Joe Biden swears he doesn’t have anything to do with his son’s business dealings. Apparently, he’s lying through his teeth.
Because this one phone call from Joe Biden’s time as Vice President will doom him.
A whistleblower is set to speak before Congress this week, claiming that then-Vice President Joe Biden took part in phone talks with his son Hunter’s international business partners.
According to a story in the New York Post, Devon Archer, a former close friend of Hunter Biden’s, will be testifying before the House Oversight Committee.
According to the Post, Committee Chair Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., stated, “We are looking forward very much to hearing from Devon Archer about all of the times he has witnessed Joe Biden meeting with Hunter Biden’s overseas business partners while he was vice president, including on speakerphone.”
Joe Biden has often claimed that he was unaware of Hunter’s international business activities.
According to reports, Archer, 48, will inform the House panel that he saw Hunter Biden bring his father, Joe Biden, into meetings via speakerphone to introduce him to potential investors or foreign business partners.
Mykola Zlochevsky, owner of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma, called in December 2015 and requested an immediate conversation with Hunter before being connected with Vice President Joe Biden.
According to the Post, Archer will testify that during the brief call, Joe Biden greeted Zlochevsky and senior Burisma executive Vadym Pozharskyi but only spoke in generalities.
Hunter reportedly added on the phone that the Burisma leaders “need our support,” which Archer confirmed.
As a director at Burisma, Hunter was being paid $83,000 per month.
The Post stated that lawmakers intend to investigate Zlochevsky’s motivations for requesting the emergency contact with Joe Biden.
Viktor Shokin, the Ukrainian prosecutor general, was looking into corruption allegations against Burisma at the time of the call. On February 2, 2016, when Zlochevsky was in exile in Dubai, Shokin seized his homes, land, and a luxury vehicle.
A month later, though, Shokin lost his job because Joe Biden, the point man for Ukraine in the Obama administration, threatened to cut off $1 billion in aid.
After discussing a supper at a Parisian restaurant when Hunter had his dad on speaker to attract potential investors, Archer is likely to testify about as many as two dozen subsequent speakerphone meetings.
According to the Post, the whistleblower is also likely to testify about two dinners Hunter hosted for his father, the vice president, where he met with business associates from the Ukraine, Russia, and Kazakhstan.
Archer is on the hook for a $60 million bond scam and could spend years behind bars.
According to one of Archer’s closest friends, the whistleblower feels compelled to testify because it is his “civic duty.”
Tony Bobulinski, another former boyfriend of Hunter Biden, recalls a rendezvous at the Chateau Marmont pool in Los Angeles, when Hunter offered to call his father.
According to Bobulinski, “I am also aware of other Biden family business associates confirming that Joe would take phone calls from Hunter in the middle of business meetings and would weigh in via speakerphone,” as reported by the Post.
“The American people don’t fully appreciate yet the key role Joe Biden played in the Biden family global influence-peddling… I would equate it to a chairman’s role in a traditional business structure.”
Last week, Republican Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley revealed an FBI document that says the FBI was informed by a confidential human source (CHS) that former Vice President Joe Biden and Zlochevsky engaged in a criminal bribery plot.
