The president claimed he never discussed matters with his son or his associates, despite Hunter’s abandoned laptop and Devon Archer’s congressional testimony saying otherwise.

Archer said Joe Biden attended two dinner meetings at Cafe Milano in Washington, D.C., along with Hunter’s business partners. A note found on the laptop of a Burisma director thanks Hunter for introducing him to his father at dinner.

Archer also testified that Joe Biden “had coffee” with Jonathan Li, CEO of China-backed BHR Partners where Hunter owned a 10 percent stake.

House Republicans are now closing in on Biden’s impeachment inquiry, having fired subpoenas to Hunter and James and interview requests to about a dozen others.
