Biden accused of pocketing a $5 million bribe while vice president
Washington Times ^ | 6/09/23 | Susan Ferrechio

A paid informant told the FBI that an executive from the Ukrainian energy company Burisma has documents proving he bribed President Biden with $5 million while he was vice president.

The “trusted” and “highly credible” FBI informant said Burisma paid the bribe between 2015 and 2016 to solicit then-Vice President Biden’s help in thwarting a Ukrainian prosecutor who was investigating the company, The Washington Times has confirmed.

Burisma paid an additional $5 million to Hunter Biden, the president’s son, who served on Burisma’s board at the time and received a $1 million annual salary at the energy company. The scheme was concealed using multiple bank accounts, according to the informant.

Details of the FBI informant’s previously undisclosed allegations were revealed after the House Oversight and Accountability Committee was granted access to the FBI memo in a secure room in the basement of the Capitol on June 8.

In response to these allegations, the GOP-led panel plans a round of subpoenas in the coming days that will seek new financial documents from Biden family associates, sources told The Times.

**SNIP**

“It was all bribery, to get [Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin] fired and end the investigation into Burisma,” the informant told the FBI in the memo.

The bribery scheme took place between 2015 and 2016, the informant said, when Burisma was “looking to buy a U.S.-based oil and gas company” and wanted to “make the problems go away” with Mr. Shokin.

I’m sure that the Democrats would have gone easy on President Trump if such an accusation had been made during his time in office.

They would undoubtedly have been quick to call anyone making this accusation against PDJT a “conspiracy theory nut-job.”

Why keep writing about Biden and his crooked deals?

Is it to keep up entertained, and guessing?

NOTHING is going to be done about it, so stop the annoying headlines. They’re sickening.

Biden is winning and the republicans congress is a bunch of losers. So stop it!!!

What is the meaning of the phrase “seriousness of the charge”? By any measure, this charge of bribery certainly meets the standard of “High Crimes” as set forth in the US Constitution, and it is WAY beyond being merely a “misdemeanor”.

Bribery is certainly a very serious charge, and if it in connection with government service, dealing with a foreign entity, then this all rises to the level of treason, an actionable “high crime” if ever there was.

I should certainly think so. Of course I have a tendency to think like a citizen of the “old America.”

They’re all sleazebags. The Democratic news media isn’t going to cover this. Meanwhile, Biden’s chief opponent has to lawyer up.
