If the FBI has the laptop, what's the story on it contents? Does a copy exist?

Looks like GOP propagandists are trying to squeeze some blood out of the corpse of a failed disinfo campaign. It's midterm year, so expect more of the same.

If the laptop is Hunter Biden's (as the Times is now confirming) then there are certainly some interesting questions to be asked about the identity of "the big guy" who was supposed to get 10%.

I have a hard time seeing any other interpretation. Let's remember the laptop story was so explosive that the media buried it and Twitter blocked the NY Post from its account, despite the fact that nobody in the Biden camp ever denied that it was in fact Hunter's laptop. They even rounded up a bunch of "intelligence professionals" to sign a letter saying the laptop story was classic Russian disinformation. And now, some 16 months after the election, suddenly the Times gets interested in the laptop story?

The problem here is the chain of custody and lack of any control over faking the evidence.
In addition, there is not only no corroborating evidence, there is the opposite, evidence Hunter exerted no influence over his father's political actions. At most Hunter misled people who put him on their payroll/boards. Obama said it looked bad, that was about it. |

Hilarious.
In one corner we have the worst president in the history of the country. Tried to steal an election, supported a coup attempt, has no brain, surrounds himself with criminals. Dumb ones, at that. In the other corner we have Biden. Something about a laptop, and Hunter did something or other. I don't give a ****. Biden was the man that dethroned Trump, and if that's all it turns out that he's good for, I am 100% fine with that. I don't give a **** about the laptop. There is no argument to be made against Biden when the alternative was the disaster that is Trump. When people attack Biden like this as some of the braindead dorks in this forum do, I think to myself that they must like Trump better. How is that possible? Hate Biden, sure, be conservative, but gawdamn if you still carry a torch for Trump you're _________ (fill in the blank, I already got a warning) |

What is the story here?
Didn't we already know the FBI have a laptop? We haven't had any more news on whatever is supposed to be on it |

The Washington Post runs with a story about millions of dollars going from a Chinese company to accounts controlled by Hunter Biden:

Why on Joe Biden? Did any of these show Pres. Biden was involved? The article doesn't say so. In fact it says "The Post did not find evidence that Joe Biden personally benefited from or knew details about the transactions with CEFC, which took place after he had left the vice presidency and before he announced his intentions to run for the White House in 2020."
From the article, it was James and Hunter Biden who were involved with this. Even then, there was no claim that either had done anything illegal. |

If people take off the CNN rose colored glasses, they will see that Biden and Hunter are far more corrupt than anything Trump did. If that laptop belonged to Donald Trump jr. would the mainstream news call it "Russian disinformation" or would it be on CNN and MSN, ABC, CBS and NBC 24/7?
Trump might be corrupt, but he made his money before entering politics while Biden and son made their money because they were in politics. Well, Hunter used Joke Biden to make his money. That much is clear. And Joke lied about not knowing about it, |

Yeah, there should be a rule in politics that unless you do more than the proforma support to your political family member, you're off limits. I've said the most awful things imaginable about Trump's nits who grew into lice. But I've never said anything about Tiffany and certainly not about Barron. The three oldest and the Kushner boy became part of Trump's political machine and are fair game. Hunter isn't really involved in his dad's political operation and should be left alone.

No Proof the Laptop isn't just another Russian Fakes using some Real Emails from servers that were already known to be hacked long ago.
You have to prove more than just a couple of Emails when dealing with a Russian Disinformation campaign. This could simply be another salted well. |

MIGHT be? ROTFLMAO!! I hate to burst your bubble, but everything on that laptop related to Hunter's dealings with China happened after Joe left the office of VP and before he ran for POTUS in 2020. "The Post did not find evidence that Joe Biden personally benefited from or knew details about the transactions with CEFC, which took place after he had left the vice presidency and before he announced his intentions to run for the White House in 2020." Yeah, Trump hasn't made any money from being in politics:

Yeah, so tell us all again how Trump didn't make money off politics. Pull the other one , Joe. It's got bells on. |

If there is a laptop and there is an email in, that does not prove that the words in the email have any truth to them. You can't take an email to court. You need a paper trail to prove any $$ moved to Biden. Plus, it is all Hunter Biden. There is no proof of daddy Biden anywhere.
The conspiracy theory remains a conspiracy theory. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biden%...spiracy_theory |
