This is the story of an American patriot, an honorable man, John Paul Mac Issac, who tried to do the right thing and is now being unfairly and maliciously slandered as an agent of foreign intelligence, specifically Russia. He is not an agent or spy for anyone. He is his own man. How do I know? I have known his dad for more than 20 years. I’ve known John Paul’s dad as Mac. Mac is a decorated Vietnam Veteran, who flew gunships in Vietnam. And he continued his military service with an impeccable record until he retired as an Air Force Colonel. The crews of those gunships have an annual reunion and Mac usually takes John Paul along, who volunteers his computer and video skills to record and compile the stories of those brave men who served their country in a difficult war.
This story is very simple–Hunter Biden dropped off three computers with liquid damage at a repair shop in Wilmington, Delaware on April 12, 2019. The owner, John Mac Issac, examined the three and determined that one was beyond recovery, one was okay and the data on the harddrive of the third could be recoverd. Hunter signed the service ticket and John Paul Mac Issac repaired the hard drive and down loaded the data. During this process he saw some disturbing images and a number of emails that concerned Ukraine, Burisma, China and other issues. With the work completed, Mr. Mac Issac prepared an invoice, sent it to Hunter Biden and notified him that the computer was ready to be retrieved. Hunter did not respond. In the ensuing four months (May, June, July and August), Mr. Mac Issac made repeated efforts to contact Hunter Biden. Biden never answered and never responded. More importantly, Biden stiffed John Paul Mac Issac–i.e., he did not pay the bill.
When the manufactured Ukraine crisis surfaced in August 2019, John Paul realized he was sitting on radioactive material that might be relevant to the investigation. After conferring with his father, Mac and John Paul decided that Mac would take the information to the FBI office in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Mac walked into the Albuquerque FBI office and spoke with an agent who refused to give his name. Mac explained the material he had, but was rebuffed by the FBI. He was told basically, get lost. This was mid-September 2019. Two months passed and then, out of the blue, the FBI contacted John Paul Mac Issac. Two FBI agents from the Wilmington FBI office–Joshua Williams and Mike Dzielak–came to John Paul’s business. He offered immediately to give them the hard drive, no strings attached. Agents Williams and Dzielak declined to take the device.
Two weeks later, the intrepid agents called and asked to come and image the hard drive. John Paul agreed but, instead of taking the hard drive or imaging the drive, they gave him a subpoena. It was part of a grand jury proceeding but neither agent said anything about the purpose of the grand jury. John Paul complied with the subpoena and turned over the hard drive and the computer.
In the ensuing months, starting with the impeachment trial of President Trump, he heard nothing from the FBI and knew that none of the evidence from the hard drive had been shared with President Trump’s defense team.
The lack of action and communication with the FBI led John Paul to make the fateful decision to contact Rudy Giuliani’s office and offer a copy of the drive to the former mayor. We now know that Rudy accepted John Paul’s offer and that Rudy’s team shared the information with the New York Post.
John Paul Mac Issac is not responsible for the emails, images and videos recovered from Hunter Biden’s computer. He was hired to do a job, he did the job and submitted an invoice for the work. Hunter Biden, for some unexplained reason, never responded and never asked for the computer. But that changed last Tuesday, October 13, 2020. A person claiming to be Hunter Biden’s lawyer called John Paul Mac Issac and asked for the computer to be returned. Too late. That horse had left the barn and was with the FBI.
John Paul, acting under Delaware law, understood that Hunter’s computer became the property of his business 90 days after it had been abandoned.
At no time did John Paul approach any media outlet or tabloid offering to sell salacious material. A person of lesser character might have tried to profit. But that is not the essence of John Paul Mac Issac. He had information in his possession that he learned, thanks to events subsequent to receiving the computer for a repair job, was relevant to the security of our nation. He did what any clear thinking American would do–he, through his father, contacted the FBI. When the FBI finally responded to his call for help, John cooperated fully and turned over all material requested.
The failure here is not John Paul’s. He did his job. The FBI dropped the ball and, by extension, the Department of Justice. Sadly, this is becoming a disturbing, repeating theme–the FBI through incompetence or malfeasance is not doing its job.
Any news outlet that is publishing the damnable lie that John Paul is part of some subversive effort to interfere in the United States Presidential election is on notice. That is slander and defamation. Fortunately, the evidence from Hunter Biden’s computer is in the hands of the FBI and Rudy Giuliani and, I suspect, the U.S. Senate. Those with the power to do something must act. John Paul Mac Issac’s honor is intact. We cannot say the same for those government officials who have a duty to deal with this information.
I hope he and his family are getting some help being safe. He is the Paul Revere of our time.
Mac should have known going to the FBI would be fruitless given recent history.
A wiser man would have sensed the winds and tides and sailed his ship to the port of Devin Nunes.
However Mac was wise by copying the hard drive. For that he is wise.
Hunter gets 80k a month from Burisma and yet doesn’t pay a few hundred dollars to pick up a computer. His brain is fried.
I had the same question. There has to be a reason why Albuquerque, but it’s certainly not given.
The FBI is loyal to the dimrat party not to this country.
Time to clean house from top to bottom.
It’s not like Hunter has never been known to make self-destructive decisions before, but that’s a giant one even for him. Thank God he did it, though.
We know it was Hunters computer because he signed the repair contract.
Yes. He could have bought a hammer at the dollar store.
Meanwhile, Trump impeached for a phone call.
RE: the FBI. I live by a national park and take my dogs there frequently. It is remote, but close to a large ex-urban area outside a major city. A brand new, large van filled with CLEARLY middle eastern men, 20-30, in fresh white t-shirts and CLEARLY freshly shaved slowly drove by me on a gravel/dirt road that led to a ranch 30 miles away. They were not farm workers. The FBI laughed at me when I called them. This was 7 years ago. I’ve since read that a terrorist group was training up there. I think we have real problems in this country.
Wow ... interesting. Thanks for posting this. Wish it would go viral.

Very good post. Fact is while everyone is crying for the top corrupt leadership to be booted out, the booting out must begin from the bottom up to the top. It is evident the bottom of the FBI is as corrupt as the top. Disband the FBI, have all reapply for employment with the new organization. Ditch the name “ Federal Bureau of Investigation”, it has been disgraced and corrupted beyond salvage ( it is more obvious every day) and needs to be tossed into the disgraced trash can of corrupted organizations.
It was a mistake to contact the FBI. He should have gone to OANN.
No not really. He covered his ass. Its the FBI (Wray) and DOJ (Barr) that are now in the hot seat. What needs to happen is Trump needs to sack them and not wait until after the election. This on top of them covering up and stalling on the Russiagate, is more than enough to prove the internal corruption and treasonous coverup. But Trump wont.
Just sayin'.
One is inclined to agree with this.

Stick this in your bowl of soup, Chris Wallace!
Whenever Trump talks to Biden in the next debate he should call him “big guy”. That was his alleged name in the emails.
Or, he can say “the big guy”. That way it doesn’t sound condescending and aggressive but points to his corruption.
