The Republican case against Biden takes a body blow … from Fox News

“Okay, so that is not true,” Kilmeade continued. “He didn’t get fired because of Joe Biden.” Poroshenko confirmed that he did not, saying that Shokin was fired “for his own statement.”

So you are attributing Kilmeade's statement to Poroshenko? Are you stupid, dishonest, or both?

You think Archer as lying?

Devon Archer testified he was told that Shokin was under Burisma’s control.

 

[g5000]

Sworn testimony that the Bidens' paymasters at Burisma told them to have Shokin fired.

What testimony would that be?

 

[Flash]

The hoax about Joe Biden and the firing of the Ukrainian prosecutor Shokin was debunked several years ago. But the MAGA media needs something to distract from Dear Leader's legal troubles, and so they have revived the hoax, which has led the usual pandering monkeys in Congress to make it the basis for an impeachment inquiry despite admitting they have NO evidence against the president of any kind.

In pursuit of giving new life to this hoax, Fox News recently interviewed the president of Ukraine who fired Shokin, Petro Poroshenko, hoping to get him to back up Shokin's bullshit story that Poroshenko fired Shokin to protect Biden's son and Burisma.

Unfortunately, it did not go well for Fox.

Kilmeade began by speaking with the former Ukrainian president — defeated by Zelensky in the country’s 2019 election — about the war in Russia. He then transitioned to the interview with Shokin, who’d referred to Poroshenko as his friend.

He played a clip from the Shokin interview in which the former prosecutor claimed that “Poroshenko fired me at the insistence of the then-vice-president Biden because I was investigating Burisma. … There were no complaints whatsoever, no problems with how I was performing at my job. But because pressure was repeatedly put on President Poroshenko, that is what ended up in him firing me.”

This is patently untrue, as has been established repeatedly. But Kilmeade presented it to Poroshenko as possible, asking if that is, in fact, why Shokin was fired.

“First of all, this is the completely crazy person,” Poroshenko began. “This is something wrong with him.”

“Second,” the nonnative English speaker continued, “there is no one single word of truth. And third, I hate the idea to make any comments and to make any intervention in the American election.” He asked that Kilmeade “not use such person like Shokin to undermine the trust between bipartisan support and Ukraine.”

“He’s not your friend?” Kilmeade asked.

“I don’t see him — maybe four years or something,” Poroshenko replied. “At all. And I hate the idea to have him because he play very dirty game, unfortunately.”

“Okay, so that is not true,” Kilmeade continued. “He didn’t get fired because of Joe Biden.” Poroshenko confirmed that he did not, saying that Shokin was fired “for his own statement.”

Nevertheless, the tard herd will continue to parrot the hoax. You can take that to the bank.

You watch Fox News? How idiotic of you. They are CNN Light.

 

[g5000]

So you are attributing Kilmeade's statement to Poroshenko? Are you stupid, dishonest, or both?

Poroshenko stated Shokin was not fired to protect Biden's son or Burisma. Kilmeade merely restated that fact.

Are you stupid, dishonest, or both?

 

[g5000]

You watch Fox News? How idiotic of you. They are CNN Light.

I don't watch Fox News. I don't even have cable.

Oh! This is not about Obama? It says blow.

Russia too is always pro-Trump.
They know that a nuclear war is much more likely with Biden.

Americans are close to unanimous on ignoring that fact!

 

[g5000]

I guess WAPO monitors Fox pretty close. What the rag media forgets is that Fox is a fair and balanced information source, unlike WAPO, that allows opinions on both sides. Let it go lefties before you start salivating

Fox is fair and balanced. That's why they just had to pay $787 million for manufacturing bullshit.

Every day, Trumptards remind me just how similar they are to the pantywaisted liberal appeasers of the Cold War era.

"Ray-gun is going to start WWIII!"

 

[bodecea]

Fox "News" is the new CNN. Take what they preach with a grain of salt.

Keep crying.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Just following the facts. Sworn testimony that the Bidens' paymasters at Burisma told them to have Shokin fired. Five days later Biden extorts the Ukrainians with US dollars to get Shokin fired. You can write it off as a coincidence. Most of us don't. We'll let the jury and the American people decide.

Shokin was fired two years earlier.

 

[g5000]

You think Archer as lying?

You didn't read his testimony, did you.

Your propagandists have most likely lied to you about it.

Archer destroyed the hoax about Biden and Burisma.

 

[g5000]

You think Archer as lying?

It is important to note that it was Trump's FBI who created Form 1023, and that they found the claims not to be credible. That has not stopped the partisan hacks from reviving this horseshit to distract from Trump's current legal problems.



Archer confirms it was a hoax during his testimony:

Q. I want to ask you now about an FBI Form 1023 --

A. Uh-huh.

Q. -- that Chairman Comer and Senator Grassley recently made public, on July 20th.

A. Right.

Q. Do you -- have you seen that form?

A. Yeah.

Q. Is it your understanding that in this form an FBI confidential human source is reporting years after the fact statements supposedly made by executives at Burisma, including Mykola Zlochevsky?

A. Yes.

Q. That's what it represents.

A. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

Q. In this form, the FBI confidential human source appears to relate a statement attributed to Mykola Zlochevsky that says, "It costs five to pay one Biden and five to another," the mark "million" in parentheses. Do you remember reading that?

A. I do. I do.

Q. Were you ever made aware of Mr. Zlochevsky paying $5 million to two different Bidens?

A. No, I'm not. I would assume he's probably talking about me and Hunter, but I don't know. But I don't know anything about those five.

Q. Based on your knowledge, including your work for Burisma's board, your conversations with Hunter Biden, Mykola Zlochevsky, and others at Burisma, does this allegation strike you as credible, meaning the allegation that there were two $5 million payments to two Bidens?

A. I think it's -- the agent explains it pretty well on the bottom. And it's similar to, you know, Hunter Biden taking credit for his dad's visit. It's like sending a signal.
So he's bragging to this guy that they paid, you know, where he probably paid $5 million or whatever, $6 million altogether, you know, so that, you know, just to show he's -- well, there's a lot of -- and he explains it. I forget. There's a word in the document.

Mr. Schwartz. You're guessing. Are you aware of a $5 million payment --

Mr. Archer. No.

Mr. Schwartz. -- to one Biden and a $5 million payment to another?

Mr. Archer. No.

Mr. Schwartz. You ever hear anything about that?

Mr. Archer. In that document.

Q. Other than that document.

A. The $5 million and the $5 million, I first saw that in the document.

Q. And so I think the point you're referring to is that in this document the confidential human source says he cannot opine to the veracity of the allegations and notes that it's not unusual for Ukrainian business executives to brag or show off.

A. Correct.

Q. Is that consistent with your understanding?

A. It's consistent of what I was just explaining in both directions.

Q. If someone were to conclude from this that this is evidence, this Form 102314 is evidence that Joe Biden was bribed by Mykola Zlochevsky, would you disagree with that conclusion?

A. Yeah, I would.


Boom.

 

[Donald H]

Every day, Trumptards remind me just how similar they are to the pantywaisted liberal appeasers of the Cold War era.

"Ray-gun is going to start WWIII!"

You've at least made a point on appeasement and how it's destructive of America's wars of aggression.
Stick to the money cause. This one could erupt into a Vietnam style protest.

 

[CowboyTed]

Yes, dumbass, he got the prosecutor fired. But not to protect his son or Burisma.

Do try to catch up.

How they catch up... How can you catch up and still blame Democrats...

Boom.

US foreign policy isn't compromisable. There's little chance of getting to Biden that way unless the R's have a new awakening by coming to understand that the war against Russia isn't winnable.
