US attorney who has led Hunter Biden probe offers to publicly testify to Congress this fall
According to Miranda Devine, congressional investigators will ask Devon Archer why Burisma owner Mykola Zlochevsky requested an urgent call with Joe Biden in 2015.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.
There doesn't need to be a money trail to Joe for him to be compromised. The FBI has now on record said the laptop is real, there are witnesses willing to testify of his involvement, there are whistleblowers (IRS and FBI) testifying that they weren't allowed to prosecute Hunter for felonies or investigate, there is evidence of censorship and suppression of the laptop pre-election.........why do you need a money trail to Joe to tell your brain that he's corrupt and shouldn't be in office?Sure man - show me the deposits into Joe's bank account, the supposed "recorded tapes", a first hand witness who isn't a Chinese spy and most of all, prove to me he did something criminal.
Because the longer this goes on, the more it lacks credibility and the less they're doing for America. And this ain't helping nobody...
ShockerUS attorney who has led Hunter Biden probe offers to publicly testify to Congress this fall
They will come up with a phony story to feed to congress along with a sprinkling of cannot answer this question to protect sources and methods.Shocker
"Notably, those dates are all long after Hunter Biden’s scheduled guilty plea, which is set to take place Wednesday. He has agreed to plead guilty to two federal tax misdemeanors as part of a plea dea"

The IRS weren't even allowed to question Hunter's children, Joe's brother, the grandkids, his sister, etc.......the banks all filed suspicious activity reports on more than 25 transactions. They were all laundering money.
I get it, no one likes to be wrong but you'd have to be learning challenged or just a willful idiot to think he's innocent at this point.
We've known for weeks now that he would plead guilty but it makes sense to let the sentencing play out before Weiss testifies - "under oath"Shocker
"Notably, those dates are all long after Hunter Biden’s scheduled guilty plea, which is set to take place Wednesday. He has agreed to plead guilty to two federal tax misdemeanors as part of a plea dea"
Why does it make sense to not have him testify before a ruling is made on his plea deal? He can't be tried for the same crimes twice, right?We've known for weeks now that he would plead guilty but it makes sense to let the sentencing play out before Weiss testifies - "under oath"
Trump appointed him, not JoeHow many people are in these branches of government that have some tie back to these criminals? Like ticks ....
You clearly didn't read that article .......Trump appointed him, not Joe
😂 Jesse Watters must have been 🔥 tonight!The dam is about to burst....
If you believe all this ….I have some beach front property in North Dakota for sale.
- We know the laptop is real but for the thousandth time, there is nothing in it that implicates Joe in a "crime"
- Involvement in what? A crime? There has been zero proof of that
- Stop confusing Hunter with Joe. Remember, Joe could have easily fired the state's attorney investigating Hunter when he took office but left him in place to allow him to finish his work. He didn't have to.
- This is 100% political payback for Trump's two impeachments that he deserved. Trump committed his treachery brazenly out in the open and left them no choice lest we let him turn the country into a lawless banana republic.
- This is the definition of a witch hunt - despite there being no evidence that he committed any crimes, the Pubs are holding nationally televised hearings in search of one. If he's guilty then do what you must but this is by all intents and purposes a performative, malignant clown show, as Hakeem Jeffries put it.
- The Pubs spent two years before the mid-terms asking the public to put them in office by harping on inflation, crime and the border but now that they're seated, their motives are clear and show that they lied to us. This was their ulterior motive all along.
- This is helping no one.
I tend to think you really believe you do.If you believe all this ….I have some beach front property in North Dakota for sale.
"We are deeply concerned by any misrepresentations about our work—whether deliberate or arising from misunderstandings—that could unduly harm public confidence in the evenhanded administration of justice, to which we are dedicated," Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte wrote in a letter to Jordan, adding that the DOJ believes "it is strongly in the public interest for the American people and for Congress to hear directly from U.S. Attorney Weiss on these assertions and questions about his authority at a public hearing." Weiss in letters to Jordan has repeatedly denied any interference in his investigation, writing that he had the "ultimate authority" to make charging decisions in the case. "Somehow, I don't think Jim Jordan is going to like the answers US Atty Weiss is going to give," predicted former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance."Long read but pretty shocking when you see all of the facts in one place. This was a brief filed in the Hunter case with some interesting notes regarding what the DOJ has done in preparation of Weiss having to testify. When you read the entire thing, it just wreaks of corruption at the highest levels. When the left talks about the attacks on our democracy, well this is it.
-The DOJ has ensured there is no way Weiss is going to incriminate himself or the DOJ. He legally doesn't have to answer any questions he doesn't want to and the Govt offered a plea agreement that prevents any further investigation.....yikes.
(" The letter contains a number of carefully lawyered caveats that appear to be designed to allow Weiss to refuse to answer any question he finds “difficult” at any eventual hearing. Particularly odd is the reference to limitations of testimony at “this early juncture” to “protect the ongoing matter.” Id. If this case is at an “early juncture” and on-going, then why has the Government offered a plea agreement that by all accounts does not in any way further a related investigation?")
-The DOJ is full stop preventing the release of any information that would either prove innocence of the accused or send him to prison, why would they do that if this has been done by the books?
("The Department is using every possible procedural and substantive mechanism to withhold key records—that may inform the Court of whether the plea before it is in the interest of justice—from Congress, Amici, and the public. Again, these records would go directly to resolving the profound conflicts between the Attorney General, Weiss, and the Whistleblowers.")
Rudy is correct and it was pure character assassination by the deep state controlled msm imo that has his current public reputation destroyed.
Is that the property you bought from Trump? Sounds about right.If you believe all this ….I have some beach front property in North Dakota for sale.
Then why would they (the DOJ) give Weiss the ability to simply not answer any question he chooses not to with no legal repercussions?"We are deeply concerned by any misrepresentations about our work—whether deliberate or arising from misunderstandings—that could unduly harm public confidence in the evenhanded administration of justice, to which we are dedicated," Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte wrote in a letter to Jordan, adding that the DOJ believes "it is strongly in the public interest for the American people and for Congress to hear directly from U.S. Attorney Weiss on these assertions and questions about his authority at a public hearing." Weiss in letters to Jordan has repeatedly denied any interference in his investigation, writing that he had the "ultimate authority" to make charging decisions in the case. "Somehow, I don't think Jim Jordan is going to like the answers US Atty Weiss is going to give," predicted former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance."
DOJ fires back at Jim Jordan over GOP’s “misrepresentations” about Hunter Biden probe
“I don't think Jim Jordan is going to like the answers US Atty Weiss is going to give,” ex-prosecutor predictsnews.yahoo.com
Because Weiss may still be investigating other allegations but that doesn't mean he WON'T answer.Then why would they (the DOJ) give Weiss the ability to simply not answer any question he chooses not to with no legal repercussions?
Also, why wait until after the plea deal? They know that if a judge agrees to it, his testimony means f*ck all.
Cannot make this up. The crooks have every angle covered. No wonder Joe is grinning and eating ice cream all the time.

Hunter Biden investigation: Close Biden political aide worked for Weiss when inquiry began

Hunter Biden investigation: Close Biden political aide worked for Weiss when inquiry began© Provided by Washington Examiner
Aclose associate of the Biden family appears to have spent years working in the Delaware U.S. attorney’s office, including during the months when whistleblowers said the office took up an investigation of Hunter Biden.
Alexander Mackler served as press secretary in Joe Biden’s Senate office and, later, as legal counsel in his vice presidential office. Mackler managed the late Beau Biden’s successful campaign for Delaware attorney general in 2010.
And Mackler served on the Biden-Harris transition team in 2020, helping the Biden administration create the blueprint for its Justice Department.
Mackler also appeared to have a close personal relationship with Hunter Biden. In emails found on Hunter Biden’s laptop, Mackler corresponded frequently with Hunter Biden and his business associates and even referred to Hunter Biden fondly as a “brother” in October 2018. Mackler was working under U.S. Attorney David Weiss in the office at that time, according to his LinkedIn page, which lists him as having worked in the Delaware U.S. attorney’s office from August 2016 to May 2019.
According to testimony to the House Ways and Means Committee from Joseph Ziegler, a top IRS agent on the Hunter Biden case for years, the Delaware office had an investigation into Hunter Biden’s financial dealings by January 2019.
The close relationship between Hunter Biden and a former member of the prosecutorial office investigating him could come under scrutiny as House Republicans dig into the reasons why members of Weiss’s team appeared to slow or block key elements of the Hunter Biden investigation.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Lesley Wolf featured prominently in the testimony of two IRS agents who spent years working on the Hunter Biden investigation. Both Gary Shapley and Ziegler, the IRS whistleblowers, said Wolf intervened to stop multiple investigative steps from moving forward, including by preventing FBI agents from asking witnesses any questions about Joe Biden’s involvement in foreign business affairs and by tipping off Hunter Biden’s attorneys about a planned search of his storage unit.
Wolf worked alongside Mackler in the U.S. attorney’s office before Mackler’s departure. She and Mackler prosecuted a major case together, for example.
How their relationship may have factored into the decisions by Wolf that whistleblowers found inexplicable remains unclear.
Mackler now works under Delaware Attorney General Kathy Jennings. In February, Hunter Biden’s attorneys implored Jennings to open an investigation into the Delaware computer repair shop owner who helped publicize the contents of Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop, as well as the Donald Trump associates who helped spread the laptop’s contents.
Jennings’s office did not respond to a request for comment about Mackler’s relationship to the Biden’s, as well as whether her office did ultimately open the investigation into the dissemination of the Hunter Biden laptop.
Jennings herself has extensive ties to the Biden family. She endorsed him almost immediately upon his entry into the presidential race in 2019, boasting to social media that she has known the Biden family “for most of my life.”
Mackler’s deep connections to the Biden family raise questions about whether he should ever have come close to an investigation involving the Bidens.
He emailed with Hunter Biden and Eric Schwerin, one of Hunter Biden’s business partners, on what appears to be the first day of his new job at the Delaware U.S. attorney’s office to talk about the office’s email retention policy.
Schwerin joked to Mackler that his response was “the last email you ever receive from me.”
Days after Mackler had started working for the U.S. attorney’s office, he was still working with the Bidens, according to Hunter Biden’s emails.
Mackler helped edit public statements related to the launch of an institute in Joe Biden’s name at the University of Delaware while working for the Delaware U.S. attorney’s office, for example.
In late August 2016 — after, it would seem, Mackler began his job at the U.S. attorney’s office — Mackler fired off an email to Hunter Biden and Schwerin opining on the public perception of Hillary Clinton’s lucrative work with the Clinton Foundation. He argued that there should be a distinction between powerful people who make money once out of office and those who appear to be monetizing their current or future access to government power.
“When someone leaves public life and they or their spouse no longer hold prominent government positions … they can do almost whatever they want and take money from almost anyone they can personally stomach and who passes their personal barometer,” Mackler wrote. “That's the point (and the good news for us).”
House Republicans are gearing up to conduct a potentially explosive interview next week with Devon Archer, a former business partner of Hunter Biden’s who, facing a conviction and prison time on fraud charges, could have more of an incentive to divulge details to congressional investigators than other witnesses in Hunter Biden’s orbit.
Archer is reportedly poised to testify that Joe Biden frequently spoke to Hunter Biden’s prospective foreign business partners on speakerphone as his son sought to flex his access to his powerful father in the course of negotiations — a clear departure from Joe Biden’s denials of ever having discussed business matters with his son.
The Justice Department said Monday that it would make Weiss available to testify as soon as Sept. 27 — one week after Attorney General Merrick Garland is slated to appear before Congress.
That time frame could clash with what congressional investigators have planned, however; in a letter to the Biden administration last week, House Republicans said they wanted to conduct transcribed interviews with other witnesses, including Wolf, before they held a hearing with Weiss.
Nothing about the Mackler story is made up. Come back with some details to support your claim.And yet this site continues to make stuff up, so, I guess in actuality, You can Make this stuff up.
Nothing about the Mackler story is made up. Come back with some details to support your claim.
The Mackler story didn't help him in court today now did it? Conspiracy squashed!Nothing about the Mackler story is made up. Come back with some details to support your claim.
That's bs. There is a video and they are not going to admit fraud. It would be prison time. Whatever Rudy may have done was the best legal decision for him at this time. Those slimy dems working in these big city election offices are all crooked.How about Rudy, he admitted he made stuff up and that there was no proof in Georgia about those ladies.
It's not squashed. We need to know every detail.The Mackler story didn't help him in court today now did it? Conspiracy squashed!

Completed this. My cell phone must have posted it when I got distracted mid post.Detail of what? That someone who knew Hunter coincidentally worked in the "Delaware" office? Scandalous!!
This is a legal maneuver only. That video clearly shows CHEATING!!..............and we all know it.The video doesn't show what Rudy claimed it does. He is admitting he was wrong, and trying to say that he's sorry, he didn't mean to hurt them, it was reasonable, but completely wrong. Once again, No Fraud. Sorry @TigerGrowls .
The DOJ just tried to give Hunter Biden full immunity on ALL of the actual felony charges and any future FARA charges with an insane plea deal and a tiny little tap on the wrist.deserve to lose the House in January of 2025 because of what they’re doing.
