The Biden family’s crimes have been repeatedly exposed over the last few years, but we are still finding more information about how deep the corruption goes. Now we know that even the FBI is running cover for the Bidens.
In an exposé by John Solomon for Just the News, it was revealed that the FBI uncovered plans as early as 2016 indicating Hunter Biden and his associates aimed to establish a venture in tax-friendly Liechtenstein, backed by a staggering $120 million investment from Burisma Holdings’ owner, Mykola Zlochevsky. These revelations were hidden from the public for eight years.
This major investment endeavor was conceived while Hunter Biden sat on Burisma’s board and Joe Biden oversaw U.S. policy toward Ukraine. Hunter Biden was also slated to serve on the board of the new entity, Burnham Energy Security LLC, which was to receive a significant share of the venture’s profits without any capital contribution. As one partner testified to Congress, “Burnham also reached an agreement with a Ukrainian oligarch, Mykola Zlochevsky, for a $120 million investment into a new Burnham entity.”
The documents reveal that Zlochevsky’s commitment was a strategic move to expand Burisma globally while attempting to evade corruption allegations in Ukraine. Vadym Pozharskyi, a top aide to Zlochevsky, emphasized the importance of Hunter Biden’s involvement for credibility in Ukraine.
This scheme, however, faced significant hurdles. In September 2015, Hunter Biden’s associate, Jason Galanis, was arrested for securities fraud, and on the same day, U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt pressured Ukrainian prosecutors to pursue Zlochevsky on corruption charges. This led Burisma to hire the Democrat-aligned lobbying firm Blue Star Strategies to mitigate the fallout.
The plan ultimately faltered, but the emails and documents show how the Bidens use their name for profit. This evidence reveals the deeply entrenched corruption of the Biden family.
