evidence: A transcript of the interview released the following day by the House Oversight and Accountability and Judiciary committees, which are conducting an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, showed that Hunter Biden commented on numerous aspects of his business activities that Republicans have pointed to as evidence that his father was improperly involved in or benefited from those foreign business deals. [...] Archer, Hunter Biden’s former business partner, testified that after a Burisma board meeting in Dubai in December 2015, Hunter Biden placed a phone call to "D.C." after the Burisma president made an appeal for political help to resolve some problems Burisma was facing at the time. After Archer’s testimony, Reps. Comer and Jordan went on TV and claimed Hunter Biden subsequently called his father, and that several days later, Joe Biden called for the firing of Shokin, Ukraine’s prosecutor general. Comer called it evidence of an illegal "quid pro quo." [...] Hunter Biden acknowledged that he had received money from "a Chinese company," adding that it was "all completely legal" and "incredibly ethical."
