From Wall Street to Washington: The Truth They Tried to Silence.
Financier. Congressional witness. Cited 110+ times in the Biden impeachment inquiry. Commuted by President Trump. Now speaking freely — in his own words.
Jason Galanis spent his career building financial institutions — from distressed debt operations employing 250 people in Sioux Falls to acquiring iBill (PayPal's original payment processor), to building a $6.4 billion European life insurance company. At the peak: $17 billion in audited assets and a partnership with one of the most powerful political families in America.
That partnership — with Hunter Biden and Devon Archer around the historic Burnham & Company brand — brought him inside one of the most consequential investigations in modern congressional history. From a federal prison cell, he told Congress the truth. Under oath. On camera. 110+ citations in the official impeachment record.
On March 28, 2025, President Trump signed a clemency warrant: time served, no restitution, no conditions.
“Jason Galanis's sworn testimony pulled back the curtain on corruption at the highest levels of government. His detailed account of the Biden family's business dealings was so significant that Congress cited it more than one hundred times in the official impeachment inquiry report. Galanis connected the dots — showing how influence, money, and political power were intertwined — and forced Washington to confront evidence it could no longer ignore.”
— Chairman James Comer, House Oversight and Accountability Committee
“Our goal — that is, Hunter Biden, Devon Archer, and myself — was to make billions, not millions. The entire value add of Hunter Biden to our business was his family name and his access to his father, the Vice President.”
— Jason Galanis, Congressional Testimony, February 23, 2024
