But did you ever think that the main reason Joe was quick to support Ukraine with American tax dollars and weapons was to keep the facts of Burisma quiet and keep his son Hunter's dealings under wrap? Demanding the firing of the prosecutor investigating his sons case was insanely wrong. Bragging about it on national television was even more damning.
Well, I can not be the arbiter of truth here. But there's strong indication that this was not what happened. Investigations into Burisma were described as dormant at the time and allegedly slow-walked by Shokin himself, and as far as I know there was no case against Hunter personally. And Mr. Shokin had a grim reputation as leading an overtly corrupt department, whose leading employees literally stashed diamonds and whatnot and still were protected from investigations. Shokin's ouster was also requested by the European Union and many other governments, and they most likely did not think about Hunter Biden.
So, to me there's just no solid indication that your version of events is accurate. Still might be, but there's no real proof.
