Through the end of 2018, 17 percent of AntAC\u2019s funding was coming from Soros\u2019s group.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">AntAC is run by Daria Kaleniuk, an American-educated lawyer. White House logs show Kaleniuk visited on December 9, 2015, reportedly meeting with Eric Ciaramella, the CIA employee many suspect is the anonymous whistleblower that sparked Trump\u2019s first impeachment, the source of which was a faultless phone call with Ukraine\u2019s president.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">AntAC was responsible for creating the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU), a law enforcement group separate from the prosecutor general\u2019s office that was tasked with handling the biggest corruption cases. It has investigatory powers but cannot indict suspects. Only when it passes its findings to prosecutors does a subject of its inquiry become part of a criminal case. The agency was established in 2014 at the behest of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) after its predecessor, the National Anti-Corruption Committee, was deemed a failure. Western governments funded NABU, which also enjoyed the backing of the FBI. Like all the Orwellian names of groups Soros had a part in, NABU acts independently in name only.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">With the Obama DOJ\u2019s launch of the Kleptocracy Asset Recovery Initiative, aimed at battling large-scale public corruption in foreign states, the State Department, DOJ, and FBI began outsourcing some of their own work to AntAC.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">In February 2015, Viktor Shokin was appointed prosecutor general of Ukraine, and was soon scrutinized for helping the owner of the energy company Burisma. Shokin had helped owner Mykola Zlochevsky regain control of $23 million that was frozen by British authorities. Burisma was made famous by Hunter Biden\u2019s involvement in the company, and Zlochevsky was the one who struck the deal to appoint Hunter to the company\u2019s board of directors in 2014 at a reported salary of $83,333 per month.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-6\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gettr.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thenationalpulse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/GETTR_GetOnGettr_DM_V02_A5.jpg\" alt=\"Get On Gettr\" style=\"text-align: center;\" \/>  <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"p4\">AntAC\u2019s stance on Shokin was made clear; it tweeted on December 2015 that \u201cOne of the major goals of #AntAC for 2016 is to force #Shokin to resign.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Shokin attempted to begin a probe into Burisma that \u201cincluded interrogations and other crime-investigation procedures into all members of the executive board, including Hunter Biden.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">This never materialized because Joe Biden (then Vice President) threatened to withhold a $1 billion loan to Ukraine unless Skokin was removed as prosecutor general. Biden even bragged about it on video to the Council on Foreign Relations in 2018, stating that when he attended a meeting with Ukraine\u2019s president and prime minister, he said, \u201c\u2018I\u2019m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you\u2019re not getting the money.\u2019 Well, son of a bitch. He got fired.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Biden insisted the U.S. wanted Shokin removed over corruption concerns shared by the European Union. But in tapes released by Ukrainian lawmaker Andrii Derkach, Biden and Poroshenko reveal that the Ukrainian president admitted to doing Biden\u2019s bidding. The quid pro quo is proven.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p4\">\u201cDespite the fact that (Shokin) didn\u2019t have any corruption charges, we don\u2019t have any information about him doing something wrong, I especially asked him\u2026to resign.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p4\">In another recording from March 22, 2016, the two allegedly discussed who would be appointed prosecutor general of Ukraine, and then who would be their eventual replacement. Former prosecutor Yuriy Lutsenko was mentioned. The White House issued a press release confirming the pair talked again on this date.<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/thenationalpulse.com\/2022\/03\/03\/soros-mag-calls-ukraine-casualty-coverage-racist\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"u8c66635711997a1e1abb9a90848aef7e\"><\/p>\n<style scoped> .u8c66635711997a1e1abb9a90848aef7e { padding:0px; margin: 0; padding-top:1em!important; padding-bottom:1em!important; width:100%; display: block; font-weight:bold; background-color:#eaeaea; border:0!important; border-left:4px solid #34495E!important; box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -o-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -webkit-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); text-decoration:none; } .u8c66635711997a1e1abb9a90848aef7e:active, .u8c66635711997a1e1abb9a90848aef7e:hover { opacity: 1; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; text-decoration:none; } .u8c66635711997a1e1abb9a90848aef7e { transition: background-color 250ms; webkit-transition: background-color 250ms; opacity: 0.95; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; } .u8c66635711997a1e1abb9a90848aef7e .ctaText { font-weight:bold; color:#C0392B; text-decoration:none; font-size: 16px; } .u8c66635711997a1e1abb9a90848aef7e .postTitle { color:#000000; text-decoration: underline!important; font-size: 16px; } .u8c66635711997a1e1abb9a90848aef7e:hover .postTitle { text-decoration: underline!important; } <\/style>\n<div><span class=\"ctaText\">MUST READ:<\/span>\u00a0 <span class=\"postTitle\">Soros Mag: Focus On White Deaths in Ukraine Is Racist \u2018Dog Whistle.\u2019<\/span><\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/div>\n<p class=\"p4\">At the end of the call, Biden said, \u201cI\u2019m a man of my word. And now that the new prosecutor general is in place, we\u2019re ready to move forward to signing that new $1 billion loan guarantee.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Derkach would later be punished for allegedly exposing Biden\u2019s call with Poroshenko.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">After the audio was made public, Poroshenko\u2019s successor Volodymyr Zelensky called for an investigation into the recordings, and the U.S. Treasury Department sanctioned Derkach, describing the audio as \u201cunsupported information\u201d part of a campaign to \u201cdiscredit U.S. officials.\u201d They also accused Derkach, a member of Ukraine\u2019s parliament, of being a \u201cRussian agent.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">The sanctions came less than a year after Derkach met with Rudy Giuliani in Kiev, which reports at the time said was to discuss possible misuse of U.S. tax dollars by Ukraine\u2019s government.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p4\">\u201cI can\u2019t think of anything [Derkach] gave me that you could consider meddling in the election. Indicting [Steve] Bannon is a lot more meddling in the election than this. My best recollection is it was all information we had already. I know I kind of got bored during the deposition because I had already heard it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">\u2013 Rudy Giuliani<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p4\">\u201cI can\u2019t see how you can be accused of meddling in an election that is more than a year away,\u201d Giuliani continued. \u201cThe only new piece of information he gave\u2026 is the report that $5.3 billion in foreign aid [to Ukraine] is unaccounted for, $3 billion of which is American money and a big portion of that went to nongovernmental organizations controlled by George Soros,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">As the 2016 presidential race began to intensify, Ukraine\u2019s prosecutor general\u2019s office began an investigation into AntAC about the alleged misuse of $2.2 million of funds. An inquiry was sent to former U.S. ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt. George Kent, the second-in-command at the embassy, responded to Deputy Prosecutor General Yuriy Stolyarchuk with a two-page letter stating that the U.S. had \u201cno concerns about the use of our assistance funds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Kent pressured Stolyarchuk about AntAC in the letter, writing: \u201cThe investigation into the Anti-Corruption Action Center, based on the assistance they have received from us, is similarly misplaced.\u201d That was written on April 4, 2016\u2014less than a week after Shokin was removed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">A few months later, Yuriy Lutsenko was named prosecutor general and met with U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch. Lutsenko recalls being stunned when the ambassador gave him a list of people who shouldn\u2019t be prosecuted. The list included a founder of AntAC, and two members of Ukrainian Parliament who supported AntAC\u2019s anticorruption agenda (while benefitting from corruption themselves).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">As John Solomon puts it, the implied message to Lutsenko was clear: \u201cDon\u2019t target AntAC in the middle of an American presidential election in which Soros was backing Hillary Clinton to succeed another Soros favorite, Barack Obama.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">So what was motivating George Kent and Ambassador Yovanovitch to influence investigations in Ukraine of all places?<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/thenationalpulse.com\/2022\/02\/27\/foreign-policy-experts-now-back-regime-change\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"uf3a2db116adbe60d3c25d2928883b13f\"><\/p>\n<style scoped> .uf3a2db116adbe60d3c25d2928883b13f { padding:0px; margin: 0; padding-top:1em!important; padding-bottom:1em!important; width:100%; display: block; font-weight:bold; background-color:#eaeaea; border:0!important; border-left:4px solid #34495E!important; box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -o-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -webkit-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); text-decoration:none; } .uf3a2db116adbe60d3c25d2928883b13f:active, .uf3a2db116adbe60d3c25d2928883b13f:hover { opacity: 1; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; text-decoration:none; } .uf3a2db116adbe60d3c25d2928883b13f { transition: background-color 250ms; webkit-transition: background-color 250ms; opacity: 0.95; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; } .uf3a2db116adbe60d3c25d2928883b13f .ctaText { font-weight:bold; color:#C0392B; text-decoration:none; font-size: 16px; } .uf3a2db116adbe60d3c25d2928883b13f .postTitle { color:#000000; text-decoration: underline!important; font-size: 16px; } .uf3a2db116adbe60d3c25d2928883b13f:hover .postTitle { text-decoration: underline!important; } <\/style>\n<div><span class=\"ctaText\">MUST READ:<\/span>\u00a0 <span class=\"postTitle\">D.C.&#8217;s Foreign Policy &#8216;Experts&#8217; Now Demand &#8216;Regime Change&#8217; for Russia.<\/span><\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/div>\n<p class=\"p4\">The fact that Ukraine dealt with an organization created with the backing of the Obama administration, State Department, FBI, and George Soros. An investigation into AntAC could expose a whole chest of secrets\u2014the least of which being that they\u2019re not all concerned with corruption like they claim.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Memos uncovered by John Solomon from Soros\u2019s Open Society Foundations before the 2016 election make that obvious. One advocates U.S. involvement in Ukraine and offers \u201cbehind the scenes advice and support to Ukrainian partner AntAC\u2019s efforts to generate corruption litigation in Europe and the U.S. respecting state assets stolen by senior Ukrainian leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Another memo describes AntAC\u2019s strategy of developing friendships in key government agencies to leverage within the countries Soros operates in.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWe have broadly recognized the importance of developing supportive constituencies in order to make headway in tightening the global web of anti-corruption accountability. We first conceived of this in terms of fostering and helping to build a political environment favorable to high-level anti-corruption cases.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p4\">One such contact was Karen Greenaway, an FBI supervisor who was one of the lead agents in investigating Paul Manafort in Ukraine. She\u2019s appeared at Soros-sponsored events and conferences before and joined AntAC\u2019s supervisory board after retiring from the FBI. The FBI also separately confirmed her contacts with AntAC before she joined them, saying they were part of her \u201cinvestigative work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">One memo reportedly had a chart of Ukrainians that should be investigated, including people with ties to Paul Manafort.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">While not mentioned by name, one of those mentioned is likely Dmitro Firtash, a Ukrainian billionaire with competing energy interests in Europe as Soros. Firtash previously beat civil charges alleging he had engaged in money laundering with Manafort.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_34106\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-34106\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/163758332X\/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i5\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-34106\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pre-order Palumbo\u2019s new book today.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\">\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"p4\">All of this pressure on Ukrainian prosecutors was happening in the spring of 2016 as Manafort joined the Trump campaign.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">At this time, Fusion GPS was just starting to conduct opposition research on Trump, and the DNC\u2019s Ukraine expert Alexandra Chalupa was searching for dirt on Manafort. Meanwhile, Soros-funded AntAC was looking to probe Manafort\u2019s Ukraine associates, and the U.S. embassy was trying to stop any and all inquiries that risk derailing AntAC\u2019s work. With AntAC having the potential to \u201cuncover\u201d more dirt on the prime contender to Hillary Clinton, the motivations become obvious.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Prosecutor General Lutsenko himself suggested that the embassy applied pressure because it didn\u2019t want Americans to see who was being funded with our tax dollars. \u201cAt the time, Ms. Ambassador thought our interviews of the Ukrainian citizens, of the Ukrainian civil servants who were frequent visitors in the U.S. Embassy, could cast a shadow on that anti-corruption policy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Another Soros-funded group targeted Firtash in 2018.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">The Open Society-backed Campaign Legal Center filed a complaint with the FEC alleging that Ukrainian businessman Igor Fruman and Russian-born businessman Lev Parnas created a shell company called Global Energy Producers, LLC to anonymously donate $325k to a pro-Trump super PAC. The investigation that followed uncovered a $1 million payment to Parnas\u2019s wife from Firtash\u2019s lawyer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">The hunt for any information that could possibly damage President Trump or anyone connected to him was now on.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p6\"><b>For the rest, be sure to get the book <a href=\"https:\/\/posthillpress.com\/book\/man-behind-the-curtain-inside-the-secret-network-of-george-soros\">by clicking here<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/163758332X\/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i5\">It\u2019s also on Amazon, here.<\/a><\/b><\/h3>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\">\n<p><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-5\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/app.memberful.com\/join\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/IMG-20211111-WA0000.jpg\" alt=\"Fund Real News\" \/> <\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The following is an exclusive excerpt provided for National Pulse readers from Matt Palumbo\u2019s forthcoming book The Man Behind the Curtain: Inside the Secret Network of George Soros.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1373236","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1373236","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1373236"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1373236\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1373236"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1373236"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1373236"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
