Devon Archer, Hunter Biden’s former associate and a convicted felon, is reportedly cooperating with Republican lawmakers and is set to testify this week regarding the $10 million Ukraine-Biden bribe.
According to New York Post reporter Miranda Devine, Archer will detail how Hunter Biden frequently had his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, join meetings with his foreign business contacts, either in person or via speakerphone, on at least two dozen occasions.
Archer, who is currently facing a one-year prison sentence for defrauding an Indian tribe, will be giving his testimony to the House Oversight Committee.
Devon Archer will also confirm to lawmakers that Joe Biden is indeed the person referred to as the “Big Guy.”
In 2017, James Gilliar, a business associate involved in the CEFC joint venture, detailed a payment structure in an email to Tony Bobulinski and Hunter Biden, asking, “10 held by H for the big guy?”
Similarly, Mykola Zlochevsky referred to Joe Biden as “the big guy” in the FBI’s FD-1023 form.
The New York Post reported:
One such meeting was in Dubai late in the evening of Friday, Dec. 4, 2015, after a board meeting of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma, which was paying Hunter $83,000 a month as a director.
Archer, who also was a director, is expected to testify that, after dinner with the Burisma board at the Burj Al Arab Hotel, he and Hunter traveled six miles north to the Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach to have a drink with one of Hunter’s friends.
While they were sitting outside at the bar, Vadym Pozharskyi, a senior Burisma executive, phoned to ask where they were because Burisma’s owner Mykola Zlochevsky needed to speak to Hunter urgently.
Soon afterward, the two Ukrainians joined Hunter and Archer at the Four Seasons bar and Pozharskyi asked Hunter: “Can you ring your dad?” At the time it was early afternoon, Friday, in Washington, DC.
Hunter then called his father, put him on speaker, placed the phone on the table, and introduced the Ukrainians to Joe Biden by name as “Nikolai and Vadym.”
He also said words to the effect that the Burisma bigwigs “need our support.”
VP Biden greeted the Ukrainians but spoke only in vague pleasantries during the short call, and in other such interactions with Hunter’s overseas business partners, Archer is expected to testify.
Congressional investigators will are expected to ask Devon Archer about the reasons behind Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky’s urgent request for a call with Joe Biden in 2015, per Miranda Devine’s report.
Just three days after the urgent speakerphone call, Joe Biden was scheduled to travel to Kiev to deliver an address to the Ukrainian parliament regarding the country’s corruption issues. During this time, Mykola Zlochevsky was also under investigation.
A month later, Viktor Shokin was fired after Joe Biden threatened to withhold $1 billion from Ukraine.
Reminder: Joe Biden publicly boasted about bribing Ukraine with $1 billion in aid to fire Viktor Shokin, the Ukrainian Prosecutor General who was investigating corruption related to Burisma.
I “said: I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money. Well, son of a bitch. He got fired,” Vice President Biden said back in 2018.
