While the mainstreams are trying to lead the gullible among us down another empty rabbit hole, searching in vain for something – anything – to pin on Donald Trump, they’re furiously ignoring the real scandal: a former vice president and 2020 presidential candidate strong arming a foreign head-of-state to protect his own son’s nefarious business dealings ~
In his own words, with video cameras rolling, Biden described how he threatened Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in March 2016 that the Obama administration would pull $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees, sending the former Soviet republic toward insolvency, if it didn’t immediately fire Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin.
Here’s a video (although the sound is really poor). Speaking at the Council on Foreign Relations on Jan 23rd, 2018, old Joe was full of braggadocio ~
I’d gotten a commitment from Poroshenko and from Yatsenyuk that they would take action against a state prosecutor, and they didn’t. So they were walking out to the press conference and I said “Nah, I’m not gonna give… we’re not gonna give you the billion dollars.”
They said, “You have no authority! You’re not the president. The president said –” And I said “Call him!” I said “I’m telling you, you’re not getting a billion dollars.”
I said “You’re not getting a billion and I’m gonna be leaving here, I think it was what, six hours.” I said, “We leave in six hours. If the prosecutor’s not fired you’re not getting the money.”
Well, son of a bi**h – he got fired! And, they put in place someone who was solid.
Yes, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. was quite proud of himself. Imagine him wielding that kind of corrupt power from the highest office in the land.
The prosecutor Biden was referring to was Viktor Shokin, former Prosecutor General of Ukraine, who just happened to be investigating Biden’s son Hunter and his relationship with Burisma Holdings, the largest private gas producer in Ukraine. John Solomon, a contributor for The Hill has been investigating this story for months ~
Interviews with a half-dozen senior Ukrainian officials confirm Biden’s account, though they claim the pressure was applied over several months in late 2015 and early 2016, not just six hours of one dramatic day. Whatever the case, Poroshenko and Ukraine’s parliament obliged by ending Shokin’s tenure as prosecutor. Shokin was facing steep criticism in Ukraine, and among some U.S. officials, for not bringing enough corruption prosecutions when he was fired […]
Shokin told me in written answers to questions that, before he was fired as general prosecutor, he had made “specific plans” for the investigation that “included interrogations and other crime-investigation procedures into all members of the executive board, including Hunter Biden.”
And yet the leftist media has completely ignored the senator’s arrogant admission of what was essentially extortion. Talk about journalistic malpractice! Biden’s blatant abuse of power is right in front of them – on video tape for the whole world to see – and instead they’re peddling another baseless hoax about the president. (The Ukrainians themselves are denying the ridiculous allegations.)
How can anyone actually take the Democrats and the sock-puppet mainstreams seriously anymore?

Triangulating Manafort — Obama, Clinton and Ukraine ~ This excerpt from Andrew C. McCarthy’s new book “Ball of Collusion: The Plot to Rig and Election and Destroy a Presidency” provides more evidence of Biden family financial intrigue – not just in Ukraine but China as well ~
While the Veep pushed the International Monetary Fund to grant Ukraine a $17.5 billion loan package, Burisma lavishly compensated Hunter’s law firm, to the tune of more than $3 million over an eighteen-month span. A lot of money? Sure, but it’s chump change compared to the Chinese government’s $1.5 billion infusion in a joint investment fund with Hunter Biden while Vice President Biden, administration point-man on China issue, turned a blind eye to Beijing’s aggression in the South China Sea.

Buried deep in CNN’s report (about the so-called whistleblower – aka – fabulist) is this outrageous jewel: The whistleblower had zero first hand knowledge of the call. Anything this intel person is revealing of the president’s conversation is hearsay. Thus, as Mark Levin tweeted, “he’s not a whistleblower at all,” and his information is “unreliable and not better than gossip.”
The media’s new theme song is “Second Hand News.” Followed by their other Fleetwood Mac remake, “Don’t Stop Thinking About What to Make Up Tomorrow.”

Like Russian Collusion, Ukraine Hysteria Is Pure Projection By Media And Democrats ~
(This latest effort by the Left to smear Trump is) just another manufactured narrative peddled by partisans desperate to prevent anyone from shining a spotlight on their own shenanigans. Just as the Russian collusion conspiracy begins and ends with Hillary Clinton, the Ukraine corruption scandal begins and ends with Joe and Hunter Biden. And just as they did with the investigation of the Russia hoax, their media allies will do everything in their power to make sure that evidence never sees the light of day.
