WASHINGTON — Former Hunter Biden business partner Devon Archer is in talks with the House Oversight Committee to testify about his knowledge of the first family’s business dealings in countries including Russia and Ukraine.
Archer, a since-convicted felon, was a central figure in the dealings of President Biden’s family while he was vice president and seems receptive to speaking with committee staff about what he knows, a source told The Post.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) on Monday issued a subpoena for Archer to appear Friday for a deposition, but he will instead be allowed to negotiate a later appearance.
“We are in contact with his attorney to schedule it for another date,” a committee aide said.
An attorney for Archer did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
The White House and Hunter Biden’s legal team also did not immediately respond.
Archer’s one-year prison sentence for defrauding an American Indian tribe was upheld last week by an appeals court. The Biden family was not involved in that scheme.
Archer potentially could flesh out major gaps in knowledge about allegations that Joe and Hunter Biden were given $10 million in bribes by an executive at Ukrainian gas company Burisma.
The disgraced businessman joined Burisma’s board in early 2014 alongside the then-second son. Also, Obama White House visitor logs indicate that Archer met with Joe Biden as they joined the company in Ukraine, where the elder Biden led US policy.
Archer also was involved in Hunter Biden’s efforts to help Russian oligarchs, including the billionaire former first lady of Moscow Yelena Baturina, to purchase US property — resulting in an alleged $3.5 million transfer from Baturina that surfaced during the 2020 presidential election.

A good friend of mine knows Bevan Cooney pretty well. He’s in federal prison for a scam Hunter Biden cooked up defrauding Native American reservations. Hunter was left alone by the FBI/DOJ but Bevan got 30 months.
And nobody outside of the “Right Wing Press” will even mention it.
how much guaranteed issue life insurance can archer get today for only 9.95 a month?
This guy will probably wind up in jail, and Hunter at another art exhibit.
Here’s my takeaway from the mysterious fortuitous Clinton deaths. If you have dangerous information against a political figure and you try to milk it, you’re going to have have a fatal event. It’s much better to get it out as publicly as possible. Then, you having an accident won’t look so accidental.
There’s never any mention of Chris Heinz, John Kerry’s son. Heinz split from Archer and Hunter over the Burizma board deal. He even sent emails to the State Department about it. Has he been deposed?
EC
He is asking for Money........and if the price is right, he will torpedo the Ship of Biden.
Biden family a filthy corrupt lot of scum it’s why the feds are protecting them one of their tribe.
“knowledge of the ____last____families business dealings”
Wasn’t Archer thrown under the bus by Hunter? If so, I hope he wants revenge.
Archer: What’s in it for me?
House Committee Republican Attorney: Because it’s the right thing to do. Besides, it’s good for the Country.
Archer: What’s in it for me?
End of negotiations
Heinz is a stepson, but the point still stands. What Heinz has that archer doesn't is protection. He has a thoroughly connected stepdad to make phone calls and all the ketchup money in the world to hire lawyers and pull strings.
Devon Archer on the other hand didn't come from nothing, his name is Devon (not the name a parent in the 1970s to give a child going to public school) he was also Chris Heinz' Yale roommate, so he may come from money... but it's not ketchup money.
He’s talking to a “dish”? No clue what that means, unless he’s literally talking to a dish.
