Joe and Hunter Biden are contradicting each other about the extent of the former vice president’s knowledge regarding his son’s shadowy Ukraine business dealings.
“I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings,” Biden angrily told reporters, before accusing President Donald Trump of abusing his power by urging the Ukrainian government to investigate the matter.
The former vice president’s claim is contradicted by Hunter Biden’s own words. The younger Biden admitted during a series of interviews for a New Yorker profile published in June that he in fact had discussed his foreign business interests with his father on at least one occasion.
“Dad said, ‘I hope you know what you are doing,’ and I said, ‘I do'” Hunter Biden told the magazine.
The contradicting stories only underscore multiple unanswered questions already plaguing the situation. At the center of controversy is how and why Hunter Biden was asked to join the Bursima board of directors in April 2014, despite not having any experience with Ukraine or the energy industry. At the same time Hunter Biden was tapped for the $83,000 a month job, his father was the Obama administration’s point man on Ukraine.
The same month Hunter Biden joined the group, Great Britain froze accounts belonging to Burisma founder, Mykola Zlochevsky, under suspicion of money laundering. Zlochevsky, a former Ukrainian minister of natural resources, would later be accused of corruption for using his office to approve oil and gas licenses to companies under his control.
The former vice president became entangled in the matter when he pushed the government of Ukraine to fire the country’s top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who was investigating the company and Zlochevsky for wrongdoing in 2016. Shokin’s successor closed the investigation.

Like father, like son: rotten to the core.
But they wear nice coats.
Joe is not intelligent enough to lie as well as a Clinton or Obama. He just spews feces from his mouth like a goose from its butt.
Hunter is an incompetent drug addict playing off his father’s position of power.
Remember Billy Carter? Hunter is not much smarter.
Windsurfer John Kerry .... the politician whose hobby and political behavior both depend on which way the wind blows.

Billy was pretty smart, he just drank too much.
John Kerry’s son is up to his eyeballs in this alongside Hunter Biden.
Those two kids were out to enrich themselves by selling access. The Chinese took full advantage of it.
This Ukraine scandal is probably the end of the road for Biden’s Whitehouse run.
I would be very interesting to learn all the details of how Hunter Biden and the Kerry relative got involved in Ukraine and were paid lavish sums of money.
Whether this is the end of Biden or not, Hunter Biden role in foreign business must be detailed and fully disclosed. Like today.
And they get away with it like all the other criminal Rats because they RINO party does absolutely NOTHING about it. Now Pelosi is screaming impeachment over the ridiculous reason that Trump talked to the Ukraine about Biden, but of course nothing happens to Biden and the RINO party will just sit back and allow this ridiculous crap to happen
Shame Billy wasn’t the president, he got all the brains in that family.
Yeah, but President Trump is the bad guy. A whistleblower who did not actually hear his telephone call with the President of the Ukraine knows a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy who claims that President Trump may have asked about this matter during his phone call.
I almost want the House to impeach Trump.
So I can watch Lyndsey Graham subpoena Joe and his drug-addict son and put them under oath with Rudy doing the questioning.
Here's another Joe and Hunter bedtime story.
<><> The son of the VP of the US gets a $50K per month job w/ a strategic Ukrainian energy company,
<><> in a war-ravaged area then-President Obama is making foreign policy decisions about......
<><> Joe Biden's not even curious enough to ask his son about it at Thanksgiving dinner?
<><> Must be common for Biden family to get big money jobs in places at war with Russia....
<><> Especially countries w/ their hands out for billions in US foreign aid.
During the Obama Admin, then-VP Joe Biden took his chronically jobless son Hunter on an official trip to China. China gave Hunter a billion dollar check for his "equity fund." Did "middle-class Joe" sell out the United States to China to set his son up in a billion dollar business? Hunter Biden also had connections to jailed crook Allen Stanford A fund of hedge funds run by two members of Vice President Joe Biden's family was marketed exclusively by companies controlled by Texas financier R. Allen Stanford, who is facing Securities and Exchange Commission accusations of engaging in an $8 billion fraud.
The $50 million fund was jointly branded between the Bidens' Paradigm Global Advisors LLC and a Stanford Financial Group entity and was known as the Paradigm Stanford Capital Management Core Alternative Fund. Stanford-related companies marketed the fund to investors......--snip--rest at WSJ paywall (Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
=========================================
Hunter Biden - smoking meth & wrecking rental cars, while making $85K a month for Ukrainians
The incident in Arizona with the rental car took place on October 28th, 2016 - a period of time that Hunter was serving on the Burisma Board of Directors and getting paid very well. Not many meth-heads can contribute real value to a company's Board of Directors. But Hunter's different....his dad was VP.
One drug addict, one demented loser, two criminals.
Funny how the media is scared to death to investigate the facts here and instead want to, for the 100th time, indict Trump with zero evidence. [ oboy, they got Trump this time /s ]
Bottom line, this story is impeccable timing to put the final nail in the Biden hopes. So soon we formally move on to Liz Warren - who in my estimation may lead the Democrats to a Trump electoral blowout.
Because Kerry's son also unethically cashed in.
It was already over, this will just make it sooner.
Even the most incalcitrant leftists cannot escape the realization that the left represents unmitigated evil, though many, suffused themselves with evil, will continue to support it.
Whether or not a sufficient number will awaken in time to save America from destruction remains to be seen, but, whether in time or after the fall, all will ultimately awaken.
$85,000 a month? That’s all the American people need to know to see the facts of this Biden corruption.
The Ukrainian officials wanted to hand over to Trump administration officials, evidence of the Obama administration’s misconduct.
John Solomon at The Hill reported: According to interviews with more than a dozen Ukrainian and U.S. officials, Ukraine’s government under recently departed President Petro Poroshenko and, now, Zelensky has been trying since summer 2018 to hand over evidence about the conduct of Americans they believe might be involved in violations of US law during the Obama years.
