Political Discussion
Really? His name is Yuriy Lutesnko and this is from his wiki page: In 2010, Lutsenko was charged with abuse of office and forgery by Prosecutor General of Ukraine Viktor Pshonka, in what was widely viewed as political retaliation for having investigated one of Yanukovych's cabinet members four years earlier. In 2012, he was sentenced to four years in prison, but was pardoned by Yanukovych. |
So the way you described him was not true. He did have experience and his previous conviction was political retaliation by Yanukovych, the corrupt Pro-Russian stooge that corrupt Paul Manafort worked for. You keep citing the corrupt bad guys instead of the good guys. |
PP - When you cant attack the message and rather attack the messenger is the epitome of low information. |
Well, it is true. |
Nope. Not all of it. He still owes for 2014, but the DOJ conveniently let the statute of limitations expire for that. And, according to Shapley, who should know, he owed more than he paid for 2017 and 2018. And, let's be clear - Hunter didn't pay. Kevin Morris paid for him. Too bad De Sousa didn't have rich friends to help him out. https://nypost.com/2023/06/28/hunter-biden-prosecutor-made-obstruction-crystal-clear-whistleblower/ |

Hunter Biden was selling access to his dad.
His dad gave the access--which is proven by these phone calls. And, he knew that his son was being paid for that. That is enough. The prosecutor may have deserved to be fired--but the timing of it and payments to Hunter leave a lot of questions unanswered. |
You don’t know any of the facts. Shokin was fired by the Ukrainian parliament months later after Christine Lagarde, head of the IMF, made it a nonnegotiable condition of continued IMF financing. It had nothing to do with Burisma and Biden wasn’t going rogue in making the demand. Firing corrupt Shokin was a unanimous demand from every Western lender and investor in Ukraine. Stop beating this dead horse. It isn’t going to run. |
P.s. If Hunter was only selling 'illusion of access" as Goldman alleges, it does not matter. His dad assisted him with this by taking multiple phone calls with his business associates. He knew Hunter was being paid by these people. That is enough. |
That's enough for what? |
To have been criminal. Helping family member collect money for "illusion of access." |
Let's see somebody formally bring a case then. As you've seen with respect to how difficult it is to bring a career criminal like Trump to justice, there is a LONG way from here to there. |
That’s 100% wrong. Politicians take phone calls and meetings with everyone, it’s literally most of what they do. Biden is famous for calling and taking phone calls with everybody and their mother. If Mitch McConnell called him during a meeting, he would take the call and talk to everyone in the room. It doesn’t mean he will do anything inappropriate for any of them. According to your SCOTUS in the McDonnell case, there is no crime without a tangible quid pro quo. McDonnell took bribes and made phone calls and set up meetings but the state did not do what the briber requested, so SCOTUS overturned the conviction. Biden didn’t do any of that. Even Ron Johnson admitted in the Senate report that there is no evidence that Joe personally received anything from Burisma and no evidence that he did anything inappropriate for Burisma. You have nothing. It’s a dead horse. |
Quid pro quo: millions and millions for his family members- |
And yet that seems to be enough for some prosecutors as well.... These cases are being "tried" in the court of public opinion, long before a courtroom jury ever gets to decide them. The only "jury" that matters right now are the voters. |
