Data from a laptop that the lawyer for a Delaware computer repair shop owner says was left by Hunter Biden in 2019 – and which the shop owner later provided to the FBI under subpoena – shows no evidence of tampering or fabrication, according to an independent review commissioned by CBS News...

...The independent analysis, by two cyber investigators from Minneapolis-based Computer Forensics Services, found no evidence that the user data had been modified, fabricated or tampered with. Nor did it find any new files originating after April 2019,....

Lindsey Graham was out there saying it was Russian Disinformation.

This took like 4 hrs to validate.

Mail Servers time stamp down to a 1000th of a second. People confirmed the other end of the emails. You can’t fake those time stamps.

Easy stuff.

“Lindsey Graham was out there saying it was Russian Disinformation.”

Got a source for that?

Among his many sins, I don’t believe calling the lapttop disinformation is among them. I do recall in late 2020 him saying Repubs were going continue looking into the laptop and the Russia hoax even after Trump is out of office.’

As far as CBS, pretty sorry display of ‘investigative journalism’ taking 2 years to look into the laptop.

Catherine Herridge must be proud that she left Fox for a breaking news operation like CBS.

Leslie Stahl according to The Spectator has not apologized and I’m sure she never will.

The MSM press has been nearly entirely behind the left since…maybe the 80s?
That and their hold on education are our greatest threats IMO.

They were trying to show it was a scam, not that it was real. Epic fail.

The SC GOP and the good people of SC need to toss Linda in 2026. Four more years of this backstabbing a-hole unfortunately.

And I do believe they were touting the computer as Russian disinfo a time ago, right?

Why this report now?

In 2019, the MSM created a monolithic narrative the laptop was fake; Russian disinformation. They even colluded with Big Tech to block any stories to the contrary. Their purpose was to destroy any possibility Trump might win reelection. They succeeded.

Fast forward two years and now the same MSM which foisted a Turnip as president on the country now realizes that same turnip intends to run for reelection in 2024 at the very ripe age of 82. The MSM collectively realizes the Turnip in Chief’s mental ability, or lack thereof, can no longer be papered over or assisted thru periodic injections of amphetamine before events where the Turnip is actually expected to interact in public.

So now begins the campaign by the same MSM to slowly undermine the Turnip; to sideline him for someone more viable as a candidate.

Suddenly, the laptop, which the MSM swore was fake they now swear is real. Well of course it is real. It was always real. The only thing fake is the MSM pretending to be producing actual news reporting. I pray they will be stuck with the Turnip; now hung around their neck like an albatross.

Time to laser focus on Hunter kickbacks to Joe aka “the big guy”. Expose The Truth about the Biden Mafia. Those who are also getting their palm greased won’t care though.

CBS knew this for 2 years. Now in damage control operations.

CBS is doing their version of "limited hang out".

A limited hangout or partial hangout is a tactic used in media relations, perception management, politics, and information management. The tactic originated as a technique in the espionage trade.

According to former special assistant to the Deputy Director of the CIA Victor Marchetti, a limited hangout is "spy jargon for a favorite and frequently used gimmick of the clandestine professionals. When their veil of secrecy is shredded and they can no longer rely on a phony cover story to misinform the public, they resort to admitting, sometimes even volunteering, some of the truth while still managing to withhold the key and damaging facts in the case. The public, however, is usually so intrigued by the new information that it never thinks to pursue the matter further."[1][2] While used by the CIA and other intelligence organizations, the tactic has become popularized in the corporate and political spheres.[3]
