Trump commutes sentence of Jason Galanis — second ex-Hunter Biden business partner to receive clemency

President Trump on Friday commuted the sentence of another ex-Hunter Biden business associate, Jason Galanis, for defrauding an American Indian tribe.

Trump’s order signed March 28 authorized US Bureau of Prisons acting director William Lothrop “to immediately release” the federal inmate.

Galanis had been serving a 14-year federal prison sentence — but cooperated briefly last year with House Republican investigators who were looking into his dealings with the president’s son.

He pleaded guilty to a multi-million dollar scheme to sell bogus tribal bonds and was sentenced to 189 months in prison in September 2020.

The commutation follows a full pardon from Trump last week for ex-Hunter Biden business partner Devon Archer, who was also convicted for swindling the Oglala Sioux tribe in South Dakota.
