Stoppit ! :mad:

Some of us are planning to eat at some point in the future.

vaporware. As expected. I'm curious about how the spygate/Qanon types are going to react to this news.

No "substantive wrongdoing"? But how can that be? According to Dear Leader:

By claiming the report says exactly the opposite of what it says and then claiming the deep state win is only temporary.

You didn't have to go there.

I am curious though, were they barbeque, ranch, or sweet 'n' sour sauces?

Look for a "bombshell" (cough cough) smear attack on Hunter Biden in the next week or so as Trump's Hail Mary. FoxNews is salivating over a story about Giuliani's laywers having "dirt" on him and pushing it hard to their viewership.

Bad link

Why do I get an impression that Trump is the world's biggest "Karen"?

Did they find the dirt next to the WMDs in Iraq or in Al Capone's Vault or in Rachel Maddow's Tax Reveal?

I got a popup saying that if I liked their coverage I should disable my adblocker. Haha, no and no. I'm not a big fan of breathlessly reporting stories that are completely evidence-free and essentially repeating nonsense from their sister rag, The New York Post.

"Hey, there's this broken laptop and somebody says there's a ton of incriminating stuff on it...but nobody's actually seen this incriminating stuff...but WOW!"

Uh...yeah. Sounds like .....

Know thy enemy.

I wouldn't disable either though.

Hey, that's why I clicked. It's impossible to counter fake news without knowing what the fake news is. :)

SO the great Obama conspiracy theory turns out to be crap. What a suprise.

Journalist Judd Legum did an analysis of the NY Post story on his Twitter account.

I was going to copy and paste the text for people who can't access Twitter here, but it's a lot longer than I initially thought it was.

It turns out that the whole "scandal" is based (again) on the completely false idea that Joe Biden was trying to stop the investigation of Bursima.

Giuliani's lawyer says he has hard drive with Hunter Biden texts, emails, videos of 'compromising positions' (fox news)


Compromising positions and the ol' dog ate my harddrive trick.

Notice the sleazy use of language, "No "substantive wrongdoing", instead of saying there wasn't any evidence of wrongdoing?

Is Barr trying to discredit Biden and/or please der Führer, afraid to tell him Obama did no wrong?

What was the language they tried to use to claim Trump's campaign cronies weren't colluding with Russia?

Giuliani is a disgrace. How far he has fallen and he has done it to himself.

To bad the oligarch can't spell.

What, no pee tape?

NY Post comes out with the email claim, Giuliani is behind it. It looks very much like a tabloid story. FaceBook declares it is a bogus story and they are refusing to let it be disseminated on their platform until it is fact checked.

After all the email attacks on Clinton, I don't see this crap going anywhere except within the cult who are already claiming the Deep State is trying to quash the story.

But obviously Trump is going to spew this story all over Twitter and his rallies.

As one person put it. from America's Mayor to Trump's Chump.

Continuing from my post above: Certainly suspect source, a laptop supposedly not retrieved from a repair shop? Who does that?

The claim is the hard drive was turned over to the FBI almost a year ago. Now suddenly in Oct Rudy dumps the story out. :rolleyes:

Sounds more like an October Pile of **** than Surprise.

Utter BS. If there was actual incriminating evidence in the hands of a private citizen, they'd release it. The whole story falls apart when you realize that rich people (Hunter Biden qualifies) don't drop off their malfunctioning computer equipment at random repair shops. They hire someone to come to them and fix the equipment on site.

Tens of thousands of Hunter Bidens emails. That guy writes a lot of emails.

Trump only does ketchup.

Or they buy a new one, and I'm not even close to being rich. My son (31) tells me I'm stuck with built-in obsolescence. In his opinion, just get a new one, they have totally upgraded stuff on them. Same with a phone and a camera (not on the phone). Need a battery, get a new camera. Printer quits working, buy a new one.

When your father is the VP of the US and there are emails between the two of you concerning sensitive government business, not to mention explicit sexual photos, you don't just go off and leave it with some computer store. The whole thing sounds like a contrived pile of horse manure.

Rudy was hanging out in the Ukraine. I'm picturing some guy on the street in a trench coat with a heavy accent saying, "Psst, you want dirt? I got this laptop for sale with a whole lot of dirt. It's broken, but if you get it fixed you won't be disappointed."

:sdl:

You'd probably at least want to recover data from the hard drive (or have it professionally erased) if possible, but that's a while-you-wait sort of operation. Even if you were taking it in, they'd probably say to come back in a couple hours.

Obamagate is the new Pizzagate: everyone who thinks there is something there comes back looking like an idiot.

As Trump goes, so goes Rudy. He know this and he's desperate. He's scraping the bottom of the hard disk, so to speak.

I'm hoping Barr's October Surprise is that he quits and releases a tell-all book about Trump.

Ah, dreams...!

I'd prefer a terse firing via Twitter. Barr deserves to be utterly humiliated.

Mainly about yoga and Chelsea's wedding, probably.

Being found coked to the eyeballs wearing a gimp mask, in the steam room of a "leather" massage parlour.

ETA: Live on Fox News.

My unused and dead computers are just piling up in my garage. :p

Rudy Giuliani today on Steve Bannon's radio show –

Sounds like Giuliani is going to do a slow burn on releasing what was found on Biden's hard drive a la Project Veritas over the next several days.

I think I'm going to take a vacation just so I have time to watch the loony left's meltdown this week! It's gonna be so much fun!
