WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Monday rejected an appeal from a former business partner of presidential son Hunter Biden who was seeking to overturn his criminal conviction for securities fraud.
As is typical, the justices did not comment in leaving in place a federal appeals court ruling that reinstated the fraud conviction of Devon Archer. A lower court judge had earlier set aside a jury verdict that found Archer guilty of fraud and ordered a new trial.
Biden was not involved in the effort to defraud the Oglala Sioux Indian tribe in a scheme that involved the sale of bonds, but participants in the fraud invoked his name to enhance their credentials.
Archer was convicted in 2018. His conviction was overturned later that year before the court of appeals in New York reinstated it in 2020.
Biden and Archer had been business partners, and both served on the board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma.

What a surprise! The Wokies on the Supreme Court can usually be counted on to promote anything that advances the Democrat Party and its minions.

Poopypants is guilty as sin in this, so his handlers will drop everything else and have Big Gun talking head defenders on every media outlet harping on how this has already been "adjudicated" and that he'd already been "exonerated".
No, Hunter wasn’t involved.
He probably got a cut of the action and sent 10% to the big man, but he wasn’t involved . . .
Missed getting Hunter “by That Much”!!!
