Joe Biden got Ukrainian prosecutor fired who was working on a case involving Hunter Biden

  In addition to having hands he is not able to control Joe Biden also has a bit of a problem controlling his mouth. Much like his groping, it is no secret that the former Vice President has a tendency to put his foot in his mouth. Also like the groping this is laughed off by his supporters as Joe being Joe but I still remember the time Joe Biden gave away the location of the secret government bunker Dick Cheney hid in during September 11th. What a riot that one was…

  It is now being reported here that last year Joe Biden made a gaffe which he might not be laughing about in the near future. During an event with foreign policy experts Joe Biden decided to brag about how he got a Ukrainian prosecutor fired. Here is more:

Two years after leaving office, Joe Biden couldn’t resist the temptation last year to brag to an audience of foreign policy specialists about the time as vice president that he strong-armed Ukraine into firing its top prosecutor.

“I said, ‘You’re not getting the billion.’ I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: ‘I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money,’” Biden recalled telling Poroshenko.

“Well, son of a bitch, he got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time,” Biden told the Council on Foreign Relations event, insisting that President Obama was in on the threat.

That might be how Joe Biden would like the story to end but it does not:

 Ukrainian officials tell me there was one crucial piece of information that Biden must have known but didn’t mention to his audience: The prosecutor he got fired was leading a wide-ranging corruption probe into the natural gas firm Burisma Holdings that employed Biden’s younger son, Hunter, as a board member.

U.S. banking records show Hunter Biden’s American-based firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners LLC, received regular transfers into one of its accounts — usually more than $166,000 a month — from Burisma from spring 2014 through fall 2015, during a period when Vice President Biden was the main U.S. official dealing with Ukraine and its tense relations with Russia.

The general prosecutor’s official file for the Burisma probe — shared with me by senior Ukrainian officials — shows prosecutors identified Hunter Biden, business partner Devon Archer and their firm, Rosemont Seneca, as potential recipients of money.

  The article goes on to claim that the prosecutor was going to interview and question Hunter Biden but of course this firing presented that from ever happening, what a coincidence!

  Here is where it could get troublesome for ole Uncle Joe:

Lutsenko said some of the evidence he knows about in the Burisma case may interest U.S. authorities and he’d like to present that information to new U.S. Attorney General William Barr, particularly the vice president’s intervention.

  I would not expect much to come from this but maybe, just maybe, at least one of them will get what they deserve.
