Burisma Paid Joe Biden $900,000 for Lobbying – Ukrainian MP
Ukraine News Agency ^ | October 9th 2019

KYIV. Oct 9 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden received $900,000 for lobbying activities from Burisma Group, Ukraine's Verkhovna Rada member Andriy Derkach said citing investigation materials.

Derkach publicized documents which, as he said, "describe the mechanism of getting money by Biden Sr." at a press conference at Interfax-Ukraine's press center in Kyiv on Wednesday.

"This was the transfer of Burisma Group's funds for lobbying activities, as investigators believe, personally to Joe Biden through a lobbying company. Funds in the amount of $900,000 were transferred to the U.S.-based company Rosemont Seneca Partners, which according to open sources, in particular, the New York Times, is affiliated with Biden. The payment reference was payment for consultative services," Derkach said.

He also publicized sums that were transferred to Burisma Group representatives, in particular Hunter Biden, a son of the former U.S. vice president.

"Using political and economic levelers of influencing Ukrainian authorities and manipulating the issue of providing financial aid to Ukraine, Joe Biden actively assisted closing criminal cases into the activity of former Ukrainian Ecology Minister Mykola Zlochevsky, who is the founder and owner of Burisma Group," he said.

Well I’ll be corn popped! … my dad used to say, “Well, I’ll be cow-kicked!”

Isn’t it interesting that earlier today, Biden publicly came out in favor of “impeachment”? Everyone who has implicated or even hinted at as being involved in the Ukraine scandal, has amazingly come out for “impeachment” - including Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi (whose son is involved), Mitt Romney (whose legal advisor is involved), John Kerry (whose son is involved), the Clintons (the Clinton Foundation), etc. The heat is being turned up and the rats are scurrying!

“The article is fake news from a dubious source. Biden Jr. was getting that cash. Rosemont Seneca was “his” compnay. No way he was transferring that cash to Plugs in a traceable way.”

That would make a heckuva lot more sense.

Did Sleepy Joe register as a foreign agent? If not, Paul Manafort is going to have some company...

I think the source is dubious and there aren’t a lot of details. However, hopefully this will lead to a more thorough investigation of the matter. The Ukrainian President is having what is being described as a “marathon” press conference tomorrow, so maybe more info is forthcoming.

But as you say it’s a little weird that Plugs would come out with his call for impeachment precisely today...

Did he pay taxes on that dough? Or did he try to hide it in say a Cyprus Bank account?

Yes, I agree. And that’s what first popped into my mind.

He could have gotten it after being V.P. though.

I don’t think it’s right for people that high up in government to become paid consultants for foreign concerns, or for domestic concerns for that matter.

That’s apparently how ALL these cretins felt. They were sure that PIAPS would win; and none of this corruption would ever see the light of day. But God intervened and Trump won. And the cretins’ Plan-B was pretty well thought out; except for one thing. The dirt they expected to find on Trump, ANY dirt, wasn’t there! Mueller and his henchmen found ZILCH! That, and the zeal and effectiveness of the alternate media revealed the Rats’ guilt!

The Dims think that “obstruction of justice” (1) does not require a prosecutorial process, (2) does not require evidence of a crime, (3) and mearly means doing something the Dims don’t like.
