    Ukrainian MP: Joe Biden got nearly $1M from Burisma for lobbying

    A Ukrainian member of Parliament said former Vice President Joe Biden received $900,000 from Burisma for lobbying activities and called for the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate further, according to Ukrainian news agency Interfax.

    Ukrainian MP Andriy Derkach said he has documentation to back up his claim, which he said he will post on his Facebook page.

    "This was the transfer of Burisma Group's funds for lobbying activities, as investigators believe, personally to Joe Biden through a lobbying company," Derkach said. "Funds in the amount of $900,000 were transferred to the U.S.-based company Rosemont Seneca Partners, which according to open sources, in particular, the New York Times, is affiliated with Biden. The payment reference was payment for consultative services."

        More conservative allegations, no evidence.

          Are you kidding Jim? This is from a Ukrainian news agency:

          KYIV. Oct 9 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden received $900,000 for lobbying activities from Burisma Group, Ukraine's Verkhovna Rada member Andriy Derkach said citing investigation materials.

          Derkach publicized documents which, as he said, "describe the mechanism of getting money by Biden Sr." at a press conference at Interfax-Ukraine's press center in Kyiv on Wednesday.

          "This was the transfer of Burisma Group's funds for lobbying activities, as investigators believe, personally to Joe Biden through a lobbying company. Funds in the amount of $900,000 were transferred to the U.S.-based company Rosemont Seneca Partners, which according to open sources, in particular, the New York Times, is affiliated with Biden. The payment reference was payment for consultative services," Derkach said.

          • Zelensky Repeats:


            Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told reporters Thursday his controversial July call with President Trump involved no bribe, blackmail or quid pro quo, as impeachment-minded Democrats claim.

            Zelensky spoke at a daylong event with media inside a Kiev food market, and said he believes the transcript released by the White House is accurate and that he knew the U.S. had withheld $400 million in military aid due to concerns about corruption and concern for American "taxpayer money." But the issue, he said, was never linked to Trump's desire that Kiev rekindle an investigation into an energy company with ties to former Vice President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden.

            "There was no blackmail," Zelensky said. "They blocked this money and nobody asked us [for] anything,"

              Rosemont Seneca Partners was Hunter Bidens company, not Joe Bidens. and the assertion that "investigaters believe" is not evidence of anything other than the assertion that "investigators believe."

                  No, not because he's personally afraid of Trump, but because he is the president of a country who is in the middle of a war with Russia and who desperately needed military and economic assistance. Besides that, Trump held up that desperately needed aid for months and when asked for by Zelensky, Trump, when answering, "I need a favor from you though," the favor asked for wasn't about corruption in general, he asked for help investigating the 2016 election, CrowdStrike, and his political rival Joe Biden.

                    Actually you may be right:

                    UPDATE, 10/10/2019 at 11:55 a.m. EST: John Solomon, an executive vice president at The Hill and contributor to Fox News, reported that no such $900,000 payment was made from Burisma to Biden.

                    I tend to trust Solomon...
