    I ignore the first two, because it is the Congress that actually controls it.

    What about covering Hunter in Ukraine?

    • did you know that Shokin didn’t start the Burisma investigation? or that he did nothing with the case (according to his deputy) during barely a year in the office. Sounds like it was in best of Hunter’s interest to keep him
    • did you know that it was official US stance to have him removed, not only that, but this also was requested by EU, INF and the WorldBank to provide support for Ukraine by them
    • did you know that Shokin was highly unpopular, and Ukrainians demand his removal, because of not investigation corruption (like in case of Burisma) as well as refusing to prosecute those that gave orders to open fire at protesters during EuroMaidan?
    • did you know that at the time impeachment pretty much every party was against him and only the ruling party was refusing to move until Biden talk to the president of Ukraine. Once that happened he lost in massive numbers: https://youtu.be/ghCnYboblhU

    Read more about it, before you use that idiotic argument.

      Great facts, but his son is still living la vida and the father can do anything but allow genocide armstices.

      Obama promised to close Guantanamo. Isn’t it then at least possible for a president? Or why did ppl buy that and vote?

      We know that politics in Spain. Dirty business until caught, knowing still you are never gonna sit jail. Father may’ve stopped him, but in the end it’s been for son’s good.
