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.
Hope this patriot gets a go fund me site...and the big tech’s don’t take it down
unfortunately its beginning to appear as though the DOJ/FBI, while they draw a paycheck from We the People, work for someone/something else altogether.
It was a mistake to contact the FBI. He should have gone to OANN.
Now that John Isaac has done his civic duty, he will likely end up very rich from lawsuits for defamation. But he did the right thing first. Kudos to this man.
One gets the impression that the FBI is only capable of performing Russian collusion investigations. If you had drug activity, gun-running, mafia activity, or terror cells...you’d be better off calling your state police. For all practical purposes....the FBI has become BFI (Barney Fife Investigations).
Nor for news organizations and individuals that have slandered him. He needs to lawyer up like Nick Sandman and sue these outlets. And his team needs to track down social media individuals, even “anonymous” ones, that have slandered him in social media comments.
Freedom of speech is NOT freedom to lie, especially lies that injure another person.
The FBI didn’t drop the f’ing ball! They ran the play the coach told them too...take a knee.
We prayed yesterday that every corrupt FBI staff be removed. EVERY FBI staff needs to be investigated— emails, reports, social media, etc. — ANY sign of not being “just and fair” and out they go.
We are praying, declaring, and believing Isaiah 54:14 (NLT) You will be secure under a government that is just and fair. Your enemies will stay far away. You will live in peace, and terror will not come near.
It’s as if no one ever watched The X Files, which turned out to be prophetic.
“After conferring with his father, Mac and John Paul decided that Mac would take the information to the FBI office in Albuquerque, New Mexico.”
Why? Why not the local FBI office?
Govt agents do not want to be the one who blew up Biden and then have Biden win. Nobody wants to be in that retaliation boat, so they don’t go there.
Hard to believe that somebody who left his drivers license and crack pipe in a rental car would lose track of a laptop full of incriminating evidence.
Maybe his father lives there, or maybe they didn’t trust the FBI office in Biden’s home state.
I’m very glad he connected the FBI first. It thoroughly EXPOSES them as ENEMY AGENTS.
...
That’s a good way of looking at it.
Nick Clegg is former British Deputy Prime Minister and leader of the Liberal Democrats. lengthy piece:
16 Oct: Daily Mail: Nick Clegg ‘was involved in Facebook’s decision to hush-up story about Joe Biden’s son’ that led to social media giant being branded the Democrat’s ‘PR team’ by Republicans
Nick Clegg is vice-president of global affairs and communications at Facebook
Facebook was accused of ‘acting as Joe Biden’s PR team’ by top Republicans
Decision to ‘reduce the distribution’ came before the US election on November 3
For moderation issues that hold political significance Sir Nick will look into it
It is not known who had the final say in the distribution of the Joe Biden story
By JEMMA CARR and JENNIFER SMITH
Former British Deputy Prime Minister Sir Nick Clegg was involved in Facebook’s decision to ‘reduce the distribution’ of a New York Post Joe Biden story, reports suggest...
Sir Nick, who left the UK government in 2015, is now the vice-president of global affairs and communications at the social media giant...
Most of Facebook’s decisions are made by automatic software - or by moderation staff, The Daily Telegraph (LINK) reports.
But, for sensitive moderation issues that hold cultural or political significance, Facebook’s vice-president of content policy, vice-president of global public policy and then Sir Nick look into the case as it passes up a chain.
Only the most high-profile cases will hit Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg or COO Sheryl Sandberg’s desks.
It is not known who had the final say in the distribution of the Joe Biden story and Facebook declined to comment to the newspaper...
Neither Joe nor Hunter has denied the story outright. Now, many are accusing the two tech companies (Twitter & FB) of playing favorites because no anti-Trump story by a legitimate news organization has ever faced such tough restrictions...
Facebook and Twitter were accused of ‘election interference’ for throttling the article...

Whatever happened to the rule “If you see something, say something”?
the fact that could even be an issue...that elected officials could conceivably reach down through the depths of the bureaucracy into civil servants performing their job description for which they are to be paid, is absolute proof the DOJ can no longer do the job for which it was created.
The same FBI that responded with 15 agents to investigate an old rope pull in a NASCAR garage!?!
Correction: Agents name is Joshua Wlson, not Williams. Look him up.
