It was reported tonight by the New York Post that according to his new book, Hunter Biden laptop repairman John Paul Mac Issac said that an FBI agent threatened him to hush up.
According to the Post, John Paul Mac Isaac said in his new book “American Injustice: My Battle to Expose the Truth” that two federal agents came to his Mac Shop in Wilmington, Delaware in December 2019 to recoup the laptop following a subpoena.
Mac Issac had reportedly volunteered to hand the laptop over to the feds two months earlier and said the alleged threat came after he made a joke.
“Hey, lads, I’ll remember to change your names when I write the book,” Mac Issac had joked.
In the book, Mac Issac reportedly wrote, “Agent Wilson kept walking but Agent DeMeo paused and turned to face me.”
“It is our experience that nothing ever happens to people that don’t talk about these things,” the agent allegedly responded.
Mac Issac said he locked the door after the agents walked out, leaving him to “digest the encounter” as he wondered, “Was I being paranoid, or had what the agent just told me been a direct threat, or at best a thinly veiled one?”
In May, the Daily Beast issued an apology to Mac Issac after a report published in December 2020, after it became public knowledge that Hunter Biden was the subject of a federal criminal investigation over his finances, alleged the laptop was “stolen.”
“An earlier version of this story mistakenly referred to Hunter Biden’s laptop as ‘stolen.’ We have removed that word, and we apologize to Mr. Mac Isaac for the error,” the media outlet said in an “editor’s note” on the story.
The current news about Mac Issac comes as the FBI is under scrutiny for the raid on Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence.

Merrick Garland doesn’t like people who stand up to ‘elite thugs’ who run DC. Garland’s ‘johnnie on the spot’ when it comes to defending powerful thugs from private powerless citizens... The computer store owner better be careful - his shop might get raided...
Not if you started over with people from outside of the District of Corruption.
I think he already closed it down?
“Highly credible” whistleblowers have come forward to a senior Senate Republican alleging a widespread effort within the FBI to downplay or discredit negative information about President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, according to letters reviewed by CBS News.
“The information provided to my office involves concerns about the FBI’s receipt and use of derogatory information relating to Hunter Biden, and the FBI’s false portrayal of acquired evidence as disinformation,” GOP Sen. Chuck Grassley wrote FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland on July 25. “The volume and consistency of these allegations substantiate their credibility and necessitate this letter.”
Grassley, the ranking member on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the whistleblowers alleged that legitimate streams of information and intelligence about the president’s son were characterized as likely disinformation or prematurely shut down leading up to the 2020 presidential election.

The original Untouchables were Treasury agents, not FIBbers.
It is one thing to be so lacking in ethics to work for such an organization, but the lack of self respect speaks volumes for such people as my BIL.
The only respectable FBI agent is one who resigned (i.e., ‘former’).
You mean like Arlington and Bethesda?..............
“it is possible that the agent was joking back”
Right. Because every FBI agent is known to be a laugh riot. They moonlight at comedy clubs.
“Hannity is ... deep state.”
He’s (allegedly) the one who convinced PDJT to endorse Oz. Sad.
For right or wrong, my entire life until sometime in the Nineties, I felt that the FBI really was on my side as a citizen. If they came to my house to ask questions of some kind, being a law-abiding citizen, I would have invited them in, offered refreshments, and spoken unhesitatingly to them.
I do not think I am completely alone in this. I know many Americans, who, 30 years ago, might have felt quite the same.
Now, I would not allow them in my house. I would not speak to them without a lawyer present. I regard them now as an enemy of the citizenry.
That is very disillusioning for me.
IF there were ANY good ones left : wouldn’t they be quitting & OUTING the others???
I hear ya bro.
One would think so, yes.
Mark, the Left has NO FORESIGHT.
They never think ahead to see what will happen “if we do this.”
They are losing all demographics and still THEY DO NOT SEE HOW IT HAPPENEN.
Ultra Stupid.
No foresight, no hindsight, no sight at all. Screw em.
