Probe of Burisma was active when Joe Biden forced prosecutor’s firing, Hunter's documents show
Just the News ^ | 10/13/23 | Steven Richards

Emails obtained from Hunter Biden’s laptop, documents released recently by the House Ways and Means Committee, and Devon Archer’s testimony call into question a long-held narrative that a Ukrainian investigation into Burisma Holdings was “dormant” in fall 2015 when then-Vice President Joe Biden intervened to force the firing of Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin.

In fact, the Ukrainian energy company was acutely concerned about Shokin’s investigation and wanted it closed, the memos show.

A CNN fact-check parotted the administration's narrative that “Shokin was not prosecuting Burisma,” after then-President Donald Trump made the claim during the 2020 election. “While there had been an investigation of the company, Shokin's former deputy, Vitaliy Kasko, has said that it was dormant at the time of Joe Biden's intervention,” CNN wrote.

But documents from Hunter Biden laptop released by a Congressional committee last week, and testimony from Hunter Biden associate and former Burisma board member Devon Archer show Burisma believed that Shokin was actively investigating the company. ....

Shoken was fired at Joe Biden's direction because he WAS investigating Burisma and corruption. Not because he was not. Biden was worried the bribery money would be stopped and his involvement would be uncovered if the investigation had been allowed to continue.

Shoken was fired at Joe Biden’s direction because he WAS investigating Burisma and corruption.

Because PedoJoe proudly bragged that he personally was the reason, loudly, proudly, and with no hesitation. Or Ukraine “doesn’t get the money”.

Or is that the one time he was lying and didn’t get caught?

Sooner or later turns out everything Biden says is a lie.

Even his getting seated as a “president” was a godawful lie.

Biden at Council on Foreign Relations, 2018...
“I said we’re not going to give you the billion dollars. They said ‘you can’t do that, you have no authority, you’re not the president. I said call [President Obama], I told you you’re not getting a billion dollars.”

“If the prosecutor’s not fired, you’re not getting the money.”

“Well son of a bitch, he got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid.”

Only Biden is stupid enough to brag about his corruption at a public meeting.

One of the most disturbing things heard last week was old Joe saying: “I give you my word as a Biden.”

Exactly Traitor Joe extorts a county brags about it in public forum then Trump looks into it so they impeach Trump and put the show trial on national TV. Tells you how far we have fallen

Shoken was fired at Biden’s direction b/c Biden was worried the bribery money would be stopped
and his own corrupt involvement would be uncovered if the investigation was allowed to continue.


N-i-c-e insight.

Most people are not old enough to remember when Biden ran for president the FIRST time and why he lost.

He was caught plagiarizing

Pedo Joe has ALWAYS been a LIAR
