It should be generally agreed upon that Hunter Biden was on the Burisma board and his qualifications for that role were really thin. Hunter Biden admitted it in an interview himself.

Likewise, Joe Biden bragged on video that he got the Ukrainian prosecutor fired by using a threat of withholding foreign aid.

Those two facts could be coincidence, but they could also be related.

Was the Ukrainian prosecutor pursuing Burisma at the time he was fired? Did Biden know about it? It seems like the only way to prove the whole “false narrative” bit is to answer the question “what did the Vice President know, and when did he know it?”

.... Oh ... OK.... Well ... That's settle it .... It's the AP so obviously they are the Paramount Experts and Paragons of Legal Knowledge and Advice ... Their word alone should hold up as a defense in a legal court case.

.... Yup .... Guess the Democrats were right all along ......

I stopped believing anything Snopes, Fact Checkers and MSM that comes out saying what I and others see and hear with our own ears. They are political tools and are biased engage in propaganda for the benefit of those they support.

“false narrative” is one of the Media phrases that lets you know the manure truck is about to dump its load.

Joe Biden has been in Fed Gov’t for 40 years.

What other Prosecutors has he demanded be Fired?

It’s silly to say the Prosecutor was corrupt. A Corrupt Prosecutor could only exist in a Corrupt Gov’t.

If the Government is Corrupt, you have bigger issues than one Prosecutor.

This guy was targeted amongst all the questionable peeps in Ukraine?

And Ukraine matches a pattern. China was giving Hunter $$$ and diamonds. Joe was the point man for China, too.

And why were Joe’s kid and Kerry’s kid involved with Ukraine companies?

Ukraine is one of the most corrupt places on earth. The people are great, but the corruption is mind boggling.

I work in aerospace, we have a Ukrainian made coater. It broke so the boss says “see if you can send the parts to the Ukraine until we get our coater fixed.

Call goes like this:

Me: “I need parts coated”

Ukrainian: “sure no problem. You mark parts scrap. send them. We coat them, send them back with scrap tags. Deal?”

Me: “No deal. These are commercial airline parts. I need coating certs. I have to put FAA tags on these parts”. (Scrapped parts can NEVER go back in an airplane)

Ukrainian: “No problem. You mark parts scrap. send them. We coat them, send them back with scrap tags. You throw scrap tags away. You don’t pay until certs show up in separate shipment. Deal?”

The Associated Press (AP) described the matter of Joe Biden’s leveraging of U.S. foreign aid to pressure Ukraine to fire a prosecutor investigating corruption at Burisma — a Ukrainian energy company upon whose board of directors Hunter Biden sat — in order to protect his second son as a “false narrative.”

The only thing false about it is through omission: Pelosi and Romney have/had family members drawing money from Burisma, too. Biden could arguably be protecting his cronies, too!

Joe Biden, looking thru a sea of corruption to demand one Prosecutor Investigating his son’s company be fired in six hours is akin

to Bill Clinton “ministering” troubled Monica Lewinsky.
The Media said that wasn’t true and Betty Currie would never be a part of such a disgusting thing.


When do US Politicians decide people are fired in Foreign Countries.


Wonder why Joe didn’t just demand he’d be charged?
That would be more defensible than this.

Associated Press appears to be swimming in female reporters, who have a decided agenda and it shows and it is not pleasant.

Ass Press has become “Pussified.”

And not many people are paying attention to their opinions, no reports, but opinions.
