https://nypost.com/2023/08/04/viktor-shokin-was-threat-to-burisma-says-hunter-biden-partner-devon-archer/ WASHINGTON — Ukrainian prosecutor-general Viktor Shokin, who was fired after then-Vice President Joe Biden threatened to pull $1 billion in US aid, was “a threat” to natural gas company Burisma Holdings, which paid Hunter Biden up to $1 million per year, the first son’s former business partner Devon Archer confirmed in an interview released Friday. “He was a threat. He ended up seizing assets of [Burisma owner] Nikolai [Zlochevsky] — a house, some cars, a couple properties. And Nikolai actually never went back to Ukraine after Shokin seized all of his assets,” Archer told former Fox News host Tucker Carlson. Shokin’s office won a court order to seize Zlochevsky’s property on Feb. 2, 2016, the Kyiv Post reported at the time. Shokin was fired on March 29, purportedly due to his own corruption. Archer’s remarks are significant because they contradict the position of House Democrats that Shokin was not considered a threat to Burisma — a point likely to be hotly contested if Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) launches an impeachment inquiry, as he said last week was becoming likely. I think you are incorrect. mspart

To show what hypocrites they are: Seattle Children's Hospital had a top surgery scheduled on a 16 year old. Day after Trump said no m ore, they cancelled the surgery. They could not afford to lose all the federal funds that keeps them in the black. These crusaders are in it for the money, not for the fundamental reasons they said, for the care of the adolescent. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/health/seattle-childrens-halts-some-gender-affirming-surgeries-following-trump-order/ mspart

You would think. It takes people on the right to support the women. First they said there isn't a problem. Next they said gender affirming care and surgery isn't happening. Next they said it is happening and it is a great thing that it is happening. Next they said it is beautiful that a man pretends to be a woman and competes athletically against them and creams them. Next they said there needs to be more gender surgery and must have them in prisons and for illegal aliens in prison. Next they demanded Title IX be changed to say a man is a woman. Now they complain that it is such a small problem that it is not worth taking any action over. They are the ones that made it a problem in the first place. And now they try to down play the effect. An honest look at this shows this is the case. mspart

Are there any black farm owners in S Africa that have had their land dispossessed? They should get the same deal. But it wasn't, it was the Afrikaners whose lands were dispossessed. Mugabe did this in Zimbabwe. They were a net exporter of food before this action. After this action they were a net importer of food because they took out the people who know how to farm and make money at it. They gave the farms to the workers who didn't and the farms failed. Each is a vendetta against a racial group. But that vendetta will backfire if they don't put people in there that know how to care for the land like the landowner does. Workers know only a part of how to run a successful farm. There is more to it than planting, watering, and picking. Just like socialists the world over, they don't think through a situation enough to see that their idea won't really work. But they are too invested in their ideology to stop. And they ruin their country. mspart

Are people driving up the cost of a share of Tesla stock because he is buddies with Trump? If so, apparently share holders are betting that the incentives to buy an ecar that Trump just rescinded won't hurt Tesla? Interesting logic. mspart

Shokin fired March 2016. Hunter joined Burisma board 2014. Your dates are off just a little. You and Joe don't know anything about Hunter's international dealings. Nice try. mspart

So you are saying that his worth is up 200 billion because of a couple of weeks of USAID? Comeon now, You said since the election. When did this 200Billion magically show up? https://www.investopedia.com/elon-musk-net-worth-tesla-spacex-ai-300-billion-8740315 Tesla CEO Elon Musk is the richest person in the world as of December 2024 and became the first person to have a net worth of over $400 billion, according to Bloomberg.1 The Bloomberg Billionaires Index estimates his net worth at around $442 billion as of this writing.2 Musk's net worth is largely driven by his stakes in Tesla and privately held rocket and satellite manufacturing company, SpaceX. Tesla's shares have increased nearly 70% in 2024, and have jumped since the election. Meanwhile, an insider share sale of SpaceX in December 2024 boosted Musk's net worth by about $50 billion, according to Bloomberg.1 Musk's net worth has increased by 77% since Trump's reelection as president in November, per Bloomberg.1 Musk has been vocal in his support for Trump, Forbes reported, joining him on the campaign trail and becoming Trump's second largest donor by putting $118 million into America PAC, which Musk created.3 Musk was appointed as co-lead of President-elect Trump's new Department of Government Efficiency, alongside former Republican presidential candidate, Vivek Ramaswamy. So he was worth 226 Billion before the election and at the end of Dec was worth 400 Billion? And this because the stock in his companies has gone up that much? He hasn't had time to do anything of real importance yet with DOGE. I fail to understand with Trumps stand on renewable energy and scrapping money for e cars, how this would help Tesla which grew 70% in value in 2024, not just since the election. mspart

How did he get 200 Billion since the election? You say it but you don't say how? mspart

Here we have RV, a self proclaimed budget hawk, complaining about someone digging into spending and rooting out waste. This is really funny. Oh yeah, right. RV wants more taxes but no tightening of spending except in DOD expenditures. mspart

Is Brooks injured? mspart

That's why the Feds are looking at this now. CBS tried to cheat and it is right there. Rather than reporting the news, they wanted Harris to look better than she did. They edited the interview so that that was the case. mspart

They were funny and usually spot on. A few times the chumps were stumped and they played those as well. mspart

So we are to wait until the womens soccer team is 100% trannies before we take action here? And we should wait until the majority of women's athletic scholarships are given to trannies? There is a thing called Nip it in the bud. That stops growth. Easy to do earlier rather than later. mspart

That's a good question. But since this is a recent social contagion/phenomenon I would venture to guess it is markedly higher 2020-2025. I have heard on the radio that the majority of those saying they were the opposite sex were very young boys who said this from very young age to adult hood. Young girls did not participate in this stuff until just recently and it has exploded for boys and girls. So are we to expect that this is a natural rather than contrived situation and that hundreds and thousands of boys and girls have been wanting to be the opposite sex for centuries? There is no evidence of that. There have been eunuchs that were emasculated and they were not considered women. They were just considered no threat to the harem of the big guy. This stuff is not new, the new part is that the incorrect thought that you can transition from one sex to the other. That can't be done. That is science. mspart

3 months to think about it!! Where did you ship to? mspart

Very telling graph. Germany is in big doo doo. mspart

Perhaps. mspart

Ah but it is now. Before school programs, after school programs. 4 year old kindergarten, and people are working on getting preschool in the public schools. mspart

I like that principle. mspart

In other words, Trump is a Buffoon and it wouldn't help him anyway, but Harris is not a buffoon and it would help her. Plus she is a woman and needs all the advantages she can get. That is what is being said by Trip. One standard for all would be welcome. mspart

Yep, the Tappet Bros were the funniest show, laughing at their own jokes was hilarious. mspart

The left is against anything that threatens their power. That is why the left is squealing so loudly about USAID. They are supporting funding trans operas in Colombia and LGBT comic books in Peru. Obviously they are because they are not condemning those expenditures, just saying they are all good and no action should be taken. It has been shown the USAID has been behind regime changes. There are reports that they helped fund the CIA effort to get rid of Trump 1.0. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/bombshell-usaid-cia-state-dept-played-role-in-1st-trump-impeachment-top-reporter-in-america/ar-AA1yxvbf?ocid=EMMX&apiversion=v2&noservercache=1&domshim=1&renderwebcomponents=1&wcseo=1&batchservertelemetry=1&noservertelemetry=1 mspart

80% increase over 10 years is way more than the inflation rate for those years. HOwever, where that money goes is the question. And I asked that question at the beginning, do the teachers get increases or is it the admin and new buildings with state of the art sports and drama facilities? mspart

The conditions in which they work sucks. That's why there is a shortage. You are a Middle School or HS teacher, you have a freakishly good chance of being assaulted by a student or the class is held hostage to an unruly student(s), such that you cannot deliver the content you need to get out. And there are no repercussions to the student. We have given students so many rights and privileges that they can disrupt the learning environment and assault staff with virtual impunity. And the real problem is the parents who think their little johnny is such an angel and couldn't do this and don't punish the cherub at home for their behavior in school. It is a societal decline that has been in the making for decades. I am old enough that I was spanked in elementary and one time in jr high. They called it swat in jr high. More manly. We never had the kinds of issues in the 60's and 70's that they have now. Teachers had it easy back then. Because if you did something at school and got punished, you prayed your parents didn't find out because it would be worse at home. That doesn't happen anymore. No amount of money will change that. That would have to be a societal change. mspart

Bondi suing sanctuaries. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14370855/attorney-general-pam-bondi-warning-states-illegal-aliens.html Attorney General Pam Bondi warned sanctuary cities they 'are going to be next' if local officials continue to harbor and protect illegal aliens over the safety of citizens. Speaking with Fox News' Sean Hannity, Bondi, 59, shared how under her leadership the Justice Department sued the city of Chicago and its mayor Brandon Johnson earlier in the day over its progressive sanctuary policies. 'Not only did we sue today the city of Chicago, we sued the state of Illinois, we sued the mayor, we sued the governor, and we sued others,' she said. The Department of Justice also put a pause on all federal funding to sanctuary states and cities and nonprofits, according to a memo Bondi sent out Thursday. Will the states win this one? I don't think so. Constitutionally, federal law is superior to state or local law. Period. mspart
