    There is reasonable evidence and suspicion for us to say Trump and his family are up to no good yet you still carp for them.

    Talk about pathetic.

    The most plausible explanation is that this is all made up bullshit.

    ‘I found Hunter’s emails – and I feared I would be MURDERED’: Trump voter reveals he is the Mac repairer with Biden’s secrets…
    2020-10-14

    AndrewAndrew
    • Independent Mac shop owner John Paul MacIsaac, 44, of Wilmington, Delaware, says he is person who turned over Hunter Biden’s emails to the FBI and Giuliani
    • He says he did not initially realize who his customer was but as he entered his name grasped that he was ‘famous’
    • Biden left three damaged laptops with MacIsaac in April 2019 but never came back for them
    • MacIsaac says ‘personal information’ was on ‘messy’ computer
    • Claims he became more fearful as summer 2019 drew on and Hunter’s name appeared in the news
    • He offered two different accounts of whether he contacted the FBI or agents came to him – but handed over the laptop in December 2019
    • He kept a copy because he feared he would be killed by people who ‘work for [Joe] Biden’ and having it was ‘protection’
    • MacIsaac refused to comment on how he came to be in touch with Rudy Giuliani or when after Trump’s personal lawyer reveals the contents of laptop

    I had not read a full article on this and it's even more batshit crazy.

    I’ve taken around 200 hours off and on in the last 15+ years. That is not my personal experience. But I know universities generally lean that way. But you I think your “far left” BS is hyperbole in a general sense. I know some universities are like that though.

    Regardless until you can figure out a way to not be so taken by propaganda and demonize education. You’re going to have an immediate future where you and others like you look like absolute morons by ignoring the science on climate change. Culminating into instances like this year where Trump and others made the year much worse. With more people dying and cratering the economy because science lol.

    But keep doing you bro. It’s fascinating to watch.

    On Wednesday morning, the New York Post published a story alleging that Hunter Biden dropped off a laptop at a Delaware computer store for repair and that the device contained nefarious emails and photos.

    The item was immediately viewed with suspicion, both for the timing of it—coming less than three weeks before the elections—and the path the laptop supposedly took. The Post said that “before turning over the gear,” the owner of the computer repair shop “made a copy of the hard drive and later gave it to former Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s lawyer, Robert Costello.” The story alleged that the Biden son was setting up a meeting between a top executive at a Ukrainian energy firm on which he served and his father, who was then the vice president. The Biden campaign has said no such meeting was scheduled.

    On Wednesday afternoon, a group of reporters, among them a journalist for The Daily Beast, spoke with the owner of the shop, a man named John Paul Mac Isaac who lives in Wilmington, Delaware. The audio of that nearly hour-long question and answer session is below.


    Mac Isaac appeared nervous throughout. Several times, he said he was scared for his life and for the lives of those he loved. He appeared not to have a grasp on the timeline of the laptop arriving at his shop and its disappearance from it. He also said the impeachment of President Trump was a “sham.” Social media postings indicate that Mac Isaac is an avid Trump supporter and voted for him in the 2016 election.

    Mac Isaac said he had a medical condition that prevented him from actually seeing who dropped off the laptop but that he believed it to be Hunter Biden’s because of a sticker related to the Beau Biden Foundation that was on it. He said that Hunter Biden actually dropped off three laptops for repair, an abundance of hardware that he chalked up to the Biden son being “rich.”

    Throughout the interview, Mac Isaac switched back and forth from saying he reached out to law enforcement after viewing the files in the laptop to saying that it was actually the Federal Bureau of Investigation that contacted him. At one point, Mac Isaac claimed that he was emailing someone from the FBI about the laptop. At another point he claimed a special agent from the Baltimore office had contacted him after he alerted the FBI to the device’s existence. At another point, he said the FBI reached out to him for “help accessing his drive.”

    Mac Isaac referenced the infamous Seth Rich conspiracy theory—which holds that a DNC staffer who police say was murdered in a botched robbery was actually killed off by Clinton allies because he leaked committee emails—as reason for his paranoia. He said he made a copy of the hard drive for the purposes of personal protection.

    “They probably knew I had a copy because I was pretty vocal about not wanting to get murdered,” he said, “so I’m going to have a copy.”

    Mac Isaac refused to answer specific questions about whether he had been in contact with Rudy Giuliani before the laptop drop-off or at any other time before the Post article’s publication. Pressed on his relationship with Giuliani, he replied: “When you’re afraid and you don’t know anything about the depth of the waters that you’re in, you want to find a lifeguard.”

    Seeming to realize he’d said too much, he added: “Ah, ****.”


    So Rudy was your lifeguard? the reporters asked. “No comment,” he replied.

    I just read that article and I see that he MacIsaac cites the Seth Rich conspiracy story for why he's afraid for his life.

    Anyway the most telling part about this is that according to the account the FBI has had a the computer for months and same with Giuliani. I can understand Giuliani sitting on anything until October but maybe not the FBI.

    Good points to ask but I think you're expecting too much for now.

    a. Hunter admits to giving the money.
    b. It's likely real. Keep praying it isn't but no one claims it isn't and if Hunter does then I imagine he'll face further charges. He won't though because he wants to keep this away from being investigated in courts, otherwise he'd have no problem speaking up.
    c. This isn't the only proof. This story is connected to Joe Biden on video admitting to doing his Son's company's dirty work. But if you are expecting a clear explicit I did it statement, good luck. Crimes get investigated off reasonable suspicions usually and more comes later.
    d. The shop owner and the info was verified by Rudy G's team. Trust them or don't trust them. I think this is more than likely legit, otherwise they wouldn't use it. Go ahead and disbelieve it. But I don't want to hear from you or others discounting it about "Russia Gate" after years of investigation took place with less evidence and no results. For now it seems to be legit. A crackhead who is too doped up to remember where he dropped off a laptop is NOT a surprise. Hell, a crackhead forgetting entire days is not a surprise. The dude forfeited his property and the computer repair man likely feared for his life when he realized what he had. Thus the multiple copies he gave to his friends. Oh wait, let me guess... he is a Russian asset!

    Going to Rudy G for political reasons when you have dirt on a criminal VP isn't really a crime if you own the computer. It's a move to prevent people from whackin ya. And if you think the Bidens wouldn't you're in lala land. That life guard statement is literal.

    That isn't what is shown in the emails. Go back and read the thread. You've jumped to a bunch of conclusions which haven't happened.

    If you've already done that then perhaps you can answer these questions.

    1. Who got what out of the deal and the meeting? We need to have that for there to be a quid pro quo.

    2. The supposed emails (which are most likely fake) only insinuate the payment. Where is the proof of any payment or splitting of the salary?

    Some other facts.

    1. The Ukraine AG wasn't investigating anything dealing with Burisma at the time Biden (along with the IMF and most of our other allies around the world were trying to get the corrupt AG out of the govt.)

    2. The things the AG were investigating were supposed to have happened before Hunter ever even worked there.

    So Hunter had zero reason to have an interest in having the AG removed. Having the AG removed wasn't a goal of just the Obama administration and Biden, but also the International Monetary Fund and our allies. At the time Joe Biden applied pressure to get that done, the corrupt Ukrainian AG was not even investigating the company Hunter was working for anymore.

    So there is nothing there illegal, unethical, or to show that Joe Biden did anything.

    Hunter probably got the job because Joe was his father. But that isn't Joe's doing, isn't illegal, and doesn't matter.

    LOL.

    Yes, Rudy G's crackpot team of diligent investigators with their long track record of solid legitimate work.

    Maybe. I am not an expert on Rudy's mannerisms so I can't speak to what he was really thinking, but what happened in the video was:

    Rudy laughed dismissively when the interviewer brought it up. Then he shook his head side to side (typically indicating "No") and said "oh, come on... this is petty fogging nonsense."

    Then he switches topics, saying "we can deal with the process all you want," (whateverthe**** that is supposed to mean) "but nobody dealt with the process when they stole Donald Trump's tax returns!"

    I think we will find out about the FBI soon. You do realize they are politically split though? Maybe they hid this fact because they are pro Biden.

    So you think they'd go this far and risk getting cleaned out in court and having their reputations ruined entirely? Got it. I mean if you wanna go full partisan psycho, go ahead.

    And maybe there are space aliens in the FBI as well. You are saying crap with zero basis. FBI agents can support any number of candidates and still be professional enough to do their work and not have that influence their decision making.

    Rudy Gs reputation has been ruined entirely long before this. Are you operating under misunderstanding that Rudy G still has a good reputation?

    Well if it isn't fogging, please tell us all here what the meta data means for this? Provide some details. Meta data doesn't actually prove much considering it can be changed and may have been changed for any number of reasons that we may not know. Maybe it is related to the process of the investigation. Maybe Rudy doesn't want to give it away.

    ooOOOooo sick burn but you're just getting into insults now instead of considering the reality of what is being brought forward and the consequences of faking something like this. You are talking about some serious scandal if true. I highly doubt it broski.

    Would you then acknowledge that Giuliani and the owner of the repair shop are pro-Trump then and it is in their interest to make more of this than might actually be there?

    Horseshit. They already put on a horse and pony show for the Dems to jam up Trump with LESS than we have on Biden. They intentionally went on numerous witch hunts for partisan reasons. You think like a damn child.

    As I understand it, this could mean that the photos were altered. I'm not sure why Hunter Biden would alter photos in a way that would put himself in a compromising position.

    I think it's relevant. Maybe Rudy does have something up his sleeve and he's playing 3D chess, but the way he dismissed it all makes me think that's not the case.
