Despite years of Biden family and media disinformation, we are finally learning that President Joe Biden really did fire Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin for looking into state corruption involving the oil company Burisma and Hunter Biden -- and ultimately Joe Biden himself.
As vice president, Biden, in his own words, bragged that he had threatened to cancel the deliverance of American foreign aid to Ukraine unless Shokin was dismissed.
So what is Congress to do now -- un-impeach and exonerate an innocent impeached Donald Trump, and instead impeach a guilty Biden for essentially the same allegations?

Most of Congress is just as corrupt and crooked as Joe Biden is. Nothing will be done until he is carried out of the Oval Office or, more likely off the beach in Delaware, then we will have to endure a week-long funeral with a shameful burial in Arlington alongside America's heroes.

FTA: “ Instead, Smith argues that Trump unlawfully took out classified presidential papers --although Joe Biden did nearly the same.”
Come on. Biden did not do nearly the same. He had no right to classified documents. He was not protected by the Presidential Records Act because he was not President when he squirreled these document away. Trump also had them under lock and key with Secret Service on the premises. Joes were scattered all over and even stacked in his garage.
One more beef. Is it really necessary to inject adjectives like “combative and boisterous”? We know, you think Trump is gauche and apparently that is a much worse sin than the illegitimate debauched pathological liar that defines Joseph Robinette Biden. I admit I may be getting cranky, but is it necessary to create these untruthful comparisons and continually pointing out your opinion on Trump’s personality. Would you have done that with Patton or MacArthur? Two great men who were integral in the effort to save the Republic even though they both were combative and boisterous? No one expects fawning words of praise, but can you please just take a pass on pointing out at every opportunity Trump’s style? He is not a normal character in history, none of the great and effective people are. Cut him some slack because he is the best choice we have for pulling the Republic back from the abyss and we cannot afford to affirm democrat and feckless Rino talking points.

Let's hope they carry that disgusting creep Traitor Joe out of office or off some Dirtywear beach feet first real soon.
And as for his burial, let's count on mobs of MAGA Patriots showing up at Arlington (or wherever) with "Good Riddance to Bad Rubbish" signs.

Has any mention been made of the piles and piles of the Classified Documents found in various locations of belonging to the Biden's, dating back to when he was a Senator? Why has that story been buried by the MSM?
The powers that be shroud everything under the guise of an "investigation," until the statute of limitations run out. Does the DOJ/FBI realize they\re running a RICO operation for Democrats by doing such things?
President Trump had better pull together the very best retired Judges and Prosecutors from all over the nation to use as an investigative "Special Counsel" to investigate all the hijinks that have happened in the past 10 years and to "investigate the investigators." Such a team would hopefully also find out the connections between government and the billionaires trying to "turbo-boost" change in America, societally, racially, ethically, and politically. It is a "soft-rebellion" and Biden is the perfect stooge for the job. A fool kicked to the sidelines for decades in the Senate while others succeeded, including that "clean and articulate," black boy from Illinois who gave him a do-nothing job for 8 years. No, this is all Joe Biden's revenge against the American political system that didn't recognize his "genius."

I cant understand why Obama's name is never mentioned in Joe's mess. He had to have known everything Joe was doing. Blaming it all on Joe gets him off the hook.

You're right, #5. So, it's good some on Newsmax refer to him as Obiden. But ALL should.

#2 - Agree 100% about how even rational pundits like VDH never fail to comment on Trump's supposed boorishness, etc - so-called character flaws. While Biden is being televised around the world over and over again sucking on the face of a child, calling out to a young girl in the audience, etc but yeah, Trump is the one with the character issues. Pfft.

to paraphrase the snake - It's the media, stupid!
nothing will happen unless/ until the global bankers / corporate oligarch owners of the media unleash their outlets to tell the world the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. The globalists will protect the political left until they are no longer useful.

You think so? Joe will sign a contract with Netfilx worth $60 million to produce videos--but will never produce anything.

Remember that the Pelosi led and leftist and socialist Democrat controlled House of Representatives quickly impeached Trump for a perfectly legitimate telephone call that he had with the President of Ukraine. That bogus Democrat impeachment effort still stands on Trump’s presidential record.
So far since taking control of the House of Representatives, the wimpy Republicans, who have been claiming that they have overwhelming evidence of Biden family corruption, that includes what amounts to a big criminal conspiracy under federal law, that should have been criminally prosecuted years ago if legitimate criminal investigations based upon probable cause had been conducted, have only talked a lot and claim to have written a lot of letters, but seem scared to death to institute impeachment proceeding against Biden.
Over a decade Biden, who was not at those times covered under the Presidential Records Act, absconded with a big number of US Government highly classified documents, some of which were placed in the garage of his Delaware private residence. Biden’s son Hunter through those years had uncontrolled access to the Biden family homes in Delaware, and who is to say that the Bidens did not unlawfully use classified information contained in those US Government documents to pursue the Bidens corrupt business activities in foreign countries such as China and Ukraine. Have the wimpy Republicans ever even tried to match up the classified information found in the Biden Private homes with the corrupt Biden business activities in foreign countries? Remember there is no way that Hunter could have any sort of US Government security clearance since he was kicked out of the Navy for using illicit drugs.

The Biden Crime Family continues to operate. The Bidens have the full weight of the illegitimate US government protecting them.
The US is irredeemably corrupt.

Even if the Biden con ends the Democrat Party cons of climate change, green energy, socialism, equity, critical race theory, etc., etc. ad nauseum will continue until their pernicious philosophy is wiped from the face of American life and deposited on the ash heap of history where it belongs.

Not sure if any Biden will see the inside of a jail cell, but I doubt if they are going to get any more bribe offers.

Was it bribery? Or was it extortion? Is there a difference? Is it over, or only poorly covered by media?

VDH, to suggest that biden the cheater's crimes are no worse than the fake allegations leveled against Trump are equivalent, is wrong-headed. You are asking the wrong question, VDH.

#17, I like the word Treason best of all. Not only do the Bidens collect money from these bad actors but what Joe does for them in return does actual damage to the United States and costs us billions of dollars for useless boondoggles like the Ukrainian War, Climate Change, development of bio-weapons, heavy funding of Chinese and Iranian programs that are dangerous to the US, and the total destruction of US respect across the world. If he lives, Biden has over another year to inflict a lot more damage.

And meanwhile the Russia collusion hoax just fades away. I think the biggest scandal ever. It was treason.

Just when you think it couldn't get any worse...something else surfaces....the Washington swamp is worse than WE had imagined...with each betrayal that surfaces...it proves just how corrupt Washington DC is....no wonder they are terrified of President Trump...he beats them every time they attack him...the mug shot was a gift to conservatives...it helps to give US courage....and biden's smirky response about President Trump being good looking made me cringe ...he puts his fingers where they don't belong and sniffs and showers with small children and now he finds President Trump good looking...what a pervert....biden is a classic dirty old man....

Corrupt Ukraine is central to the governing of our Nation. For only 5 million? they have been paid 180 Billion for their border dispute. The members of the Neocon Tribe are mostly from the Ukraine such as the villainous Victoria Nuland, Robert Kagan and Victoria Freeland in Canada. Lt Col Alexander Vindman set up our greatest President for impeachment by Democrat Marxists in combination with Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The other Neocons are almost all Litvaks from neighboring Lithuania such as Blinken.

For at least five years now, most of this evidence has been out there, but the MSM, bureaucracy, and the Democrats have done everything to protect the Bidens. The fact that this last last mid-term election, that was supposed to go big wave for Republicans produced only a ripple, proves they succeeded. I am afraid that the belief that the Bidens will be called to account is just wishful thinking. The fact the Republicans have a real talent for losing doesn’t help.

When The Sniffer, in his own words, bragged that he had threatened to cancel the deliverance of American foreign aid to Ukraine unless Shokin was dismissed, MOST AMERICANS BELIEVED HIM. When Hunter, apparently in an addicted stupor, left incriminating evidence on laptops to be repaired, MOST AMERICANS BELIEVED that the FBI intentionally placed those laptops into “limbo” purposely.. When The sniffer opened America’s borders to the world, MOST AMERICANS KNEW THAT THAT WAS NOT an ACCIDENT. SO, WHY were there not nationwide PROTESTS?
When the COVID “vaccine” was shown to NOT work, where were the protests
BY their Silence the American people were complicit in ALL of The Snifffer’s CONS and they even stayed silent as the 2020 election was stolen. NICE WORK.

We knew that a long time ago Victor. It is just that the proof is finally coming out into the light of day. Sometimes I hate knowing stuff and having to watch guys like VDH play catchup to the rest of us who actually pay attention all the time, not just once in awhile.

VDH, you forgot the numerous bank SAR’s [Suspicious Activity Reports, for suspicious CASH
withdrawals and/or deposits over $3500] which ALL US banks must report immediately.
Was it over 350?
Is there another group in our US Government more corrupt than Zero and his team?
Prayers for President Trump’s safety, wisdom and courage.
MAGA

Un-impeach President Trump and impeach Biden? I would say hell freezing over is more likely.
