@StevenTorrey how was he corrupt? Nobody ever proved that. However, everything points to corruption at Burisma and the Biden’s… what he did was never done before.
At the outset of our Ukraine intervention, it was US policy for Ukraine to recover oil and gas assets believed to have been stolen from the Ukrainian people by Zlochevsky when he was the Ukrainian Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources between 2010 and 2012.
As a result, Zlochevsky hired a politically connected DC firm, Star Strategies, to lobby the US State Department to change this policy. Shortly after Biden became US point man, in February 2014, Zlochevsky hired Hunter Biden and his partner Devon Archer as Burisma Board members at up to $160,000 per month, ostensibly to advise on corporate governance. Neither was required to go to Ukraine to attend board meetings. Neither were experts in corporate governance. And Burisma, a privately-owned company, had little need for corporate governance advice. Had it had such a need and had Hunter and Archer actually been corporate governance experts, this was a truly astonishing price to pay for such services.
Bear in mind, it is possible to provide a financial inducement to a public official to alter his conduct in one’s favor through money provided to his offspring. And it has been done in many places many times. Sometimes the official shares in the bounty directly, something suggested by the emails recently found on Hunter Biden’s laptop. All this strongly suggests a cover up.
The reality was that Hunter and Archer were obviously close to Hunter’s father Joe Biden and they were also close to Secretary of State John Kerry, a close ally of the Bidens. They immediately began lobbying the State Department higher-ups including meetings with Kerry. There are documents that support this. And Zlochevsky made a large contribution to a Delaware charity in the name of Biden’s deceased son, Beau. Archer also held a $10,000 a plate fundraiser for Kerry’s daughter.
