Recent reports have reignited discussions surrounding President Biden's alleged involvement in a bribery scheme during his time as Vice President. These allegations center around claims that a Ukrainian businessman informed an FBI source about a $5 million payment made to Biden, referred to as "The Big Guy." This term, reportedly used years before it gained public attention, has raised questions about the nature of the alleged transaction.
The Federalist's reporting suggests that the payment wasn't a straightforward bribe but rather a coerced transaction, essentially a shakedown by Biden. The Ukrainian businessman allegedly concealed the payments through a complex network of shell corporations, making it difficult to trace the funds back to Biden. He reportedly estimated it would take a decade to unravel the financial trail.
Given that approximately ten years have passed since the alleged incident, questions arise about the potential implications of these accusations. Furthermore, the nature of the alleged bribe as a "retainer agreement" for Biden's future services raises concerns, particularly considering the substantial financial aid the United States has provided to Ukraine under his presidency. The lack of transparency surrounding the allocation of these funds adds another layer of complexity to the situation.
