The link that you provided in post 61 was in Arabic and nothing more than a bad joke... I have no idea where you are getting your supposed quotes from.
Of course, the city has offered denials about who owns the property in question... that is one of the reasons a bunch of foreign oligarchs choose to buy property there... Corrupt local officials are willing to help with the charade.
Your denials about even the spending habits of a woman who often wears fashionable clothing from leading designers that cost tens of thousands of dollars show that you are nothing more than a shill for corrupt Democrats and deep state politicians. The only thing that you have provided for us here to support your defense of one of the most corrupt politicians in the world is a link that was in Arabic? I would tend to expect more from even you.
Here is one more humorous example of the work of the "fact checkers" who mean so much to you? Here is a story from Politico from 2020.
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/10/19/hunter-biden-story-russian-disinfo-430276
The "fact checker's" loved it and confimred it was all true. A couple years later after the damage was done we get this:
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/16/us/politics/republicans-hunter-biden-laptop.html
This is a good illustration of how the "fact checkers" and others are fine with nonsense and discredit absolutely true information. Wake-up!!!
Since it is behind a paywall I have copied and pasted the text...
Officials Who Cast Doubt on Hunter Biden Laptop Face Questions
Dozens of former intelligence officials signed a letter discounting the laptop’s contents. Republicans say the missive was part of a Biden campaign operation.

When James R. Clapper Jr., the former director of national intelligence, testifies on Wednesday behind closed doors on Capitol Hill, he will be the sixth former intelligence official to be hauled before Congress as part of what has become an intense focus of House Republicans: a public letter sent during the height of the 2020 presidential campaign.
Republicans have seized on the document, signed by 51 former intelligence officials whom the G.O.P. has taken to calling the “spies who lie,” as a prime piece of evidence for their claims that officials inside the federal government have tried to smear and damage conservatives. They argue that the missive was written at the behest of President Biden’s allies to distract from salacious material found on the abandoned laptop of his son Hunter Biden, and that it ultimately helped the elder Mr. Biden defeat former President Donald J. Trump.
In the letter, reported at the time by Politico, former intelligence officials holding impressive national security credentials wrote that they believed that the contents of the laptop — full of evidence of drug use, prostitution and foreign business deals — could be part of a Russian campaign aimed at influencing the election, though they emphasized that they had no knowledge that was true.
Three days later, Mr. Biden cited the letter during a presidential debate to rebut Mr. Trump’s criticisms, asserting that “there are 50 former national intelligence folks who said that what he’s accusing me of is a Russian plan.”

Three years later, no concrete evidence has emerged to confirm the assertion that the laptop contained Russian disinformation, and portions of its contents have been verified as authentic.
Republicans now say they have uncovered evidence that the letter was part of a Biden campaign operation. According to closed-door testimony and emails, Biden campaign officials, including Antony J. Blinken, now the secretary of state, played a role in the creation of the letter. They also said a C.I.A. employee “may have” been involved in soliciting at least one signature for it.
“The public statement by 51 former intelligence officials was a political operation to help elect Vice President Biden in the 2020 presidential election,” an interim report released last week by the Republican-led House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees concluded. The report cited an email that said the letter was intended to create a “talking point to use.”
The report concluded: “The American people deserve to know that Hunter Biden’s laptop and emails were real. They always were real. The allegations that they were the product of Russian disinformation were false.”
The investigation into the signers of the letter comes as Republicans are digging into multiple aspects of the Hunter Biden story: Why social media companies suppressed it; whether his father was involved in any of his business deals; and whether anyone in government interfered with any inquiries into the younger Mr. Biden, who is currently under federal investigation.
As Justice Department officials weigh the matter, the investigator overseeing the Internal Revenue Service’s portion of the case has also come forward with allegations of political favoritism in the inquiry. On Monday, a lawyer for that investigator sent a short letter to Congress that said the investigator and the rest of his team were being removed from the inquiry, which is reaching its end as officials weigh whether to pursue charges. A spokesman for the president said he was committed to the Justice Department’s independence “free from any political interference by the White House.”
Democrats argue that the Republicans are wasting time and resources investigating the 51 former intelligence officials, who were private citizens at the time of the letter and wanted Mr. Biden to be victorious in the campaign. The former intelligence officials stress that their letter stated that they had no evidence of a Russian disinformation campaign, and that they were merely stating an opinion.
Several said they did not regret their actions.
“The Congress is wasting its time and our money by investigating the First Amendment rights of private citizens,” Mark Zaid, a lawyer who represents seven signers of the letter, said in an interview. Democrats also argue that the letter must be understood in its proper context. Mr. Trump’s personal lawyer, Rudolph W. Giuliani — whose credibility had become shaky — had been shopping around the contents of the laptop to different news media outlets, not long after a top Trump intelligence official warned that Russia was seeking to “primarily denigrate former Vice President Biden” and that “some Kremlin-linked actors are also seeking to boost President Trump’s candidacy.”
The Democrats also note that Facebook and Twitter decided to censor or limit the sharing of a New York Post article about the laptop’s contents five days before the letter’s publication in Politico.
In a statement submitted to Congress on behalf of Michael J. Morell, the former deputy director of the C.I.A., Mr. Morell said he “organized and helped draft” the statement “because of his honest and well-founded belief that Russia was involved in some way in the emergence of the Hunter Biden emails for the purpose of interfering in the 2020 presidential election.”
“The public statement was careful not to claim that the New York Post story was disinformation or that the information it reported was untrue, and Mr. Morell was careful to confirm his suspicions with public source information and the views of multiple experts in the field,” the statement said.
But Republicans are hoping to escalate the inquiry and have scheduled at least two more transcribed interviews. Representative Jim Jordan, Republican of Ohio and the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, also suggested in an interview that he would be investigating whether any of the signers had retained their security clearances and whether Congress could pass legislation to revoke them.
“The 51 people who signed that now-famous letter, my guess is they probably all had their security clearances?” he said. “Does that make sense?”

It is obvious that you have zero interest in whether the claim is true or not but here it is anyway.
The quotes were from the city of El Gouna, Egypt, I didn’t translate the first posting so that you could know that the wording was a translation, to explain any awkward wording.
“Orascom Development denies reports Zelensky family own villa in Egypt’s El Gouna resort”
Orascom Development, the owner of El Gouna upscale resort town on Egypt’s, denied reports that the family of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky owns a villa in the resort.
The reports circulated online were “completely false,” added the company in a statement on Wednesday.
The company is committed to protecting customer privacy and does not share any information or details about its customers, the statement added. Nevertheless, it noted, after reviewing its records, it found no evidence that Zelensky or any member of his family owned a property in El Gouna.
The company also said that the reports on social media included a photo of a villa that is currently owned by an Egyptian family.
The photos of the alleged contract are also false and the company’s contract templates do not match the images that were shared, the company added.
The false reports began to circulate on social media two weeks ago when Egyptian blogger and journalist Mohamed El-Alawi claimed in a video on his YouTube Channel that the family of the Ukrainian president acquired a villa using the humanitarian aid money allocated to support Ukraine.
The reports were based on a photo of a villa that was allegedly owned by Zelensky’s wife, Olena.
The photo was accompanied by a fake contract that claimed to show the sale of the villa to Zelensky. YouTube shut down El-Alawi’s YouTube Channel yet his videos are still shared on other platforms, including Facebook, TikTok, and Twitter.
Orascom Development said it is taking legal action against those who spread false reports.
The Egyptian developer’s statement comes after its co-founder, multi-billionaire Naguib Sawiris, denied on Twitter on Tuesday that the Ukrainian president and his family owned a $5 million villa in El Gouna.”
