House Republicans are probing whether the Department of Justice retaliated against one of their impeachment witnesses — a former business associate of Hunter Biden who revealed a 2014 conversation then-Vice President Biden had with his son and the former mayor of Moscow. Jason Galanis, who is currently serving a 14-year federal prison sentence for defrauding an American Indian tribe, disclosed a May 4, 2014, speaker phone conversation between Hunter and Joe Biden and Russian oligarch Yelena Baturina and her husband, the ex-Moscow Mayor Yuri Luzhkov. Galanis was interviewed last month from his prison cell in Montgomery, Ala., and during his...

The Supreme Court let stand former Hunter Biden business associate Devon Archer’s criminal conviction Monday, rejecting for a second time Archer’s bid to avoid prison. In 2018, a federal jury convicted Archer and several others on charges of defrauding a Native American tribe by fraudulently issuing and selling more than $60 million of tribal bonds. In a brief order without explanation, as is typical, the Supreme Court declined to take up Archer’s appeal. The president’s son is not implicated in the case, but Archer has become a key figure in House Republicans’ investigation into Biden’s business dealings. Archer last summer...

Biden has an easy way to completely derail the GOP impeachment inquiry if, as he insists, there’s really absolutely nothing there: Just hand over your bank records, sir, and those of Hunter and his shell companies. Seeing those records is the central reason Speaker Kevin McCarthy upgraded House investigations to such an inquiry, now that they’ve established such hard facts as: As veep, Joe met with Hunter’s “biz” associates at least 16 times, amid more than 80 White House visits. That includes Joe dining with Burisma exec Vadym Pozharsky at DC’s posh Cafe Milano. Hunter’s then-partner Devon Archer says the...

MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell said Friday on her show “Andrea Mitchell Reports” that she believed the testimony of Hunter Biden’s former business associate Devon Archer to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability “exonerated” President Joe Biden. Mitchell said, “It was originally reported by the Republican readout that Archer had suggested something that insinuated improper behavior by the president and his son, and then when Archer came out and the transcript came out, it was very clear that he had exonerated the president.

“The Bidens are the best at doing exactly what Chairman wants.” That WhatsApp message to a Chinese business associate was the perfect epitaph for the entire Biden corruption scandal. Part of the brilliance of the Biden influence peddling operation was to invest the media in the denial of any scandal. That is no more evident than the much discussed 2015 dinner of President Joe Biden with his son’s foreign associates. The alleged dinner demolished Joe Biden’s long denials of any knowledge of his son’s dealings. Accordingly, the Biden campaign denied he ever attended and the media happily dismissed the account....

First son Hunter Biden’s former business partner Devon Archer told lawmakers this week that Ukrainian natural gas firm Burisma Holdings brought the political scion onto its board so that “people would be intimidated to mess with them … legally.” ... Archer also revealed that then-Vice President Joe Biden met twice with his son’s shady post-Soviet business partners at DC’s Café Milano, not once as previously reported. These and other revelations blow new holes in Biden’s claim that he never discussed business with his now-53-year-old son — as House Republicans move closer to launching an impeachment inquiry. The transcript also confirms...

The transcript of Hunter Biden’s business associate Devon Archer’s congressional testimony was released Thursday. Archer testified about Hunter’s business dealings and President Joe Biden’s alleged involvement. Archer is a close friend of Hunter and sat on the board of Ukrainian energy firm Burisma alongside Hunter. The transcript alleges that Hunter had a “brand” as part of the Biden family, specifically due to President Joe Biden. Archer testified that while Biden had no involvement with Burisma to his knowledge, “Burisma would have gone out of business if it didn’t have the brand attached to it.”

WASHINGTON — First son Hunter Biden’s former business partner Devon Archer told lawmakers this week that Ukrainian natural gas firm Burisma Holdings brought the political scion onto its board so that “people would be intimidated to mess with them … legally.” According to a transcript of a four-hour deposition released Thursday by the House Oversight Committee, Archer also revealed that then-Vice President Joe Biden met twice with his son’s shady post-Soviet business partners at DC’s Café Milano, not once as previously reported. These and other revelations blow new holes in President Biden’s claim that he never discussed business with his...

The Biden brand is an “abuse of soft power,” Devon Archer told Tucker Carlson during an interview released Wednesday on Twitter. Archer was Hunter Biden’s best friend in business. Together they sat on Burisma Holding’s board and co-founded BHR Partners, a Chinese state-backed investment fund. “Obviously, the brand of Biden, you know, adds a lot of power when your dad’s vice president,” Archer told Carlson.

Yesterday Devon Archer confirmed all suspicions about the Bidens. Hunter did put Joe on the phone two dozen times with foreign entities. Joe Biden was "the brand." Joe Biden the "Brand" saved the corrupt Burisma. "Joe the Brand" prostituted his position as VP for cash. But it was Dan Goldman who provided the comedy entertainment for the day. Dan Goldman is the classic rich liberal white boy born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Miranda Devine: Let me introduce you to Dan Goldman, recently hatched representative of New York’s 10th Congressional District, smarmy heir to the Levi Strauss fortune,...

WASHINGTON – At least he didn’t fall off this time. President Biden was back on his bike Monday, pedaling around Rehoboth Beach, Del. as his troubled son’s former business partner, Devon Archer, answered questions on Capitol Hill. The 80-year-old president and first lady Jill Biden zipped by reporters shortly after 11 a.m., with Joe Biden ignoring a shouted question about Chinese malware. A small crowd watched from behind a rope line and cheered on the first couple, who wore matching long black pants, black t-shirts and bike helmets. Three official vehicles led the bike convoy, which also included Secret Service...

After Hunter Biden’s plea deal dramatically fell apart in court this week, the Department of Justice made clear it is still looking into potential foreign lobbying and money laundering charges against him. And now after a painstaking investigation using documents from Hunter's abandoned laptop, interviews with sources and subpoenaed records obtained by DailyMail.com, we can reveal exactly what evidence may be used against the First Son. The information lays out a laundry list of potential foreign influence violations that span China, Russia, Ukraine, Romania, Kazakhstan, Mexico and other Latin American countries.

The Justice Department on Sunday told a New York judge they do not wish to see Hunter Biden's former business associate imprisoned before he testifies about their schemes. Devon Archer is due to testify to Congress, behind closed doors, on Monday. It was suggested that the Justice Department wanted him arrested first, but on Sunday they wrote a letter clarifying that he must be free to testify before any such steps are taken. The Department of Justice sent an 'odd' letter to a judge Saturday urging an expedited sentencing for Archer - for an unrelated fraud conviction - in what...

<p>Hunter Biden told his longtime friend and business partner, Devon Archer, that they would get the "last laugh" after Archer said a judge threw out his conviction, according to 2018 text messages reviewed by Fox News Digital.</p><p>Archer, who is set to appear before the House Oversight Committee on Monday and is reportedly preparing to tell lawmakers about President Biden's interactions with dozens of Hunter's business associates while he was vice president, informed Hunter Biden in a November 2018 text message that the "judge threw out my conviction today."</p>

The DOJ, Binden Cabal, Obama, and the rest of Deep State don't even care how this looks anymore. This desperate and brazen attempt to silence Archer is now the norm for this administration. They know they have 99.9% of MSM will ignore what they're doing.

The Justice Department is pushing for Devon Archer to report to prison - just days ahead of the former Hunter Biden business partner’s hotly anticipated congressional testimony, according to new court documents. Manhattan federal prosecutors on Saturday filed a letter requesting a judge set a date for Archer to start his one-year sentence in a fraud case unrelated to the first son’s various scandals. The request came after the Second Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed Archer’s 2018 conviction last Tuesday on two felony charges for his role in a conspiracy to defraud a Native American tribe. Archer - who is...

It’s not at all surprising that a powerful, corrupt political family may want to threaten someone who is about to “sing” to authorities under oath. According to a source close to Hunter Biden, who is expected to provide Congress with explosive information against the Biden family, the former best buddy, and partner in business is now “in hiding” after getting “threats.” Devon Archer, 49, admitted to pals that he had to leave both his Long Island and Brooklyn homes but that he still intended to go before the House Oversight Committee on Monday. .....

Hunter Biden's former best friend and business partner who is set to give Congress bombshell evidence against the Biden family is now 'in hiding' after receiving 'threats', a source close to him told DailyMail.com. Devon Archer, 49, has been forced to flee both his Long Island and Brooklyn homes, he told friends – but still plans to testify to the House Oversight Committee on Monday. Archer partnered with Hunter on multiple shady overseas deals, and was subpoenaed by the committee in June to testify. A source close to Archer confirmed reports that he is set to testify about meetings he...

Devon Archer is stepping up to spill the beans. I hope its a huge bowl. Hunter Biden would dial in his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, on speakerphone into meetings with his overseas business partners, according to testimony expected before Congress this week from Devon Archer, the first son’s former best friend. Archer, 48, who is facing jail for his role in a $60 million bond fraud, is scheduled to testify to the House Oversight Committee about meetings he witnessed that were attended by Joe Biden either in person or via speakerphone when Hunter would call his father and introduce...

Hunter Biden and his business associates attempted to get Burisma founder Mykola Zlochevsky a U.S. visa shortly after the president’s son became a board member of the Ukrainian energy firm, according to emails reviewed by the Daily Caller. The emails in Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop archive show a coordinated attempt to obtain a visa for Zlochevsky while he was being investigated by Ukrainian authorities for corruption. Biden and some of his associates were potentially “engaging in registrable lobbying activity,” and one email indicates that Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) violations could have been occurring outside of the exchanges, a FARA...
