“Mr. Shokin attempted to continue the investigations but on or around June or July of 2015, the U.S. Ambassador Geoffrey R. Pyatt told him that the investigation has to be handled with white gloves, which according to Mr. Shokin, that implied do nothing,” the notes from the interview stated. The notes also claimed Shokin was told Biden had held up U.S. aid to Ukraine over the investigation.
Hundreds of pages of never-released memos and documents — many from inside the American team helping Burisma to stave off its legal troubles — conflict with Biden’s narrative.
Burisma’s American legal representatives met with Ukrainian officials just days after Biden forced the firing of the country’s chief prosecutor and offered “an apology for dissemination of false information by U.S. representatives and public figures” about the Ukrainian prosecutors, according to the Ukrainian government’s official memo of the meeting. The effort to secure that meeting began the same day the prosecutor's firing was announced.
The memo also quoted the Americans as saying they knew Shokin pursued an aggressive corruption investigation against Burisma’s owner, only to be thwarted by British allies: “These individuals noted that they had been aware that the Prosecutor General’s Office of Ukraine had implemented all required steps for prosecution … and that he was released by the British court due to the underperformance of the British law enforcement agencies.”
“Unfortunately, from the first meeting with the U.S. ambassador in Kiev, [Yovanovitch] gave me a list of people whom we should not prosecute,” Lutsenko, who took his post in 2016, told Hill.TV last week.

I didnt say there was a video, just alot of witnesses.
But, do you agree, someone would have to investigate the murders, to determine the facts so Congress could make a informed decision one way or the other?

The approach of Shokin’s office to the Burisma investigations fell into a well-practiced pattern of corruption, the anonymous prosecutor says. By the time of Biden’s intervention, there were no active investigations to speak of. l ink
Burisma's owner was under investigation, Hunter Biden was given a job, then Zlochevsky was suddenly in the clear, a new prosecutor was assigned and Zlochevsky was never investigated again.
So you are telling me Joe Biden was pissed Zlochevsky, the guy who gave Joe's son a good job, was not being investigated and was working to investigate Zlochevsky .. who just gave his son a job?

He tried to trade military funding
for a foreign nation to start a legitimately fake investigation into the Biden’s.
What evidence does trump have against the Biden’s that merits him doing that?
Biden himself, on tape, bragging about getting the prosecutor fired that was investigating his son?
He actually has zero evidence.
Except the video of Biden himself bragging about it.
Yeah, but nearly as much evidence as they have on Trump, right?
A crazy rich kid who’s daddy’s name recognition got him a job he didn’t deserve..
Yep, and Hunter even admitted it. He said himself he probably wouldn't have gotten on the Board if his last name hadn't been Biden.
Just like every one of trumps kids..
Thos crazy kids that have decades of experience and success in international business? Those kids?
The dems know they have to play it butyl the book if they are gonna try and impeach someone.
Really? Then maybe they better start (playing by the book/rules)...
Lol is right.

I'm all for dialectic discussion.
If in fact that Biden did do something wrong, then yes investigate. However Trump nor his personal lawyer should be involved. Because it's a conflict of interest. Maybe an impartial country could do the investigating.
