CBS "News:" Breaking: We've Just Verified That That Laptop That Everyone Knew Was Authentic In September 2020 Is In Fact Authentic

Really, didja?

Didja? Didja?

CBS Mornings
@CBSMornings

CBS News has obtained data from a laptop purported to have belonged to Hunter Biden. The data came directly from the source who said they provided it to the FBI under subpoena.

@CBS_Herridge shares what was found during an independent forensic review.

Catherine Herridge reports this very late-breaking news, and I think we can assume she's been working to break this "news" since... September 2020. I imagine that CBS "News" has put her through "Multiple levels of painstaking editorial oversight and repeated rounds of intense, deeply-reported fact-checking" just to make sure they got this right, and got it right... after it could pose any harm to the Democrats in the elections of 2020 and then 2022.

They just wanted to make sure all the i's were dotted and t's were crossed, you know?

Late last week, Tony Bobulinski told Fox News that proof that the "Big Guy" is in fact Joe Biden was coming, and it wouldn't just be obvious implication this time.

Mike Miller at RedState:


During an interview at the Fox News Patriot Awards on Thursday night, Bobulinski said the best news is Americans will no longer have to "take my word for it" in terms of allegations Joe and Hunter were up to their eyeballs in multiple questionable overseas business ventures.


Hunter Biden, in his own words, [has said] he is putting his entire family's family legacy on the line to do business with the Chinese Communist Party [via] CEFC. He says that in his own words, in numerous text messages and other things I've provided both to the FBI and other whistleblowers, so don't take my word for it.

The good news is Congressman Comer and Congressman [Jim] Jordan have troves of documents that will corroborate all this -- but 1,000%, Joe Biden 'the big guy'.


...

Bobulinkski continued:


I've had 100 people [at the Patriot Awards] probably ask me, 'Hey, is justice going to happen? What's going on with this?' And my message to them is 'Just be patient.' I think Congressman Comer is very focused.

Not to worry, Tony, Congressman Comer is ready to rumble:


In the 118th Congress, this committee [the House Oversight Committee] will evaluate the status of Joe Biden's relationship with his family's foreign partners and whether he is a President who is compromised or swayed by foreign dollars and influence. I want to be clear: This is an investigation of Joe Biden, and that's where the committee will focus in this next Congress.

Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan, presumably the incoming chair of the powerful House Judiciary Committee, is ready, as well -- including to also focus on the alleged involvement of the FBI in the Hunter Biden scandal cover-up:


We're going to try to help Representative Comer and the team here at Oversight with our work on Judiciary, but with a specific focus on what the FBI was doing. There's [sic] so many questions that need answers so we can get to the bottom of this.

More at the link. The White House is pumping out the spin that Comer is a "conspiracy theorist." So pay no attention to Hunter and Joe Biden's former business partners or their voluminous authenticated email conversations and contracts with Hunter, James, and Joe Biden.

Jonathan Turley writes -- wishcasts, really -- that Merrick Garland's corrupt, impeachable decision to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate Trump will backfire on the Biden's, as the stench of corruption grows so great that not even an in-the-bag propaganda media can ignore the fact that he refuses to appoint one for Hunter and "The Big Guy." Remember, an AG is supposed to appoint a special prosecutor when a case involves a principle in the White House or any matter upon which his own judgement would be compromised, and Joe Biden being "The Big Guy" in a Chinese payoff scheme would count. As would his corrupt drug addict whoremonger bagman son soliciting bribes for Joe.

Merrick Garland cannot credibly make judgements on any of this, and so must, by law, appoint a non-conflicted special prosecutor to take over these matters.

But he refuses to. Precisely because he is conflicted, and is determined to protect his Democrat patrons.

But they'll pay no price for this -- because the Democrats, the legal profession, and the media are all post-ethics. It's now pure Will to Power.

You know -- like fascists.

They had to become fascists to "beat the fascists," you see.

When he announced the appointment of Jack Smith to investigate Trump, Garland explained that "based on recent developments, including the former president's announcement that he is a candidate for president in the next election, and the sitting president's stated intention to be a candidate as well, I have concluded that it is in the public interest to appoint a special counsel."

In making that case for a Trump special counsel, however, Garland may have made a case against himself for refusing to appoint a Biden special counsel in the Hunter Biden scandal. Garland's department is investigating potential wrongdoing that could involve the other referenced candidate, President Biden, in the Hunter Biden matter. That investigation should be looking at numerous alleged references to the president using code names such as "the Big Guy" in the context of receiving percentages on foreign deals and other perks. Yet Garland has refused to appoint a special counsel in an investigation that not only could prove highly embarrassing to the president but, in the view of some of us, could implicate him as well.

Congressional Democrats repeatedly voted to block an investigation of this alleged multimillion-dollar influence peddling by the Biden family. House Republicans are now poised to look into these foreign deals -- and how the Justice Department may have stymied or slowed any investigation before the 2020 election.

While the special counsel appointment helps insulate Garland from claims about the use of his department for political purposes on any Trump charges, he may soon face new challenges, including possible contempt referrals if Biden officials or Democrats refuse to supply information or testimony to Republican House investigators. Garland has sharply departed from prior cases in which the Justice Department largely refused to prosecute such contempt referrals; he has been very active in pursuing Trump officials who failed to cooperate with Congress. He now may be asked to show the same willingness to pursue those who obstruct or defy House Republican investigations.

26 How the F does appointing yet another "special counsel" to persecute Trump in any way "insulate" this lawless politicized s-hole of a DOJ from anything? It just spectacularly confirms it, and takes it to new depths.

Is this supposed to be about the ridiculous "classified document" thing? Which the DOJ itself has already backed down on? After lowering the country another few notches, with a raid on a former president's residence? And about which there is no serious legal aura of legitimacy, given the topic and the hitherto flexible and undefined parameters of presidential declassification authority?

Even the "skeptics" and "critics" are so far gone off into the shallow end, that the US that was is now not even an echo of a memory in *their* minds.

Nonsense. The new special prosecutor for Trump is to insulate Garland. When it fails - and it will - Garland can say "not my fault." The failure will con some rubes into thinking the system works, and energize the left's insane base while giving the media more fodder to go after Trump in the hopes of moving an election that will probably have high turnout.

It's a transparently stupid op.

43 The Special Cousel's primary purpose is to keep McCarthy & Co away from any J6 or MAL investigative documents. They don't want the sham investigations or videos from the Capitol exposed by the Republican House, so they are ringfencing everything under the aegis of an 'investigation'. If they happen to nail Trump, that's good. The primary purpose of this is to keep docs away from Republicans. If they happen to distract the MSM from the demise of FTX, even better.

Not an original theory of mine, btw, but it makes a lot of sense.

Not surprising. It isn't hugely popular here, despite the number of kids who play it.

If you might be a pro-quality athlete in this country and you're training hard to take a shot at that when you're in junior high and beyond, are you going to focus on soccer? Or will you focus on a sport where you can make real, serious, crazy amounts of money? If NBA players were soccer players instead, they'd probably dominate. But they aren't soccer players. The money's in basketball. Or football. Or baseball. Or hockey.

American soccer doesn't get the best athletes in the country, because they go where they can make more money.

Ol' Cump had a bit of a nervous breakdown when set in charge of the Kentucky front in the Fall of 61 and was relieved mostly because the press was calling him 'insane'. After a bit of rest he got back into the game as US Grant's subordinate helping organize the rear areas and he found Grant's calmer nature a great help in managing his own high strung personality.

But he never forgave the press. When he ran his supply ships past Vicksburg in 63 for the flank march Grant had ordered only one ship was sunk, one that was carrying two reporters. WT gloated "They must have been weighted down by their lofty ideas that they sunk like stones". I believe both were found on the riverbank by the Rebs.

There's no there, there. Hunter Biden is a smart guy, his last name opened some doors for him and he made some money. So? I lost count of the years Trump had Rudy trying to find dirt on Hunter. There was no there, there.

How is this helping inflation and gas prices again? Dems need to keep the pressure on regarding GOPs lack of ability for leadership.

It's not about the "truth." It’s about making as much as possible from that laptop public. The GQP want to humiliate, embarrass and denigrate the Bidens as much as possible. It’s right out of Ken Start’s playbook. The FBI has the laptop. If there was anything criminal on it they would have referred it to the proper authorities.

Enron scandal was so old-economy. They used bad accounting and hype to build a giant scheme to add huge value and inflate the price of things sort of real in the energy markets. FTX used much more modern, advanced methods of no accounting whatsoever and a giant pyramid scheme to massively inflate the value of things with no inherent worth, and don't even exist outside of computer memory. True criminal genius.

185 ot surprising. It isn't hugely popular here, despite the number of kids who play it.

If you might be a pro-quality athlete in this country and you're training hard to take a shot at that when you're in junior high and beyond, are you going to focus on soccer? Or will you focus on a sport where you can make real, serious, crazy amounts of money? If NBA players were soccer players instead, they'd probably dominate. But they aren't soccer players. The money's in basketball. Or football. Or baseball. Or hockey.

American soccer doesn't get the best athletes in the country, because they go where they can make more money.

We played better games than Soccer as a kid, like Smear where one kid kicked a ball out to the waiting gang, and when one guy got it he was tackled by all the other kids.

It will make no difference either way. Expose it or bury it, subpoena it or not, comply with a subpoena or not. Whatever. Nothing will come of it. Even if somehow Biden were to go down, there will just be a different puppet to take his place. The system keeps doing what it does.

It's an infernal machine and it cares not one whit about subpoena power or the will of the people.

One of these things is not like the other. Biden going down is a big fucking deal just as it would be a big fucking deal if a Republican president went down. And sooner or later people are going to start asking why did the FBI sit on this information for over 2 years and where is the special counsel for this corruption?

The system has been blowing a few gears lately. Julie Kelly has been reporting that the FBI was heavily involved in Jan 6th and now there is actual proof in court documents. Things go on until they don't. Democrats aren't a group of super geniuses. They managed to infiltrate a lot of organizations but they aren't going to be able to sustain this corruption forever.

On that I don't disagree.

Where I disagree is the notion that it will matter in the sense of something like "justice" or "the country survives." That which cannot go on will not go one and they are not magical wizards, but they are it absolute, unquestionable, total and complete control of every government institution and most of the non-government ones.

So when it "blows its gears" and finally fails, it will fail in totality. Then it's Mad Max for a bit while some new system rises out of the ashes. But this system is not salvageable. None of this noise-making will matter in the slightest. It continues until it can't and when it finally can't, the entire thing will grind to a halt on its titanic axle and blast into pieces. If you're lucky enough not to get hit by the shrapnel of that event, you'll be in the position of being able to try to form whatever comes next. But it will be what comes *next.* This system is doomed.

Posted by: polynikes at November 21, 2022 04:29 PM (QKJnV)

I haven't researched the exact reasoning why they did not allocate fleet air carriers to convoy duties in the NA but most likely it was higher priority tasks elsewhere. Wasp was used a few times to ferry planes to Malta when one of the British carriers trying it was sunk or damaged.

Then the issue started to be we were running out in the Pacific. We lost Lexington, Yorktown, Saratoga kept getting damaged, then we lost the Hornet and finally the Wasp. It took a bit after that before the new construction of fleet carriers kicked in and we didn't need fast carriers for escort duties or ASW work

The English took about a year or so to introduce it because nobody in a navy likes losing their pretty little escort toys to poking about with merchies. And they often sent unescored ships if they were 'fast' even then.

The NA gap was not a big deal right after the US entered the war because the German subs moved right off the coast of the US and Caribbean and went to town on unconvoyed unescorted merchies for a few months until the Navy got its act together.
