Devon Archer Testifies That Burisma Pressured Hunter Biden to Take Care of the Prosecutor Investigating Them

And boy oh boy, did the Bidens deliver!

As Hunter Biden told the Chinese Communist Party-linked businessman he was shaking down for $10 million: "You know the Bidens are the best at delivering for you."

Devon Archer delivered bombshell testimony to Congress on Monday, telling lawmakers that Burisma Holdings pressured Hunter Biden in December 2015 to deal with a Ukrainian prosecutor who was investigating the firm for corruption shortly before the then-vice president took steps to force the prosecutor's firing, according to lawmakers familiar with the transcribed interview.

Archer told the House Oversight and Accountability Committee that Hunter Biden was added to Burisma's board in 2014 because his family's "brand" brought value at a time when the firm was facing corruption allegations from the United States, Great Britain and Ukraine's own prosecutor general office, the lawmakers said.

"Devon Archer testified that the value of adding Hunter Biden to Burisma's board was 'the brand' and confirmed that then-Vice President Joe Biden brought the most value to 'the brand,'" the committee said in a statement issued by Chairman James Comer. "Archer also stated that Burisma would have gone under if not for 'the brand."

Archer also directly contradicted Joe Biden's long held claims he never met with Hunter Biden's foreign business associates, telling the committee America's current president got on speakerphone more than 20 times with his son's business clients.

Archer testified that Joe Biden did not engage in specific business on such calls, instead he "was put on the phone to sell 'the brand,'" the committee said.

The only purpose for putting Joe Biden on the phone was to signal that yes, Joe Biden is aware of this "business" relationship, and yes, Joe Biden is on board and will use his power as Vice President to further the goals of the "business."


After the interview, even Democrats were forced to acknowledge Joe Biden had contacts with business associates of his son. And Comer accused the president of misleading the American public.

"Devon Archer's testimony today confirms Joe Biden lied to the American people when he said he had no knowledge about his son's business dealings and was not involved. Joe Biden was 'the brand' that his son sold around the world to enrich the Biden family. When Joe Biden was Vice President of the United States, he joined Hunter Biden's dinners with his foreign business associates in person or by speakerphone over 20 times."

"Why did Joe Biden lie to the American people about his family's business dealings and his involvement? It begs the question what else he is hiding from the American people," he added.

Gotta love the "reporter's" very, very helpful framing of the question: "Isn't it true that you're not concerned about the speakerphone chats with Joe Biden because he never got into the specifics of the business?"

Dan Goldman isn't giving talking points to the "reporter." The "reporter" is giving talking points to Dan Goldman.

Dan Goldman also insisted that Biden talking to Hunter's "business associates" does not contradict Biden's claim that he "never discussed business with Hunter."

Update: A GOP Representative says, "This is rising to the level of treason."

Obama also knew Joe made up a pretext to spy on Flynn, that Hillary was working off the books on a homebrewed server which all of our enemies had access to, and that the Russian collusion stuff was a hoax.

And the only person who will go to jail for any of that is Trump. Because the message has to be sent that there is no opposing our elites and that they are above the law.

Burisma: Hey, it sure would be nice if that Ukrainian prosecuter were to be fired.

Joe Biden: Yeah, and it would be nice you paid me...er, my son $10 million.
Yeah, it's a very nice day, beautiful weather. One would pay a lot for such a day. Like, $10M.

I doubt it. They are all involved in this scam. This was the reason for the Russia collusion hoax. Obama, Brennan, Comey, Hillary and more, they are all dirty.

They impeached Trump for even suggesting the corruption in Ukraine be looked into and it was the entire deep state and the establishment. I don't think any of them really want this looked into. But Hunter is a stupid crackhead who left a laptop full of incriminating evidence around and Joe was stupid enough to brag about getting the prosecutor fired on tape.

it's their sandbox!!!

they grabbed it right away when it became "independent" - again, kids of the emigres here tried to go over to help build up the fledgling country, but they all came back very disillusioned b/c the place was already in the pocket of criminal gangs (like American Dems are).

107 >The many Talents of Joe Biden.

-
Tom Elliott@tomselliott
Biden is a “family man” & “loving father” who:
— Has two children who are drug addicts
— Had “inappropriate” showers with his daughter
— Has a dog that attacks people
— Didn’t seem to care when his son started banging the widow of his deceased son
— Didn’t seem to care when his son had sexual relations with his granddaughter
— Lies about his son’s death to win plaudits from U.S. servicemen
— Refused to acknowledge the existence of one of his granddaughters until his polling nosedived
— In the best case scenario, allowed his family to take millions in unreported income from hostile nations owing his own position in government; in the worst case, helped orchestrate & launder bribes while, in return, dishing out favors as vice president & now president

Posted by: Adirondack Patriot at August 01, 2023 12:29 PM (lf83v)

181 I have always been clear, it will never change: President Biden has consistently, from the beginning, always always always said that he did not sign any formal written notarized and witnessed legal agreements, written in English, in 12-point Times New Roman typeface, with any of Hunter's individual business partners as those terms were defined during the relevant period or periods by the applicable governing legal authorities including relevant jurisdictional and choice of law considerations.

Biden is a “family man” & “loving father” who:
— Has two children who are drug addicts
— Had “inappropriate” showers with his daughter
— Has a dog that attacks people
— Didn’t seem to care when his son started banging the widow of his deceased son
— Didn’t seem to care when his son had sexual relations with his granddaughter
— Lies about his son’s death to win plaudits from U.S. servicemen
— Refused to acknowledge the existence of one of his granddaughters until his polling nosedived
— In the best case scenario, allowed his family to take millions in unreported income from hostile nations owing his own position in government; in the worst case, helped orchestrate & launder bribes while, in return, dishing out favors as vice president & now president

And while the clip made it to consecrative blogs and Ace linked it, the FNM never covered it. I think this was even before the Dem convention, possibly before the end of the primaries when the D's could have replaced Biden easily enough. The FNM either wanted Biden or were told the deep state wanted Biden and went along. The FNM editors and producers ought to be tried for sedition or something; without them shilling for Biden, he would have been just a senile pervert with a track record of being a corrupt politician and the LIVs would never of voted for him.

Are they fucking kidding? Not that I buy this crap, but if you look up 'influence peddler' in the dictionary, you'll see a picture of Donald Trump's big, fat, ugly face. Hell, you'll find a Christmas card of him and his whole family of criminals.

Another sentenced criminal testifying for the GQP against Hunter? I'm not sure Dems would go after Ivanka and Jared for the 'good' of the country , so I hope Jack Smith goes after crime ring family members Ivanka and Jared.

I don't remember him saying anything about Hunter "selling the allusion of access" to his father. Rather, he carefully explained how the death of Beau Biden deeply affected the two, and that they called each other frequently during the bereavement period. I don't even know what "allusion of access" means in this context.

Leviathan is a "country" of its own, its own policies, laws, courts, culture, religion, organization, castes, hierarchy, military and diplomatic relations that is completely and totally separate from the conquered FUSA which it mainly uses as a means of plunder and raw parasitism.

Biden's antics would be treason if Fact One is not true; because Fact Two is true, there is no treason because Biden was not elected as POTFUSA, but installed as a figurehead for Leviathan.

I don't think the public knows much, but the media can't blackout an impeachment trial of Biden. And I'm not sure it will be like Clinton where people thought the Republicans overreached. Clinton's impeachment was about lying about an affair. This is about being bribed by a foreign power for f's sake. Put the jerk on trial and let the world know what he did.

Getting paid is only part of the transaction. The question is what did he do for the payment and isn't entirely clear yet.

If it can be shown that the bribes he took led to changes in US policy that led to the war in Ukraine or the enrichment of China and the expense of the US then it will absolutely be the biggest scandal in US history.

400 The clock is running out on Bidenomics

That’s because after unexpectedly dumping by 496K in May (a number which has been revised far worse of course), the BLS just reported that in June the number of job openings was practically unchanged, dropping by just 34K, to 9.582MM from a downward revised 9.616 million. And while the monthly change was modest after the downward revision of course, the total was dragged to the lowest level since April 2021.

His claims are what you would expect:

As chief prosecutor it was his job to investigate
Burisma told Hunter to tell Joe to make him stop investigating them...and he did.

446 340 Biden will be out of office in 18 months or --God forfend-- into his second term. This needs to be done now to damage him and make Kamala take over, who will be a sure loser against Trump. How carefully do the House investigations need to be done? Not that carefully I don't think. Senate won't convict anyway. The point of this is political. Yes, we want justice, but that won't occur with a conviction, so the next best justice is to show the world how corrupt this bum is WHILE HE IS IN OFFICE and still, plausibly, the 2024 candidate. I think the slow moving is not just the investigations; it's because McCarthy and the establishment GOP doesn't want to do it because as usual they are listening to consultants who are saying impeachment will generate sympathy for poor old Joe. But I'm not sure you can sympathize with most voters around a bribe to affect US policy.

448 In his speech bragging about firing the Uke prosecutor Biden said he replaced him with someone "more solid."

Show me the internal WH paper trail that led up the decision to demand the firing, our communications with the Ukes asking for it before the Biden ultimatum, and the paper trail of our assessments of his replacement.

These are all Dogs that Didn't Bark. Overall, if we cared so friggin much about firing the one prosecutor who did investigate Burisma (allegedly for prior "corruption") then did his successor do any better? And if not, why were we suddenly totally fine with that?

I wish someone in the House would be asking these questions. It's all about "connecting the dots" and not making any inferences about what would be documented IF Biden's explanation were plausible.
