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.
Hunter Biden and Archer reportedly met with Baturina after that Feb. 14, 2014, transfer — in April 2014 at Lake Como in Italy.

Baturina was invited to and according to an eyewitness attended an April 16, 2015, dinner at Washington's Cafe Milano restaurant with Vice President Biden.
That dinner also included Burisma executive Vadym Pozharskyi, according to his thank-you email to Hunter the next day, and a trio of Kazakhstani business reps, two of whom posed for a photo with the Bidens.
In an email at the time to a different associate, Hunter wrote that the meal would be "ostensibly" about his role as chairman of the World Food Program USA.
Baturina and another Russian billionaire with whom Hunter Biden shopped properties, Vladimir Yevtushenkov, remain unsanctioned by President Biden amid Russia's more than year-old invasion of Ukraine.

And the plot thickens..............we shall see if the taped conversations are needed................
Ummm … some form of evidence would still be needed. Otherwise they’d just ask you for your hearsay, which I’m sure you’d be thrilled to provide.
So suddenly evidence is required?
that really only depends if the alleged perp is a right wing conservative.
That is why this is FINALLY being investigated.
Don't you just love the hypocrisy.
What taped conversations?
You mean the taped conversations that nobody has ever heard?
This 3 year long propaganda attempt is nothing but fugazi.
Why were foreign entities paying Joe Biden's minor grandchild?
Well, isn't she an energy expert like the rest of the family?
There is no evidence of that just like there are no recordings and without serious blackmail will likely be no convincing testimony from the criminal Archer. No matter how much a desperate GOP wants to find any kind of dirt they possibly can. After 3 years of trying, no joy for them.
The Biden's taxes are public going back at least 20 years. It is ludicrous to claim that the six term US Senator, two term Vice President and current President of the United States of America has been illicitly profiting from foreign bribes and filing false tax returns without proof...
There is none! Nada! Zip! Zero! Nothing!
No doubt, claims without proof are ludicrous.... I mean who could think that someone entrenched in the Federal government for that long might be illicitley profiting?....
Prove It!
Prove what?
That the President filed false tax returns.
Prove It. That is what you accuse him of.
Prove that Joe Biden cheated on taxes...
Prove he illegally profited or didn't report!
It was an insurance policy, remember? I'd say that Joe Biden has played nice with Ukraine. There was never a need to expose the tapes.
Now we have heard of them. The FBI knew for years. Notice there was no leaks on this information.
We are trying to get the evidence. Why are you so against that?
LMAO! As if Joe Biden is going to report bribes and influence peddling in his taxes!

Then why has Trump never released his taxes filings? Oh wait, he’s under an audit and promises to do so as soon as the eternal audit concludes. In the meantime let’s focus on Biden scandals made up from whole cloth.
Because it involves evidence against the Biden's plain and simple.
Because no politician has ever lied on their taxes./S
Because the IRS is an arm of the Democrat party.
Why do the Bidens need so many shell companies to funnel money through if they are on the up and up?
Guess all of the those flagged electronic bank funds heading to those shell corporations are nothing as well?
Pretend Brandon is Trump. Democrats would already have the impeachment papers filed- and the damning leaks from the FBI and DOJ would be constant.
The scandals are only made up in leftists' minds.
TDS it seems can be applied to anything.
Trump is a private citizen and you have no right to see other people's tax returns.
Desperation must be setting in if we are deflecting to trumps taxes.
OF course there is. It's been linked to numerous times on this site. You need better news sources.
If the money goes to his family members, why would it show up on Joe Bidens's taxes?
It is clearly front page news. One the ways in which we know that is by noting the fake news outlets ignoring it.
A few days ago, left wing channels (in < one week) = 291 minutes Trump "scandals", 0 minutes Bidens.
“A few days ago, left wing channels (in < one week) = 291 minutes Trump "scandals", 0 minutes Bidens.”
Well thank goodness we have y’all so diligent in balancing the scales of perceived injustice.
I prefer to read and watch all sides before making decisions. If you've never tried, I recommend that you do.
“I prefer to read and watch all sides before making decisions. If you've never tried, I recommend that you do.”
Agree wholeheartedly with the first sentence. Have no idea why the second is in any way relevant.
Hunter Biden's Convicted Former Business Partner May Testify Against Him
Corroboration
This must be totally fake because Joe has repeatedly assured us that he NEVER spoke about any of Hunters business deals
And you when someone tells you they are honest, they are. It's the people who tell you how honest they are that never lie. Like Nixon telling the country he wasn't a crook.
Just like his granddaughter in Arkansas. He never acknowledges that “business deal” by Hunter. At least not until she is old enough to shower with like Ashley.
Oh, you mean like this? Devon Archer is far left in the photo.
Sure sounds like Archer will swear to whatever the GOP wants him to.
Wonder what blackmail the GOP has hanging over this serial conman's head.
This will blow up just like all other far right attempts to frame the Bidens have.
Even the author of this hit piece sounds like he doesn't believe any of it.
Exactly,
The millions that flowed to Hunter Biden, uncle James and brother Beau’s widow Hallie, were all legitimate business transactions for the in-depth analysis that the Bidens could provide. Instead of offshoring work, they brought money into our country.
ed to Hunter Biden, uncle James and brother Beau’s widow Hallie, were all legitimate business transactions for the in-depth analysis that the Bidens could provide.
Not to mention a grandchild. Perfectly normal stuff that in no way is out of the ordinary.
Lol, yes, as Sean Hannity calls him every night "zero experience Hunter Biden." The man everyone wants to hire and give millions to.
Exactly what other "frame attempts" are you speaking of?
The Gouliani lies and missing whistleblower and missing tapes that have been recycled for the past three years in an ongoing anti Biden fantasy.
This is not just a dropped M&M that far right wing propagandists can just pick up off the floor, wipe off and pretend it was never dropped in the first place.
This particular piece of shit propaganda has been debunked soooo many times by soooo many intelligence agencies that I'd be embarrassed to keep bringing it up were I a far right winger.
Of course far right wingers don't seem to have any sense of shame or history.
Amazing how virtually EVERY liberal here magically can't remember that the Biden Family took in millions for nothing.
Or so the 'story' goes with them.
Remember what? That the gop has made wild unfounded accusations without a shred of evidence regarding unnamed "Biden Family" members receiving unspecified income from unspecified foreign businesses for unspecified reasons with no proof and no witnesses that the gop can produce? Get Outta Here!
It seems like it's now $20-30 Mil. Last week, it was "only" $5 Mil each for Hunter and The Big Guy.
They remember it all right, however it is just too inconvenient to mention.
ffs the post clearly states what liberals are forgetting.
you can deny but I will believe the bank records showing the Biden family profited off foreigners.
OK. Cite those sooooooooooo many agencies that have debunked it sooooooooooo many times.
Keep in mind Bill Barr himself said he passed the info on to an investigator and no decision has come of that since it is part of the Hunter federal investigation.
The headline on this article was changed from the original
The word "alleged" disappeared.
So what?
Does anyone besides you even care about a missing word in a headline?
The headline was doctored.
I think it is a problem with "Fetch Seed." We have had them before.
No John. We have had the problem before with fetching an article.
Bullshit.
Your article/seed history is empty (which indicates you haven't written or posted any articles), so how would you know that fetching article problems are bullshit?
Thread @5 locked for meta, and the seed's title has been changed to match that of the article.
I’m sure there is nothing to see here, I mean why else would Hunters financial disclosures be heavily redacted in his child support case in Arkansas. Why would you do that if you had nothing to hide?
“Why would you do that if you had nothing to hide?”
If only we could apply such reasoning across the board.
Show where i haven't, i'll wait.
