    Biden did not get the old one fired for looking into it. He got the old one fired - THREE ****ING YEARS AGO - for not looking into corruption.

    After Biden threaten Ukraine that unless they fired the active prosecutor on the case and replace him with someone willing to look elsewhere, they wouldn't get the money!

    That's not what I asked.

    And yes, since the money comes from Congress, which is run by Democrats.

    Yea, we confirmed in all of this that Joe Biden threatened to withhold aid until the prosecutor in the case against his son was removed from office.

    We know all of this to be fact already.

    At one point, the U.S. threatened to withhold a $1 billion loan guarantee unless Shokin was removed from office. Biden delivered the message directly to Ukrainian officials. “If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money,” he told them, according to an account of the conversation he gave at a 2018 conference. Shokin was ousted in March 2016, and the loan guarantee came through.

    Quid Pro Quo and Trump has every right to investigate how and why Hunter Biden was involved and why Joe would protect his son by withholding aid to an ally in exchange for firing a prosecutor in charge of looking into his sons corruption.

    Biden is dirty.

    We also have Biden on video bragging about withholding the aid.

    I asked you what leverage Biden, or his allies, had over the new prosecutor in 2019. You asked about military aid from the Obama administration in response.

    Who appropriates military aid to Ukraine in 2019?

    Answer: Democrats.

    It sounds like it isn't just Biden, he was there at his President's bidding. For Trump to ask for an investigation into what sounds like a pocket of corruption seems pretty reasonable. As for quid pro quo, what international deal or agreement doesn't come with that?

    Our resident lawyer seems to believe that if someone isn't prosecute immediatly for fraud, it just goes away?
    What is the statute of limitation on fraud, oh great lawyer?

    I read Taylor's released "transcripted testimony."

    Somebody had to be abused. Ukraine was not abused. Trump has long been accused of crimes. Commencing prior to any of this taking place. We seem willing to ignore the massive lying done to us all from the Democrats. They promised Mueller would show so much crime that Trump would have been removed from office by this date. They failed to tell us the truth.

    Taylor for instance gave you his opinion. You have one as I have another. Taylor is not God.

    Better, now let's review what you said previously:

    I went ahead and bolded the portion of your timeline that was completely and totally wrong.

    Also, Trump is pretty sure the Russian Hoax started in Ukraine and it seems the Biden corruption scheme was uncovered almost accidentally. This is why Barr and Durham are looking closely into this country as well as Italy and Great Britain.

    The Russian Hoax is a criminal investigation now.

    Criminal. This is bad news for those who attempted the coup. It's also very bad for Joe Biden and his son.

    The real question might be: Did Joe Biden have a hand in the fake Russian Hoax and what was his role?

    That would be a bombshell. All we have right now is extortion that Biden committed, which is a crime. More might be on the horizon.

    I publicly admit I will not read the transcript.
    How many Clintonettes gave a crap about the email scandal?

    and? Go read your own links. Thanks for admitting Joe Biden extorted Ukraine for personal gain.

    Oh, by the way, there might be tax evasion wrapped up into this as well. :)

    I think you mean extortion, not fraud.

    And sure, if he committed the crime of extortion, then go ahead and indict him - especially if you think you have ****ing video taped confession that is nearly two years old. The reason you haven't seen an indictment is because the video you cite is not a confession of a crime.

    The Constitution was abused...what do you think "abuse of power" is based upon? And, yes, so was Ukraine abused, by the threat that the money was being withheld until they launched investigations into Biden and the Trump administration's own conclusion that the Russians interfered in the 2016 election.

    Not Trump who unilaterally held up the money until Ukraine was willing to announce a new investigation?

    You have to remember. FullofSchiff, the Democrats, the leftness. They are still investigating to find a crime. Not having a crime committed yet.

    Looks like the new prosecutor miscalculated then considering that Trump reacted to that finding by holding up 400 million in military aid.

    Whatever, Bro'.:bored:

    This back and forth has grown boring (and I got things to do and people to see).

    Enjoy your day.

    And, as always, I hope you find the time you spend at PF to be enriching.

    All Good in Da Hood...:salute:

    lol

    Yea. The old one is Shokin who was looking into Burisma and the Hunter Biden payments and corruption. Joe Biden openly admits to withholding aid until Shokin is removed from office.

    What is it you don't get? All the links you provided state the same thing I am writing here. I even quoted them. Joe Biden even agrees with me.

    Joe Biden committed extortion.
