Sen. Ron Johnson Set to Issue First Subpoena in Biden-Burisma Probe to Andrii Telizhenko

Bad news for the Bidens – The Senate is looking into Burisma.

Andrii Telizhenko worked as a political officer in the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington DC in 2015-2016.

Andrii Telizhenko spoke to The Gateway Pundit about the DNC-Russia collusion scandal back in December 2018.

The Gateway Pundit was the first publication to interview Telizhenko on his meetings with DNC operative Alexandra Chalupa in the Obama White House back in 2016.

In early 2016 Telizhenko was approached by DNC operative Alexandra Chalupa. She is still working at the DNC. She wanted dirt on Trump and his campaign manager Paul Manafort.

The Ukrainian embassy in Washington DC worked VERY CLOSELY with DNC operative and Hillary supporter Alexandra Chalupa.

Chalupa told Andrii she wanted Russian “dirt” on the Trump campaign.

Mueller had no intention in hearing Andrii’s story. It didn’t fit his narrative so dirty Robert Mueller and his team of Democrat lawyers skipped Andrii in their investigation.

It was a total scam.

Mueller and his angry Democrat lawyers were not interested in the truth.

They only wanted to destroy Trump.

Andrii spoke to us about his experiences with DNC operatives in the White House.

He believes he is safe as long as he speaks out.

The Gateway Pundit spoke with former Ukrainian Embassy official Andrii Telizhenko on the DNC Russia-Gate Scandal.

Andrii Teslizhenko worked in Washington DC at the Ukraine Embassy in 2016. Andrii is a political consultant. Andrii was approached by a DNC operative during the 2016 election (March-April 2016).

Senator Ron Johnson will call in Andrii to testify in front of the Senate Homeland Security Committee.

The Daily Caller reported:

Sen. Ron Johnson, the chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, is preparing to issue the panel’s first subpoena as part of an investigation into Burisma Holdings, the Ukrainian energy company linked to Hunter Biden, he said in a letter on Sunday.

Johnson, a Wisconsin Republican, told Democratic Michigan Sen. Gary Peters of his plans to subpoena Andrii Telizhenko, a former Ukrainian embassy official and former consultant for Blue Star Strategies, a firm that Burisma hired to fight against corruption allegations.

Telizhenko, who was a consultant for Blue Star from July 2016 to June 2017, has provided some documents to the committee, according to Johnson. But he says that he cannot turn over others without a subpoena because they are protected by a non-disclosure agreement.

“He cannot provide this responsible information unless he is compelled to do so by subpoena,” Johnson wrote to Peters in his letter, which was first reported by CBS News.

Republicans have been investigating whether Hunter Biden leveraged his father’s position as vice president to help Burisma, which has long been dogged by allegations of corruption.

US DoD upgrades WATCHCON 2, a probable crisis, to WATCHCON 1, an imminent crisis – due to NCOV!

Officials have expected global cases would spread. On Tuesday, the National Center for Medical Intelligence (NCMI) raised the Risk of Pandemic warning. It went from WATCHCON 2, a probable crisis, to WATCHCON 1, an imminent crisis, due to sustained human-to-human transmission outside of China, according to a report summary obtained by Newsweek.

COVID-19 has touched every inhabitable continent, infecting more than 82,000 people worldwide since it was first identified last December, including potentially 65 people in the United States. Of the cases in the U.S., the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed two were of unknown origin, indicating the possibility of community spread. Then on Saturday, a woman in Washington state became the first death in America.

As COVID-19 continues to spread worldwide, the risk to DoD members deployed throughout the world increases, and one service member has already tested positive. United States Forces Korea (USFK) confirmed Tuesday that a 23-year-old soldier stationed at Camp Carroll, located in Waegwan, South Korea, was the first service member known to have the virus and his wife tested positive on Saturday.

“The DoD is concerned not only the impact COVID-19 has on mission readiness, but the risk to inadvertently spread the virus to the U.S. by returning members who may have been exposed,” a senior Pentagon official told Newsweek.

Visa Slashes Q2 Revenue Outlook By 2.5-3.5% On Lower Asia Travel; Microchip Pulls Guidance

With stocks desperate to put the coronavirus crisis behind them, and pretend as if the earnings impact will be non-existant, moments ago the world's largest payments processor, Visa, joined the guide-down crew including its competitor Mastercard which cut guidance just last week, when it announced that it now sees 2Q net revenue growth to be about 2.5% to 3.5% percentage points lower than the outlook shared just one month ago, on January 30.

In an announcement after the close, Visa said that "cross-border growth rates have deteriorated week by week since the coronavirus outbreak in China, and trends through February 28, 2020 do not yet fully reflect the impact of the coronavirus spreading outside of Asia." As a result, Visa anticipates "that this deteriorating trend has not bottomed out yet." Full statement below:

"Visa has been actively monitoring the coronavirus, or COVID-19, situation and its impact globally. Our priority has been the safety of our employees, including comprehensive plans to support employee wellness, as well as support for our clients and the communities affected.

Through February 28, 2020, the most significant impact has been on travel to and from Asia. This has resulted in a sharp slowdown of our cross-border business, in particular travel related spending in both card present and card not present. Cross-border eCommerce unrelated to travel has thus far not been significantly impacted, except in some Asian markets. In markets where Visa processes the majority of our transactions, domestic spending growth, both credit and debit, remains largely stable with the exception of some impact in Hong Kong and Singapore.

Cross-border growth rates have deteriorated week by week since the coronavirus outbreak in China, and trends through February 28, 2020 do not yet fully reflect the impact of the coronavirus spreading outside of Asia. As such, we anticipate that this deteriorating trend has not bottomed out yet. Because the situation remains fluid, it is not possible to accurately forecast the growth trend for the rest of our second fiscal quarter or the remainder of fiscal 2020.

Based on trends through the end of February, and assuming some continuing deterioration in March, Visa expects second fiscal quarter net revenue growth to be approximately 2.5-3.5 percentage points lower than the outlook we shared on our January 30, 2020 earnings call.

Given the uncertainty surrounding the magnitude, duration and geographic reach of the coronavirus impact, we will update our views for future quarters and the fiscal full year 2020 on our second quarter earnings call in April."

Following the news, Visa shares slumped and were trading down about 2% after the close.
