A year ago, I experienced a moment of heart-stopping beauty in the middle of a war. It happened in the House of Scientists in Odesa, built as a stately home by the Tolstoy family in the early 19th century. I had visited many more famous palaces, but few lovelier ones.

Gilded mirrors, inlaid walnut, silk upholstery, gleaming chandeliers, a parquet floor made with 22 varieties of oak — all these surfaces gleaming, as in some Dutch Golden Age painting, with truer-than-life intensity. In one room, a music professor was playing Chopin on a grand piano that had belonged to Franz Liszt, and I felt tears pricking at my eyes.

Joe Biden's Justice Department is currently racing to jail former Hunter Biden associate Devon Archer before he testifies in front of the House Oversight Committee about the president's alleged complicity in his son's overseas business activities. But before Democrats try to discredit Archer, they ought to listen to the ringing endorsements of the private equity manager — namely, the extensive praise from Hunter himself.
