Why Won't Democrats Investigate Joe Biden's Quid Pro Quo with Ukraine?

[mikegriffith1]

Joe Biden publicly, on video, stated that in 2016 he threatened Ukraine with the loss of $1 billion in loan guarantees if Ukraine didn't fire its chief prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who was in charge of the investigation into the Ukrainian company Burisma. After the investigation into Burisma began, Burisma hired the totally unqualified Hunter Biden for the whopping salary of $50K per month. Hunter Biden, by his own admission, had no qualifications for the job. In response to Joe Biden's threat to withhold $1 billion in loan guarantees, the Ukrainian government fired Shokin, and the next prosecutor obligingly and quickly exonerated Burisma.

Democrats and some phony conservatives argue that technically Shokin was not investigating Burisma at the time because the investigation was supposedly "dormant." First off, Shokin himself has debunked that claim--he says the investigation was not dormant. But, even if it had been, a "dormant" investigation is still an investigation, not a closed one. As Marc Thiessen has pointed out,

First, the phrase "dormant" means, by definition, that an investigation into Burisma existed and was not closed. Second, we don't know for certain that the Burisma investigation was, in fact, "dormant." Shokin has sworn in an affidavit it was not. (Why is the media bending over backward to absolve the Bidens of wrongdoing? | Marc Thiessen)​

Let's recap: Shokin opens an investigation into Burisma. Burisma hires Hunter Biden. Joe Biden comes to Ukraine and threatens to withhold $1 billion in loan guarantees if Shokin is not fired. Poroshenko caves into Biden's threat and fired Shokin. The next prosecutor quickly exonerates Burisma, which employs Hunter Biden. Now, what do you call that? Hey? What is that? Quid Pro Quo, that's what it is.

So why won't Democrats investigate this shady episode? And why are they upset because Trump wants Ukraine to look into this shady series of events? Why did Biden lie about not discussing his son's Burisma dealings with him? Why have so many documents and other evidence emerged that plainly contradict Biden's story?

It would take away from their Ukraine scam on Trump.

 

[HaShev]

Anderson Cooper on his show & at the debate numerous times said there was no Evidence of Bidens Quid Pro Quo.
Even though he knows the open admission by Biden on That Taped Broadcast bragging about it to give an air of toughness to his image.

Seems they figure the Public is so stupid that if they say there is no evidence then those who never see the admission by Biden will actually believe the news (propagandist) host.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Because he didn’t seek personal benefit. He was working in the nation’s interest and was fully supported by the State Department in his open and transparent actions.


Moron.

 

[Billy_Kinetta]

Why Won't Democrats Investigate Joe Biden's Quid Pro Quo with Ukraine?

Because they are trying to destroy their opponents and take over the United States. They will not allow dirt to be thrown on their operatives in this most sensitive time.

Soon, they will have no choice.

NO-it was worse than Trump's transcript, for sure.

No. It wasn’t. He was doing something to benefit America. Out in the open and at the behest of our State Department. Change the channel.

Trump used the power of his office for personal gain. He will be impeached for it. You may as well accept that fact.

 

[eagle1462010]

Biden was cashing in on his political position.

Nothing more and nothing less..............monetary gain for political gain...........The Gas company there didn't need his kid..............they needed the influence of Daddy.................nothing more.

This is how the Millionaire's club in Washington D.C. works .........nothing new here.....only the shocked looks as one of their's gets called out.........

Which is why the establishment hates Trump........both sides.

Trump runs the Justice Department

Why has he done nothing in the last three years?

 

[candycorn]

Because there was none.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Biden’s son appears to have taken advantage of his father’s notoriety and position to secure a gig with a gas company in Ukraine.

Biden himself did nothing to assist him in securing that gig nor did he do anything to help said company in any way. In fact, his helping to oust the prosecutor in question was something that was bad for Burisma.

You fuckers know this already. What you are doing here is gaslighting. You fuckers gaslight with regularity.

 

[gipper]

Did the DNC tell you that?

and you believed it. LOL

I think we know why the Ds won’t investigate one of their own.

 

[JimBowie1958]

Democrats will NEVER cooperate with an investigation that might lead to any of their key members going to jail.

Sure sure..sure sure..........They get off Airforce 2 play golf with there big dogs and then BAM.......50k a month for the coke head.

 

[wamose]

The Republican party, mostly due to Trump's influence, has gotten rid of a lot of the establishment neocons that were polluting the party and our country. Now it's the Democrats chance to turn from their establishment elitist ways and become a force for good. Right now there's no good reason for any working person to vote for any Democrat. They're anti worker, anti middle class and anti freedom.

 

[rightwinger]

How bout we do this?

Joe Biden will testify under oath right after Trump does the same?

[JGalt]

That's the same reason Hillary's crimes weren't pursued by a justice system being run by Obama cronies. They couldn't have Hillary going to prison when she was supposed to be the next President.

We don't know that.
