Corruption? I wouldn’t be very much surprised, simply because rich people in positions of power are like that.
The part about the informant reminded me of another informant that swore up and down that Saddam Hussein had huge stockpiles of “weapons of mass destruction” -remember that? There weren’t any.
By a trick of memory, I am also reminded of the previous Gulf war, and the harrowing testimony before Congress of a 15 year old girl about witnessing Iraqi soldiers emptying and taking incubators from a Kuwaiti hospital and leaving Kuwaiti babies to die on the cold hard floor. This also turned out to be a completely fictional story, told by (it was later revealed) the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador, that had been coached by a public relations firm called Hill & Knowlton, that was at the time contracted by the Kuwaiti government.
So I guess you can’t always trust informants or evidence produced by republican activity.
If you haven’t noticed the trend I will spell it out for you.
The “evidence” on the laptop never existed.
Just like the WMDs and the Iraqi’s stealing incubators in Kuwait it is a lie.
One you ate up with no evidence because it lets you believe “the other team” are every bit as corrupt as your own “team” clearly is.

It’s quite the bubble you live in if this is the first time you’ve heard it.
As I said there is a clear pattern of behaviour and there is zero reason to expect differently this time.
Oh and a neat factor may be that Im a cyber security expert, and I can tell you that laptop is worse than worthless.
For 7 years Republicans have been screeching about Hunter and… nothing.
Meanwhile Trumps maga insurrectionists are all going to jail.
But there’s an informant!
I love how it was so obvious to anyone with more than two braincells to rub together.
The informant being charged for lying is just perfect.
Then the informant being paid by a Trump owned proxy…. Ahh it’s just too easy.

Prove it.
Who could have guessed the Hunter claims were fake? No one! Absolutely no one.

What a compelling argument you’ve put forth

Winter, can you at least bother with an argument?
Pizza, please stop replying when you’ve reported a comment.
Starting to feel like I should make that a rule.
When you fail to act on a report, I’m left with the conclusion that you believe a given comment to be civil enough. At that point you have no argument. Either act on reports or quit complaining that things turn into slap fights. Fuck around enough and have fun getting the community banned.
