Joe Biden Was Allegedly Paid $5 Million By... The Burisma Board, Document Hidden by FBI Claims

We all knew this would wind up being about Burisma, didn't we?


President Joe Biden was allegedly paid $5 million by an executive of the Ukrainian natural gas firm Burisma Holdings, where his son Hunter Biden sat on the board, a confidential human source told the FBI during a June 2020 interview, sources familiar told Fox News Digital.

The sources briefed Fox News Digital on the contents of the FBI-generated FD-1023 form alleging a criminal bribery scheme between then-Vice President Joe Biden and a foreign national that involved influence over U.S. policy decisions.

The FD-1023 form, dated June 30, 2020, is the FBI's interview with a "highly credible" confidential source who detailed multiple meetings and conversations he or she had with a top Burisma executive over the course of several years, starting in 2015. Fox News Digital has not seen the form, but it was described by several sources who are aware of its contents.



The Burisma executive sought the advice of the confidential source, a business professional, on gaining U.S. oil rights and getting involved with a U.S. oil company, the sources familiar with the documdnt said. The Burisma executive was speaking with the confidential source to "get advice on the best way to go forward" in 2015 and 2016.

According to the FD-1023 form, the confidential human source said the Burisma executive discussed Hunter's role on the board. The confidential human source questioned why the Burisma executive needed his or her advice in acquiring access to U.S. oil if he had Hunter Biden on the board. The Burisma executive answered by referring to Hunter Biden as "dumb."

The Burisma executive explained to the confidential source that Burisma had to "pay the Bidens" because Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin was investigating Burisma, and explained how difficult it would be to enter the U.S. market in the midst of that investigation.

The confidential source further detailed that conversation, suggesting to the Burisma executive that he "pay the Bidens $50,000 each," to which the Burisma executive replied, it is "not $50,000," it is "$5 million."

"$5 million for one Biden, $5 million for the other Biden," the Burisma executive told the confidential human source, according to a source familiar with the document.


A source familiar said according to the document, the $5 million payments appeared to reference a kind of "retainer" Burisma intended to pay the Bidens to deal with a number of issues, including the investigation led by Shokin. Another source referred to the arrangement as a "pay-to-play" scheme.

Sources familiar told Fox News Digital that the confidential human source believes that the $5 million payment to Joe Biden and the $5 million payment to Hunter Biden occurred, based on his or her conversations with the Burisma executive.

Remember when Hunter Biden complained to one of his family members that "at least dad doesn't take half of your salary"?

$5 million is half of the $10 million total, I notice.



The confidential source said the Burisma executive told him he "paid" the Bidens in such a manner "through so many different bank accounts" that investigators would not be able to "unravel this for at least 10 years."

The document then makes reference to "the Big Guy," which, has been said to be a reference to Joe Biden.

The Burisma executive told the confidential source that he "didn't pay the Big Guy directly."

So this source uses the same "Big Guy" codeword as we know the Biden family used internally.

Fox News Digital has learned that the confidential human source has been used by the FBI as a regular, reliable source of information since 2010 and has been paid approximately $200,000 by the bureau.

Sources said the Burisma executive appears to be at a "very, very high level" of the company. One source familiar suggested the confidential source could be referring to the head of Burisma, Mykola Zlochevsky, but said the name of the Burisma executive is redacted in the document.

Biden has acknowledged that when he was vice president, he successfully pressured Ukraine to fire prosecutor Viktor Shokin. At the time, Shokin was investigating Burisma Holdings, and at the time, Hunter had a highly-lucrative role on the board receiving thousands of dollars per month. The then-vice president threatened to withhold $1 billion of critical U.S. aid if Shokin was not fired.

"I said, 'You're not getting the billion. I'm going to be leaving here in,' I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: 'I'm leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you're not getting the money,'" Biden recalled telling then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko. Biden recollected the conversation during an event for the Council on Foreign Relations in 2018.

"Well, son of a bitch, he got fired," Biden said during the event. "And they put in place someone who was solid at the time.


Five flaming skulls, one for each of the million dollars that Joe Biden took as a bribe from a foreign country.

The FBI hid these allegations and sat on them from 2017 through today. Obviously they remained hidden during the 2020 election, when the FBI claimed that Hunter Biden's laptop was "Russian misinformation."

If House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer's sleuthing turns out to be right, the FBI harbored a deep, dark secret through the first Trump impeachment, the Hunter Biden laptop saga and the 2020 election fury. The secret: that a validated and well-paid informant raised concerns all the way back in 2017 that Joe Biden was involved in a $5 million bribery scheme involving Ukraine.

The question emerging now is did America's most famous crime-fighting agency deep-six the allegation or dismiss it as "Russian disinformation" without thoroughly probing it.

Comer made the bombshell revelation Tuesday night in an interview with Just the News, just a day after reviewing an FBI FD-1023 form that memorialized the informant's allegations, and two days before he plans to hold a vote in Congress to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt for failing to provide a copy to his committee as demanded by a subpoena.

He said the version of the informant report he was allowed to review by Wray had about 10% of information redacted and made clear the allegations were first reported to the Federal Bureau of Investigations back in 2017 as Donald Trump was beginning his term as president.

"Yes, it is Ukraine," Comer told the Just the News, No Noise television show when asked what country the alleged bribery involved. "This form 1023 involves a business person from Ukraine, who allegedly sent a bribe, a substantial bribe to then-Vice President Joe Biden."

No special counsel for Hunter and Joe, though! Merrick Garland assigned one for Trump -- someone who is about to indict him -- but kept the Hunter Biden investigation under his own control, and resists any efforts to even start one for Joe Biden.

And Bill Barr lamely forwarded this explosive allegation to the Democrat fake-investigating Hunter Biden in Delaware.


Former Attorney General Bill Barr disputed the account of Maryland Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin, who has insisted that the former Trump cabinet member and his "handpicked" prosecutor shut down an investigation into allegations that Joe Biden engaged in a bribery scheme while vice president.

"It's not true. It wasn't closed down," Barr told The Federalist on Tuesday. "On the contrary, it was sent to Delaware for further investigation."

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer and Raskin were permitted to view a form FD-1023 in possession of the FBI that details the alleged scheme earlier this week. The form includes allegations from a confidential human source asserting that Biden agreed to help change U.S. policy in exchange for a $5 million bribe sent to his family business.

After viewing the document, Comer insisted that there was an active investigation involving the allegations on the form. Raskin contradicted Comer's account in a presser following the viewing.

"I must have missed that because I've not heard that this is part of any ongoing investigation," he said, asserting further that "The FBI and the Department of Justice team, under [then-Attorney General] William Barr and Scott Brady, in the Western District of Pennsylvania terminated the investigation. They said there were no grounds for further investigative steps. So, they ended that."

Raskin has since pushed the narrative that Barr shut down the investigation in a press release, saying "Attorney General Barr and his hand-picked U.S. Attorney signed off on closing the assessment."

Remember that a whistleblower has come forward to allege that Merrick Garland perjured himself to Congress when he claimed he was giving that Delaware prosecutor all the authorizations and resources that he needed. The whistleblower reports that Merrick Garland is in fact refusing to allow the prosecutor to investigate anything outside of Delaware, and anything not involving Hunter Biden.

Like, for example: Allegations of a $5 million bribe paid to Joe Biden, then living in Washington, DC.

Who will be telling the the three letter agencies and Congress what to do without the head of the government and mastermind of the Democrat party in Joe Biden?

Why?

The FBI worked with the CIA and the Obama/Biden administration to run the coup in Ukraine in 2014. The FBI also knows that much of the dirt that came out during the 2016 election including much of the information that sent Manafort to prison came from Ukraine.

They are all on the same team.

169 Joe Biden has been being gotten rid of since before he was nominated. He's not being gotten rid of. They're enjoying this. All of them including Republicans.

The media is still telling everyone he's the King of Everything, Humble and Amazing at Everything. Even his Fall Recoveries are gold medal winning.

That's not what they do when they're "getting rid" of someone. But it is what they do when they're rubbing their genitals all over your immobilized face.

They're laughing and planning Biden's reelection party? Maybe escalating military actions against Russia. Just read DU...Trump's a super criminal and definitely going to jail, and Biden is a sweet old man that loves America, Democracy, and small kids, and is totally being framed by Republicans, but this not going to anything,because it's all BS and Biden is pure.

172 I'm hoping that Bribe'm Biden survives this long enough to secure the nomination. It would allow for an avalanche of ads comparing and contrasting how Biden was treated to a) single-moms who have to bartend/wait tables and who are subjected to the IRS scrutinizing their incomes for unreported $600 earnings in tips and b) how Trump was dealt with.

The ads write themselves, with one being: "Hey IRS guys! Cracking down on single moms for $601 in unreported tips while letting Biden get away with laundering $5 million?" And then throwing this in the faces of every Democrat candidate for Congress - why did you let Biden get away with this while you cracked down on the single moms out there?

Of course, the GOP would have to want to run these ads, which is the problem. If only we had a serious opposition party in this country...

But this is how the national conversation turned stupid.

Yeah, there was no wolf, so no one listens to the boy, but if somebody else entirely cries "Wolf!", would be really stupid to dismiss it as "another Wolf Theory".

"Oh really?! You want to defend a wolf theory?!"

There is corruption, and there are conspiracies. And both grow the more people suffer a stigma for even suggesting that either is the case.

187 Guys, y'all are missing one really big thing:

If the bribe was from Mykola Zlochevsky, it was probably on behalf of.... Vladimir Putin.

Who was more or less Zlochevsky's Patron, and used him to help control Ukraine back when he was doing so.

Putin used Burisma and similar companies to control Ukraine the way China uses Disney/Nike/CNN/Amazon/etc. to control the US.

Zlochevsky was Yanukovitch's environmental minister who basically gave Burisma (which he owned) the only available drilling permits to be able to drill for oil in Ukraine, which they mysteriously avoided using all the while being a big contractor for Russian companies Rosneft and Gazprom in places like Khazakstan.

That's what they were under investigation for after 2014. At least until Biden showed up, "Son of a Bitch..."

Hunter also got paid $3.5 million by the former wife of the former mayor of Moscow. She is also a big player in the Russia mob with strong ties to corruption in Ukraine.

Posted by: Archimedes at June 08, 2023 06:32 PM (eOEVl)

Russia was on record before the war that they wanted the Minsk Accords enforced and talks on the future status of Donbas discussed as ratified by the UN in 2015 and 2017. This might have left them as autonomous areas in Ukraine safe from legislations against Russian language and culture.

France and Germany had agreed to enforce those terms, and were lying about it. US and UK refused to allow any talks pre-war to restart negotiations.

So there were plenty of ways to delay, or avoid the war if the West had been interested. They wanted the war.

Not at all. My only point is just because Ukraine is corrupt, that does not mean that (a) Russia are good guys, (b) They should follow western ROE where you are not allowed to fight back, or (c) they need to allow Russia propaganda.

Check my posts from day-1 on this war, I said I could never trust Ukrainians and that the US must not send them money. DAY 1.

I also said they had good reason to want all Russians out of their country and God speed to them in their fight for independence. Just not on my dime. Further, I said that if they are corrupt, well, how much of that is our fault? We sent them corrupt money and asked for some back in vig. At this point the US is one of the top corrupting forces in the world Shame on us.

Dems ask R's for support to "come together as a nation". R's are all in.

But watch them indict my president, Donald Trump, over some bullshit charge!

Putin invaded for the simplest reason. Because he could. What made him suddenly capable? High oil prices. The last time oil prices were as high as they were in the run up to the Russian invasion was when the Russians invaded Ukraine last time.

Domestic energy production defangs Russia and Iran. Not completely, but it eliminates many options for them and it's great for our economy. So naturally it must be prevented at all costs by our leaders.

261 The confidential source said the Burisma executive told him he "paid" the Bidens in such a manner "through so many different bank accounts" that investigators would not be able to "unravel this for at least 10 years."

This is another of those times where I simply depart from folks here, and folks on the other side.

Certain peeps here love the "gotcha' moment" - where the evidence is suddenly disclosed like an episode of Perry Mason. Certain folks on the other side work like Hell to prevent that moment.

As soon as I knew Hunter Biden was on the board at Burisma ? Or selling paintings for six figures ? I knew all I needed to know. Just like McConnell marrying a Chinese chic from a rich family. Or McCain telling his old lady that waited on him to get out of the camps to fuck off, while he married an heiress to a beer distributorship. And on and on.

To me, it's not a Flaming Skull moment. It's a "no shit" moment.

271 I want to be clear to oldcat.

I still call them the KGB because the KGB are still in charge. They have split off the FSB, as a branch office but that is only a division of the old regime. The USSR had several factions but the KGB won and took over. The top leaders went into the oligarch business and now Putin is in charge, but they all had ties to the KGB and moved up. I guess calling the country The KGB Republic was a little too on the nose so they went with Russian Federation, but I think it is clear to all what it is - a country based on a crime syndicate based on a state intelligence office. (Hey, why does that sound familiar?)

I think a lot of that is the actual Pentagon faction versus the Neocons and others at State/WH.

They actually have something to lose if Russian anti-air starts dropping our planes and airmen out of the sky or if cheap Russian shells start landing on the Marines in some small village.

They may have some appreciation that our AF can't operate on airstrips carved out of a small highway and we have no answer to Russian missiles. They already looked pretty bad when the HIMARS launches became stoppable and the Patriot antimissiles were taken out.

For example, you can't name who truly is the Executive Authority in this kakistocracy. It sure as hell isn't Biden.

You can't also identify who the FBI is accountable to, or for that matter the State Department, which acts like a government independent of any other structure and is completely unaccountable to any formerly recognized branch of Government.

No. On this, I'm sure I'm right. Just as the idea of Left vs. Right is an outdated notion - so is the idea of this stupid pendulum.

It's not a pendulum, and it's not promised to swing. It's a swivel, pushed on by various teams, who are mostly watched by those who don't care until the swivel gets too tilted.

And even then, it really doesn't matter, because those who watch usually find themselves pushing back too late to matter. We call those moments Wars and Regimes and such.

One thing that will help kill the old version of Contemporary Conservatism is killing this idea that if you simply wait long enough, things are bound to correct themselves. That's not how it works.

For example, you can't name who truly is the Executive Authority in this kakistocracy. It sure as hell isn't Biden.

You can't also identify who the FBI is accountable to, or for that matter the State Department, which acts like a government independent of any other structure and is completely unaccountable to any formerly recognized branch of Government.

Furthermore, through several decades of Enabling Acts, Congress is basically just a grifting machine and has nothing to do with any portion of Article I of the long abandoned US Constitution.

It's a pretty common historical pattern in states with weak kings and a strong bureaucracy. Mandarins in China, Late Stage Rome and later Byzantine Empires. You get the factions, internal squabbling, puppet leaders for the executive position.

They impeached Trump for trying to re-invigorate this "debunked" theory of corruption.

410 So is Zelensky forcing biden to pony up with the military aid?

I don't think he has to. He's just the figurehead they trot out to beg for money, but all of them want to give money to protect the graft and the system in place. Ukraine is basically their restaurant.

Remember in Goodfellas when Hill describes how Paulie becomes a partner in the restaurant and they just ruin the place, eating for free, ordering and taking stuff out without paying for it, etc, until they have to burn the place down for insurance?

Ukraine is the organized crime of DC's Restaurant. The "owner" is Zelenskyyyy. They probably have a good half dozen of these places that they run and ruin just to enrich themselves. And let's not forget all those gorgeous, poor Ukranian girls to traffick.

Posted by: JackStraw at June 08, 2023 07:11 PM (ZLI7S)

It would still be deleted, the deletion denied and the GOP would urge everyone to move along and send another multi-billion aid package to Ukraine, though.

The document was kept back for when they got ready to oust Biden, which may be now. All that talk recently about showing Kamala some respect? They will arrest Trump for doing absolutely nothing, Biden will leave office, and all will be good.

465 The Bidens made just under $400k in his last year as VP (2016). AGI jumped to over $11mm in 2017, $4.5mm in 2018 and $1mm in 2019. Bribes were in 2017, & the NY Times and other liberal rags are saying his returns show that huge jump was from book royalties and 'speaking fees'.

If Joe received anything substantive--certainly $5mm would be--he'd be a fool not to report it (I know, he's a fool), so I imagine he lied and called it 'professional fees', and it should be easy enough for congressional Republicans to look into each payment.

Biden faces huge tax issues if true. If he didn't report it--like his crackhead son--that's felony tax evasion. Splitting it into LLCs controlled by family members who then kick back money doesn't change it being income to the Big Guy. If he did report it, but lied about what the money was from, it is also a tax crime.

Most FCPA violations aren't for bribery, but the books & records section of the FCPA and how the companies record the illicit payment.

Maybe the New York or Delaware Attorney General can look into this as they seem very concerned with violations of business records and how things are recorded.
