House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has criticized the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) attempt to jail a key witness for Hunter Biden during a Fox Business appearance before testifying before Congress as “strange.” .

Miranda Devine of the New York Post (NYP) reported on Sunday that the Justice Department is trying to adjust the dates for Devon Archer’s appearance and the start of his prison sentence.Politico Confirmed It reports that the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York has sent a letter to Judge Ronnie Abras asking him to arrange a date for Archer’s appearance.

“Have you seen it? Do you often see the Department of Justice send letters like this on Saturdays?” asked Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo.

“Never.

“So what is this letter? I am asking the court to set a .Please elaborate on the content of this letter,” said Bartiromo.

“A letter from the Department of Justice urges a judge to sentence Devon Archer for something unrelated to tomorrow’s story. It’s also strange that it’s right before he’s scheduled to come to give a speech and have a chance to tell the American people the truth about what really happened in Burisma,” said Kammer.

“I mean, I don’t know if this is a coincidence, or if this is another example of the weaponization of the Justice Department. How much effort have you made in coordinating with the Democrats of the Congress to intimidate the witnesses in order to encourage people not to cooperate with our investigation, to encourage the banks not to hand over their bank records, to the Treasury Department. Encouraging access to those suspicious activity reports is very problematic, and I believe this is also against the law.This is obstruction of justice.”

Archer is scheduled to testify on Monday about allegations that President Joe Biden had knowledge and involvement in his son’s business dealings. Archer reportedly testified that Hunter called his father during at least 20 business meetings with foreign officials.
