Devon Archer, Hunter Biden’s former business partner, delivered testimony Monday to the House Oversight Committee.
In the transcribed interview, Archer reportedly said Burisma Holdings ‘pressured’ Hunter Biden to handle a prosecutor investigating the firm for corruption shortly before then-Vice President Joe Biden forced the prosecutor’s firing.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) said Devon Archer's testimony proved "Joe Biden lied" to the American people.
The House Oversight Committee published its key findings from Devon Archer's testimony.
"We completed a transcribed interview with Biden associate, Devon Archer. Archer’s testimony confirms Joe Biden lied to the American people when he said he had no knowledge about his son’s business dealings and was not involved," the House Oversight Committee wrote.

"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," the House Oversight Committee continued.
"Devon Archer testified that the value of adding Hunter Biden to Burisma’s board was 'the brand' and confirmed that then-Vice President Joe Biden was 'the brand' and that the 20 phone calls were to sell 'the brand.'"

"In fact, Devon Archer admitted that 'Burisma would have gone out of business if ‘the brand’ had not been attached to it.' Because of the Bidens’ involvement, people would have been intimidated to mess with Burisma legally," the House Oversight Committee continued.
"In December 2015, Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of Burisma, and Vadym Pozharski, an executive of Burisma, placed constant pressure on Hunter Biden to get help from D.C. regarding the Ukrainian prosecutor, Viktor Shokin. Shokin was investigating Burisma for corruption."

"Hunter Biden, along with Zlochevsky and Pozharski, 'called D.C.' to discuss the matter. Biden, Zlochevsky, and Pozharski stepped away to make the call. This raises concerns that Hunter Biden was in violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act," the House Oversight Committee continued.
"Joe Biden was dialed into a dinner in Paris with a French energy company and in China with Jonathan Li, the CEO of BHR. Then-VP Biden also had coffee with Li in Beijing and even wrote a letter of recommendation for college for Li’s daughter."

"Archer confirmed Joe Biden was referred to as 'my guy' by Hunter Biden," the House Oversight Committee continued.
"In 2014, then-VP Biden attended a business dinner with Hunter & his associates at Café Milano in D.C. Elena Baturina, a Russian oligarch who is the widow of the former mayor of Moscow, was an attendee. Notably, the Biden Admin’s public sanctions do not contain Baturina."

The House Oversight Committee stated in this press release:
House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) issued the following statement following Devon Archer’s four-hour transcribed interview with the committee:
“Devon Archer’s testimony today confirms Joe Biden lied to the American people when he said he had no knowledge about his son’s business dealings and was not involved. Joe Biden was ‘the brand’ that his son sold around the world to enrich the Biden family. 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.
“Why did Joe Biden lie to the American people about his family’s business dealings and his involvement? It begs the question what else he is hiding from the American people. The House Committee on Oversight and Accountability will continue to follow the Bidens’ money trail and interview witnesses to determine whether foreign actors targeted the Bidens, President Biden is compromised and corrupt, and our national security is threatened.”
