Don't ask me. Ask most of the Planet who wanted him gone, it seems for corrupt conduct. I am just a reader of what is written, not a player here.
I want to repeat...if Biden has been naughty, I don't care if he goes down. But, Hunter was being investigated by Authorities in Ukraine. It is the expected job of Lawyers representing a person that they meet with Prosecutors. That is par for the course.
No. What goes on in Ukraine is our business when it involves corruption of a sitting Vice President and now presidential candidate. Damn sure is our business.
The important thing is, Who wanted that prosecutor fired and the investigation dropped. We deserve to find out, don't we?
To the extent that you attempt to control the investigation of it? The business of the USA is to allow the foreign power to get on with the job, and NOT interfere with the administration of THEIR justice.
You and the rest of the planet may be interested to read the findings of The Hill investigative journalist John Solomon. He spoke to the Ukraine prosecutor's office, the Ukraine embassy, the US State Dept. and Barisma Oil reps. According to his reports from 18 months of research, Joe Biden tried more than once to get the Ukrainian prosecutor, Sholkin, fired. He was not worried about the complete corruption investigation--just the Barisma Oil investigation and Hunter Biden. He found that Joe Biden finally blackmailed the Ukrainians to fire the prosecutor with the $1 billion dollar loan. Sholkin maintained his honesty and refused to quit until asked do it "as a patriotic act for the country". He also found that Hunter's attorneys flew to Kiev one week after the resignation to meet the new prosecutor. In the minutes of the meeting, they admitted that Sholkin was innocent of corruption. Oh, and the attorney for the whistleblower works for a law firm that advertises as much as $100,000 for leaks
So you do understand the meaning of upthread. Watch the video of Biden bragging about shutting down the prosecutor in Ukraine.
That’s the point - don’t just eat what you are being spoon-fed - research on your own and think for yourself. “The whole world being against that prosecutor” is manufactured BS by liberal mass media because that prosecutor was on the job for just 13 months! There is no way you can prosecute a high profile case this fast.
When Biden’s son is paid $600K per year by Burisma to gain access to the VP that’s in our national interest.
Most of Europe and the USA wanted him fired. Have a read: https://www.rferl.org/a/why-was-ukraine-top-prosecutor-fired-viktor-shokin/30181445.html
Look him up on Wikipedia. Are you really disputing the fact that Shokin was on the job for just 13 months?
You've got to be kidding me! Supposing Trump had been the VP at the time, and he was suspected of getting the Ukrainian prosecutor fired to stop an investigation into corruption in a corporation where his son was sitting on the board of directors, making millions. Would you be so sanguine about "letting the Ukranians get on with the job"? No you wouldn't. They WEREN'T getting on with the job, Aussie! The prosecutor was fired, and the investigation was dead in the water! As a lawyer you should be against firing prosecutors for corrupt reasons, thwarting the administration of justice.
I know you are not that concerned. I just wanted a platform to blow out all the Trump frother excuses for Joe Biden. I hope I did a bonzer job.
A fair bit of that is true....many wanted him fired for exactly NOT doing his job, which included investigating Biden Jnr. So, he was fired, and replaced with someone Trump was really happy with.
Bonzer? Mate, that went out with Dad and Dave. I don't recall even Hogan "Crocodile Dundee" invoking it.
And yet Biden bragged about the fiscal coercion he used to get the prosecutor fired ??? Curious that your link is from 2019 and not from 2016.
Someone Trump was happy with? Joe's blackmail of the Ukrainians happened in early 2016--well before Donald Trump was elected president.No one gave him a chance to win then. The idea that "many" wanted Sholkin fired for NOT doing his job is a MYTH. One man and one man only got him fired. He was fired because he would not lay off investigating Barisma Oil and Hunter Biden. His dad came to his rescue by blackmail. That has been exposed after an 18-month investigation by The Hill investigative journalist John Solomon. He will be posting interviews, emails and minutes of meeting by parties concerned. His findings run to 450 pages.
