Winn Dixie is correct. The Burisma scandal was largely fiction, concocted by Rudy Giuliani, Lev Parnas and Igor Furman, and Trump fell for it, hook, line and sinker.
Now Biden's trip to China where he hauled Hunter along on the Vice Presidential jet to do business deals, and Joe telegraphing the IRS to go easy on his son actually merit attention. Burisma is a dead end for any Republicans looking to dig up serious dirt on Joe Biden.
It does show how Hunter shamelessly sold the Biden family name though. Mykola Zlochevsky owns Burisma. He's a Ukrainian oligarch who served as Ukrainian Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources in a strongly pro-Russian government. During that stint in office, he corruptly issued valuable natural gas permits issued to Burisma. The fact that the son of the Vice President of the United States was on his board of directors probably enabled Burisma to retain the natural gas properties when the Ukrainian government changed hands. And it might just have kept Zlochevsky out of a Ukrainian jail.
The removal of Viktor Shokin, the prosecutor general of Ukraine, would have happened with or without Biden. Shokin's removal if anything hurt Burisma, because he was slow walking corruption investigations. The decision to threaten to withhold the $1 billion loan from Ukraine was, despite his bragging, not Joe Biden's. It was something the State Department, the IMF, the EU and the World Bank came up with jointly. Originally Posted by Tiny

Joe Biden was in the bottom of his class at the University of Delaware and Syracuse University law school. He probably wouldn't have graduated if he hadn't plagiarized other peoples work, a habit he carried on into his political career.
your claim that the EU, England, the World Bank and the state dept all thought Shokin was "corrupt" is nonsense. they were the corrupt ones so of course they had to deflect to cover their corruption.
it's all on Barry Soetoro the real traitor Originally Posted by The_Waco_Kid

So would Barrack, or Barry as you call him, and Hillary have trusted Biden to call the shots on a billion dollar loan to Ukraine? Would you if you were in Barry's shoes? Well, I guess it's possible he did. Biden was looking around for something to do while he was Vice President. And Obama didn't really think much of his VP. But did let him be point man on Ukraine. Still I think the decision to threaten to withhold the loan wasn't Biden's. Originally Posted by Tiny
