Theo
is on his way to work at the Trump White House.
Today is a big day as the Senate had just struck down listening to more
witnesses and prolonging the sham impeachment trial with endless witnesses by
the Democrats in order to hide the fact that they impeached a president based
on no real evidence whatsoever. The
impeachment was based on what they believe the President was thinking and not
what he had actually done. Although this
was a big win, technically President Trump hadn’t been acquitted yet but it was
looking like he wasn’t going to be removed. It was a great day indeed but Theo
was about to get a blast from the past.
While
at work, Theo receives a text message from his friend Tatiana. Tatiana was a nurse in the D.C. area who
lived in a very nice apartment in D.C. proper with her husband and child. Theo had known her from high school and they
had gone on separate paths as Tatiana worked from California to Ukraine before
ending up in D.C. Tatiana’s parents were Ukrainian so it wasn’t too odd for her
to take a job there as she was fluent in the language. Contrary to what most people think of
Ukraine, Western Ukraine, where Tatiana’s family is from, speaks Ukrainian and
despise Russians. It is only Kiev and
East that considers themselves Russian and speak Russian. While working for Ukrainian-first
presidential campaigns, Tatiana quickly realized the corruption in Ukraine and
found herself unable to discern which side she was on. She ended up accepting money from Hillary
Clinton to dig dirt on Paul Manafort and other political opponents that
represented the Russian-friendly presidents.
What was done with this information would make it back to the states and
caused her to leave Ukraine but not after given enough hush money to ensure
that neither she nor her kid would ever have to worry about money. With money no longer being an issue, she was
able to do what she enjoyed; be a nurse.
The money, however, weighed on her because of what she had to see and
find out in order to be worth so much for her silence. She knew Theo to be honorable so every now
and then she unloaded it on him even though he worked in the Trump White
House. Theo’s take was always that she
couldn’t possibly know anything that President Trump didn’t already know so, to
him, there was no point to mention it to anyone in the White House.
Theo
took the invitation and they met up for dinner.
He knew that she had something important to say just by the expression
on her face. He gave her a hug and said,
“I’ve been wanting to talk to you considering all this crap going on involves
your country.”
She
gave him a dirty look, “Yea, well that’s why I’m here. You can’t tell anyone though.”
“Yea,
I know”
“I’m
sorry to put you in this situation because I know who your employer is but you
really need to stay tight lipped on this.”
“Tatiana,
we go through this dance every time. I
have yet to say anything yet the information always comes out. It’s been a long time since you were in
Ukraine. They have a new president. The stuff you know has come out through no
fault of yours and is probably known by the president and all his closest
advisors. Trust me, you’re fine.”
“I
know but you know what happens when you cross the Clintons”
“Yes,
I do. If you’re high profile, they bring
the entire DOJ on you to investigate you in Stalin-like interrogations and make
up crimes to charge you with and deny you all rights you have as an American
during the trial. If you’re not high
profile, she just kills you and has people conclude it’s an accident.”
“I’m
glad you understand that my life depends on your silence.”
“Yes,
which is why I’ve never told anyone before.”
“What
do you know about Joe Biden?”
“Lifelong
politician. Speaks very highly of
Segregationists that he used to work with; likes smelling kid’s hair and having
them crawl on his legs and play with his leg hair, kind of creepy, forgets what
state he’s in half the time….”
“In
2014”
“Vice
President of the United States”
“And
point man to Ukraine”
“Yea,
that too.”
“Well,
do you know how much he was worth in 2014?”
“No”
“He
went around claiming to be poor because he doesn’t own a stock or bond and only
has mildly expensive suits. He painted
himself as the everyday man because he couldn’t afford to wear a different suit
to every event.”
“Okay”
“Forbes
even ran a story about it.”
“Fine,
but that’s not necessarily bad.”
“Not
yet but his claiming how poor he was caught the attention of a Ukrainian
billionaire named Mykola Zlochevsky”
“Sounds
Polish but yea he’s the owner of Burisma.”
“Trust
me, he’s Ukrainian. Anyway, that Forbes
piece ran in 2014. Also in 2014, Burisma
hires Hunter Biden to their board with no energy experience. They pay him $83,000 a month.”
“Right,
this is well documented.”
“You
don’t think it’s odd that Ukraine’s largest energy company hires someone on the
board with no energy experience whatsoever?”
“Of
course I do and even Hunter admitted he wouldn’t have gotten the job if his
last name wasn’t ‘Biden.’”
“Yes,
you got all that but do you know how Zlochevsky made Burisma into the success
that it is?”
“Killed
some people?”
“Not
quite…well maybe….but no, not what I was going to say.”
“What
were you going to say?”
“He
was the ecology minister in Ukraine and he funneled money to Burisma for rights
and permits to drill.”
“Ahh,
so when you’re in charge of the permits, you can crush your competition and
allow your company to thrive.”
“And
use foreign money to go to your friends and allies and not to your
competition.”
“Yes,
that too.”
“Problem
is you have to hide all that money that you’re stealing from the government and
foreign aid.”
“Yes,
that would be good.”
“That’s
where Hunter Biden comes in. They
laundered money through various international banks before going to Hunter
Biden to make it look like it’s just his firm doing international business but
really it’s from Burisma.”
“Why
hide it if he was part of the government?”
“Zlochevsky
was the minister under Yanukovych then the Ukrainian revolution happened and
Yatsenyuk became interim President before Porochenko became President.”
“Zlochevky
was unsure where his status was with Yatsenyuk.”
“Correct,
because he was with the pro-Russia Yanukovych and Yatsenyuk was pro-Ukraine”
“Yatsenyuk
was your guy then.”
Tatiana
contemplated this and shook her head side to side as she was weighing how to
respond, “For the most part yes but it got really fucking complicated.”
“I
bet. The point is that Burisma felt the
need to hide the money they were giving to Hunter Biden, which is suspicious.”
“Also,
why steal all this money if you’re just going to give it to Hunter Biden? What do you get in return?”
“Influence
over the point man in Ukraine for the United States and the US Vice President
who can curry favor for you and provide cover.”
“Which
is exactly what he did by getting a prosecutor general fired. That prosecutor general was Victor
Shokin. Biden threatened to withhold a
billion dollars in US aid unless Shokin was fired so they did.”
“Right,
and the new prosecutor general, Lutsenko, was given a Do Not Prosecute list by
George Kent and Marie Yovanovich, our Sarge-D’affair and ambassador.”
“Okay
good, so you know all that. Now, let’s
get to 2016. Remember, Hillary Clinton
was deeply involved in Ukraine and her biggest donor, Victor Pinchuk, is
Ukrainian.”
“Yes,
and you had your run ins with her and is the current reason you’re scared
shitless every time you talk about the country of your ancestry.”
“Right,
so Biden wanted to run for president in 2016.”
“I
don’t remember him in the primary. I
thought it was just Bernie and Hillary.
I think there was a third but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t Biden.”
“Do
you want to know why?”
“I
didn’t really think about it but sure.”
“Hillary
threatened Joe Biden that if he ran, she would expose Hunter Biden and his
corruption. It was Hillary’s turn and
she would step over anyone to make sure she became president so Biden had to wait.”
“Threatening
your enemy’s kid to get what you want.
Yea, that sounds like Hillary and her mob-Saul Alinsky tactics.”
“It
also explains why Obama didn’t endorse him in 2016 and still hasn’t now.”
“Yea,
because Hillary owns the Democrat party and Obama kisses the ring.”
“Biden’s
past may be catching up with him now though.”
“How’s
that?”
“Victor
Shokin just filed a federal complaint against Joe Biden and with Ukrainian
authorities about how Biden forced him out because he was investigating Burisma
and Hunter Biden.”
“Good. I guess he had to wait for a president like
Zelensky that was smart and was honest enough to take on Burisma and the
Democrat machine in Ukraine.”
“Anyway,
you saw the video where Biden is bragging about holding up the billion dollars
unless Shokin is fired.”
“Yes,
for investigating Burisma and, by extension, his son.”
“Then
what?”
“Ah,
Thomas Sowell but I assume Ukraine got the money.”
“They
did but where did it go?”
Theo
gave her a quizzical look, “You know, I don’t know. I assumed it was for defensive weapons
against the Russians.”
“That
is what they want you to assume but that’s not where it went.”
“So
where did it go?”
“Various
NGO’s that George Soros just happens to own.”
“I’ve
heard about this. Soros was competing
with Dmitry Firtash and used America to pressure Ukraine to skew the odds in
Soros’ favor. That’s why Soros gives so much money to Democrats. They help him with his international
businesses to crush the competition with sanctions and investigations by giving
his companies a pass.”
“Yes,
so that’s where the billion dollars go.
It wasn’t to put in someone who was solid and not corrupt like Biden
claimed when he was bragging, it was so he could be the corrupted person and
anyone opposing his corruption was to be destroyed.”
“I’m
with you. Do you want to go to a bar and
take this fight to college kids?”
“You’re
still doing that shit?”
“Oh,
it’s so much fun.”
“Fine,
where do you want to go?”
“Vanderbilt.”
Tatiana
rolls her eyes, “Fine,”
They
pay their check and go to a bar near Vanderbilt University. As they sit down, Theo calls out, “So do you
know that John Bolton got $115,000 to speak in Ukraine?”
Tatiana
responds in a normal volume voice, “Yea, by Victor Pinchuk.”
“So
obviously John Bolton was paid by the corrupt Ukrainians to undermine
Trump. That’s why I’m glad witnesses
weren’t called because Bolton is bought and paid for by the Ukrainians.”
Tatiana
figured out that he was baiting college kids.
Almost on cue, a redheaded girl walks up to them and announces, “Umm, a
lot of people get paid that much to give speeches when you’re that
established.”
“A
former ambassador? John Bolton isn’t too
big a name.”
“The
Ukrainian president likes Trump so if anything they paid Bolton to be quiet.”
“Oh
no, Victor Pinchuk is Hillary Clinton’s largest donor.”
Tatiana
interrupted, “Technically the Clinton Foundation’s largest donor but yes, he’s
right.”
Redhead
responds, “Who cares? What does this have
anything to do with anything? Hillary
isn’t running.”
Tatiana
glares at Theo for getting her into this and then takes a deep breath. If she was being honest, she enjoyed
schooling these college kids just as much as Theo but felt that it wasn’t socially
acceptable. She calmly offered, “Joe
Biden and Victor Pinchuk are both on the Alliance of Democracies board.”
“I
don’t know what that is.”
“It
is a transatlantic election integrity monitoring company.”
“Well,
that’s good. I wish we had that when Trump
won because he stole that election.”
Theo
shot back, “You’re just a sore loser.
Whenever Democrats lose, they always want to change the rules. Face it, you lost and given that Ukraine had
a revolution in 2014, they probably aren’t the best monitors of international
elections.”
“Are
the paid?” the redhead asked
Tatiana
answered, “Yes, but it is technically an NGO.”
“NGO’s
aren’t paid.”
“Yes
they are. They are used as fronts to
launder money.”
“That’s
a conspiracy theory”
“Not
in Ukraine.”
“Why
does everything have to be about Ukraine nowadays?”
“Pinchuk
is a Ukrainian oligarch. That’s who
we’re talking about.”
The
redhead starts typing frantically in her phone.
She then looks up and shows Tatiana her phone, “Look, Pinchuk gave Trump
$150,000 so what do you think now?”
Tatiana
rolled her eyes, “He gave the Clinton foundation $25 Million.”
Theo
inquired, “You really think a billionaire like Trump can be bought for
$150,000?”
The
redhead types some more on her phone and fires back, “Hillary denies even
knowing him.”
It
was now Theo’s turn to type into his phone as he notices Tatiana tensing up
since the conversation has turned to Hillary Clinton. Theo shows the redhead an invitation and an
e-mail of Clinton inviting Pinchuk to her house for a party while she was
Secretary of State, “You really think someone that Clinton doesn’t know gave
her 25 Million dollars and the Clinton didn’t even have the decency to meet
him?”
The
redhead sounded less sure of herself, “Well, then why would she say she didn’t
know him?”
“Because
he’s corrupt and so is she and she wants to distance herself from all the
corrupt people and money she has been associated with to get to where she is.”
“I
don’t believe that.”
“What
do you believe? That a charity doesn’t
thank their donors that give them millions?
They just take their money and not bother to meet them or associate with
them in any way?”
“Let’s
go back to that company that Biden has with Pinchuk.”
Tatiana
utters, “The Transatlantic commission.”
“Right,
it’s an international company right?”
“They
hold their conferences in Ukraine engaging journalists and other NGO’s. Their mission is to monitor and use Social
media.”
“I
think that’s noble. Social media is very
influential in elections so they should monitor it.”
Theo
declares, “Judicial Watch has found that the state department used Soros’ NGO’s
in Ukraine to monitor people’s social media campaigns. The people the NGO’s monitor are all people
that know that President Trump colluding with the Russians is a hoax.”
“Oh,
so you’re a conspiracist.”
“Why
would you have to monitor conspiracy theorists if there was no truth to what
they were claiming?”
“Lies
can cause damage.”
“I
know, look at the lie that Christopher Steele told about the president
colluding with the Russians and the lie that Schiff told about the quid pro quo
with the president and Ukrainian President Zelensky. We might as well throw in the Carter Page
FISA and the investigations into Mike Flynn and Carter Page.”
The
redhead shook her head, “Wow, I feel sorry for you. You’re so brainwashed. I don’t know how anyone falls for Trump’s
lies.”
“What
did he lie about?”
“That
more people went to his inauguration than any other inauguration.”
“How
did that negatively affect the country?
Tell me a lie that is actually detrimental to foreign or domestic policy
or has dire implications.”
“I
already gave you one.”
“Not
that matched the criteria”
“You
change the criteria after I answered.”
“True,
but can you answer?”
“I
don’t have to.”
“True,
but I’m not sure what the problem is.”
The
redhead scoffs and storms off. A dark
haired boy approaches them and articulates to Theo, “So you’re a Trump
supporter?”
“Yes,
I am”
“You
know he’s going to lose?”
“I
don’t know that. He has a unique ability
to make his little nicknames stick with people.”
“He
can’t do that to a woman. He’ll come off
as a bully and too chauvinistic.”
“What
are you talking about? He called Hillary
‘crooked Hillary’ that stuck.”
“Well,
Hillary is strong so she doesn’t count.”
“So,
you want a weak woman to run against President Trump?”
“Well
he calls Bernie a communist.”
“He
is. In fact, Bernie brags about it. President Trump gave him credit for being
honest about it.”
“Yea,
I guess he did complement him.”
“You
do realize that he just said that because it gives people the impression that
the president is fair in his critique so by saying that Bernie is honest, it
gives credibility to his first comment that he’s a communist not just a
socialist?”
“That’s
a huge stretch.”
“No,
it’s not. It’s how it works. That’s the beauty; people don’t even realize
they’re falling for it.”
“I
don’t support him; you do so you’re the one that’s brainwashed.”
“Wrong.”
“I
just don’t like his rhetoric. He should
be presidential.”
“No,
not in this day in age. Given the deep
state and the vile, sadistic, libelous, scandalous, treacherous Democrats in
power, we need a fighter that talks tough and is brash and blunt.”
“Come
on though; calling Elizabeth Warren a fairy Tale.”
“The
woman never tells the truth. She’s lied
about pretty much every single thing she said. I can’t even think of one thing
she said that was true. I wonder if I’ve
heard her say that her name is ‘Elizabeth Warren.’ If she did say that, then I wonder if it is
her name.”
“Oh
come on!”
“I’m
serious, she really is like a fairy Tale.
Nothing about it is true.”
“What
about calling Bloomberg ‘little?’ It’s
really shitty making fun of short people.
That’s just mean.”
“It
worked on Marco Rubio.”
“Yea,
well that’s different. Bloomberg is a billionaire. In fact, he has more money than Trump.”
“Yes,
he does but he is short.”
“I
just don’t think it’s right.”
“You
do realize you’re proving my point right?”
“How
do you figure that?”
“You
remembered all his nicknames and there is no Democrat candidate yet. Imagine what he’ll do when he only has one
person to focus on.”
The
dark haired boy thinks about this and takes a deep breath. “I don’t know, I just don’t like it.”
“That
is your opinion but it does work and it does stick.”
“Yea,
I guess so. I just wish Hillary would
just go away. I mean, she’s viciously
attacking Bernie Sanders. She had her
chance, she lost. Why is she sabotaging
candidates now?”
“There
are a few reasons. First, Bernie knows
she sabotaged him in 2016 by bribing the DNC to undermine him and make sure she
won the nomination. Since Bernie knows
this, and the press will be on his side since they always favor Democrats, a
president Sanders may be better able to lock her up than President Trump.”
“I
don’t think he’s that vindictive.”
“Oh,
I do. There are other reasons too.”
“Like
what?”
“Hillary
is going to force Bloomberg or Biden to make her Vice President.”
Both
Tatiana and the dark haired boy tensed in surprise as they mulled this
over. The dark haired guy broke the
silence, “That would explain the movie about her and how she attacks
Bernie. She wants to be Vice President.”
Tatiana
chimed in, “That will give her a first ever.
She’ll be the first ever female Vice President and nobody can take that
from her. Shit, it might work. The last four years has proven that she can
influence and control shit even if she doesn’t have the office. She will own the president, especially if
it’s Biden, and she, in effect, will be president. Damn, I never thought of that.”
Theo
added, “It also makes Republicans hesitate about getting revenge by impeaching
the next Democrat president. They don’t
want Hillary to be president.”
The
dark haired boy pronounced, “It’s genius.”
Theo
just shrugged his shoulders. The
dark-haired boy walked off seemingly contemplating everything he just
learned. Tatiana turned to Theo, “Can we
go now? Are you done? Have you had your fill?”
“Yup,
I got my fix. We can go.”
Tatiana
and Theo were going opposite directions so they hugged good bye with the cheeks
against each other and kissed the air.
Theo then got on the train and headed back to his home in Rockville,
Maryland. As he was about to go to bed,
he realized he didn’t know what happened in the Iowa Caucus. He looked it up and found that there was a
problem and Iowa didn’t know who won.
Theo smiled and knew that Hillary was written all over this. Bernie Sanders won and Clinton couldn’t stand
for that so she banned them from revealing who the winner was. He quickly fell asleep as he would need
energy for the fight that was about to ensue.
Election years were hectic, drama-filled and downright exhausting. It is all worth it if your candidate wins
though.
