Well hell, you are stupid but no one believes you anyway!
So, stay on task/
WAS Shokin:
a) A good guy fighting for the best interests of Ukraine and its allies?
b) A corrupt prosecutor that wasn't doing his job to fight corruption in Ukraine, thus helping Putin?
c) I'm sure you have some OTHER, so explain.
I DARE you to answer and not deflect.
Do you know how stupid you people sound believing this BS? You really expect us to believe that Joe had Shokin fired because he wasn't doing enough to investigate the company his son was working for?
BTW, I have a bridge for sale dirt cheap if you're in the market for one.
That was one of the reasons, but far from the foremost. We have State Dept officials testifying as to why they recommended Shokin be fired.
Nothing but vague unsubstantiated accusations that Shokin was corrupt. We know for a fact that Lutsenko is corrupt.
Biden wanted the good PG out and would not release the money until the day after the corrupt PG was installed. The timeline proves it.

May 12, 2016: Biden approved "solid" guy, Yuriy Lutsenko, is scandalously appointed Prosecutor General of Ukraine, ostensibly to fight corruption, despite the fact that Lutsenko had served prison time for embezzlement and abuse of office while he was the Interior Minister and had no legal credentials. No legal experience. Not even a law degree. Apparently his only qualification was that Joe Biden approved of him.
