But one pattern I’ve seen: If the enemies of freedom,prosperity, and civilization accuse their opposition of something, you can
assume they’re doing that very thing.

Last Thursday I watched the full two-hour chalkboard
presentation Glenn Beck did of the Ukraine Scandal. I’ve included the 51-minute
essential video below. But it was too much for me to digest in a sitting. Or
two. So I went through it again, piece-by-piece, taking notes, to see it in
writing. So I might as well share that. After that, I’ll share some additional
materials you can check out to educate yourself.
·
February 2014 Ukraine got a new
president.
·
March 2014 Obama administration offers
help to financially strapped Ukraine. Joe Biden placed to oversee the help.
·
Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, along with John Kerry’s
son, has set up an investment firm—for which the younger Biden has no
experience (although he does have a record, having been kicked out of the
military for drug problems, and is known for other scandals. See YouTube “Joe
Biden Scandal in Ukraine.”)
·
April 2014 Joe Biden, along with Devon
Archer, flies to Ukraine.
·
May 2014 Devon Archer (Biden’s friend) is
made a board member of Burisma, a gas company. Also, Hunter Biden is placed on
that board (without experience in oil and gas)—where he receives $50,000 a
month (or $600,000 for a year). The oligarch owner of Burisma is too corrupt to
get a visa to enter the US.
·
Also in May 2014 Obama offers a $1
Billion loan guarantee, plus $320 Million in general assistance, plus $118
Million for security equipment and training, plus $20 Million for law enforcement
reform, plus lots of advisors—for banking, politics, energy, media, and human
rights.
·
November 2014 Obama administration
insists that Ukraine establish a national anti-corruption bureau (NACB), with
the US as a partner. This puts the US in a position to get direct information
on anything this bureau uncovers. Advisors include Greg Craig, former Obama
White House Counsel; Tad Devine, Bernie Sanders’ chief strategist; and Tony Podesta,
brother to John Podesta (who was counsel to Obama in 2014-2015); Mark Penn,
Hillary Clinton’s chief strategist; Joel Benenson and John Anzalone, Obama
campaign pollsters.
·
Meanwhile, the corrupt oligarch owner of Burisma
gets $1.8 B of money going to Burisma to be placed in his private bank—and that
money disappears in a “banking error.” And at this point, the ban on his visa
to the US is lifted, meaning he is no longer considered corrupt.
·
June 2015 Trump announces his
presidential candidacy.
·
Late 2015, in the climate of corruption
tied to Obama operatives, the Democrat National Committee (DNC) hires Alexandra
Chalupa, daughter of Ukrainian, to do opposition research on Trump. (She had
been doing work for the DNC since 2004.)
·
January 2016 Chalupa approaches DNC
officials, suggests (no evidence; she just has a feeling) that Trump is
connected somehow to Russia. This is before Manafort or Papadopoulos were in
the picture for the Trump campaign, and before the Steel dossier. She focuses
on Paul Manafort, who had worked for the campaign of the ousted Ukrainian
president in 2014, but ignores the fact that Tad Devine and Tony Podesta had also
advised the ousted president (these two were later appointed as advisors to the
new president).
·
January 2016 Ukraine NACB meets with
White House about two issues: Joe Biden and his son related to Burisma, and
Paul Manafort. Only Manafort gets investigated. Those at the meeting later
report they were pressured not to investigate the Burisma $1.8 B loss of money
that had come from US taxpayers. (Contrast this with the current claim that
possibly Trump pressured Ukraine to look into this very thing.)
·
March 2016 Ukraine prosecutor Shokin had
been looking into Burisma; Joe Biden steps in and gets him fired. (He later brags
about this; there is video.) According to Shokin testimony in
another case, when he was fired, there had been no complaints about his work,
and Biden presented no incidents of his supposed corruption. He claims he was
fired because of Biden and assumes it was because of his investigation into
Burisma, because of Biden’s son’s connection with that company. But he was also
investigating an NGO supported by both the US government and a George Soros-owned
organization.
·
Also in March 2016, another “accounting
error” loses and additional $2.2 million in US taxpayer IMP loan to Ukraine.
·
Also in March 2016, Lutsenko takes over
as prosecutor in Ukraine.
·
Also in March 2016, Manafort briefly
works for the Trump campaign. And Chalupa, still a DNC operative, starts working
directly with the Ukrainian Embassy in the US, where she worked to (mis)direct
reporters researching Manafort and Russia, to damage the campaign of the
Republican candidate for president.
·
April 2016 Chalupa spoke at Open World
Society forum on Manafort, bringing in Michael Isikoff, whom she had connected with the Ukrainians.
In a May email she hinted about a Trump connection she was working on. Later
Isikoff wrote a story on the Steel dossier; he had received that dossier—which eventually
showed up with the FBI and was used to obtain a FISA warrant to investigate
Trump.
·
Also April 2016, the DNC hired FusionGPS
to investigate Trump. Bruce Ohr of the DOJ was married to a woman who worked
for FusionGPS, which was hired by the DNC. It is reasonable to say, then, that the
DNC was colluding with Ukraine to interfere with a US presidential election.
·
June 2016 The FBI officially combined
with the Ukraine NACB.
·
June 2016 A black ledger containing
financial records kept by the former Ukrainian president, used for
under-the-table payments. The black ledger was put together by head of NACB, Sytnyk
and Leshchenko. They illegally release these documents in August 2016. The same day that info comes out that
sends Manafort to jail, Tony Podesta (who had been doing the same work for the
former Ukrainian president) retires, closes doors on his lobbying business, and
no one investigates.
·
Also in June 2016 Obama appoints a new US
Ambassador, Marie Yovanovitch. She calls in Lutsenko and instructs him not to
investigate Burisma (and the missing $1.8 B) or the Soros-connected organization
(and the missing $2.2 M), or a number of unnamed Ukrainians. Lutsenko, the new
prosecutor for Ukraine, wanted to meet in the US with the DOJ. But the
ambassador refused visas to him and his team. Specifically, they had wanted to
discuss the following:

o DNC
and Ukrainian officials were trying to gather dirt on Trump.
o Misappropriation
of $7 B in US money.
o Ukrainian
officials who admitted to influencing the US election.
o Records
showing Burisma sending $3 M to Hunter Biden (apparently way beyond his $600,00
in pay for being on their board).
o Report
of Biden pressuring Ukraine to fire Shokin.
o US
officials had interfered in cases in Ukraine.
·
November 2016 Trump won the election, a
surprise to all these operatives.
·
July 12, 2017 Sarah Huckabee Sanders, at
that time the incoming White House Press Secretary, in an off-camera briefing,
tells media any actual collusion had happened between the DNC and the Ukrainian
government and had specifically targeted people in the Trump campaign to
influence the election. No follow-up questions from the media.
·
October 2017 Two Ukrainians (Sytnyk of
NACB and Leshchenko) are found guilty of interfering in US election. US media
doesn’t cover this. Evidence included prosecutor Lutsenko mentioning, in April,
an audio the Americans had of Sytnyk conversation at his home, discussing how
he would like to help Hillary, who was of the US and world hegemony, even
though Trump would be better for the American people. Rosenblat leaked the audio
recording, after the court heard it, in October 2017. It was front-page news in
Ukraine, but not covered here.
·
Throughout 2018 Mueller investigation
underway in US, and political upheaval is underway in Ukraine.
·
April 18, 2019 Mueller report shows there
was zero collusion between Trump campaign and Russia.
·
April 29, 2019 Ukraine elects a comedic
commentator as their new president, following an anti-corruption campaign.
·
May 2019 Trump fires US Ambassador to
Ukraine Yovanovitch.
·
Also May 2019 DOJ investigates the
investigation into Trump. (Results are due out in the near future. There is
some speculation that the impeachment talk is an effort to discredit the
president and his administration ahead of this report.)
·
July 2019 New Ukrainian president recalls
the Ukrainian ambassador to the US for corruption. Now no one is in the way of
what prosecutor Lutsenko wanted to tell the US.
·
July 2019 Trump has a phone conversation
with new Ukrainian president.
·
September 2019 a whistleblower with no
direct information on the phonecall reports that Trump was pressuring Ukraine
to dig up dirt on Joe Biden. The next day Trump provides the entire transcript
of the call showing there was no wrongdoing; that same day Nancy Pelosi
announces that ongoing committees will now be called an impeachment inquiry.
Earlier today, Glenn Beck interviewed investigative
journalist John Solomon, who has done much of the digging into this story. The
audio is available here (about 125 minutes in, during the 3rd hour
of the radio broadcast).
Here are a couple more explanations from Glenn Beck:
·
“What Whistleblowers Are Supposed to Do,”
procedures that were not followed in this case. Here on Facebook
·
This second one is more about the DNC operative:
“The Chalupa Behind the DNC’s Ukraine Scandal.” Here on Facebook
Here are several of the stories coming from John Solomon for
The Hill:
·
October 8, 2019 “John Solomon claims newdocument shows 'significant shift' in 'factual timeline' of Ukraine matters” Fox News Sean Hannity interview

Here are a few more articles on the issue:
·
May 13, 2019 “Why Isn’t the Senate Investigating Joe Biden’s Son Hunter Over China, Ukraine Dealings?” for American
Thinker by Monica Showalter
·
September 26, 2019 “When Hillary Clinton Colluded with Ukraine” for American Thinker by Daniel John Sobieski
·
October 10, 2019 “Ukraine President: We’re Ready To Investigate Ukraine’s Alleged Meddling In 2016 U.S.Election” for The Daily Wire by James Barrett
Most of what you’re hearing on mainstream media is about
Trump trying to discredit Biden and maybe hinting at something in a phonecall
to the president of Ukraine. They’re missing the largest part of the story. You
can find the facts, but it’s not that easy. The Glenn Beck Ukraine Scandal Explained video, below, was shadowbanned—meaning that some algorithm made it
difficult to find even though it was much searched for.
The people who tried to effect a particular outcome in 2016
will be trying (harder) to do that in 2020. At least arm yourself with some
truth.
