State Department Withholding All Key Documents on Biden-Ukraine Until After Impeachment Trial
GATEWAY PUNDIT ^ | 1/15/2020 | Christina Laila

The State Department is withholding all key documents on Biden’s extortion of the Ukrainian government until after Trump’s impeachment trial.

Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch in September sued the State Department for documents related to Joe Biden’s involvement in the firing of Viktor Shokin, the Ukrainian prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden and Burisma Holdings.

Joe Biden’s drug addict son Hunter was sitting on the board of Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian natural gas company and being paid by some accounts over $200,000 a month even though he had zero experience in the field.

Then-Vice President Joe Biden, who was tasked to oversee US dealings with Ukraine, threatened to withhold over $1 billion in loan guarantees to Ukraine unless they fired Viktor Shokin.

Biden bragged about shaking down Ukraine and getting Mr. Shokin fired during a 2018 speech to the Council on Foreign Relations.

Instead of investigating Biden for corruption and extortion, the Democrats impeached President Trump for wanting to work with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to ferret out Biden corruption.

The State Department told Judicial Watch that it hasn’t even started searching for the documents and won’t be releasing anything until the end of January.

Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton blasted the State Department and said “Pompeo needs to get on the ball.”

There’s obviously more people involved in the Ukraine mess than the Bidens.

Is this all part of the plan by the deep state? To keep buried all the pertinent info and REAL evidence against them? NOT Trump, but THEM meaning Pelosi. Romney Biden and the rest? OR this information exposes more that are involved and will actually flip the tables over in Washington DC, the District of Corruption

Trump can order them to release. Enough of these skanks already. Trump should declassify everything from the last 30 years.

That ol’ 10 Million Patriots March on DC and the swamp things that infest our gubamint seems more and more likely as things are developing..

Coups Happen and so do Revolutions.. it doesn’t seem to matter what form of gubamint has been adopted.

Sad to say, there are always evil people willing to exploit and undercut the rule of law by any means necessary to achieve their desired result.

Just more evidence President Trump has very little control of the executive branch.

Yes. The GOP Senate scuttled Ratcliffe for DNI due to their fear POTUS would have a strong ally in that post. It’s been reported former DNI Coates was a major road block in draining the swamp. Time and again we see Senate confirmed positions being the problem. That is not a coincidence.

Just what I thought when I read the headline.

OTOH, Pompeo and Trump seem to be very close so I suspect that Pompeo is working from a Trump timetable. It's very hard to argue that Trump has bad timing.

The swamp always takes care of their own no matter who is President.

There is not equal justice.

Annoying, but you don’t need to prove that there was Biden Corruption. You just need to prove that there was reason to suspect Biden corruption, and clearly there is reason for that. THe Biden bragging tape alone suffices.

But we would all like to see Biden’s corruption exposed and Biden hauled away in chains even as Trump is exonerated.
