"Everybody wanted Shokin fired" ................................ There goes that line of bullshit.



Hmmmm. Victor Shokin — the top Ukraine prosecutor whom then-Veep Joe Biden got fired in March 2016 for alleged malfeasance — sure was popular with the rest of the Obama administration.

That love shines through in newly unearthed documents:

We have been impressed with the ambitious reform and anti-corruption agenda of your government,” gushed the State Department’s Ukraine point person Victoria Nuland to Shokin in summer 2015.

“Ukraine has made sufficient progress on its reform agenda to justify a third guarantee” of aid money, noted another federal functionary that October.



: As late as January 2016, the CIA was dumping on claims that Shokin was crooked.

When rumors started to buzz in-country that further aid money was tied to Shokin’s ouster, the agency responded with a literal “Yikes.”

So said agency Ukraine expert Eric Ciaramella, later adding (of a DC meeting with senior leaders from Shokin’s office): “We were super impressed with the group, and we had a two-hour discussion of their priorities and the obstacles they face.”
IIR, Eric Ciaramella was Adam Schiff's secret "whistleblower" brought in to claim Trump tried to muscle Ukraine... the same guy who earlier said Shokin was doing a great job.


You know who did consider Shokin bad news, though?

Hunter’s former partner, Devon Archer.

Archer told former Fox host Tucker Carlson on his new show that
Shokin “was a threat.”

Why? Because “he ended up seizing assets” from Burisma’s owner Mykola Zlochevsky, who reportedly told a credible FBI informant that he had paid $10 million in bribes to Hunter and Joe.
The ... recordings, however, appear to show
Poroshenko saying he had "no information" that Shokin had done "something wrong."
"Yesterday I met with General Prosecutor Shokin, and despite of the fact that we didn’t have any corruption charges, we don’t have any information about him doing something wrong..."


--------well sonofabitch.... he got fired anyway.


The full interview will air Saturday evening at 8 pm ET with Brian Kilmeade. <<<<<<<<<<-----------------------------------


The White House is accusing Fox News of giving a 'platform to lies' by airing the interview.
