It’s not so much about the announcement. The move is about the stateside dis-info headline shares that are going to be pushed about it

And the rest of the civilized world wanted him out as well. Shokin is/was dirty. He’d stopped investigating Burisma and is a Kremlin toady.

Ukraine should open a investigation into Shokin in response.

Corrupt victimizer claims he is the victim. Sound familiar?

Flinging monkey poo in all directions now, hoping that something will stick. Just underscored IMPOTUS’s impotence and rage…

Question is: which side will Zelensky land on here? Will he guess Aged Orange wins another four years or does he smell a whiff of IMPOTUS defeat in the air?

Trump has done it. Lying is the norm. You can say anything you want. Who can say which side is lying. They both say the exact same thing about the other. They both accuse each other of projecting. Now we just lie whenever we want. The President has lied over 160000 times. There are now officially 2 universes on earth. It’s international now. Thanks Rudy…

What I thought. Still no evidence. Unless perpetual whining is to be considered as such.

I’m sure Zelensky wants no part in the drama. I can’t say I blame him. He’s got his hands full with his own country.

Raising the profile of the scumbag on the team. First bad move by Putin. Signs of desperation.

I guess it’s expecting too much to want a Ukranian prosecutor to know the difference between blackmail and run-of-the-mill extortion.

Unless Biden had incriminating photos of Shokin (or some other similarly damaging personal information that he was threatening to release), this isn’t “blackmail”.

Ok has FAUX or OANN reporter, er, distorted that BS?

This could be an interesting card. Sure - it’s total bullshit, designed to give some cover to tRump. BUT - I can see certain R talking heads - harping on this - calling on Biden to testify. Can this be used by both sides to justify calling witnesses?

Or is it just another fart in the wind?
