Romney: Hunter Biden Probe a ‘Political Exercise’ — ‘Not the Legitimate Role of Government’
Breitbart ^ | September 17 2020 | PAM KEY

Posted on 09/17/2020 1:21:26 PM PDT by knighthawk

Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) called the Hunter Biden-Burisma investigation was “not the legitimate role of government,” during a Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee business meeting on Wednesday.

Homeland Security Committee chairman Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) has defended the investigation into former Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter’s dealings with Ukraine and his role on the board of energy company Burisma.

I thought Romney was done.

A has been, past his freshness date.

He folded and gave obama and biden a second term.

What a vote choice the GOP-e gave us in 2008 and 2012. Talk about throwing the game.

Piss off, Mittens Obamney.
He’s up to his neck in Ukraine, too. Maybe even being blackmailed to stand up to El Trumpo or face exposure.

Romney had staffers tied to the Ukrainian corruption ... would bet as a globalist he is deeply invested in the corruption.

My, how short Mitt’s memory is:

https://arizonadailyindependent.com/2019/09/29/treaty-with-ukraine-on-mutual-legal-assistance-in-criminal-matters/

And this treaty for the purpose of mutual efforts toward corruption investigation within the two countries was signed by Bill Clinton in 1999.

Biden was part of the corruption:

Mitt’s son involved with Burisma/? That’s peanuts:

https://www.tierneyrealnewsnetwork.com/post/romney-kerry-biden-mccain-pelosi-schiff-mueller-clinton-are-tied-to-sketchy-ukraine-deals

So, saying it is not the work of government in this case is a lie, and they know it. And because so many of them are a$$ deep in it is why they are saying it. No shock here. I was working for Uncle Sugar at that time and was in on the work of the treaty. And I felt at the time they were stupid for doing it.

But that ain’t all of it. During Joe Biden’s tenure as vice president, a group of investment and consulting firms run by Hunter Biden and partner Devon Archer “pursued business with international entities that had a stake in American foreign-policy decisions, sometimes in countries where connections implied political influence and protection,” the New York Times reported. One of the opportunities Hunter Biden found was in China. “In 2013, then-Vice President Biden and his son Hunter flew aboard Air Force Two to China,” Schweizer wrote in a summary of his findings on FoxNews.com. “Ten days later, Hunter Biden’s firm scored a $1.5 billion deal with a subsidiary of the Chinese government’s Bank of China.”

The company’s name was BHR (Shanghai) Equity Investment Fund Management Company. It has grabbed global media attention for its links with Hunter Biden, the son of former United States vice-president Joe Biden, after US President Donald Trump fired a barrage of corruption allegations at him and requested China investigate the Bidens’ financial activities in the country. It is estimated that HB walked out of China with $1.5 billion from the company. He was a 10% stockholder and the CEO.

Makes you feel kind of dirty doesn’t it?

I wonder if Romney realizes just how deeply he is despised by most Republicans. He will never hold an office higher than the one he holds now, and he may even lose that if someone in Utah can mount a credible challenge.

“I wonder if Romney realizes just how deeply he is despised by most Republicans”

He probably thinks people worship him, since he’s in line to be a God with his own planet. At least in the view of the Temple Garment crowd.

Reminds me of when Hastert defended William Jefferson D-LA.

We eventually found out why.

Bingo, Sen. Romney’s former advisor Joseph Cofer Black served on the board of Burisma, the skeezy Ukrainian company. Hunter Biden also served on the board of Burisma.
I believe one of the Romney son’s had dealings in Ukraine too.
This probe is getting too close for comfort for Sen. Romney.
