DOJ tries to jail key Hunter Biden witness Devon Archer on eve of congressional testimony 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 set to deliver closed-door testimony to the House Oversight Committee on Monday about Biden — had been challenging the conviction. His attorney, Matthew Schwartz, said he would be filing a formal response to the request from the US Attorney’s Office by Wednesday — and noted that his client would still testify as planned despite allegations the DOJ letter was an intimidation tactic. “We are aware of speculation that the Department of Justice’s weekend request to have Mr. Archer report to prison is an attempt by the Biden administration to intimidate him in advance of his meeting with the House Oversight Committee,” Schwartz said in a statement, per Politico. “To be clear, Mr. Archer does not agree with that speculation,” Schwartz added. “In any case, Mr. Archer will do what he has planned to do all along, which is to show up on Monday and to honestly answer the questions that are put to him by the Congressional investigators.” ..... https://nypost.com/2023/07/30/...yp&utm_medium=social ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan "Once there was only dark.

This guy ducking the committee three times suggests he's not going to roll over. If he were he'd of testified back in June when his first appearance was scheduled. It's possible he needed the extra time to figure out a way to navigate through while reducing legal exposure. Or, he will just take the Fifth when needed. I don't expect this guy will drop anything big. Now is Hunter dirty? Yup. Without a doubt. He violated a federal gun law. He has admitted to illegal drug use, and a pension for prostitutes. He violated tax law, and he didn't register as a foreign lobbyist while he was bringing home bags of cash. Is the government trying to protect him? Yes, without a doubt. Is the government unfairly targeting an ex-president? Yes, they are. Here's where things start to get murky. The Biden family set up a labyrinth of shell corporations to hide or launder those bags of cash. Now if you want to prove illegality on the part of Joe Biden you have to do two things. 1. Account for the money. 2. Quid pro quo. To address Flashlight Boy's point I haven't seen anything close to actual proof yet. But, we have plenty of political mud to sling. So sling away to the very best of your ability. And may it result in fortune on election day. _________________________ OH, Bonnie McMurray! | |||

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/...t-committee-n2626393 Archer’s counsel, according to the DOJ letter, said it was “premature” to set a sentencing date because Archer was considering further appeals and intended to raise an “error” in the sentencing process. Archer’s lawyer plans to file a response to the U.S. attorney’s demands by Wednesday. Matthew Schwartz, Archer’s attorney, also rejected the notion that there’s any connection between Archer’s tiff with the Justice Department and his potentially imminent jail time. “We are aware of speculation that the Department of Justice’s weekend request to have Mr. Archer report to prison is an attempt by the Biden administration to intimidate him in advance of his meeting with the House Oversight Committee,” Schwartz said in a statement. “To be clear, Mr. Archer does not agree with that speculation. In any case, Mr. Archer will do what he has planned to do all along, which is to show up on Monday and to honestly answer the questions that are put to him by the Congressional investigators." I guess we will find out if the biden crime family has gotten to Devon Archer | |||

Riiiiiight  They had a light shined on them and like cockroaches, they’re now scattering: Biden's DOJ backs down and says it did NOT call for Devon Archer to be jailed BEFORE testimony today which could implicate Joe in son Hunter's shady business deals - after 'odd' letter on Saturday | |||

https://www.breitbart.com/2024...stermind-marc-elias/ President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign has parted ways with Marc Elias, the election lawyer who helped arrange the “Russia collusion” hoax and filed many of the lawsuits that transformed voting to enable Biden’s win in 2020. Axios.com reported Monday: President Biden’s team recently split with the Democratic Party’s longtime lawyer, Marc Elias, because of disagreements with Elias’ legal strategies and strained personal relationships, according to several people familiar with the dispute. Why it matters: The divorce has created a divide in the party’s legal apparatus going into the 2024 election — with Elias representing Democrats’ committees for House, Senate and state legislative races, while Biden’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee mostly get legal help elsewhere. Axios describes various differences in strategy and style between Elias and Biden lawyer Bob Bauer. It does not mention any of Elias’s past controversial roles. Elias has long been notorious for challenging election results, dating back to Al Franken’s win over incumbent Republican Senator Norm Coleman in 2008 — a race that tipped the Senate toward a filibuster-proof majority for Democrats. He is also a frequent guest on MSNBC, attacking and mocking Republicans’ election challenges. In 2017, the Washington Post revealed that Elias, who was then working for the Democratic Party0aligned Perkins Coie law firm, hired Fusion GPS, an opposition research firm, on behalf of Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee to prepare the so-called Russia “dossier.” That, in turn, helped launch an FBI investigation and fueled media conspiracy theories that sought to overturn the 2016 election. Elias split with Perkins Coie shortly before he became a key witness in the trial of former Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann. He admitted he had discretion to direct Fusion GPS’s efforts. Sussmann was acquitted by a District of Columbia jury in what some observers called an act of “jury nullification”: Trump is simply so hated inside the Beltway that he and his supporters are presumed guilty, and his opponents are presumed innocent. In 2020, Elias helped lead Democratic Party efforts to challenge voting laws to allow for universal vote-by-mail, using the coronavirus pandemic to accelerate a strategy the party had begun to embrace in an effort to turn out their voters in higher numbers. Ironically, he also led efforts to challenge election results when Democrats lost, and even claimed in one case that voting machines were to blame. In 2021, Elias was sanctioned by the Fifth Circuit for filing a nearly identical motion to one that had been rejected and ordered to complete a new course in legal ethics. Elias is bad news and as much as any single person pushed the 2016 false Russia story, and bent election laws to make it easier to cheat | |||

Elias is scum but this is further evidence of the growing distance between the Biden campaign and the rest of the Democrat party. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Believe it or not, he actually is/was an attorney(CT and DC bar member), the judge asked him about it last week. Unfortunately for him: EXCLUSIVE: Hunter Biden told judge under oath that he was a member of the Connecticut bar in good standing - but he was SUSPENDED two years ago for failure to pay fees
My man got suspended in CT for not paying his $75 annual fees, how very Hunter of him.  __________________________________ NRA Benefactor I lost all my weapons in a boating, umm, accident. http://www.aufamily.com/forums/ | |||

Elias isn't stepping out of Democrat politics but rather he's not going to be a front man for Biden. My guess is that he'll be behind the scenes still pushing his shenanigans and BS, all in an effort to get Dems elected or reelected. He can go dark and work it that way. | |||

https://www.foxnews.com/politi...-dealings-comer-says House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer said Devon Archer confirmed in his appearance Monday that President Biden "lied to the American people when he said he had no knowledge about his son’s business dealings and was not involved." Comer’s comments come after Archer, a former business associate and longtime friend of Hunter Biden, sat for hours before the House Oversight Committee in a closed-door hearing Monday. Archer said that Hunter put his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, on speakerphone while meeting with business partners at least 20 times. Archer described how Joe Biden was put on the phone to sell "the brand." "Joe Biden was ‘the brand’ that his son sold around the world to enrich the Biden family," Comer said. "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." "When Burisma’s owner was facing pressure from the Ukrainian prosecutor investigating the company for corruption, Archer testified that Burisma executives asked Hunter to ‘call D.C.’ after a Burisma board meeting in Dubai," Comer continued. "Why did Joe Biden lie to the American people about his family’s business dealings and his involvement?" He asked. "It begs the question what else he is hiding from the American people." Archer also testified that "Burisma would have gone out of business if ‘the brand’ had not been attached to it." Archer said he believed that Hunter Biden being on the board and the "Biden brand" contributed to Burisma’s longevity, according to Comer’s office, and suggested that people would have been "intimidated to mess with Burisma legally because of the Biden brand." adding: Democrat Rep. Dan Goldman says Hunter Biden did, in fact, frequently put his dad on speakerphone for his business partners — but they were only talking about the weather https://twitter.com/RNCResearc...s-testimony-n2626432 Rep. Andy Biggs (R., Ariz.), a member of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, said Archer testified that only pleasantries were exchanged when Joe Biden was on the phone with his son during meetings. Still, Biggs said that he was confident that the testimony implicated Biden in his son’s business activities. “People would be intimidated to legally mess with Burisma because of the Biden family brand,” Biggs said Archer testified. https://www.powerlineblog.com/...devon-archer-say.phpThis message has been edited.

Yesterday was great! The story has changed from The Big Guy never talked to Hunter's business associates to it would have been rude for him not to say hello to people. I'm hearing Tony Bobulinski is going to testify soon. If you recall, he claims he met with The Big Guy. These are good days. | |||
