The hard drive obtained by CBS for analysis was given to them by the shop owner who claimed it was a clean copy...lol (how many does he have). So his say so only. The forensic investigators a father and son duo did an interview with CBS. They mention nothing about checking sources/header metdata/ip's etc. They do say there was a huge volume of emails and stuff. When asked about possibly added folders, they said we don't see that, "possibly because we have a more pristine copy"...lol Its stuff that would not stand up in court for more than a few minutes before being shredded by a real forensic analysis such as the one carried out by the Washington Post The 5 min video is on twitter here https://twitter.com/ClayTravis/status/1594701364969590785 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaibeachlovers Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 17 hours ago, SunnyinBangrak said: stop with the disinformation please. Chain of custody is JPMcIsaac to the FBI directly. "According to Isaac’s account, the FBI first made a forensic copy of the laptop, then returned weeks later with a subpoena and confiscated it. When he stopped hearing from the FBI, Isaac said he contacted several members of Congress, who did not respond. At that point, his intermediary reached out to Rudy Giuliani’s attorney, Robert Costello." https://www.foxnews.com/politics/hunter-biden-emails-computer-repair-store-owner-john-paul-mac-isaac That's interesting, and if true puts a somewhat large question mark against the FBI's impartiality. Personally, I always had doubts about the leadership of the FBI re political allegiance, going back to the days of the previous POTUS. Hopefully if there is a problem, the house investigation will reveal it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want payback because they are happy when the country is in a mess. The previous administration was a mess--toxic in every aspect. They were authoritarian and the only hold on power was to blame others in a sort of I am better because they are so much worse. They acknowledged few of the problems, if they did, they blamed Democrats. It worked for a while, but it isn't working anymore. We arguably made it through a pandemic and faced big problems, which the current administration has carefully and successfully ushered us through. We had a contentious midterm election in which all those problems were highlighted, but at no time did they offer any solutions. They said they would stop inflation, but no indication of how. They would lower gas prices, but again, no indication of how. Climate Change was completely off-limits with them, even though the California Central Valley and SW US are in a 1200-year drought and account for a HUGE amount of the food that feeds the nation. Even their big, scary border issued was featured with an ad showing people crawling over Trump's big, beautiful wall!! Now, they grasp at straws. They make stuff up, and follow conspiracies. Hunter's laptop will figure prominently, but I highly doubt they are going to find anything connecting him to any business or financial transactions with his father. Joe Biden has been around too long to ever fall for something so fool hearty. Rest assured, however, they will Benghazi his laptop to death. Why?

Exactly, the GOP has been trying for years to push false equivalencies, on order to claim that what happened to Trump were witchhunts and nothing burgers, that the Dems are equally corrupt, etc... The problem is that Biden's campaign did not meet with foreign operatives, that Biden did not commit an abuse of power by pressuring a foreign leader in order to try to discredit his main opponent, that Biden published his tax returns and did not try to fraud tax, that Biden did not illegally hold classified documents after he left, that Biden did not try to overturn elections and assault the Capitol, etc...

Pathetic..... quote "The problem is that Biden's campaign did not meet with foreign operatives, that Biden did not commit an abuse of power by pressuring a foreign leader in order to try to discredit his main opponent" demonstrably false - in fact your whole post has no bearing on reality, but I''ll just fact check your statement here as left wing msm did cover it so I can provide a link. Biden pressured a foreign sovereign nation to delay an oil price hike until AFTER the midterms. No reason whatsoever to do this other than to gain political points. "The Biden administration asked Saudi Arabia, the de-facto leader of oil producer group OPEC, to delay its decision on oil output by a month, the kingdom said in a statement. Notably, Biden’s request would have delayed the decision until after the U.S. midterm elections." https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/13/biden-admin-asked-saudi-arabia-to-postpone-opec-cut-by-a-month-saudis-say.html and then to make the scandal much worse the then threatened consequences for Saudi not doing what Biden wanted "President Joe Biden is angry at Saudi Arabia for its decision to slash oil production along with its OPEC allies against U.S. wishes, and he’s made no secret of it. The oil producer group in early October announced its largest supply cut since 2020, to the tune of 2 million barrels per day from November, which its members say is designed to spur a recovery in crude prices to counter a potential fall in demand. For this, Biden said in an interview with CNN on Tuesday that there would be “consequences.” He did not go into further detail as to what those consequences might be." https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/12/biden-threatens-consequences-for-saudi-arabia-after-opec-cut.html Real quid pro quo'ing. Will he be impeached for it? 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
