POLITICO Reporter Finally Confirms that Hunter Laptop is Real Despite Media Narrative
A reporter for left-wing mews outlet POLITICO has now confirmed that Hunter Biden’s laptop is real despite the media narrative that it was merely a Russian disinformation campaign.
For months, conservative media outlets were aghast at the disgusting things found on what was reported as a laptop that Hunter Biden abandoned at a computer repair store. The laptop contained a raft of damning material, including evidence that Joe Biden was deeply connected to Hunter’s illicit Ukrainian business deals.
The left-wing media assured everyone that the claims that the laptop was really Hunter’s was really all just a Russian disinformation campaign. The laptop was fake, the liberal media insisted.
But now, POLITICO has reported that the laptop was authenticated by an independent source.
Per The Blaze:
Politico’s Playbook newsletter reports that in Schreckinger’s new book, “The Bidens: Inside the First Family’s Fifty-Year Rise to Power,” an independent source who had access to Hunter Biden’s emails confirmed that he received a 2015 email from a top executive at Burisma, a Ukrainian natural gas company, thanking him for a meeting with Joe Biden, who was vice president at the time.
A 2017 email detailing a “lucrative” deal with a Chinese energy company that included a proposed equity breakdown for the parties involved and included the line, “10 held by H for the big guy?” was also verified.

The contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop were reported by the New York Post last October, ahead of the 2020 presidential election. At the time, the Donald Trump campaign alleged that Joe Biden had misused his office as vice president by pressuring government officials in Ukraine into firing a prosecutor who was investigating Burisma. His son, Hunter Biden, was a member of the company’s board.
The emails in the laptop show that Joe has repeatedly lied about not having any personal knowledge about Hunter’s business deals.
Recently liberal columnist Glenn Greenwald slammed the media for quashing reporting on Hunter’s laptop.
I have a copy of Schreckinger's important book and will write about it shortly. 2 points:
1) Kudos to him, as a young journalist, for reporting facts most in the corporate media don't want to hear.
2) Big Tech/Dem censorship of this story before the election was a grave assault

One last reminder: @TheIntercept — founded in 2014, before the current editors arrived, to be *adversarial* to CIA/security state — used an ex-NYT reporter to mindlessly endorse the CIA lie that the Hunter docs were "Russian disinformation" out of desperation to help Biden win. pic.twitter.com/sDJuuOiMjW

It's so easy to recognize and denounce the censorship, repression and propaganda in distant countries we're taught from childhood to hate (Russia). It's more more difficult — and more important — to recognize it in our own. Pre-election censorship of this story was a disgrace.

Amazingly, Facebook and @andymstone — having interfered in our elections by suppressing a story that the CIA, the Intercept and other media outlets lied about by claiming it was Russia disinformation — now refuses to answer questions about the outcome of that "fact-check." 👇 pic.twitter.com/9Zl6s1qJiv

One interesting aspect of the fact that it's a POLITICO reporter with a new book confirming the authenticity of the Hunter docs:
It was POLITICO — through the co-Queen of Russiagate frauds, @NatashaBertrand — who first used CIA to dismiss the docs as "Russian disinformation." pic.twitter.com/eL17sAayHJ

2) CNN's @camanpour — the week before the election — explicitly refusing to discuss the reporting on the Biden family by claiming that it's not the media's job to determine if the documents are or are not authentic. Watch this shit:pic.twitter.com/mkI4Jtd4SN

The pre-election joint censorship campaign by the media, Big Tech & CIA was always a gigantic story. The CIA spun an outright lie about these docs that helped these platforms censor the docs while *journalists* cheered that.
In light of this new book, it's time to re-visit it.

Please watch this video from CNN's Wolf Blitzer show shortly before the election. Now that we have (more) proof that the Biden docs were always genuine, just watch how these people lie. If this doesn't make you furious, and you don't despise this part of the media, you're wrong. pic.twitter.com/MnhkOolecp

Look at the campaign video @HuffPost produced for Joe Biden masquerading as a pre-election "news report" that was full of lies: no other way to say it. And their *only* basis was mimicking CIA's claims.
Again, however much you despise these media outlets, it's not enough. pic.twitter.com/sJn559PDCO
