Who accepts something for repair without information on who the damn customer is? This is certainly looking like some shady business.

why don't you check out the author?

What am I making up? I’d like to see a quote of my post doing so, please.

There couldn’t have been any contact details left, because imaginary people can’t leave contact details when they don’t leave imaginary laptops without imaginary stickers on with a man with an imaginary medical condition.

I don't have to prove that the dragon in my garage that doesn't exist also doesn't have a hangnail.

Unless there is another quote from that author saying that no contact details were left, I don't see that they can be the source for the claim on this thread that "no contact details were left".

I love to see the double standard here compared to coverage of the fraudulent Steele report.

Get a new tune. Your Whataboutism has been through re-recordings, remixes, Kid Bopping, Karaoke, MIDI files, covers, and Muzak and still the same crappy song it was when you first sang it.

So why are you so scared to check?

The clue is in the name.

"Why are our lies held to different standards than their truths? Such an unfair, biased double standard!"

We are getting it from the guy who runs the shop. He has stated that he isn't 100 percent sure that it was Hunter Biden who dropped off the laptop but assumed that the laptop was Hunter Biden's because it had a Beau Biden Foundation sticker on it.

Which leads to the next problem with the story: the guy claims that he has such poor vision that he can't recognize people but he can see the tiny screws in a laptop computer.

This is like Watergate but if Nixon had left the tapes in his jacket pocket for dry cleaning except the tapes were just found in a random jacket pocket with "Nixon '76" pin on the lapel so they assumed they had to be Nixon's jacket oh and the tapes also didn't really exist.

Fox News portrayed it as one of the biggest scandals in American history. Then it fell apart

CNN: https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/14/media...ate/index.html

Looks like the Republicans are learning too late they needed a new "But her E-mails" / "He wasn't Born Here" scandal.

Based on your gullibility regarding this story, I assume you’ll be vacationing on that nice piece of swampland in Florida someone sold you.

A comparison was made to Project Veritas, so maybe it was meant as a subtle way of saying "Yes, I know this is a complete fabrication, like everything Project Veritas has released."

I suppose he could just be incredibly short-sighted :confused:

Not at all. He's going to that beautiful old suspension bridge he bought, that spans the East River in New York City.

Another problem with the Hunter Biden laptop story: Hunter Biden was living in California at the time when the laptop was supposedly left at a repair shop in Delaware.

It's starting to look a lot like "He wasn't born here.", in that it's completely fabricated and won't stand even a cursory examination of the facts. Of course Fox News and Trump cult members will eat it up, but it's not likely to sway many people on the fense (if there are any left).

What better way to cover your tracks than to travel clear across country to get three of your laptops fixed. :rolleyes:

Hey, that's small-time stuff for a wealthy young man to do in the 2010s, compared to how much trouble the pregnant Ann Dunham had to go through to fly to Kenya to give birth in 1961.

I'm not in the computer repair business, but I'm guessing that their business model does not depend on millionaires drippong off multiple laptops for repair.

Pretty hard to make any sense of the story except it's an attention getting fake and Rudy was desperate to find something.

I see they are trying everything they can to go after Hunter and connect the dots to Biden. After this fake, I think it makes it harder to sell any other stories.

Why isn't simply being laughed out of court ?

Why isn't Rudy Giuliani being mocked on all channels for promoting this ridiculous nonsense ?

Why aren't any prominent Republicans willing to break rank ?

...and yet serious news agencies are reporting on it seriously rather than just mocking him ?

Oh for pity's sake! The story is as fake as trying to pass off Monopoly money as real money.

Instead of trying to shoe-horn little bits of the story into a real Oct surprise, read the actual story with lots of bits of information that I linked to above. There are dozens of things wrong with the story including some vague medical issue that prevents him from knowing any information about who dropped the laptop off to his changing the story multiple times.

O'Keefe is probably jealous.

Are you serious?

Maybe you also need to read the actual links instead of making excuses like these up.

YES!!! THAT'S IT!!! What a brilliant plan: Travel cross-country to drop off a laptop at a repair shop, don't tell the shop who you are and make sure that the owner has bad eyesight and can't recognize you, and don't ever retrieve the laptop with the expectation that the repair shop will wipe everything from the disk and sell the laptop to someone who lives 3,000 miles from you so that all traces of a secret meeting with a Ukrainian businessman will vanish forever.

Sounds like a near perfect plan which would have worked had it not been for one alert patriot.

Well, they were intensely jealous of Bush's plot to destroy paper records by flying two planes into the WTC towers, so they'd have an excuse to demolish a third building blocks away, hours later.

That's proof enough. Surely only one such sticker was ever made, and doubtless it was given to Hunter, who'd never have passed it on to someone else.

Board members and millionaires do like to put stickers on their laptops just like teenagers right?

Near sighted. And short-sighted.

After they go through all those emails and other data on the laptop, I hope they find the location of the Unicorn Farm in the Ukraine that has Clinton's email server.

I think Giuliani's being played like the desperate gullible idiot he is:

Hmm tough call, is this incompetence and gullibility or getting good dirt from a loyal friend and simply not caring that it is fabricated?

Neither. He knows it's BS and he doesn't care.

And that is different from simply not caring it is fabricated how?

All I was saying is that the "loyal friend" part doesn't matter a bit. If a rando walked up to him in the street with the same story, he'd have no shame about portraying it in the media as truth.

I definitely could have phrased it better instead of allowing for the inference that I was being dismissive.

And my point is that he has a good history with being in bed with russian interests, not that they somehow took advantage of him. He knew it was crap but maybe he thought it would hang together a bit longer than it has.

Has this actually gotten to the point where the courts (or even law enforcement/FBI/etc) would even be involved?

Well if you are a republican congress-critters and say "this is foolish" you would probably be seen by the MAGAchuds as pro-biden, regardless of the number of times you kissed Trump's ass. The only thing you can do is stay silent and hope nobody asks about it.

I may be prescient.

Nah, TDS sufferers are very predictable.

This just reeks of Russia for all the reasons mentioned in the article. I also find the timeline interesting.

Although Isaac claims he received the computer in April 2019, what proof is there that he did? According to TellyKNeasuss, Hunter B was living in CA at that time. Isaac says he contacted an intermediary in September, 2019 who then contacted the FBI which then "made a forensic copy of the laptop, then returned weeks later with a subpoena and confiscated it."

Pelosi began the impeachment inquiry against Trump in September 2019.

So the FBI had the computer during the impeachment trial. Did they not examine the authenticity of the emails? If this was such a 'smoking gun' regarding H.B and Burisma why did we not hear of it during the impeachment?

DEEP STATE!!!

Is any of the supposed content of this hard disk NOT available somewhere publicly? Also, is any of the juicy email stuff proven to have been written at the time claimed, and not concocted using Notepad (or whatever) at any other time?

It would take me all of 5 minutes to take the text of an existing email and bodge it up to look like something extremely tempting to halfwit Rudi. So I would imagine it would take a Ukrainian or Russian team of computer experts no time and very little effort to make a whole bunch more, plus fill a hard disk full of a collected library of readily-available videos, etc. A training exercise for one of their beginner provocateurs, no doubt.

I think I can hear the chuckles with a Russian accent from here. ;)

We may find out.

I think JoeMorgue covered this story (sufficiently IMO) yesterday.

This really does prove how badly primed right-wingers are for news about e-mails. It gives them an erection so fast that what little blood supply their brain was receiving completely dries up.

It does make you wonder: if they think everyone else’s emails are so exciting and must be incriminating in some way, what do they have in theirs?

My poor wording :o

I was using the phrase idiomatically, rather than literally:
