Reporter Questions Joe Biden About FBI Bribery Scheme Document, Watch His Startling Answer


Steven Nelson, a D.C. reporter for the New York Post, asked Joe Biden Thursday about the FBI document alleging he participated in a $5 million bribery scheme with a foreign national.

“Bribery allegation. Congresswoman Nancy Mace says there’s damning evidence in the FBI file that you sold out the country. Do you have a response to the congressional Republicans?” Nelson asked.

Biden replied: “Where’s the money?”

That’s the question Biden should be answering himself.

“Where’s the money. I’m joking. It’s a bunch of malarkey,” Biden commented.

“I call the balls and strikes and call it right down the middle. But it’s unconscionable the FBI won’t tell us what they’ve done to investigate the President’s involvement in a multi-million dollar bribery scheme. It’s undeniable this document is legitimate,” Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) said.

“POTUS we don’t find selling out your country funny. Prove us wrong by releasing your and your family’s unredacted bank records. The FBI can’t protect you forever,” she added.

“And since you asked, the money is in your family’s shell companies. Release these bank records too,” Mace commented.

“This source that came forward is a paid informant by the FBI,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) said Thursday.

Greene suggested the payments, $5 million to one Biden and $5 million to another Biden, were a bribe to end the investigation into Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian natural gas company Hunter Biden served on the board.

The New York Post reports:

Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) gave reporters an accounting of the file after reading it at the Capitol, saying Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky allegedly told the FBI source “that he paid $5 million to one Biden and he paid $5 million to another Biden. And it was all a bribery to get [former Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor] Shokin fired.”

Greene, whose account was confirmed by a third Republican member of Congress who read the document Thursday, said the file also described how in 2015 and 2016, Burisma “was looking to buy a US-based oil and gas company, and this came from being advised by [first son] Hunter Biden and his partners.”

“Around the time of this meeting was when Joe Biden as vice president had said that the prosecutor Shokin was corrupt. They hired Hunter on the board to make the problems go away,” she said. “Hunter advised that they could raise more money if they bought a US company.”

Hunter Biden earned up to $1 million per year from 2014 to 2019 to serve on the board of Burisma, despite having no relevant industry experience.

Then-VP Joe Biden met with a Burisma executive at a DC dinner in April 2015 — with the meal forming the basis of The Post’s explosive first report on Hunter’s abandoned laptop.
