U.S. intelligence officials are watching for any influence campaigns from Russia or China that are aimed at amplifying existing political divisions or stoking unrest among Americans over the indictment of former President Donald Trump, according to two U.S. officials.Officials have been on alert since the indictment was confirmed last week and so far have not seen significant signs of Russian or Chinese interference in the country’s political discourse beyond the efforts that have become standard, the U.S. officials said.But after Trump’s arraignment Tuesday, one of the officials said the intelligence community is watching “very closely” for any signs of such...

It was great while it lasted. Twitter once again locked out The Post on Thursday in a stunning replay of the epic blunder the social media giant admittedly made over the revelation of Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop.

President Biden could find himself roped into his son’s legal woes as an ongoing defamation case against Hunter Biden slowly makes its way through the courts and both sides gear up for discovery, legal experts told The Post. John Paul Mac Isaac, a Delaware computer repairman, filed a suit against Hunter Biden and President Biden’s campaign committee on March 1 claiming the pair sought to falsely cast the contents of Hunter’s laptop as “Russian disinformation.” Hunter Biden dropped off his laptop at Mac Isaac’s computer repair store in Delaware in April 2019 and never returned for it. The computer drive...

President Joe Biden’s son on March 17 sued a laptop repairman for allegedly invading his privacy. Hunter Biden countersued John Paul Mac Isaac, who owned a computer store in Delaware at which Hunter Biden was said to have dropped off his computer years ago. Mac Isaac’s sharing of information from Hunter Biden constitutes invasion of privacy, the 42-page filing states. “No matter how they came into his initial possession, Mac Isaac improperly accessed files that he admits were ‘none of [his] business’ even though he was never given permission by Mr. Biden to access or review any data of Mr....

Lawyers for Hunter Biden are demanding Fox News issue corrections about some of its coverage of the president’s son or risk a defamation lawsuit, according to the Washington Post. **SNIP** Biden’s attorneys allege Fox News defamed him when Tucker Carlson claimed Biden funneled $50,000 to his father, Joe Biden. In reality, the younger Biden was paying $49,910 for office space in Washington, D.C. every three months. “We demand that you immediately retract these statements by spending a significant of amount of air-time on such retraction,” Sullivan said in the letter to Fox News and Carlson. “If we do not receive...

An FBI agent contacted a top Twitter executive hours before The Post published its first exposé about Hunter Biden’s questionable overseas business dealings in October 2020. The FBI sprang into action just hours after The Post reached out to Hunter Biden ​for comment ​about his scandalous laptop — which contained details of the then-presidential candidate’s son and his extensive dealings with Chinese and other foreign business interests –​ ​warning Twitter and ​F​acebook executives, without any evidence, ​that it ​was a Russian “hack and leak” operation. A day later, Twitter and other social media companies censored The Post’s article, “preventing it...

The "Twitter files", an exposé of internal communications at the social media platform, has reheated interest in Hunter Biden's laptop, a story that revealed potentially compromising correspondence between an adviser at Ukraine energy firm Burisma and President Joe Biden's son. While the significance of the "Twitter files" is under debate, it has reignited examination of the reach that behind-the-scenes characters had in the proliferation of the early Hunter Biden reports, including the role of figures from the U.S. intelligence community. The Claim Congressman Jim Jordan (R-OH) stated in a Facebook post published on 15 December 2022, that "51 former 'intelligence'...

Apparently, the only thing as strong as the get-Trump attitude of the deep state is the protect-Biden stance of the federal government. ... For years, our federal government has quietly operated a protect-Biden racket. The public, however, has only recently — and haphazardly — learned of the lengths federal law enforcement officials and government employees have gone to safeguard the Biden family secrets. Here are eight times our government squelched scandals. 1. Censoring the Hunter Biden Laptop Story.. The most recent and most well-known example of the feds protecting the Biden family stems from efforts by intelligence agencies to squelch...

John Paul Mac Isaac, the laptop repairman who allegedly found Hunter Biden’s laptop, revealed Monday that he is working with Republican lawmakers as they prepare to investigate the younger Biden after taking the House majority during this month’s midterms. Mac Isaac alleged in a Monday interview with Fox News that an FBI agent gave him a “chilling” warning when he first interacted with the bureau after finding the laptop. The Delaware-based laptop repairman said he recalled telling one agent that he would change their names when he published his book. “That’s when Agent Mike turned around and told me that,...

Republican ranking member on the House Oversight Committee, Rep. James Comer, is calling on new Twitter owner Elon Musk to cooperate with the congressional request for the social media company to provide records related to the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story. According to Comer, who represents Kentucky's first district, former Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal ignored the request back in April. Comer, who leads the minority party in the investigative committee, wrote a letter to Musk on Friday, right after he officially became the new owner.

The FBI team that was in communication with Facebook before the social media company censored the original Hunter Biden laptop story has been identified, according to a new court filing. Meta, Facebook’s parent company, identified the team as the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force (FITF), according to an updated complaint entered late on Oct. 6. Meta named the team after receiving a subpoena in a case alleging the federal government pressured Big Tech firms to censor users. “Pursuant to the third-party subpoena, Meta has identified the FBI’s FITF, as supervised by Laura Dehmlow, and Elvis Chan as involved in the...

Correspondent Kevin Corke reports the latest on the resignation and the allegations surrounding the Hunter Biden investigation.

An intelligence analyst behind the FBI’s botched Trump-Russia collusion probe is now accused of using the bureau’s authority to discredit reports about Hunter Biden’s criminal activity months before the 2020 presidential election. Meet Brian Auten. The FBI analyst is hardly a household name, but whistleblowers who contacted the office of GOP senator Chuck Grassley say he was behind an August 2020 report that FBI officials used as part of a "scheme…to undermine derogatory information connected to Hunter Biden by falsely suggesting it was disinformation."

The whole world knows that Old Joe Biden is not really the man in charge. Biden himself has made this clear on numerous occasions, with his many oblique references to getting in trouble if he deviated from the instructions he was given. But it has never been fully clear who is running this dumpster fire known as the Biden administration; speculation has run to chief of staff Ron Klain, Barack Obama, and others. Now, however, another name must be added to the mix: that of none other than Hunter Biden. In a Dec. 3, 2018 recording that has just been...

Censorship of the laptop believed to have belonged to Hunter Biden in the final weeks of the 2020 election doesn't warrant prosecutions, according to former Attorney General William Barr. Newsmax host Sean Spicer, who served as former President Donald Trump's first White House press secretary, pressed Barr on Thursday about whether there will be any "legal consequences" for the suppression of the story and for those who dismissed it as Russian disinformation. "Not that I can think of," Barr said after noting that politicians and the media have a propensity to tell lies..... Barr agreed with Spicer that Republicans can...

Earlier this week it was reported that there are an additional 450 gigabytes of material on Hunter Biden’s laptop that have previously gone unreported. However, on Thursday the computer repairman who was given the abandoned laptop says this isn’t so. There were several news reports this week suggesting there is more on the Hunter laptop than was previously discovered. However, this notion was refuted by the computer repairman who first looked at the laptop and who made a copy of it before handing it over to the FBI. John Paul Mac Isaac claims that there 300 gigs of data on...
