Trump pardons Devon Archer, former Hunter Biden business associate [View all]

Source: USA Today

WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump pardoned Devon Archer, a former business associate of Hunter Biden, the former president’s son, for his conviction for committing fraud against a Native American tribe involving more than $60 million in bonds.

Trump said he had heard from “many people” that Archer was treated unfairly because he became a witness for congressional Republicans who were investigating possible corruption of former President Joe Biden and his son Hunter through the son’s business deals.

“They think he was treated very unfairly,” Trump said of his advisers. “He was a victim of a crime, as far I’m concerned. So we’re going to undo that.”

“Congratulations, Devon,” Trump said, holding the paperwork aloft after signing it at the White House.
