Devon Archer’s attorney said there isn't enough time for his client to prepare for Wednesday's hearing before two Republican-led House committees.

Devon Archer, a former business associate of Hunter Biden and a key witness in the GOP impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, has declined an invitation to appear at a public hearing Wednesday before a pair of Republican-led House panels.

Archer’s attorney Matthew Schwartz said Monday that there is not enough time for his client to prepare for the high-profile public hearing held by the House Oversight and Judiciary committees, according to a copy of a letter addressed to House Oversight counsel that was obtained by NBC News.

So.. Biden's son used "do you know who my daddy is?" To try and further his business, the president never had any role in the business, and that's enough for Republicans to m impeach him?

Where were they when Trump kept using his businesses, still owned by him, to directly make money while he was president?
