing stones back. This is just a waste of everyone's time.
