Ukrainian Prosecutor Joe Biden FIRED for Investigating Hunter’s Burisma Just Exposed $350 BILLION in U.S. Taxpayer Dollars Meant for Ukraine Going Straight to Globalist Networks
The Gateway Pundit ^ | August 14, 2026 | Jim Hᴏft

Former Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin, the official Joe Biden publicly threatened and forced out of office in 2016, claims in his book Biden’s Corruption and War: The True Story of the 1 Billion Dollar Prosecutor that hundreds of billions of American taxpayer dollars connected to Ukraine were recycled through political interests and “globalist networks.”

According to a Blaze Media column citing Shokin’s first-person account, massive sums of U.S. aid intended for Ukraine were recycled through political and globalist networks.

He alleges $350 billion in American taxpayer money was diverted into these opaque channels amid the chaos of war. Arms deals were tainted by corruption.

Wartime disorder allegedly facilitated trafficking of Ukrainian women and children. The book paints the conflict itself as a vehicle for enrichment and influence far beyond the battlefield.

Shokin was the prosecutor general investigating Mykola Zlochevsky and Burisma Holdings, the same corrupt energy company that put Hunter Biden on its board and paid him an eye-watering salary for “expertise” he didn’t have.

Shokin says his office was moving against the company, seizing assets, and getting uncomfortably close to the Biden family connections. That’s when the pressure campaign from Washington intensified.

Joe Biden later famously boasted about it on video: he told Ukrainian officials they weren’t getting the billion dollars unless the prosecutor was gone. “Well, son of a bitch, he got fired.”

Biden called himself the “Vice King” in Ukraine circles for a reason. Shokin’s book details the meetings, the influence over then-President Petro Poroshenko, and the coordinated effort that ended his tenure.

According to Blaze:

Shokin presents a stark thesis: He argues that the war in Ukraine became a vehicle for corruption and hidden agendas extending far beyond the battlefield.

Julian Assange explained it succinctly enough. The neocons had to stoke the war in Ukraine to replace the wind down of the war in Afghanistan. It was the only way to keep up the multi-billion dollar scale looting that goes on with these adventures.

Same as it always was.

Smedley Butler:

In the World War a mere handful garnered the profits of the conflict. At least 21,000 new millionaires and billionaires were made in the United States during the World War. That many admitted their huge blood gains in their income tax returns. How many other war millionaires falsified their tax returns no one knows.

  How many of these war millionaires shouldered a rifle? How many of them dug a trench? How many of them knew what it meant to go hungry in a rat-infested dug-out? How many of them spent sleepless, frightened nights, ducking shells and shrapnel and machine gun bullets? How many of them parried a bayonet thrust of an enemy? How many of them were wounded or killed in battle?

No US president or vice president has ever before nor after directed and demanded another country fire a prosecutor.

This is why it is important that you get out and vote as hard as you can in November, so the final opportunity to re-establish the rule of law in our country is not lost!

It is only now that the real receipts are trickling in. If the Republicans lose either the House or the Senate, then there will be no justice!!!!

thank you for your attention, clicks, views, likes, and votes.

“Well, son of a bitch, he got fired.”
That was one hell of a damning video clip of the Biden corruption. Western media ignored it; they were part and parcel of the corruption.

I just asked Google how much we have sent to Ukraine (mainly to see if Shokin's number was mainly for defense contractors for the weapons sent). I got this:
The United States has allocated approximately $195 billion in total spending related to the war in Ukraine as of March 2026, with about $127 billion to $130 billion directly aiding the Ukrainian government and the remainder funding U.S. military activities in Europe and regional support. Of the direct aid, roughly $67 billion to $76 billion comprises military assistance, including weapons, equipment, and training, while the rest covers economic, humanitarian, and budget support.

Key breakdowns of U.S. aid:

Military aid: ~$67–76 billion committed, with ~$31.7 billion drawn from existing DoD stockpiles via Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA).

Economic and budget support: ~$32.6 billion, often structured as loans or reimbursements through institutions like the World Bank.

Humanitarian aid: ~$2.5 billion, including refugee support and demining efforts.

U.S. operational costs: A significant portion of allocated funds replenishes U.S. defense stocks and supports American troops stationed in Europe.

Independent analyses suggest the actual delivered value of military aid may be lower—around $18.3 billion—due to overvaluation of older equipment and undelivered items, though official U.S. figures remain higher.

AI-generated answer. Please verify critical facts.

So the skim is almost twice as much as we have spent in total. Something isn't adding up on one or both sides.

Everything, absolutely everything about Ukraine and senile Joe stinks. The worst part? Most everyone bought into the Slobo Ukraine mantra senile Joe spewed.....$$$ billions of our tax dollars went down the filthy Ukrainian toilet...now we know why.

The only consolation is President Trump is well aware of the Ukrainian cesspool,
and thankfully has ended the waste.

The question is where this money actually went. The Russian war against Ukraine was used to spend money domestically in the U.S. for military contracts to send old military to Ukraine, and money was laundered in Ukraine that went elsewhere. Very little of that money actually benefited the Ukrainian military.

No surprise, its Gateway Pundit, not known for its accuracy, with made up numbers (350 billion). They took EVERY bill Congress passed with Ukraine's name in it and added the numbers up, even though the spending was on other costs, like replenishing U.S. defense stocks and supporting American troops stationed in Europe.

Viktor Shokin was a corrupt prosecutor who the International Monetary Fund, the European Union, the US government, foreign investors, and Ukrainian advocates of reform wanted fired.

First Shokin’s predecessor, then Viktor Shokin, and then his successor -- worked to bury the Burisma case. As an example, two months before Hunter Biden joined Burisma's board, British authorities had requested information from Shokin's office as part of an investigation into alleged money laundering by Zlochevskiy. Shokin ignored them.

Remember the snipers (put up to it by Russia) who fired from rooftops down on demonstrated crowds in Kyiv? When they were arrested, Shokin kept coming up with reasons not to prosecute them.

Sometimes, both sides, Shokin and Biden, are corrupt.

Anders Aslund, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council in Washington,wrote that his dismissal came as no surprise. "The amazing thing is not that he was sacked but that it has taken so long," Aslund said. "Petro Poroshenko appointed Shokin to the role in February 2015. From the outset, he stood out by causing great damage even to Ukraine's substandard legal system."

Viktor Shokin, the former Prosecutor General of Ukraine, was widely accused by international diplomats, anti-corruption activists, and Ukrainian reformers of protecting systemic corruption and blocking investigations. He was ousted in March 2016 following heavy pressure from the U.S., EU, and IMF, who viewed him as an obstacle to reform.

Criticisms and Corruption Allegations

Inaction on Corruption: Reformers and watchdogs stated that Shokin failed to prosecute prominent officials or bring meaningful corruption cases to trial.

Blocking Burisma Inquiries: Rather than aggressively pursuing the gas company Burisma Holdings (where Hunter Biden was a board member), Shokin's office was accused of stalling and subverting the active investigations into the firm and its owner.

Internal Resignations: Shokin's own deputy, Vitaly Kasko, resigned in protest, famously labeling Shokin's office a "hotbed of corruption"

Wait. You’re saying no money or arms went to Ukraine under Trump?
