1. Start video at 1:25.

"We're not going to give you the billion dollars. [Former Ukraine President Petro Poroshenko and former Ukraine PM Arseniy Yatsenyuk] said, 'you have no authority. You're not the president. The president said ...'

2. "I said, 'call him.' I said, "I'm telling you you're not getting the billion dollars.' I said, 'you're not getting the billion and I going to be leaving here ...' I think it was about six hours."

3. "I looked and I said 'leaving in six hours. If [former Ukraine Prosecutor Viktor Shokin] is not fired, you're not getting the money.

"Well, son of a b*tch. He got fired."

-- Former Vice President Joseph Biden

4. Shokin was fired in 2016.

What was Shokin investigating? Possible criminal activity with Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian energy company that was paying Biden's son Hunter, who was on its board of directors.

5. Thus did former Vice President Biden play quid pro quo with American taxpayer monies to enrich a member of his family.

6. There is none of that in the Trump transcript with the current president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky. DJT did ask for an investigation of #Crowdstrike. What's Crowdstrike? More on that later.

7. I think that President Trump wanted his conversation with VZ to get out and manipulated the Democrats into demanding it.

ADDENDUM:

By the way, did you know that the USA and Ukraine have a treaty regarding mutual legal cooperation and assistance in criminal matters? It was signed in 1998.
