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.

Or the FBAR if he had any foreign accounts? Inquiring IRS minds would like to know.
I agree it’s not right. Anyone being paid by a foreign entity will side with them against American interests.
Oh someone find out if Joe filled the correct tax form (the FARA I think it is) you know the one Manafort is in jail for Not Filling.....
ICYMI, they'yre all proceeding on under a claimed impeachment inquiry, under a veil of near-total secrecy, apparently based one (or more) confidential informer's complaint.
Read the White House Counsel Cipollone's 10/8/2019 letter regarding the Executive Branch push-back to the Congressional Dems' charges and illegal initiatives.
Given two basic facts, 1) Joe Biden's receipt of $900,000 in consulting fee from Ukraine and 2) PDJT being the country's chief law enforcement officer and final Foreign Policy authority (of which neither function Congress has legitimate oversight), there is zero plausibility of PDJT having committed an impeachable offense in the Zelensky phone call.
JOE.????.... WHAT???? Not Hunter?
ICYMI, several Dem-led committees are proceeding in parallel under a claimed "impeachment inquiry," under a veil of near-total secrecy, apparently based one (or more) confidential informer's complaint.

They are 6 hours earlier than us, so we can breakfast with the President of Ukraine!! Can’t wait!
Like, with a cloth?
THis is a LIE? A FAKE NEWS STORY?? CRAP.
The article addresses that and distinguishes between Joe and Hunter. IOW the author doesn't seem to have the two mixed up when describes the payment for senior's "lobbying" activities, not Hunter sitting on a board as had been the focus thus far.
Completely devastating if true but yeah, we need more info.
“we’re going to need larger power stations to support all the popcorn machines being plugged in”
Yep.... start building them thar nuke plants.
Or better yet.... Thorium reactors.
They very well could. I agree.
They receive more than enough of a pension to live comfortably.
A man of the pee-pole!
I find it pretty interesting that we have not heard word one from his previous boss... Wonder where Obama is hiding?? I have not really paid much attention, but have not heard him saying much of anything lately either...
I though it was funny on the Sunday shows that Brennan and Clapper were out there saying they did not know why they were being investigated now, they were just following Obama’s orders...
BOOM
BOOM>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Really big BOOM!
Hey, Joe should be gone now within 11 days.
He is finito.
Wanna bet this is hardly even discussed at the next debate?
Yes, along with book deals, speaking fees, phony foundations, etc.

Why underestimate the power of a Giuliani tweet?
Or even a Presidential tweet for that matter.
Nancy and Schitt issue tons of propaganda, looking forward to seeing a broadside from their victims.
More proof that Trump should be impeached! /s
