The Bidens 'Coerced' Burisma To Pay $10 Million In Bribes, Says Credible FBI Source

Burisma founder Mykola Zlochevsky wasn't far from the mark when he said it would take 10 years to unravel the complex payment path that led to Joe Biden.

The Bidens allegedly "coerced" a foreign national to pay them $10 million in bribes, according to individuals familiar with the investigation into the FBI's handling of the FD-1023 confidential human source report. What, if anything, agents did to investigate these explosive claims remains unknown, however, with sources telling The Federalist the FBI continues to stonewall.

On Monday, Sen. Chuck Grassley revealed a foreign national -- identified by individuals with knowledge of the matter as Burisma founder Mykola Zlochevsky -- allegedly possessed 17 recordings implicating the Bidens in a pay-to-play scandal. While 15 of the audio recordings consisted of phone calls between Zlochevsky and Hunter Biden, two were of calls the Ukrainian had with then-Vice President Joe Biden, according to the FD-1023.

The Federalist has now learned the FD-1023 reported the CHS saying the Bidens "coerced" Zlochevsky to pay the bribes. Sources familiar with the investigation also explained the context of Zlochevsky's statements, and that context further bolsters the CHS's [Confidential Human Source's] reporting.

...

Zlochevsky allegedly told the [Confidential Human Source] he was dismayed by Trump's victory, fearing an investigation would reveal his payments to the Biden family, which included a $5 million payment to Hunter Biden and a $5 million payment to Joe Biden. According to the CHS, the Burisma executive bemoaned the situation, claiming the Bidens had "coerced" him into paying the bribes.

Margot details the FBI's stonewalling regarding any investigation they did into the charges. Because they did exactly zero. They buried it and covered it up.

They had another election to rig.

Meanwhile, a poll say that more than half of Americans believe Joe Biden is guilty of soliciting bribes from foreign nationals.

So of course Regime Media continues covering up this story.

Kate Anderson at the Daily Caller:

Over half of American voters believe that the Biden family has accepted payments from foreign nationals in order to influence politics in Washington D.C., according to a new poll from the Convention of States Action and the Trafalgar Group.

President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, is currently the subject of a House Oversight Committee investigation which is looking into his conduct and business transactions while overseas during his time on the board of the Ukrainian company Burisma. According to a new poll released Wednesday, 53.3% of respondents believed that the Biden family had accepted bribes from foreign officials, while 34% indicated that they believed in the family's innocence.

"As a result of the ongoing Congressional investigation into Hunter Biden, do you believe the Biden family received payments from foreign nationals to influence policy in Washington, D.C.," the poll asked.

Republican voters overwhelmingly responded that they believed the Bidens accepted influence payments at 89.8%, with only 4.8% expressing their support for the president and his family, while the remaining 5.5% of GOP respondents were unsure, according to the poll. A large portion of Independent voters also indicated they believed that the Bidens had accepted payments in exchange for political favors, with 50% responding yes and 28.9% saying no.

Only Democrats expressed less-than-majority belief that Biden is a traitor. But even among Democrats, 11% agreed that POTATUS took bribes.
