I haven't seen anyone in a position to know describe the pictures as actually pornographic. Do you have a source for that, or is that just someone's assumption?

Although I think it's a bit weird to think out of everything he's said about the matter that Giuliani would be lying about that, but he has described him as having numerous sexually inappropriate pictures of underage girls.

There's a lot which is inappropriate but not actually pornographic. For example, I would describe a 50 year old man french kissing a 14 year old girl as sexually inappropriate, but not pornographic. I don't really want to know the details of these photos, but which side of the line they fall on depends on those details.

Well he turned it over to the police for it so that's generally described as child pornography. Whether or not certain types of child pornography are or are not actually pornographic is more thought that I'm comfortable giving the topic of child pornography.

Not necessarily. There's a possible child endangerment angle that the police would have reason to investigate even absent pornography.

dirtywick 22nd October 2020 11:39 PM

Sexually inappropriate photographs endangering children of a non pornographic variety? I don't want to figure out what that means I'm sorry. I'd rather just say you win than try

Given that this is Hunter Biden we’re talking about, drug use may be involved as well.

You assume that the FBI would raid Biden's house and arrest him at some point over the past 10 months it if it were illegal. The FBI has more to do in such an investigation. You have no clue what is in the 25,000 emails, neither do I. Therefore, I'm not putting a time limit on it. If there were crimes, it wouldn't just be Biden the FBI was investigating, and there isn't a clock ticking regardless of them receiving the laptop 10 months ago.
I just like the assumption you are making that whatever is in those documents it only makes things worse for the Bidens.

There was a clock ticking, but then we all voted. Now the investigation is moot because the one Biden will have the power to pardon the rest and presidential immunity. Have your learned nothing from how Trump collared Barr and the DOJ?

Clear documentary evidence of "wrongdoing" followed by months of inaction. There are no zebras coming to Trump's rescue on this one.

If you ignore that the FBI has had all this information for months and hasn't been able to draw the same conclusions you have from just the bits leaked by Rudy, then it all makes total sense.

People who rely on Rudy sort of deserve to be punked by Rudy. Sorry, that may be cruel but I feel it bears mentioning at this point.

Next year I expect a two hour special on the History channel that will somehow further link this to Nazi gold.

Maybe the full Senate should spend all of next week on this super serious topic. I could go for that.

You found a picture of an admitted drug addict doing drugs? I heard that was nearly impossible because drug addicts are know to be super careful people.

I Am The Scum 23rd October 2020 08:12 AM

Interesting analysis from a reporter who looked through all of Bobabooey's e-mails.
Quote:

I completed searching all of Tony Bobulinski’s emails. They establish:
•the “Chairman” is China.
• NO ROLE for Joe Biden in emails/docs
• Tony Bobulinski states himself there are NO OTHER MEMBERS besides Hunter Biden, Jim Biden, Rob Walker, James Gillar, and Bobulinski
You win a gold star if you guess which network she works for.

Nope, you still miss the point of the post. It's rather odd since it would help the "nothingburger" side. And it's been repeatedly handed on a silver platter.

This outstanding thread inspires me to bask in the tweets, now deleted, from the pop singer who was purportedly banging DJTJ (a mark against her credibility) in which she said DJTJ hates daddy, Eric and wife engaged in kinky 3 way stuff, Baron is a monster like the kid in The Omen, and Ivanka is confused about her sexual orientation.

Even if the photos exist, it could depend on the context. I remember years ago several newspapers and magazines were throwing a fit because major bookstores like Barnes & Noble were stocking books in their Art & Photography section by some photographer who photographed naturist families, including their children. That was ruled to not be pornography.
Yes, I realize that if the photos exist, they're unlikely to be art photos. But the "if" is the important part first. One of my college professors used to say "If my aunt had wheels, she'd be a teacart."

When I was 14 I posed for a boyfriend who was taking an art class. The photos weren't erotic. This is a useless anecdote, except that I can attest that it does happen.

There were no laptops in those days, but if there had been, I don't think he would have titled them "my 14-year-old girlfriend nude."

I wonder how many computer-killing liquid spills involve precious bodily fluids ... I know, ew.

He canceled his meeting with Johnson, allegedly because the FBI wants to talk to him.

God what a sleaze Johnson is. He was the one cooking up a pedophile angle with Maria Bartiroma in a Fox clip you posted.

Jake Tapper and Christiana Amanpour claimed on air there was no evidence of wrongdoing by Hunter Biden and mentioned Steve Bannon by name.

Bannon offered an invitation for the two of them to come down the street to the "Warm Room" and he would show them what he has. He even offered to take the hard drive contents to CNN so they could have a look.

No doubt they are arranging the meeting now. <––––sarcasm
