    So what was the crime?

    He said that someone who was not Joe Biden was asked what Biden was
    "bringing for energy assistant to Ukraine" and answered "four things",
    and this stenographer claims without substantiation that "two of them
    directly benefited Burisma"

    And then this stenographer claims it was a "kickback scheme" without any substantiation either.

    Then he claims he told the FBI (and Weiss) and "they haven't acted on it"...

    ...but he has no idea what the FBI or Weiss have done.

    Not exactly smoking gun, is it, Sunshine?

    Let me help you:

    'April 21, 2014

    Background Press Briefing on Vice President Biden's Trip to Ukraine

    Aboard Air Force Two En Route Kyiv, Ukraine

    SENIOR ADMINISTRATION OFFICIAL: We have a wide range of technical
    expertise and then forms of technical assistance in four areas. The
    first is how to address this immediate reverse flow issue, and we
    already have a team on the ground to deal with that. The second is
    technical assistance to help them be able to boost production in their conventional gas fields, where presently they aren’t getting the maximum
    of what they could be. Third, technical assistance relating to a
    regulatory framework, and also the technology that would be required to
    extract unconventional gas resources; and Ukraine has meaningful
    reserves of unconventional gas according to the latest estimates. And
    then finally various forms of technical assistance relating to energy efficiency, where experts have shown that the Ukraine could
    substantially lessen its energy dependence and deny any country the
    capacity to use energy as a political weapon through a combination of
    all those things, but in no small part through greater energy efficiency
    and use of its existing energy.'

    <https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2014/04/21/background-press-briefing-vice-president-bidens-trip-ukraine>

    That appears to be the text of the official he was talking about.

    Now: tell me from that...

    ...which bits "directly benefit" Burisma?

    :-)
