The Ukrainian Prosecutor Joe Biden Had Fired Is Speaking Out

Former Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin is speaking out and revealing his side of the story after then Vice President Joe Biden demanded he be fired back in 2016. 

At the time of his firing, Shokin was investigating corruption at Ukrainian gas company Burisma -- the same company that was paying Hunter Biden $80,000 per month to sit on the board. 

During closed door testimony in front of the House Oversight Committee earlier this week, Hunter Biden's former business partner -- Devon Archer -- said he believed Burisma would have gone under if not for the Biden "brand" -- including Joe Biden -- being attached to the company. 

"My only thought is that I think Burisma would have gone out of business if it didn’t have the brand attached to it," Archer said. 

Archer also revealed during an interview with Tucker Carlson that Burisma often gave him and Hunter expensive birthday gifts.

Both houses of Congress are probably knee deep in this sort of sh!t, with few exceptions. This is why they had to impeach Trump for making inquiries with the new Ukrainian President about Biden. If Biden gets exposed, they could be next.

With his decades of opportunistic foreign-policy experience,
and a U of Penn think tank dedicated to intl affairs,
Joe knew these foreigners hailed from countries where a
politician’s son selling dad’s influence is typical.

<><>In the shady confines of third world finance, having a
picture of yourself taken w/ VP Biden is worth gazillions.

<><>So Biden knew his presence signaled that paying off Hunter
would result in a US govt favor....soon as Obama signed off on it.

<><>The only reason Biden did it time and again was to help
Hunter collect......and enrich the Biden Crime Family.

After all these years, have Democrats finally learned what Biden did to Shokin?

When I brought up Shokin, dems told me "everybody wanted Shokin fired." Yeah, unanimous among globalist politicians from both the US and Europe.

Since when is it up to them? A sovereign nation gets to choose its own prosecutors. It is none of the US’s business whom they choose and whom that prosecutor prosecutes. Using American aid as a cudgel to interfere in domestic affairs for private reasons is beyond the pale.

Brandon’s doing the same with judicial reform here in Israel.

I think they are evil and powerful. They might say “It’s for a good cause.” I am not convinced.

"A sovereign nation gets to choose its own prosecutors."

Really...? I recently read somewhere that Merrick Garland has ties to the Ukraine... Imagine that.

I don’t think Ukraine chose Merrick Garland. Obomba was pushing him for SCOTUS a long time ago. Wouldn’t surprise me if Ukraine was greasing him, along with China, Russia and the Norks.

Yeah, right. Russia invaded Ukraine for a “good cause”. China’s enslaving Uighers for a “good cause”. Anytime you want to do something odious, there’s a “good cause” handy. Every time evil, powerful people talk about their “good cause” for this or that, watch out.
