Biden election interference, 2020: the Hunter laptop disinformation campaign by the left
At the same time the intelligence community was spreading the word that the Hunter Biden laptop was likely to be disinformation, it knew full well that the laptop was Hunter’s and everything on it was real and not “Russian disinformation” at all. It was an Orwellian full court press by the left, the media, and the intelligence community to lie about all of this and pull Biden across the finish line. And it worked.
I repeat – not only does the intelligence community and the FBI now know that the laptop is authentic, but they knew it back then. They did not want Trump re-elected, and so they smeared him, and the MSM dutifully followed.
Later, the plan was to settle Hunter’s gun application case and give him immunity for all crimes, but an alert judge in Delaware noticed the unusual global immunity deal and wouldn’t let that stand. That mean the case went forward, and in court the prosecutors have said the laptop is real, is Hunter’s, and is admissible evidence and not “Russian disinformation” at all – just as Trump and Giuliani always said.
Most Americans probably aren’t aware of this history. They might know now that the laptop is real, but they may not know that the intelligence community knew it was real while peddling the idea that it was false. To refresh your memory, from last July:
On July 17, 2023, the House Judiciary Committee and Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government conducted a transcribed interview of Laura Dehmlow, the Section Chief of the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force (FITF). During her transcribed interview, Dehmlow revealed that the same FBI personnel who were warning social media companies about a potential Russian “hack and leak” operation in the run-up to the 2020 election knew that the laptop belonging to Hunter Biden was not Russian disinformation. After the New York Post broke a story based on the contents of the laptop about Biden family influence peddling, the FBI made the institutional decision to refuse to answer direct questions from social media companies about the laptop’s authenticity—despite months of constant information sharing up to that time. Put simply, after the FBI conditioned social media companies to believe that the laptop was the product of a hack-and-dump operation, the Bureau stopped its information sharing, allowing social media companies to conclude that the New York Post story was Russian disinformation. …
The FBI made this decision despite being in possession of the laptop and having confirmed its authenticity. According to Dehmlow, multiple personnel on FITF knew that the laptop was real. …
The FBI’s failure to alert social-media companies that the Hunter Biden laptop was real, and not mere Russian disinformation, is particularly troubling. The FBI had the laptop in their possession since December 2019 and had warned social-media companies to look for a “hack and dump” operation by the Russians prior to the 2020 election. Even after Facebook specifically asked whether the Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation, Dehmlow of the FBI refused to comment, resulting in the social-media companies’ suppression of the story. As a result, millions of U.S. citizens did not hear the story prior to the November 3, 2020 election.
It wasn’t difficult to authenticate the laptop. It was easy.
So, here’s another video you might call to the attention of your friends:

NOTE: More on the sordid stories coming out during the Hunter Biden trial can be found here.
Isn’t it amazing how all those crazy ” conspiracy theories ” from the MAGA nut cases are turning out to be true after all.
Physicsguy, I was just thinking about that this morning.
I thought up a simple way to explain Trump’s “fraud” case. You want to get a loan and you use your house as collateral. The bank gives you the loan and you pay it off, never missing a payment. Years later a DA charges you with fraud because he feels that you inflated the price of your house.
My wife said when you put it like that, it sounds really crazy.
2024 definition: A conspiracy theorist is someone who just plain doesn’t believe statements emanating from known liars.
OK, fine, we here knew it then, and still do. But, we also know that Hunter will walk.
Second comment: Looks like something is happening concerning a juror in Trumps tumped up fraud case. Will it lead to anything?
Does it mean Trump’s trial was rigged!!! Shocked, shocked I am!
In response to Trump’s criticism of the intelligence agencies, Charles Schumer ‘warned’ him: ““Let me tell you: You take on the intelligence community — they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you.” This wasn’t really a Warning, of course, it was a Threat.
The only proper response from a US Senator who believed this would be: “And we have to do something about this. We don’t want to be a country where politics is ultimately controlled by the intelligence agencies in the way that it is controlled by the military in some countries.”
But Schumer, like most Democrat politicians, seems to like it that way.
I want to know why Schumer and Company allowed the intelligence types to accrue that level of power.
The danchenko dossier had been compiled years before of course it was utterly fake like most intel product of the last 20 years
Warner who was his wingman made his money in russian media had contacts with deripaska and assange through a fmr justice official they cover both sides of the plate
Hunter Biden is a drug addict, a liar, a sex addict, an exhibitionist, a grifter, a womanizer, a tax cheat, a dead-beat dad of his child in Arkansas, a violator of FARA laws, the shakedown bag man for the Biden clan, and just an all-round vile person. I’ve probably missed several of his criminal and immoral traits but the above should be enough to show what a man of low character he is.
Not a very nice person. In watching the trial news and videos of he and his family members coming and going to court, I’ve gotten the vibe that the Biden family thinks they are a cut above all the serfs. IMO, they are a family who has been using Joe’s political influence to lord it over the common people for many years. It’s almost a certainty that the jury is intimidated.
So, when he beats this gun rap, will the voters get the message? The message is that there are officially two tiers of justice, and the only way to change it is to vote for Trump in November.
Saw at Powerline the laptop contents is available in a book, paperback or on line
Not sure I really need to see it but am positive it’s real and the contents
Just heard from my cousin who is on the jury: Hunter will be acquitted on Monday. Thanks for all your hard work!
(Just kidding, your honor!)
Out of all the countless #NeverTrump outrages over the past years – it’s almost a decade now – nothing was worse than the notorious “earmarks” memo from “51 former national security advisors” including a former CIA head. Not only did they blatantly interfere in a presidential election but they did so by suppressing a legitimate news story. Not really surprising that the former CIA head was a communist appointed by a communist who managed to get into the Oval Office.
the covering with a cloth served a purpose, one couldn’t plausibly fund hamas otherwise,

the definition of insanity,
“…probably missed…”
Indeed…
…that Hunter is “the smartest guy I know…”
(To be sure, “I” is the Confabulator-in-Chief…)
The media serves as an Orwellian Ministry of Truth. Rather than being embarrassed at having the truth revealed, the media relish the power to define reality and make changes to that definition as political circumstances change.
