And the FBI [Faking Bogus Investigations] had the laptop and HID IT all through the fake Ukraine impeachment.

Traitorous Bastards.

Good luck finding a fair and unbiased judge. Our judicial system is utterly corrupt from the top to bottom, especially in matters with a political component.

The guy is a “hacker” like a car repair shop owner taking possession of an abandoned car sent in for repair is a hacker.
He needs to sue CNN, MSNBC and the rest of the fake news media too.

Hmmm, verrry interesting. Twitter, and other ‘social’ websites are protected by federal law from SOME of these kinds of lawsuits by pretending to be publishers, not content providers.

However, they are clearly directing content right now by throttling conservative voices, and freely allowing liberal voices. In my logical, but not legal, mind, this opens them up to lawsuits from those among the ‘throttled’. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out.

He needs to sue the 41 former Intellignce officers, 3 of them former CIA Directors!, that said for sure the laptop was Russian disinformation, signed their names to that statement and disseminated it to all the world. Meanwhile, the FBI had the Russian disinformation laptop for over a year!

If our good, (is there any left) American representatives cannot rescue us from this lying hating media spewing propaganda 24/7, who can? Do we stay and fight or leave America to waste away under the thumb of liars and haters?

The guy is a “hacker” like a car repair shop owner taking possession of an abandoned car sent in for repair is a hacker.

The laws covering abandoned propery at a repair shop cover the hardware. Does it cover the information on the hard disk? And does it cover it even after the FIB has the hardware? Could Humper claim his email implicating Chinese Joe is covered by copyright laws and the repair shop owner is not authorized to distribute it? Just trying to get ahead of any defenses the 'Rats might claim next.
