DC:
Participants in a multi-million dollar scheme to defraud an American Indian tribe touted links to Hunter Biden and his business associate, Devon Archer, according to court documents the Daily Caller News Foundation reviewed.
Biden is not accused of wrongdoing in the case, which centered on a fraudulent $60 million bond offering involving the Wakpamni Lake Community Association, an affiliate of the Oglala Sioux Tribe. But the documents, reported here for the first time, shed light on how associates saw Biden during a period when his father, Joe Biden, served as vice president.
“Hunter Biden works for [Archer]. So we’ve got the top level politicos with us. All of my guys, is as top tier as it gets,” Bevan Cooney, who a jury convicted in the Wakpamni scam, said in a secretly recorded phone call that is cited in exhibits that Archer’s defense team produced during an appeal of his conviction in the case.
“Well, you know — but you see that this is who we’re doing business with? You don’t get more politically connected and make people more comfortable than that,” Cooney also said in the phone conversation.
Cooney, who a judge sentenced to 30 months in prison on July 31, was a close associate of Jason Galanis, who prosecutors described as the “mastermind” of the bond ripoff. Cooney also bragged about knowing Archer for years. read more
Obama built that.
Joe was playing his part as suck up & useful idiot.
Name-Dropper Syndrome…no wonder Leftists can’t heal.
“Sure you can trust the government” just ask a taxpayer…
This is thieves swindling other thieves. Millions of federal dollars are poured into these tribal councils who in turn squander the money and the indians remain in poverty.
The depth of corruption is astounding. In recent decades the gambling industry has added to the money laundering.
When the baking is done to the turdcake that is the Biden’s, there will be no place to put a “cherry”. Maybe a piece of corn or a peanut.
Looking at the two in that pic reminds me of the Godfather. One notorious leader of the mob died in prison yesterday (?) – he was 90. I hope neither of those two Biden’s reach that age. One is a druggie and the other stroked out a while back. Tick tock.
Didn’t Jack Abramoff go to jail for swindling indians a few years ago?
