The walls are closing in on Hunter Biden.

The US attorney in Delaware investigating his business affairs has been busy subpoenaing his bank records and calling in his ex-girlfriends to testify in front of a grand jury about his wild spending sprees.

Devon Archer, his former business partner, best friend and fellow Yale alum, faces sentencing Monday, four years after being convicted over a $60 million scheme to defraud one of the poorest Indian tribes in America.

Prosecutors from the Southern District of New York have recommended to US District Judge Ronnie Abrams that Archer serve 30 months in prison, the same as co-defendant Bevan Cooney.

But yesterday, Archer’s lawyer, Matthew Schwartz of Boies Schiller Flexner, asked Abrams for a non-custodial sentence, arguing Archer has suffered enough.

He “has been subject to pretrial supervision for nearly seven years during which he has a spotless record of compliance, has lived an otherwise exemplary life, and has already suffered greatly due to the collateral consequences of his arrest, trial and conviction.”

No further punishment is warranted, because Archer, a former Abercrombie & Fitch model, has “watched his reputation and career systemically crumble” and he “and his family have been affected financially, and are currently severely cash-negative.”

Prosecutors gave short shrift to Archer crying poor, arguing that he “is living in a multimillion-dollar Brooklyn townhouse, and owns a second residence in the Hamptons, both of which have significant equity. He and his wife [Krista, a doctor] own investment assets worth more than several million dollars …

Did the Russians find another Hunter laptop in Kiev?

Imagine what videos or documents could come out if they find the right sources in Ukraine....

Hunter Biden will be in hot water a little after the moment Hillary Clinton is indicted.

Please. I am more likely to be arrested for Hunter Biden’s crimes than Hunter Biden.

This story about the sentencing of a close Biden associate for defrauding an Indian tribe has gone almost completely unreported. Can you imagine that if it were a Trump associate? Of course not.

After The Big Guy became Pres, he still shared joint bank accounts with Hunter Biden. But nothing to see here, move along.

"Devon Archer...faces sentencing Monday...Prosecutors...have recommended...that Archer serve 30 months in prison, the same as co-defendant Bevan Cooney."

Devon, Bevan and Hunter.

These are the names of people who not only know the lyrics to their school's alma mater, but actually sing it every time they get together.

Why would anybody 'share bank accounts' with their adult child? Unless it was to get a piece of the action..............

“Hot water” my butt. That little loser, a-hole has 0 to worry about. What’s next? “Bombshells”? “Kracken”? “Earth shattering”?

Hunter will send a colorful post card from a faraway land.
He may have read this:

“Let’s have a little fun today: Imagine you’re being pursued by government agents, angry creditors, a vindictive ex-spouse, or a hitman with a bounty on your head. You need to find somewhere to hide out under the radar until things blow over… or possibly forever.

Where would you go if the world was your oyster and you had to escape?

Your first inclination may well be to look for one of the world’s non-extradition countries. You ought to be careful, however, because they are not all created equal.”
excerpt
Non extradition to the US for any crimes:
BRUNEI
RUSSIA AND CHINA
THE GULF STATES
MONTENEGRO
UKRAINE AND MOLDOVA
VIETNAM, CAMBODIA, AND MONGOLIA
GOING TO THE BEACH – MALDIVES, VANUATU, AND TUNISIA
WHEN IN AFRICA – ETHIOPIA, BOTSWANA, AND UGANDA”
