RFK Jr. Calls For Investigation Into Biden Bribery Allegations
During an appearance on Fox News over the weekend, Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called for an investigation into bribery allegations against President Joe Biden.
After several months of demanding that the FBI turn over an FD-1023 form detailing the bribery allegations against Biden — which Congress was made aware of by a whistleblower — Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) was finally able to release the form on July 20.
The document alleges that Mykola Zlochevsky — the founder and CEO of Ukrainian energy firm Burisma, where Hunter Biden previously worked — told a highly credible FBI confidential human source that he had been “coerced” into paying Joe and Hunter Biden each $5 million to shut down an investigation into his company. The investigation was reportedly being conducted by then-Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin — who was the subject of Biden’s infamous bragging about getting a prosecutor fired in exchange for U.S. loan guarantees.
“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 Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko during a discussion at the Council on Foreign Relations event.
In light of the new evidence, Kennedy told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo that the news was “troubling” and called for an investigation into the issue.
“I have avoided criticizing the President because I, you know, I’m trying to bring people together and end some of the vitriol, the poison that’s made politics so poisonous,” Kennedy said during his appearance on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.”
“I think though the issues that are now coming up are worrying enough that we really need a real investigation of what happened. I mean, these revelations about the, you know, where you have Burisma — which is a notoriously corrupt company that paid out apparently $10 million to Hunter and his dad — if that’s true, then it is really troubling,” he argued, adding that the matter “needs to be investigated.”
Kennedy went on to note that alongside demanding an investigation into the allegations, Americans need to be concerned about the politicization and weaponization of federal law enforcement agencies.
“I think that that’s something that every American needs to worry about and our federal agencies, which used to be above politics, and now become weaponized as political instruments, and that, again, is another really damaging trend for our democracy,” the Democrat presidential candidate explained.
