The Third Man: Live At 5pm EST Today
Tune in later for my live video chat with Devon Archer about Hunter Biden And Betrayal
You’ll recall I told you that a couple weeks ago I finally met Hunter Biden’s one time best-friend and business partner, Devon Archer aka “The Third Man” of a Yale/Yale law school trio: Archer, Biden and John Kerry’s step son, Chris Heinz. And how I’d long been fascinated to know Archer’s back story. Fascinated to enough to write and pitch a book proposal about him entitled “The Third Man”.
Archer, 50, was the brains behind the foreign business deals that Hunter Biden benefitted from…and, it was Archer, who later testified to Congress that he was in the room when Hunter put his father on speaker to help sell the Biden “brand” to an assortment of foreigners, including Russians, Ukrainians and the Chinese.
A reminder of what I wrote the other day:
But the Bidens “disappeared” on Archer when he was charged with securities fraud in 2016 when he was acting as the chairman of a company, that Hunter Biden was the vice chair of.
In 2018 a jury found him guilty, even though he argued that he had been deceived by a partner. The judge ordered a retrial, citing concerns “that Archer lacked the requisite intent and is thus innocent of the crimes charged in this indictment.” One month before the 2020 election an appeals court reversed the decision.
Just months after the 2020 election Archer co-operated with prosecutors looking into Hunter Biden’s tax and financial records. And in 2023 he delivered his Congressional testimony.
Today he’s going to share some of the remarkable story of friendship, betrayal - and redemption.
He was due to serve a prison sentence for a year and a day when, a few weeks ago, on March 21st President Trump dramatically called him over at the NCAA Wrestling National Championships in Philadelphia and told him he was going to issue him a pardon. He officially pardoned him on March 25th.
Archer is now a full-blown MAGA convert.
Tune in at 5pm EST to hear Devon Archer tell us in his own words, the story of The Third Man.
