The tangled web of corruption woven by the Biden family over the past decade at least is beginning to be unwound, and it is shocking, the level of corruption that is being revealed. According to Breitbart News, "Burisma Holdings executive Vadym Pozharskyi informed Hunter Biden in 2016 that he was opening a Maltese bank account for him." The Twitter account of Kanekoa the Great laid out more details in a thread. "Emails from the Biden laptop reveal a newly discovered Hunter Biden Maltese bank account opened by Burisma that coincides with the $10 million bribery allegations involving Biden and Burisma, as reported by an FBI source," the thread began. "Mykola Zlochevsky, Burisma's founder, allegedly paid a $5 million bribe each to then-VP Joe Biden and Hunter Biden. Zlochevsky, who faced investigations for money laundering, reportedly employed Hunter to leverage his political influence in order to halt the investigations," it continued. Kanekoa noted that in 2018, Joe Biden acknowledged that he had exerted pressure on Ukraine's President to dismiss prosecutor Viktor Shokin, who was conducting an investigation into his son's Ukrainian energy company. Biden utilized the leverage of a potential withholding of a $1 billion US loan guarantee as part of this effort. That tweet contained a video of Biden literally discussing engaging in a quid pro quo with the government of then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko (reminder: Trump's first impeachment involved a fake allegation that he engaged in a quid pro quo with current Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy). Breitbart News noted further: Emails uncovered by the nonprofit Marco Polo suggest Burisma tried to move money to the Bidens through a Maltese bank account set up by Pozharskyi for Hunter Biden. In May 2016, Pozharskyi requested the documentation required for the account opening, including a copy of Hunter’s passport, a bank reference letter, and a utility bill. Hunter responded to Pozharskyi, “We are working on this – I was traveling with my dad and had my passport abroad last week." Kanekoa noted further: "In the subsequent weeks, Hunter Biden's assistant, Joan Mayer, provided copies of Hunter's documentation, as requested. Mayer also suggested providing a letter from Hunter's corporation, Owasco, to confirm his annual salary, asking, 'Is that what the bank is looking for?'" "A Burisma attorney sent an email to Hunter, sharing the address and swift code of Satabank, the Maltese bank. A few days later, Hunter's assistant sent 'Hunter's tax ID number and signature' to the Burisma executive, who responded with a confirmation: 'All received!'" "In 2018, Satabank was closed for money laundering violations. In 2019, all accounts were frozen, and investigations started for suspicious transactions tied to illegal activities. Auditors found in 2020 that around €11 billion in suspicious transactions went through Satabank," Kanekoa noted further. "Vadym Pozharskyi facilitated the establishment of the Maltese bank account for Hunter Biden a year after Hunter introduced his father to the Burisma executive." "In a now-infamous email, Pozharskyi revealed that Hunter Biden and his business partner Devon Archer operated as unregistered foreign lobbyists by organizing a private dinner with then-Vice President Joe Biden at Cafe Milano in D.C.," Kanekoa noted further. (Another reminder: Earlier reports noted that federal investigators were allegedly looking into whether Hunter Biden acted as an unregistered foreign lobbyist, which is illegal.) Fun fact: Archer is reportedly negotiating to provide testimony about these bribes to the GOP-controlled House Oversight Committee. Imagine how many other political leaders who have been in Washington for years are just as corrupt. No wonder they never want to leave.
