JOE BIDEN
HUNTER BIDEN
>>President Obama named Biden the administration’s point man on Ukraine in February 2014
>> In his own words, with video cameras rolling, Biden described how he threatened Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in March 2016, he said that the Obama administration would pull $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees, sending the former Soviet republic toward insolvency, if it didn’t immediately fire Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin.
>>“I said, ‘You’re not getting the billion.’ I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. - biden
>>“Well, son of a bitch, he got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time,”
>>The prosecutor who got fired was leading a wide-ranging corruption probe into the natural gas firm Burisma Holdings that
employed Biden’s younger son, Hunter, as a board member.
>>U.S. banking records show Hunter Biden’s American-based firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners LLC, received regular transfers into
one of its accounts — usually more than $166,000 a month — from Burisma from spring 2014 through fall 2015, during a period when
Vice President Biden was the main U.S. official dealing with Ukraine and its tense relations with Russia.
>> prosecutors identified Hunter Biden, business partner Devon Archer and their firm, Rosemont Seneca, as potential recipients of money.
>>While the probe was underway, then-Vice President Biden made more than a dozen trips to Ukraine
>>Biden said he gave them a six-hour deadline to fire him (then prosecutor) or he would pull $1 billion in U.S loan guarantees.
>>Biden would have known because
Hunter Biden's appointment to the board was widely reported in American media ($$3 million in 14 month period);
The U.S. Embassy in Kiev that coordinated Biden's work in the country repeatedly and publicly discussed the general prosecutor's case against Burisma;
Great Britain took very public action against Burisma while Joe Biden was working with that government on Ukraine issues;
Biden's office was quoted, on the record, acknowledging Hunter Biden's role in Burisma in a New York Times article about the general prosecutor's Burisma case that appeared four months before Biden forced the firing of Shokin. The vice president's office suggested in that article that Hunter Biden was a lawyer free to pursue his own private business deals.
>>Vice President Biden met with Archer in April 2014 right as Archer was named to the board at Burisma; a month later Hunter was placed on the board to oversee Bursimas legal team (source:Schweizer’s book)
>> Burisma cases was transferred to a different Ukrainian agency, closely aligned with the U.S. Embassy in Kiev, known as the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) They then closed the case
>>“members of the Board obtained funds as well as another U.S.-based legal entity, Rosemont Seneca Partners LLC, for consulting services.” -Lutsenko
>>Lutsenko sais new information would be of interest to AG Willian Barr
>>Burisma investigation was reopened in 2018, after Joe Biden made his remarks
>>“We don’t see any result from this case one year after the reopening because of some [external influence],”
>>Between April 2014 and October 2015, more than $3 million was paid out of Burisma accounts to an account linked to Hunter Biden’s and Archer’s Rosemont Seneca firm, according to the financial records placed in a federal court file in Manhattan in an unrelated case against Archer.
>>The bank records show that, on most months when Burisma money flowed, two wire transfers of $83,333.33 each
were sent to the Rosemont Seneca–connected account on the same day. The same Rosemont Seneca–linked account
typically then would pay Hunter Biden one or more payments ranging from $5,000 to $25,000 each.
>>When asked then-White House press secretary Jay Carney said the White House saw no problem with the younger Biden’s business dealings in Ukraine.
>>Hunter Biden had “no background in Ukraine” and “no background in energy policy.” -Schweizer
