NBC News, which helped push the Trump-Russia hoax for nearly four years, is now using Russian President Vladimir Putin as a source to try to discredit President Donald Trump for criticizing Hunter Biden’s alleged nefarious dealings in Ukraine.
The New York Post had dropped a bombshell reportedly exposing Hunter Biden’s business affairs in Ukraine, while his father, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, was Vice President of the United States.
The story, headlined “Putin rejects Trump's criticism of Hunter Biden's business,” was a repost from liberal outlet Reuters. The article argued that “Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Sunday that he saw nothing criminal in Hunter Biden's past business ties with Ukraine or Russia, marking out his disagreement with one of Donald Trump's attack lines in the U.S. presidential election.” The sub-headline for the piece was just as bad: “The Russian president took the time to knock down what he made clear he regarded as false allegations from Trump about the Bidens.” Did NBC News forget that NBC Today co-host Hoda Kotb had just pushed a conspiracy theory that Hunter’s laptop discovery was part of a “Russian disinformation effort aimed at influencing the U.S. Election”?
Even when Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe shot down that theory, NBC News dismissed him and proceeded to push the theory anyway. The outlet apparently didn’t believe Putin trying to gaslight Americans on Hunter Biden’s actions in Ukraine was disinformation.

Wow. Ol’ Putin’s become a regular Thomas More. A Man for All Seasons. One minute he’s being regarded as anathema for rigging elections for Trump; and the next he’s hailed as the sage arbiter as to the legality of Hunter Biden’s global wheelings and dealings. What a guy!
Those Russians are soo great. They tricked Hunter into smoking crack, getting naked, having sex with lots of different women and take photos of all those activities over the years. The Russians tricked Hunter into these activates in the USA, China and Ukraine. Damn that Russian interference!
