Joe Biden's 2020 Ukrainian nightmare: A closed probe is revived

Two years after leaving office, Joe Biden couldn’t resist the temptation last year to brag to an audience of foreign policy specialists about the time as vice president that he strong-armed Ukraine into firing its top prosecutor.

In his own words, with video cameras rolling, Biden described how he threatened Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in March 2016 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.

    A group of parasitical humanoids doing the bidding of another group of parasitical humanoids to usurp the fruits of our labor, our inventiveness our creativity our morality and our connection to it all...that is what scared Nimrod in babylon, so much so that he and his parasitical buddies vowed to confound everything we know and everything we are,.. otherwise, they would become irrelevant.

    The more I learn about these people, the more I am amazed at what they have gotten away with!

    What Biden did was coercion that used the power and might of the American Government for his own benefit.

    Biden is a dead horse.

    He is playing the same game now as four years ago, keeping the suspense up if he runs or not.

    He has absolutely no chance.

    The children of Trump has been under investigation non stop.

    Little shitty Schiff's main "smoking gun" is Donald Jr's "connection" to Russian officials to dig up dirt on Clinton (as if the left has never done opposition research).

    Ivanka is also in the bullseye.

    The hysterical left found nothing against dad so they are trying to take their vendetta out on the children.

    Never underestimate the level of evil on the left.

    I don't suppose any official of the DOJ is looking into his and his soons dealings with the Ukrainian Government. If Don Jr or Eric or Ivanka had done something like this as a cover for Dear old Dad, they would be under Leavenworth Federal now. Dad would be in Ft. Leavenworth Military Prison since he is nominally the head of the military (and the Military prison is about 5 time worse the Leavenworth Federal Prison.

    "Was it appropriate for your, [biden's], son and his firm to cash in on Ukraine while you served as point man for Ukraine policy?"
