New Video Links Biden to Ukrainian Corruption – Burisma Indictment Reveals Ex-President Yanukovich Illegally Obtained $7.4 Billion Laundered Thru Fund “Close to US Democratic Party”

 

As we reported at the time the head of Burisma Holdings was indicted in November 2019 in Ukraine.

 

Ukrainian Prosecutor General indicted Burisma owner Nikolai Zlochevsky.

 

The claim alleges that Hunter Biden and his partners received $16.5 million for their ‘services’

 

Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden took a lucrative post on the Burisma Board in 2014.

Hunter Biden was making millions from the corrupt Ukrainian oil and gas company.

 

Memos released earlier this month reveal Burisma Holdings, Hunter Biden’s Ukrainian natural gas company, pressured the Obama State Department to help end the corruption investigation during the 2016 election cycle just one month before then-Vice President Joe Biden forced Ukraine to fire Viktor Shokin, the prosecutor probing his son Hunter.

 

Joe Biden bragged about getting Viktor Shokin fired during a 2018 speech to the Council on Foreign Relations.

The Burisma indictment reveals that former Ukrainian President Yanukovich illegally obtained $17.4 billion and laundered it through an investment fund close to the US Democratic Party.

 

Via Tass.com:

 

The MP explained that this information makes up a part of a large-scale scheme of Zlochevsky’s money laundering that involved politicians from the time of ex-President Viktor Yanukovich who continued this scheme under another (now former) President Pyotr Poroshenko, with the backing of former Governor of the National Bank of Ukraine Valeria Gontareva.

 

“We will reveal the information about the financial pyramid scheme that was created in Ukraine and developed by everyone beginning with Yanukovich and later by Poroshenko. This system is still working under the guidance of the current managerial board of the National Bank, ensuring that money flows in the interest of people who stole millions of dollars, took it offshore and bought Ukrainian public bonds turning them into the Ukrainian sovereign debt,” Dubinksy claimed. He then added that “in both cases of Yanukovich and Poroshenko, Ms. Gontareva and companies she controls were investing the stolen funds.”

 

Another Verkhovna Rada MP, Andrei Derkach, claimed that the US Franklin Templeton Investments management company was also involved in the scheme. “The investigation suggests that the Yanukovichs illegally obtained $7.4 billion and laundered it through an investment fund close to the US Democratic Party as government domestic loan bonds,” he pointed out.

The lawmakers posted video of their announcement back in 2019.

 

This weekend a new video with Ukrainian politician Andrii Derkach revealed more evidence of the Biden family making millions off of the Ukrainian people.

What’s This About? On January 6th, After Overseeing Declaration of the Winner of the 2020 Election, VP Pence Will Jump on a Plane for a Trip Overseas

 

Vice President Mike Pence hasn’t traveled overseas during the entire China Coronavirus campaign. On January 6th, after overseeing the declaration of the winner of the 2020 election, Pence will jump on a flight overseas.

 

NBC New York reports today that after the vote on the electoral college pick for US President on January 6th, VP Pence will travel overseas:

 

 

Vice President Mike Pence is scheduled to travel overseas for the first time during the Covid-19 pandemic…

 

…The Indiana Republican will depart the U.S. on Jan. 6 for a trip that will include stops in Bahrain, Israel and Poland, according to a government document obtained by NBC News. Pence will remain abroad through Jan. 11.

 

It’s unknown why the Vice President decided to travel at this time or if this is some indication of how he is going to act during the proceedings in Washington DC regarding the 2020 election.

 

If he approves the nomination of Joe Biden, he will go down as the greatest traitor in history. If Pence steps up and throws out the electoral votes in certain states where rampant fraud ensued, he will go down in history as one of the most courageous leaders of our generation.

 

America’s dilemma is whether Pence fully understands the record amount of fraud involved in the election and his ability to act appropriately to address it for the sake of the union.

Mysterious Disappearance of Flu in San Diego Prompted Call for Audit of COVID Records

 

One of the most bizarre features of the alleged COVID-19 ‘global pandemic’ has been the mysterious disappearance of the seasonal flu in medical and public health record keeping. It’s as if the Flu just vanished into thin after after being the most common perennial seasonal respiratory virus.

 

As it turns out, recorded seasonal influenza cases have in fact nosedived by 98% across the globe.

 

This improbable phenomenon has led a number of experts to ask, “Has Covid killed off the flu?”

 

“The disappearing act began as Covid-19 rolled in towards the end of our flu season in March. And just how swiftly rates have plummeted can be observed in ‘surveillance’ data collected by the World Health Organisation (WHO),” reported the UK’s Daily Mail.

 

.

Dr Sylvie Briand claimed during a recent press conference that “literally there was nearly no flu in the Southern hemisphere” of the planet Earth in 2020, but gave no real explanation as to why. She then went on to extend this magical thinking saying that, “We hope that the situation will be the same in the Northern Hemisphere.”

Earlier in December, Southern California news outlet KUSI raised the alarm which prompted an audit of COVID statistics in their region…

 

SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – COVID-19 cases continue to increase across California, and here in San Diego County, but flu cases remain extremely low in comparison to this time in previous years.

 

We are well into flu season, but San Diego County’s data for flu infections only shows 36 reported cases so far this year. Carl DeMaio tweeted out this shocking revelation, comparing it to this time in other years saying, “In a typical year we get over 17,073 on average!”

 

DeMaio explained, “if you are going to use a set of numbers like COVID stats to shut down the economy, to take people’s livelihoods away, then we have to really look closely at what those numbers really mean, and whether those numbers are giving us the right picture.” Continuing, “my concern has been from the get go, that we are relying on numbers from government agencies, that may have a different agenda at stake. We would benefit from having a different set of eyes looking at them, such as an auditor or a citizens review committee. Because again, the decisions being made on these data sets are sweeping, the lockdowns are far reaching in terms of their impact.”

DeMaio then said San Diego County has refused to have any look over or vet our local COVID-19 numbers.

 

Chairman of Reform California, Carl DeMaio, joined KUSI’s Jason Austell on Good Morning San Diego to explain why he is calling for a “full audit of the COVID-19 data we are seeing reported from our public health system.”

 

BREAKING – San Diego County data for FLU infections shows only 36 cases so far this year. In a typical year we get over 17,073 on average!

 

Once again, I’m calling for a full audit of the Covid-19 data we are seeing reported from our public health system.

 

— Carl DeMaio (@carldemaio) December 7, 2020

 

As different pressure groups and journalists begin to demand answers from the various health authorities, it’s becoming clear now that there has likely been some degree of widespread, systemic administrative fraud designed to over-inflate COVID-19 numbers to the detriment of every other normal seasonal illness or disease.

Dominion Sends Cease-and-Desist Letter to Witness Who Accompanied Giuliani

 

Melissa Carone, who was introduced as a former contractor for Dominion, appeared alongside Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani in front of Michigan's state legislature. Her testimony, in which she claimed voter fraud, later went viral.

 

On Monday, a cease-and-desist letter emerged, sent by Dominion voting systems to one of the witnesses seen alongside Trump campaign attorney Rudy Giuliani during Michigan's election vote contesting.

 

“Without a shred of corroborating evidence, you have claimed that you witnessed several different versions of voter fraud—ranging from one story involving a van, to other accusations that votes were counted multiple times,” the letter read. “You published these statements even though you knew all along that your attacks on Dominion have no basis in reality.”

 

Dominion attorneys Thomas Clare and Megan Meier sent the letter to Carone on 22 December, after she appeared to position herself as “a prominent leader of the ongoing misinformation campaign by pretending to have some sort of ‘insider knowledge’" regarding Dominion's activities. In reality, the letter said, Carone, who did not testify under oath, "was hired through a staffing agency for one day to clean glass on machines and complete other menial tasks.”

 

In the letter, the company demanded that Carone preserve "all communications" with members of the Trump campaign and legal team, particularly Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Jenna Ellis and L. Lin Wood.

 

Carone confirmed to The Detroit News on Monday that she had received the letter, and did not appear to be concerned about the Dominion move.

 

“I am not concerned about it," Carone said of the letter, cited by the outlet. "They’re scared of me."

 

​In prepared statements during the Michigan hearing that took place earlier in December, Carone, who was not under oath, asserted that "everything that happened at that TCF Center was fraud", referring to Election Day in Detroit. Claiming to be a Dominion contractor, she asserted that she witnessed individual ballots being scanned multiple times and "thousands of ballots" being hidden.

 

A video of her testimony went viral shortly after the hearing, with netizens calling her the "star" of the hearing and suggesting that she was drunk - something that Carone herself denied.

Sen. Kelly Loeffler: Church Camp’s ‘Disgusting’ Child Abuse Allegation Should Disqualify Warnock

 

ATLANTA — Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) described a report about mistreatment of children at a church camp that her opponent, Democrat Rev. Raphael Warnock, oversaw in the early 2000s as “disgusting” and said “it should be disqualifying” for his Senate candidacy, providing her remarks in an exclusive interview Monday with Breitbart News.

 

“What we’ve learned today is really very sad. It’s disgusting, should be disqualifying for serving in the U.S. Senate,” Loeffler said shortly after the Washington Free Beacon published report of one of the camp’s attendees recounting his experience there.

 

The attendee, Anthony Washington, who was 12 years old at the time, said he received a financial settlement after filing a lawsuit against the camp alleging child abuse, including an instance of counselors pouring urine on him and punishing him by forcing him to sleep outside.

 

Warnock, who is seeking to unseat Loeffler in Georgia’s January 5 Senate runoff election, served as senior pastor of Baltimore’s Douglas Memorial Community Church, which ran Camp Farthest Out, from about 2001 to 2005. The camp was suspected of child abuse in 2002, and according to a 2002 report by the Baltimore Sun, Warnock was arrested for interfering with a state trooper who was questioning the camp’s counselors on the matter.

 

Warnock said in his recent debate with Loeffler that he was “trying to make sure that young people who were being questioned by law enforcement had the benefit of counsel,” although the state trooper had said in a police report that counselors being questioned had consented to the interviews after being told they could leave at any time and had no obligation to answer the questions.

 

Loeffler told Breitbart News she has not received an answer from Warnock about the nature of the child abuse allegations made against the camp but said “her heart goes out to” Washington after Washington went on record about his time there.

 

“First let me say that my heart goes out to the victim that has talked about this publicly, goes out to all victims impacted by child abuse; this is a very serious issue. … This victim said that [Warnock] was one of the leaders of the camp, and this camp was subsequently shut down, and Raphael Warnock left that church after this, and so I think that Georgians deserve those answers, and I’m glad that we’ve finally started to uncover what happened there.”

 

Several entities investigated the camp for child abuse between 2002–2003, according to the Free Beacon, and while no reports of abuse were publicly confirmed, Maryland’s Health Department discovered health and safety violations and found that the camp failed to report child abuse allegations to Social Services. The Health Department shut down the camp in 2003.

 

Loffler lamented that Warnock is not being pressed by media to answer questions about his time overseeing the camp, or about a police-involved domestic dispute he had with his wife, or about some of his more controversial political positions.

 

Loeffler said, “The mainstream media won’t ask these questions of him. He’s refused to answer these questions, questions about domestic abuse. … I’ve asked him if he would denounce Marxism and socialism; he won’t answer those questions. And he won’t answer a simple question about, ‘Will you pack the Supreme Court, will you support that?’”

 

She added, “These are answers that Georgians need to know.”

Georgia Democrats Raphael Warnock, Jon Ossoff Silent as Atlanta Homicides Skyrocket

 

As Atlanta, Georgia’s rate of homicides skyrockets to a two-decade high, Democrat Senate candidates Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff have remained silent after previously suggesting their commitment to cutting funds for law enforcement agencies.

 

The shooting death of a 16-year-old girl in Atlanta over Christmas weekend has brought the city’s homicide rate to its highest count in two decades. Likewise, the recent shooting of a 7-year-old girl in Georgia has drawn national headlines.

 

This year, there have been at least 154 homicides in Atlanta. This is the highest number of homicides since 1998 when there were 154 deaths citywide for the year. In comparison, despite the Chinese coronavirus crisis, the Atlanta Police Department investigated 99 homicides last year — a more than 55 percent increase in less than a year.

 

In response to the death of 7-year-old Kennedy Maxie, who was shot in the head while riding in a car with family members on a shopping trip, Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) said “those responsible for this evil must be held accountable and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

 

Those responsible for this evil MUST be held accountable and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

 

The violence sweeping Atlanta MUST end.

 

And we MUST elect leaders with the courage to support the rule of law. https://t.co/6GmuJyNaK9

 

— Kelly Loeffler (@KLoeffler) December 27, 2020

 

Warnock, Loeffler’s Democrat challenger, has not yet commented on the case. In June, Warnock said “we certainly need to demilitarize the police” and suggested Americans “reimagine policing,” language that has often been deployed by Black Lives Matter activists.

 

“We need to reimagine policing and reimagine the relationships between law enforcement and communities,” Warnock said. “We certainly need to demilitarize the police so we can rebuild the trust between the police and the community.”

 

Sen. David Perdue (R-GA), running to defend his seat against Ossoff, called Atlanta’s rising homicide rate “tragic” and said more funding, not less, should be provided to police departments.

 

Tragic. Our streets have never been more violent. We need to give our brave men & women in blue the resources they need to keep families & businesses safe. @Ossoff wants to put that funding “on the line” like the rest of the radical Left that wants to defund the police. #gapol https://t.co/dixzTcf8OR pic.twitter.com/ktsQiLdwLu

 

— David Perdue (@Perduesenate) December 26, 2020

 

Ossoff, in June, claimed police officers “have a huge problem with police brutality” and “are heavily militarized” and suggested their funding needed to be “on the line.”

 

“You have to have national standards for the use of force, and yeah, you’ve got to be able to hold individual officers and entire departments accountable, and there also has to be funding for those departments on the line,” Ossoff said.

 

“We have pervasive racism and classism in the criminal justice system that victimizes African Americans and people without wealth and connections,” Osssoff continued. “And we have a huge problem with police brutality, and our police forces are heavily militarized.”

 

Georgia’s Senate runoff election is January 5.

10 iconic American companies owned by Chinese investors

 

Chinese conglomerates have been buying stakes in U.S. companies and real estate for several years. But that still didn’t mute the shock in March when word spread that the country’s HNA Group was in talks to buy a controlling stake in the publisher of Forbes magazine.

 

In fact, HNA was one of two Chinese companies reportedly mulling a bid. But the idea of a company from a communist country owning a U.S. news organization caught many people off guard.

 

Chinese companies, though, own part or all of a number of companies that impact American lives on a daily basis, and many people aren’t aware of it. Whether you’re going to the movies, washing your clothes or preparing dinner, there’s a good chance some of the money you spent to do so eventually found its way to China.

 

Here’s a look at some of the bigger business names that are owned by Chinese companies.

 

Chicago Stock Exchange

 

While this deal is still pending, it cleared a notable hurdle in late December, getting the green light from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States. The group said it had “no unresolved national security concerns” over the deal, despite some concerns raised in Congress. China’s Chongqing Casin Enterprise Group (which says it has no ties to the Chinese government) reportedly wants to use the exchange to give more Chinese companies access to the U.S. market. (The deal is still under review by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.) The price for the exchange was not publicly revealed, but Bloomberg has reported it to be under $100 million.

 

AMC

 

The nation’s largest movie theater chain was bought by Dalian Wanda Group in 2012 for $2.6 billion. Chinese businessman Wang Jianlin, who runs Dalian, has a taste for Hollywood, having also bought a major film studio (see below). And last November, AMC added Carmike Cinemas to its holdings for $1.2 billion. Jianlin also tried to buy a controlling stake in Paramount Pictures last year, but parent firm Viacom rejected the offer.

 

Smithfield Foods

 

This $7.1-billion-dollar deal, completed in 2013, remains the largest purchase of an American firm by a Chinese company. Virginia-based Smithfield Foods has been an icon of the American food industry and is best known for its hams (especially its holiday ham). The deal spurred controversy and concern at the time, but Smithfield has thrived, adding jobs and hitting a sales record in 2014.

 

Legendary Entertainment Group

 

After getting a taste of show business with the AMC purchase, Dalian Wanda bought a movie studio to go with its theaters in 2016. The $3.5 billion deal put Dalian in charge of the co-financer of “Jurassic World,” “Warcraft” and “Pacific Rim.” Initially, the company planned to fold Legendary into its conglomerate but decided to operate it independently for a while, until the studio can show a steady stream of profits.

Chinese investments in the United States

 

The American Enterprise Institute and the Heritage Foundation’s China Global Investment Tracker follows large Chinese investments, excluding bonds, around the world.

 

The leading recipient of these kinds of investments is the United States, which received over $180 billion from January 2005 through December 2019. Chinese investment in 2019, though, barely exceeded $3 billion. The 2017 spending level of $23 billion will be difficult to regain because US has passed legislation limiting China’s access.

 

The deals described in the tracker are worth $95 million or more. They are voluntary transactions that let Americans make their own choices. Chinese purchases benefit Americans who hold desirable assets—city property and large corporations but also individual family homes (not in the tracker). China’s investment helps support a small number of American jobs.

 

Against that, the People’s Republic is not a friend. All Chinese enterprises must ultimately answer to the Communist Party. The US certainly should not ban China’s investment but, as Congress has directed, Chinese firms and individuals should not be permitted to buy advanced technology or gain access to Americans’ personal data. Chinese firms that receive stolen intellectual property or otherwise break American law should be barred. Within these guidelines, China’s investment in the US can be positive for both countries.

US Gives China Eminent Domain Over US Property Beyond High Treason

 

A. True Ott, PhD, ND

 

2-28-9

 

Let's connect some dots today, boys and girls to learn about the HIGHEST POSSIBLE TREASON that has happened in this country.

 

THIS IS AS REAL AND AS UGLY AS IT CAN GET.

 

Dot #1 China begins its covert war on the FREE American republic in the 1950's by taking over much of the PHARMACEUTICAL DRUG manufacturing for American and British Big Pharma. This is an outgrowth of the Rothschild's OPIUM RING PROCESSING by the British West Indies company during the 1800's, and is brokered by the "City of London" and Washington D.C.

 

Dot #2 Arch-illuminist and satanist Henry Kissinger "normalizes" trade relations with China during the Nixon years.

 

Dot #3 Eventual LDS (Mormon) Church President Gordon B. Hinckley, via the church-owned Polynesian Cultural Center in Hawaii, establishes a "hard currency" pipeline with Bejing, exchanging bank "trade credits" for CIA/BRITISH MI6 DRUG SERVICES RENDERED into hard GOLD AND SILVER while hiding behind the cloak of "World Religion". This is facilitated via the LDS-Church built and controlled "Shenzhen Special Economic Zone" adjacent to Hong Kong. When Hinckley is made LDS President, his first "official" visit as "World Prophet" is to China, where the Chinese Communist leaders give him a hero's welcome and a confetti parade. (See attached paper — "Pensees of a Puzzled Pilgrim" pp 5-6 and Desert News, June 1, 1996 article: "President Hinckley Visits China").

 

Dot #4 Arkansas natives Bill Clinton and Sam Walton massively increase contracts with China's factories over 2,000%. This results in a tremendous imbalance of trade with China. Thanks to the Mormon "Special Economic Zone" – China's communist leaders begin amassing incredible "real" wealth in gold and silver.

 

Dot #5 China purchases TRILLIONS of dollars worth of U.S. Treasury Bills and Bonds, paying for it with gold and silver provided by the Shenzhen Economic Zone exchanges. Much of the U.S. "national debt" is purchased from the private "Federal Reserve" banks in this manner.

 

Dot #6 Dr. Jeff Taubenberger of the U.S. Institute of Pathology in Ft. Dedrick MD, (The world headquarters for biologic weapons development) successfully maps the genome of the 1918 killer "flu" virus responsible for the 1918 "pandemic" that killed millions.

The worst killer virus ever to plague mankind is now ready to be used as a covert "weapon" disguised as a natural "influenza" mutations.

 

Dot #6 July, 2005: The Illuminati-conrolled United Nations announces that the world is long over-due for an "influenza pandemic". The H5N1 "Avian Flu" is wrongfully demonized as a COVER.

Chinese Buying Land In US Communities All Over America

 

Has the United States ever experienced a time when a foreign nation has attempted to buy up so much of our land all at once? As you will read about in this article, the Chinese are on a real estate buying spree all over America. In fact, in some cases large chunks of land are actually being given to them. Yes, you read that correctly. China is on the way to becoming the dominant land owner in the entire country, and that is starting to alarm a lot of people. Do we really want a foreign superpower to physically own so much of our territory?

 

There are some that are playing down this threat by making a distinction between the Chinese government and Chinese corporations, but things work differently over in China than they do here. In China, the government is involved in everything. In fact, 43 percent of all corporate profits in China are produced by companies that the Chinese government controls. And all of the rest of the companies are very careful to follow the lead and direction of the Chinese government.

 

That is why what is going on in places such as Thomasville, Alabama is so alarming. Small communities such as Thomasville are so starved for jobs that they are willing to give land away for free to Chinese companies in order to entice them to build factories…

How much of the United States does China really own?

 

China has slowly been buying big in America, dominating the global supply chain in an array of industries

 

The coronavirus pandemic may have shed light on China's influence in America over the supply chain, including life-saving medicines, technology and equipment.

 

But some analysts believe the ongoing crisis lays bare the inroads China has made on U.S. soil.

 

The American Security Institute recently released a report and launched a campaign, featuring a billboard in Times Square, to draw further attention to the extensive array of sectors the Chinese government and its partners have invested into. But, exactly how much does the nation own?

 

Medicine:

 

China produces 97 percent of U.S. antibiotics and about 80 percent of active pharmaceutical ingredients used in American drugs, giving the Chinese Communist Party absolute control of potentially life-saving medicine. For example, Chinese pharmaceutical companies supply 70 percent of the world's acetaminophen, commonly used in Tylenol.

 

Food:

 

In 2017, the United States imported $4.6 billion in agricultural goods from China, which is also responsible for much of the global supply of soy and pea proteins that are found in nutritional supplements and synthetic meats. A Chinese firm has also purchased Smithfield, the world's largest pork processor and hog producer.

 

(Smithfield said in a later statement pertaining to their ownership structure that they are "a U.S. company that provides more than 40,000 American jobs and partners with thousands of American farmers. The company was founded in Smithfield, Virginia, in 1936 and was acquired by Hong Kong-based WH Group in 2013. WH Group is a publicly-traded company with shareholders around the world. Anyone anywhere can purchase shares of WH Group on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. WH Group’s shareholders include many large U.S.-based financial institutions."

 

Education:

 

The Chinese government's theft of intellectual property has been an open secret for decades. More recently, U.S. authorities have discovered China is funding American university researchers, who don't always disclose those contributions.

 

US PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY AIMS TO WREST SOME DRUG PRODUCTION BACK FROM CHINA

 

Technology:

 

The manufacturing of smartphones and other household items is heavily reliant on China, which controls most of the rare earth minerals that make those items work. Additionally, China is seeking to build 5G networks in the United States and other Western countries, which could potentially feed personal information and sensitive data to the Chinese Communist Party.

 

Media:

 

Chinese firms have bought AMC Entertainment, Legendary Entertainment, and other media companies. Control of 8,000-plus of American theater screens and other media platforms allows China to project "soft power" and block unflattering depictions of the Chinese government from being presented, both in terms of creative production and mass distribution.

 

Citing the nonpartisan economic think-tank Paulson Institute, the American Security Institute report underscores that "Chinese firms and investors own a controlling majority in nearly 2,400 U.S. companies."

 

These include: AMC Entertainment (entertainment), Cirrus Wind Energy (energy), Complete Genomics (health care), First International Oil (energy), G.E. Appliances (technology), IBM—P.C. division (technology), Legendary Entertainment Group (entertainment), Motorola Mobility (technology), Nexteer Automotive (automotive), Riot Games (entertainment), Smithfield Foods (food), Teledyne Continental Motors and Mattituck Services (aerospace), Terex Corp. (machinery), Triple H Coal (mining), Zonare Medical Systems (health care).

 

"Under China's Communist Party dictatorship, private companies are forced to bend to the government's will," the report states.
