Staff Reports
In a surprising development, Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, has taken a controversial stance by distancing himself from his former business partner, Devon Archer, labeling him a mere "inmate." Randy DeSoto, a senior staff writer for The Western Journal, has brought attention to this legal and public relations move by the president's son.
Hunter is scheduled to appear before the House Oversight Committee to address questions regarding his family's foreign business dealings, a topic that has been surrounded by controversy for years. Archer's role in these dealings has become a focal point of the hearing, with Archer having previously testified and provided damning insights into the intricacies of the Biden family's business affairs, putting Hunter in a precarious position.

According to information from The New York Sun, Hunter's lawyer, Abbe Lowell, sent a letter to the committee aiming to distance his client from Archer, characterizing him as "an inmate convicted for his involvement in a tribal bond scheme that never involved Hunter." This move coincides with Archer's legal troubles, having been sentenced to over a year in federal prison for defrauding a Native American tribe.
Archer's conviction, initially overturned on appeal, has been reinstated following pushback from prosecutors. Despite the ongoing legal proceedings, the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York has confirmed that Archer has yet to report for prison, undermining Hunter's attempt to portray him as an "inmate."
DeSoto suggests that Hunter Biden and his legal team may be employing desperate measures to divert attention from the pressing legal matters he faces, including allegations of tax evasion and gun charges. The article humorously points out that the first son and his legal counsel might be better off refraining from flimsy attempts at deflection and keeping quiet.
In addition to legal challenges, Archer reportedly reached out to Hunter last year, questioning why Joe Biden hadn’t done more to shield him from prosecution. Texts from Hunter's laptop reveal Archer confronting him about being targeted for arrest during the Obama/Biden administration, putting the Bidens in an uncomfortable spotlight.
Archer's closed-door testimony in July suggested that Joe Biden may have been more informed about his son’s business dealings than previously disclosed. Archer confirmed Joe Biden attended dinners with Hunter’s business associates, including a meeting involving a Burisma Holdings executive. This revelation raises questions about potential conflicts of interest and the extent to which the Bidens may have utilized their political influence for personal gain.
DeSoto highlights a speech by Joe Biden in Ukraine, where he boasted about pressuring the government to fire a prosecutor investigating Burisma—the same company paying Hunter for his board position. This revelation contradicts Joe Biden's denial of involvement in his son’s business ventures, challenging Archer’s account.
The article concludes that the Bidens are facing a wave of allegations, portraying Hunter's attempts to shift blame onto Archer as a last-ditch effort to avoid accountability. With Archer's insider knowledge, the pressure on Hunter Biden to provide genuine answers is increasing. The article, written in a lively, conversational style with a clear conservative slant, frames the unfolding scandal as a serious threat to the Biden family’s integrity and invites further speculation on the ethical conduct of the first family.
