The video of Joe Biden, as Barack Obama’s vice president, stunningly relating how he used a billion dollars of American tax money to threaten Ukrainian officials and coerce them into firing a prosecutor looking into Burisma, which was paying his son Hunter $1 million a year, continues to stun.
In fact, on a trip to Ukraine, he told officials to can prosecutor Viktor Shokin, or lose out on the American aid. He gave them only a few hours to comply, and Shokin was fired.
Biden said, “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.” He said he was leaving in six hours, and “If the prosecutor’s not fired, you’re not getting the money. Well son of a b—-, he got fired.”
Now a new investigative report by John Solomon at Just the News traces how just a few weeks before State, Treasury and Justice Department officials had Shokin was making good progress on anti-corruption reforms so the $1 billion loan guarantee could be made available. Shokin even got a letter to that effect. . .
Memos drafted in the Biden camp at that time abruptly turned America’s direction, stating, to Ukraine, “There is wide agreement that anti-corruption must be at the top of this list, and that reforms must include an overhaul of the Prosecutor General’s Office, including removal of Prosecutor General Shokin, who is widely regarded as an obstacle to fighting corruption, if not a source of the problem.” (Read more from “Startling Report Reveals Agendas Joe, Hunter Biden Had for Ukraine” HERE)
