He knew exactly who his son was getting those millions and millions of dollars of wires from, he spoke to them, and he spoke to them often,\u201d Chairman Comer said during the interview.\n\nDevon Archer\u2019s testimony confirms that Joe Biden lied to the American people when he said he had no knowledge about his son\u2019s business dealings.\n\n\u201cEvery day this bribery scandal becomes more credible. I mean look at what Devon Archer testified today. [Archer] said that Joe Biden was on the phone over 20 times with people, talking about whatever, even though the president denied that he never spoke to any of these people.\n\n\u201cHe also said that Hunter Biden was under immense pressure while they both served on the Burisma board to call Washington, D.C. immediately and try to get Shokin fired. That's the Ukrainian prosecutor. Not many days later, Joe Biden traveled to Ukraine, and we've all seen the video where Joe Biden brags about withholding foreign aid to Ukraine in exchange for the Ukrainian president firing the prosecutor who was investigating his son\u2019s corrupt energy company.\u201d\n\nDevon Archer also testified that the value of adding Hunter Biden to Burisma\u2019s board was \u201cthe brand\u201d and confirmed that then-Vice President Joe Biden was \u201cthe brand.\u201d\n\n\u201cWell, Devon Archer testified that they were influence peddling. We\u2019ve wondered what the business was. I suspected it was influence peddling. But we heard today from someone on the inside, it was influence peddling. They sold Joe Biden. That's what the business was. Joe Biden himself talked to every single person that has wired money to the Bidens.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T00:30:18Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://comer.house.gov/2023/8/icymi-comer-on-hannity-archer-confirms-joe-biden-lied-when-he-denied-knowledge-of-hunter-biden-business-dealings"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.3809448573738337, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
