Politico Playbook: Hey, the Hunter-laptop story was legit after all

The deuce you say. Maybe the rest of the national media shouldn’t have rushed to bury the story of Hunter Biden’s laptop in the first place, huh? A new book from a Politico reporter belatedly clears the decks for a reassessment of the Bidens, especially Hunter and his nexus between powerful interests and “the big guy”:

FIRST IN PLAYBOOK — Ben Schreckinger’s “The Bidens: Inside the First Family’s Fifty-Year Rise to Power,” out today, finds evidence that some of the purported HUNTER BIDEN laptop material is genuine, including two emails at the center of last October’s controversy.

"A person who had independent access to Hunter Biden’s emails confirmed he did receive a 2015 email from a Ukrainian businessman thanking him for the chance to meet Joe Biden. The same goes for a 2017 email in which a proposed equity breakdown of a venture with Chinese energy executives includes the line, “10 held by H for the big guy?” (This person recalled seeing both emails, but was not in a position to compare the leaked emails word-for-word to the originals.)

MORE: Emails released by a Swedish government agency also match emails in the leaked cache, and two people who corresponded with Hunter Biden confirmed emails from the cache were genuine."

Gee, just imagine if the national media had taken an interest in asking these questions eleven months ago. Instead, not only did these outlets immediately dismiss the Hunter-laptop story as fake news, social media platforms began blocking any discussion of it — to the point of suspending the New York Post’s Twitter accounts. Facebook not only suppressed it, but bragged about creating an algorithm to automatically suppress it. We’ll get back to that point in the end.

I just have to ask what your Twitter and Facebook presence are. If they are anything more than none you should not say anything at all.

Some have been waiting to see who first takes out Kamala and who replaces her before they trade in Jomentia. Pelosi v ValJar are probably at it behind the scenes and who do the letter agencies want?

Just in case you’re thinking of confronting any of your lib friends with this proof, they already have 2 answers prepared for you.

1. “OK, that proves it. I’m not going to vote for Hunter!”
2. “So what, that’s old news! Wasn’t that reported last year before the election? Why are you trotting that out again? Just MOVE ON!”.

(title):" Politico Playbook: Hey, the Hunter-laptop story was legit after all "

One pRESIDENTIAL election too late,
and 11 months too slow, and now comes the realization.
Politico earns, rightly, NO RESPECT as journalism !
