Some things don't make sense.
That brings us to some testimony from the FBI's assistant director for cyber-security, who told Congress's Rep. Matt Gaetz that he had no idea where Hunter Biden's laptop, entrusted to FBI custody, actually is.
According to the Post Millennial:
"Who has it?" Gaetz asked.
"I don't know who has it," said [FBI Assistant Director for the Cyber Division Bryan] Vorndran.
"What now you're telling me right here is that as the Assistant Director of FBI Cyber, you don't know where this is, after it was turned over to you three years ago?" Gaetz said.
"Yes, sir. That's an accurate statement," Vorndran responded.
"How are Americans supposed to trust that you can protect us from the next Colonial pipeline if it seems you can't locate a laptop that was given to you three years ago from the First Family, potentially creating vulnerabilities for our country?" Gaetz asked.
"Sir, it's not in the purview of my investigative responsibilities," Vorndran said.
"But that is shocking that you wouldn't, as the Assistant Director of Cyber, know whether or not there are international business deals, kickbacks, shakedowns, that are on this laptop that would make the First Family suspect to some sort of compromise," said Gaetz.
Vorndran should be embarrassed.
The whereabouts of this laptop are something he should know. Even if he doesn't have it, he should know who does have it because it's a computer matter that likely affects his job of protecting the country from cyber-attacks.

VORNDRAN: "Sir, as a representative of the FBI cyber program, it is not in the realm of my responsibilities to deal with the questions that you're asking me."
GAETZ: "Has anyone at FBI cyber been asked to make assessments whether or not the laptop creates a point of vulnerability?"
VORNDRAN: "Sir, we have multiple lines of investigative responsibility in the FBI. They're all available on public source."
GAETZ: "I would think you'd know this one. I mean, I would think that if the President's son, who does international business deals, referencing the now-president with the Chinese, with Ukrainians, I mean, have you assessed whether or not the Hunter Biden laptop gives Russia the ability to harm our country?"
There’s also the issue of Joe Biden buying China’s spyware drones for U.S. national security purposes — which again raises more red flags. It would be nice to know what Assistant Director Vorndran has to say about that.
All of these anomalies point to why the Hunter Biden laptop actually is important to U.S. cyber-security and does affect the job of protecting the U.S. from foreign cyber-attacks.
Yet Vorndran is amazingly incurious.
How? They don’t.
“Laptop? No clue what you’re talking about.”
FBI. Still screwing up things just like they did the Angela Davis case. Had her dead to rights but screwed up the case so bad she walked.
LOL! I was thinking the same thing.
How do they lose a laptop? The same way they shoot mothers holding infants in their arms, deliberately.
The FBI should just say Hunter’s laptop was stolen by Jimmy Hoffa and Hoffa gave it to Amelia Earhart for safekeeping. Unfortunately, Earhart flew off with it.
That would be just as believable as what they are saying now. And no worries. The media would back that story 100%.
Hope it didn’t end up being sent to ‘Hil’s computer cleaning and upgrade shop.’.
This is the same sort of obfuscation the FIB engaged in when Ted Cruz was asking about Ray Epps and whether the FIB had agents provocateur in the crowd on Jan. 6. They would keep saying things like “I am not able to answer that”.
The laptop didn’t lose itself.
This guy said it wasn't his purview...not his monkey, not his circus.
That said, I wouldn't doubt if it IS lost or altered...like, with a cloth.
Glad the repair man was smart and cautious enough to make copies.
To be fair, “I don’t know who has it” is not the same as “We lost it” or “It disappeared,” although you would think someone in his position would know where it was and who had custody of it.
You don’t ask a person like this worth something is, a judge *orders* them to produce it.
He’s a bureaucrat. He is paid to be incurious, and keep to his stovepipe view of the world.
Money causes things to disappear
I know it is a non-sequiter but it is the exact same reason. (because they can)
