    ^Pro tip to Marc Theissen and CTRL-C lackey @Os Trigonum:

    - if you're still trying to convince people and your editors that something that has been public knowledge for over 2 years or more, is "actually a huge scandal" when pretty much nobody outside your core demo of wackos agrees...

    -> chances are it may not be "a huge scandal".

    Look at the title of this thread @Os Trigonum - its why your boomer ass can't make fetch happen here despite years of trying.

    But by all possible means -

    Keep.
    Hope.
    Alive.

    So we are still going with the NYPost story that Rudy Giuliani came across a copy of Hunter’s from a blind computer repair technician?

    That hasn’t changed right?

    Trumps favorite pollster and right wing pollster has biden above water now. Once inflation cools down and Republicans run hunter biden shams they'll just help biden more and more. How out of touch are Republicans?

    The same people here demanding that we need to know what was on Hunter’s laptop are the same people who cried about increasing IRS agents because they may have to disclose all their expenses, and say the government doesn’t need to be privy to all that information.


    Be consistent people.

    You sound kind of unhinged bro. Maybe others don’t care about Hunter’s laptop but you do.

    well now . . . clearly SOME PEOPLE care about Hunter Biden

    Some Hunter Biden allies making plans to go after his accusers
    An array of groups is preparing to defend the president’s son against an expected GOP onslaught, but they lack a unifying strategy

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/12/10/hunter-biden-plans-defense/

    excerpt:

    Some involved in these efforts argue that Hunter Biden and Morris should stay out of the limelight so Democrats can focus on painting the Republican investigations as a partisan political exercise. “No one thinks this strategy of putting Hunter Biden front and center is smart,” said one Democrat involved in the broader effort, who requested anonymity to describe private conversations. “No one, including the White House, thinks this is a smart strategy.”

    The division is in part between associates of Hunter Biden, who tend to favor a more aggressive strategy, and other strategists who want Biden to keep a lower profile. Sources close to Hunter Biden emphasized that they are operating separately from the White House. Brock said his organization also remains independent of Hunter Biden and his team and is following its own strategy.

    Yeah....it's similar to discerning between caring and not caring about the Hunter Biden laptop story that many here seem to have trouble with.

    Before anyone uses the obsolete word of “pedophile”

    please remember the woke rulebook demands we acknowledge the preferred term is : Minor attracted person …or MAPs …which should be part of a protected society with support and guidance …Mmmkay

    let’s allow MAPs to explore their feelings in a environment that safely allows such processing of these feelings

    Twitter’s dumb business failure put politics over profit

    https://nypost.com/2022/12/10/twitters-dumb-business-failure-put-politics-over-profit/

    excerpt:

    One takeaway from the explosive “Twitter Files” case is just how much time top executives at the social media platform had spent on censorship as opposed to doing their fiduciary duty and trying to make money for shareholders.

    Recall: Since 2013 Twitter had been a public company. For all the progressive yearnings for the leaders of our public companies to consider the “greater good” in their corporate decision-making, their ultimate, legally bound duty is to the investor and thus to enhance the value of the enterprise.

    What we are seeing in the Twitter Files drama is that shareholders appear to be a distant second — and maybe third or fourth — in prior management’s concern.

    The wasted hours trying to figure out how to deal with The Post’s Hunter Biden laptop story or whose tweets should be blackballed because they run afoul of progressive orthodoxy is so out of proportion to what any public company’s base mission must entail. My bet: If Twitter wasn’t now in private hands with Elon Musk, the shareholder lawsuits would be flying. And who knows? Musk is such a wild card, he might use the laptop imbroglio, the latest revelations of secret Twitter enemies lists, to make a run at the old guard in court.

    Of course, if your product is hate speech, you want social media platforms to impose limits. If it’s drug dealing, there are laws preventing that as well. That’s not what we’re talking about here. The Twitter Files are about many things — censorship and leftist bias in Big Media and Big Tech being chief among them.

    But it’s also about putting politics above Twitter’s bottom line.

    Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna backs The Post, says Twitter was ‘wrong to censor newspapers’

    https://nypost.com/2022/12/11/rep-khanna-says-twitter-wrong-to-censor-newspapers/

    excerpt:

    The House Democrat who wrote to Twitter about his concerns the company was suppressing free speech after it blocked The Post’s blockbuster reporting on Hunter Biden said Sunday he’s open to holding hearings in Congress about press freedom.

    “It is wrong to censor newspapers. It is wrong to censor journalists,” Rep. Ro Khanna of California said on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.”

    “The New York Post hasn’t written a kind thing about me in my six years in Congress. They’re a conservative-point-of-view paper,” he continued. “But that doesn’t mean that you can stop publishing their pieces or articles or censor their journalists from sharing stories.”
