I’ll gladlly give you $16.5 million, if you get me $1 billion.
The Dems would probably like to cut a deal with PDJT. Back off impeachment and Trump backs off Biden investigation. No deal.
If they can’t get a conviction on the Bidens, they’ll never be able to get a conviction. Four laws broken by Bidens according to Greg Jarett...
1)Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (15USC78dd-1)
It is illegal for a U.S. person to coerce or influence through bribery, extort a foreign into taking action that might financially benefit that person, his family or business.
2) Bribery (18USC201b)
Whoever corruptly gives, offers or promises anything of value to a public official to influence that public official is guilty of bribery.
3) Gratuities Act (180SC201)
Giving, offering, or promising anything of value to a public official in exchange for any official act is a violation of the gratuities act.
4) Hobbs Act-Extortion (18USC 1951)
A threat to a foreign official in order to obtain an official benefit affecting interstate or foreign commerce would constitute extortion under the Hobbs act.
Best be careful.
The more Democrat Party corruption that gets uncovered — the more grounds there are for impeachment of Trump.
/s
And Ole Joe didn’t get a cut?
Wouldn’t surprise me. Don’t know if I believe TASS.
Don’t trust Mueller or top level FBI or CIA to investigate. Definitely don’t trust Schiffty. Is anybody honest anymore??
And not a word of this will be brought up as part of UKRAINE GATE in Congress.
LOL, I always cringe when I see a story from Tass.
Some things you just can untrain.
Today's "libbers" are nowhere near as liberated as the characters we grew up with (ex: Nancy Drew)and other TV and movie heroines were until correctness took over.
Yeah... pretty much.
Will Hunter dime out the Kerry’s, Pelosi’s and Schiff’s? Should be interesting....
How are the Dems playing this?
$17 MILLION!! That’s a far cry from the $1 million or $2 million we were led to believe he was paid for his board seat.
so who else connected to high politicians is involved with burisma? how about other organizations/countries?? does anybody have a list of burisma’s board of directors, for example?
PLEASE impeach the president so we can subpoena Hunter and some Ukranian officials about all of this. It will make for GLORIOUS TV ratings.
I’ll bet that if you were to survey ALL federal politicians, you would find that they have a LOT of relatives with cushy, no-show jobs in industries they have no expertise in and countries where they can’t speak the language.
DNA test shows Hunter Biden is father of Arkansas woman's baby
HA HAH!
Here's a clip from the Reuters piece:
After he took office in late August, Ryaboshapka launched a wide-ranging audit of criminal cases to see whether they had been conducted properly. Thirteen of them relate to Burisma founder Mykola Zlochevsky, Ryaboshapka told reporters at a briefing on Wednesday.
Burisma did not respond to a request for comment.
Ryaboshapka’s predecessors oversaw a series of investigations into Zlochevsky, a multimillionaire former minister of ecology and natural resources. The allegations concern tax violations, money-laundering and licences given to Burisma during the period where Zlochevsky was a minister.
Ryaboshapka said Zlochevsky was now suspected of the “theft of government funds on an especially large scale,” but did not provide evidence or details.
Ryaboshapka was speaking after being asked about a document from the general prosecutor’s office that was leaked at a separate press conference by three lawmakers earlier on Wednesday.
The document, only part of which was visible, showed Kulyk suspected Zlochevsky of offenses including using his official position to embezzle 800 million hryvnias ($33 million) of money belonging to the central bank.
The investigation is effectively on hold, however, because the Ukrainian authorities cannot determine Zlochevsky’s whereabouts.
The central bank did not respond to a request for comment.
Giuliani has previously told Reuters he met Kulyk in Paris. He said at that meeting Kulyk echoed allegations that in 2016 Joe Biden as Vice President had tried to have Ukraine’s then-chief prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, fired to stop him investigating Burisma. Biden has accused Giuliani of peddling “false, debunked conspiracy theories” for repeating these allegations.
Kulyk told Reuters in October that he had been investigating Zlochevsky for around two years.
Reuters could not independently verify the extent of Kulyk’s involvement, but a source close to the energy company saw a spike in activity by Kulyk in regards to Burisma after Giuliani’s interest in the company and the Bidens had been conveyed to Kulyk’s then superior, Yuriy Lutsenko.
In late January, Kulyk sent Zlochevsky the first of several summons for questioning, documents seen by Reuters showed.
Zlochevsky has not commented on the summons or an announcement by Ryaboshapka in October that his office was reviewing a series of investigations linked to Zlochevsky.
Maybe Ukraine will indict the Bidens. That would be sweet. Perhaps by treaty Trump may have to honor a request for extradition. That would be sweeter. Biden could then run for President from a jail cell in Ukraine. He’d still get 47% of the vote. I imagine Romney would still vote for Biden.
If only Burisma would sue them for not ever showing up for work.
