All last weekend Republicans were hyping themselves up for the testimony of Devon Archer before the House Oversight Committee. Archer was Hunter Biden’s former business partner and Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) was certain that Archer was the glue that was going to stick all of the pieces of his Biden family bribery allegation together.
Fox News and Newsmax went into overdrive focusing on Archer. Republicans and conservative media went into breathless hysterics over a weekend letter from the DOJ letting convicted felon Archer know that since he lost his appeal, it was time to report to prison for his year-and-a-day sentence for fraud. Conservatives claimed that this was Biden trying to lock Archer up before he could testify.
It didn’t matter that Archer’s lawyer put out a statement debunking the conservative claims of Biden interference, Republicans knew that Archer’s testimony was going to be big, so big that Biden was trying to silence him.
Devon Archer’s testimony was big, just not in the way that Republicans were expecting.
