“She’s holding it and says, ‘I want to give you this,'” Whipple told KSAZ-TV in Phoenix.

Kim received a big surprise this week when a stranger decided to drop off this note for her…along with 60 dollars.
She says this person’s kindness is helping her to heal. ? @FOX10Phoenix pic.twitter.com/nAJX9XxIxW — Irene Snyder FOX10 (@IreneSnyderTV) October 19, 2020

The other “ JB ” referenced in that email is Jim Biden , Joe ’ s brother.
” Contrary to repeated statements made by Joe Biden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s business dealings , Bobulinski reported Biden was very much aware and in fact involved .
“ Hunter Biden called his dad ‘ the Big Guy ’ or ‘ my Chairman , ’ and frequently referenced asking him for his sign-off or advice on various potential deals that we were discussing , ” Bobulinski said .
“ I ’ ve seen Vice President Biden saying he never talked to Hunter about his business .
I ’ ve seen firsthand that that ’ s not true , because it wasn ’ t just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they were putting the Biden family name and its legacy on the line.
” According to Bobulinski , the Chinese did not really care about a return on investment in entering this deal with the Bidens , but political leverage .
“ I realized the Chinese were not really focused on a healthy financial ROI , ” he said .
“ They were looking at this as a political or influence investment .
“ Once I realized that Hunter wanted to use the company as his personal piggy bank by just taking money @ @ @ @ @ @ @ came from the Chinese , I took steps to prevent that from happening , ” Bobulinski said .

westernjournal--2020-10-22--Nancy Pelosi Stonewalls Biden Question She Hates, Then Lapdog Press Bails Her Out

When it comes to the growing alleged Biden corruption scandals , the speaker of the House doesn ’ t have a lot to say .
In an imperious moment worthy of Lewis Carroll ’ s Queen of Heart , House Speaker Nancy Pelosi shut down a reporter Thursday for having the temerity to ask about the rising tide of allegations surrounding her party ’ s nominee for the presidency .
And the submissive Washington establishment media just bowed and obeyed .
The disgraceful intersection of dishonest journalism and partisan politics was on display at Pelosi ’ s weekly news conference @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Kerry Picket attempted to question the speaker about “ serious allegations of corruption involving Joe Biden.
” Pelosi never even let her finish .
“ I ’ m sorry , I ’ m not answering your question , ” the masked Pelosi said , holding up her palm to Picket ’ s face .
“ We ’ re talking about the coronavirus .
That ’ s what I … I don ’ t have all day for questions … Anybody have a question on the coronavirus negotiations ?
” She was dutifully offered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to talk about .
Check it out here ( and note that no questioner deviated from Pelosi ’ s wishes ) : Why should Pelosi be bothered about increasingly credible allegations that Joe Biden ’ s family is trading off the family name ?
Don ’ t these reporters know their place ?
It ’ s the Pyongyang approach to dealing with the news media , and clearly , the liberal media corps doesn ’ t have a problem with it .
It goes without saying that any Republican who tried to stonewall @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the middle of a snarling pack of journalists on the attack in support of their colleague .
Look at how White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany is treated on a regular basis by CNN ’ s Jim Acosta and his fellow jackals .
But when the nation ’ s top elected Democrat essentially orders the media corps to ask the questions she wants , the watchdogs turn into lapdogs .
RELATED : Wolf Blitzer Forced To End Pelosi Interview as She Refuses To Stop Attacking Him Any thinking American — much less @ @ @ @ @ @ @ how biased the mainstream media is .
But the lengths the lickspittle media is willing to lower itself in the 2020 election year should be alarming to everyone , regardless of political affiliation .
It ’ s probably too late for the Hollywood types , or even the preening peacocks of propaganda who fill the nation ’ s television sets in the non-Fox media .
But what , exactly do liberals in less rarified world expect is going to happen if Trump loses the November election and the White House is taken over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ old man , whose political party is in outright control of the largest mainstream media outlets , the social media giants and the soft propagandists of the entertainment world ?
Do the college-educated suburbanites we hear so much about think that Lord Acton ’ s immortal statement about absolute power has been repealed in the 21st century ?
Do the traditionally Democratic urban sophisticates and urban working classes think they ’ re going to be able to trust an obsequious Fourth Estate that has long since lost its moral foundation ?
It ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have spent a good deal of the Year of Our Lord 2020 denouncing the institution of slavery — which was abolished in this country more than 150 years ago .
As Pelosi ’ s imperious news conference proved , if they get their way in November , they might find out what having a master really means .
And they ’ re not going to like it .

it’s amazing how they can say, no i’m not answering that and the reporters just meekly follow along, but Trump, nope, they scream and carry on — Cat (@catmann3200) October 22, 2020
Isn’t it easy to see how the press acts so much differently to Nancy? Almost like puppies performing tricks to get a tiny treat. Prolly made in Chyna BTW — JP (@Jimbo1wy) October 22, 2020
Any thinking American — much less a thinking conservative — knows full well how biased the mainstream media is.
But the lengths the lickspittle media is willing to lower itself in the 2020 election year should be alarming to everyone, regardless of political affiliation.
It’s probably too late for the Hollywood types, or even the preening peacocks of propaganda who fill the nation’s television sets in the non-Fox media.
Would reporters have stood for this from a Republican? Yes No

But what, exactly do liberals in less rarified world expect is going to happen if Trump loses the November election and the White House is taken over by a doddering, possible criminal, old man, whose political party is in outright control of the largest mainstream media outlets, the social media giants and the soft propagandists of the entertainment world?
Do the college-educated suburbanites we hear so much about think that Lord Acton’s immortal statement about absolute power has been repealed in the 21st century?
Do the traditionally Democratic urban sophisticates and urban working classes think they’re going to be able to trust an obsequious Fourth Estate that has long since lost its moral foundation?
It’s not going to happen.
Liberals have spent a good deal of the Year of Our Lord 2020 denouncing the institution of slavery — which was abolished in this country more than 150 years ago.
As Pelosi’s imperious news conference proved, if they get their way in November, they might find out what having a master really means.
And they’re not going to like it.

westernjournal--2020-10-22--Liberal Editor Turns on Leftists, Exposes Giuliani-Borat Video as Complete Fraud

It ’ s impossible to overstate how seriously the establishment media is taking Sacha Baron Cohen and the return of his character Borat , and this was even before they thought he ’ d managed to disgrace former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani .
In an obsequious profile of Cohen in The New York Times published Saturday , Maureen Dowd portrayed the man behind Borat , Ali G and Bruno as something akin to a combined reincarnation of Charlie Chaplin and George Orwell , all held together by a glue made out of the milk of truth and human kindness @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the character “ has been compared to a raunchy de Tocqueville.
” Right .
We all remember that part in “ Democracy in America ” where de Tocqueville described two town councilmen wrestling clothed on the floor of a New England town hall meeting ; Cohen ’ s Borat merely updated it by taking the clothes off the characters and moving it to a hotel room .
Cohen ’ s de Tocquevilleness , one takes from the article , is that both the real French author and the fictive Kazakh reporter surveyed @ @ @ @ @ @ @ You can see how they can make that conflation by comparing some of their thoughts on the matter .
• Alexis de Toqueville in 1835 , talking about a difference between those on the Continent and those in the New World : “ The European generally submits to a public officer because he represents a superior force ; but to an American he represents a right .
In America it may be said that no one renders obedience to man , but to justice and to law.
” • Borat in 2006 , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ : “ I feel like American movie star Dirty Harold .
[ points gun ] Go ahead , make my day , Jew.
” • Borat in 2020 : We don ’ t really have any telling quotes yet — the sequel to “ Borat : Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan ” releases Friday — but we ’ re all more evil and bigoted than we were 14 years ago .
“ In 2005 , you needed a character like Borat who was misogynist , racist , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ inner prejudices , ” Cohen told Dowd .
“ Now those inner prejudices are overt .
Racists are proud of being racists.
” And that — you ’ ll be shocked to hear — is because of Donald Trump , according to Cohen .
When our commander in chief is “ an overt racist , an overt fascist … it allows the rest of society to change their dialogue , too , ” he said .
There was also Cohen ’ s assessment of what he said was Trump ’ s media manipulation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the very term that was being used against him , ‘ fake news , ’ and use it against every journalist that had journalistic integrity , ” he told Dowd .
Yes , well , about that .
It turns out Cohen/Borat — currently reaching for some form of “ journalistic integrity , ” believe it or not — might have been creating some fake news of his own .
The most talked-about scene from the new film involves Trump lawyer Giuliani apparently being seduced by an actress playing Borat ’ s daughter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ scene from “ Borat Subsequent Moviefilm : Delivery of Prodigious Bribe to American Regime for Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan ” ( hereafter referred to as “ Borat 2 ” because the long title joke thing regarding Eastern Europeans not getting English was only vaguely funny the first time ) provided by The Guardian , “ the former New York mayor and current personal attorney to Donald Trump is seen reaching into his trousers and apparently touching his genitals while reclining on a bed in the presence of the actor playing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ posing as a TV journalist.
” “ Following an obsequious interview for a fake conservative news program , the pair retreat at her suggestion for a drink to the bedroom of a hotel suite , which is rigged with concealed cameras , ” the U.K. outlet reported .
“ After she removes his microphone , Giuliani , 76 , can be seen lying back on the bed , fiddling with his untucked shirt and reaching into his trousers .
They are then interrupted by Borat who runs in and says : ‘ She @ @ @ @ @ @ @ too old for you . '
” RELATED : Twitter Allows Salacious Giuliani Disinformation Story but Still Keeps the NY Post Locked Out of Their Account In its review of the film — which wasn ’ t that positive — The Guardian noted that the “ finale in a hotel suite , when Borat and his teenage daughter Tutar confront a certain very prominent ex-politician who appears on the verge of a serious indiscretion … well , that is an amazing coup.
” However , in its news reporting as opposed to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 10 out of 10 Jeremy Corbyn supporters managed to note Giuliani ’ s response to the scene , which was that it was misleading and that his “ fiddling with his untucked shirt ” involved a microphone they ’ d used .
He said that was decontextualized .
“ I had to take off the electronic equipment , ” Giuliani said on WABC-AM ’ s “ Curtis & Juliet ” show in July after the incident , according to The New York Times .
“ And when the electronic equipment came off , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and my shirt came a little out , although my clothes were entirely on .
I leaned back , and I tucked my shirt in , and at that point , at that point , they have this picture they take which looks doctored , but in any event , I ’ m tucking my shirt in .
I assure you that ’ s all I was doing.
” And then there was what happened subsequently .
“ This guy comes running in , wearing a crazy , what I would say was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ told the New York Post that same month .
“ It was a pink bikini , with lace , underneath a translucent mesh top , it looked absurd .
He had the beard , bare legs , and wasn ’ t what I would call distractingly attractive .
“ I only later realized it must have been Sacha Baron Cohen .
I thought about all the people he previously fooled and I felt good about myself because he didn ’ t get me.
” There was also , according to the WABC interview @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a salacious encounter that didn ’ t make it into the film .
“ At one point she explained to me some problems she had .
I actually prayed with her , ” he said .
“ And then I had to leave .
I had my jacket on .
I was fully clothed at all times.
” After reports about the Borat incident hit social media on Wednesday , Giuliani said in a series of tweets that the scene was “ a complete fabrication.
” He pointed to the Post ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the scene that “ after rewatching it 10 times , it looks to me like an exaggeration through editing.
” He also mentioned the timing of the release of the scene came as Giuliani was “ preparing much bigger dumps off of the hard drive from hell , ” referring to Hunter Biden ’ s computer , which has spawned damning reports about Biden and his father , Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden .
I know your reaction .
“ Yeah , sure — of course he ’ d say that.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of those who dealt with it — such as Stephen Colbert , the Brinker Hadley of late-night television .
“ I take off a mic every night , ” the CBS host said , according to The Daily Beast .
“ Never once have I reclined on a king-sized bed and then launched a fact-finding mission to my own groin.
” Ho , ho .
Except it wasn ’ t just the New York Post that thought it was “ an exaggeration through editing.
” Consider Ben Dreyfuss , editor with the far-left @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now seen the scene with Rudy Giuliani and though it is creepy for other reasons it is being described on twitter in a false way , ” he tweeted Wednesday .
“ He does not have his hand down his pants in a sexual way .
He is tucking his shirt back in after she untucks it removing his mic.
” While saying there are “ parts of this scene that are creepy , ” Dreyfuss noted it was “ confusingly edited for comedic purposes which makes sense since this is a comedy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
It would be good to keep that in mind in light of the flattening of media where everything can seem like everything else.
” Well , to be fair , what does Ben Dreyfuss know about the editing process on comedies ?
He ’ s a Mother Jones editor , after all .
It ’ s not like he has a whole lot of experience with Hollywood films , and … [ plays with earpiece ] What was that ?
… I ’ m being told Ben Dreyfuss is actually the son @ @ @ @ @ @ @ right , but still .
In his interview with The Times , Cohen said of the film that “ we wanted it to be a reminder to women of who they ’ re voting for — or who they ’ re not voting for .
If you ’ re a woman and you don ’ t vote against this guy , then know what you ’ re doing for your gender.
” We assume part of this had to do with the implied misogyny of scenes like this .
However , one assumes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the president .
“ I remember my late father watching Trump on the campaign trail in 2016 .
I said , ‘ What do you think of him ?
’ He said , ‘ Two things .
He ’ s extremely entertaining .
Far more entertaining than Hillary [ Clinton ] .
Two , he ’ s a fascist , ' ” Cohen said .
“ My dad was born in 1932 .
He ’ d seen fascists on the streets , [ British Union of Fascists leader Oswald ] Mosley ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ knew what fascism was.
” That ’ s powerful stuff from that bawdy modern de Tocqueville — a man fighting fake news and fascist enablers such as Rudy Giuliani through selectively edited scenes like these which remind us where our “ inner prejudices ” have become “ overt ” under Donald Trump .
Surely you ’ ll concede his film did nothing to further the impression this was all “ fake news.

It’s impossible to overstate how seriously the establishment media is taking Sacha Baron Cohen and the return of his character Borat, and this was even before they thought he’d managed to disgrace former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
In an obsequious profile of Cohen in The New York Times published Saturday, Maureen Dowd portrayed the man behind Borat, Ali G and Bruno as something akin to a combined reincarnation of Charlie Chaplin and George Orwell, all held together by a glue made out of the milk of truth and human kindness.
As for Borat, Dowd said, the character “has been compared to a raunchy de Tocqueville.” Right. We all remember that part in “Democracy in America” where de Tocqueville described two town councilmen wrestling clothed on the floor of a New England town hall meeting; Cohen’s Borat merely updated it by taking the clothes off the characters and moving it to a hotel room.
Cohen’s de Tocquevilleness, one takes from the article, is that both the real French author and the fictive Kazakh reporter surveyed the state of the American populace. You can see how they can make that conflation by comparing some of their thoughts on the matter.
• Alexis de Toqueville in 1835, talking about a difference between those on the Continent and those in the New World: “The European generally submits to a public officer because he represents a superior force; but to an American he represents a right. In America it may be said that no one renders obedience to man, but to justice and to law.”
• Borat in 2006, during a scene at a gun shop: “I feel like American movie star Dirty Harold. [points gun] Go ahead, make my day, Jew.”
• Borat in 2020: We don’t really have any telling quotes yet — the sequel to “Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan” releases Friday — but we’re all more evil and bigoted than we were 14 years ago.
“In 2005, you needed a character like Borat who was misogynist, racist, anti-Semitic to get people to reveal their inner prejudices,” Cohen told Dowd. “Now those inner prejudices are overt. Racists are proud of being racists.”
And that — you’ll be shocked to hear — is because of Donald Trump, according to Cohen. When our commander in chief is “an overt racist, an overt fascist … it allows the rest of society to change their dialogue, too,” he said.
There was also Cohen’s assessment of what he said was Trump’s media manipulation: “His brilliance was to commandeer the very term that was being used against him, ‘fake news,’ and use it against every journalist that had journalistic integrity,” he told Dowd.
Yes, well, about that. It turns out Cohen/Borat — currently reaching for some form of “journalistic integrity,” believe it or not — might have been creating some fake news of his own.
The most talked-about scene from the new film involves Trump lawyer Giuliani apparently being seduced by an actress playing Borat’s daughter.
According to a description of the scene from “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm: Delivery of Prodigious Bribe to American Regime for Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan” (hereafter referred to as “Borat 2” because the long title joke thing regarding Eastern Europeans not getting English was only vaguely funny the first time) provided by The Guardian, “the former New York mayor and current personal attorney to Donald Trump is seen reaching into his trousers and apparently touching his genitals while reclining on a bed in the presence of the actor playing Borat’s daughter, who is posing as a TV journalist.”
“Following an obsequious interview for a fake conservative news program, the pair retreat at her suggestion for a drink to the bedroom of a hotel suite, which is rigged with concealed cameras,” the U.K. outlet reported.
“After she removes his microphone, Giuliani, 76, can be seen lying back on the bed, fiddling with his untucked shirt and reaching into his trousers. They are then interrupted by Borat who runs in and says: ‘She’s 15. She’s too old for you.'”
In its review of the film — which wasn’t that positive — The Guardian noted that the “finale in a hotel suite, when Borat and his teenage daughter Tutar confront a certain very prominent ex-politician who appears on the verge of a serious indiscretion … well, that is an amazing coup.”
However, in its news reporting as opposed to the review, the official news source of 10 out of 10 Jeremy Corbyn supporters managed to note Giuliani’s response to the scene, which was that it was misleading and that his “fiddling with his untucked shirt” involved a microphone they’d used. He said that was decontextualized.
“I had to take off the electronic equipment,” Giuliani said on WABC-AM’s “Curtis & Juliet” show in July after the incident, according to The New York Times. “And when the electronic equipment came off, some of it was in the back and my shirt came a little out, although my clothes were entirely on. I leaned back, and I tucked my shirt in, and at that point, at that point, they have this picture they take which looks doctored, but in any event, I’m tucking my shirt in. I assure you that’s all I was doing.”
And then there was what happened subsequently.
“This guy comes running in, wearing a crazy, what I would say was a pink transgender outfit,” Giuliani told the New York Post that same month. “It was a pink bikini, with lace, underneath a translucent mesh top, it looked absurd. He had the beard, bare legs, and wasn’t what I would call distractingly attractive.
“I only later realized it must have been Sacha Baron Cohen. I thought about all the people he previously fooled and I felt good about myself because he didn’t get me.”

There was also, according to the WABC interview, evidence that this wasn’t a salacious encounter that didn’t make it into the film.
“At one point she explained to me some problems she had. I actually prayed with her,” he said. “And then I had to leave. I had my jacket on. I was fully clothed at all times.”

(2) In fact, the NY Post today reports “it looks to me like an exaggeration through editing.” As soon as I realized it was a set up I called the police, which has been noted in THR article on July 8th. — Rudy W. Giuliani (@RudyGiuliani) October 21, 2020
He also mentioned the timing of the release of the scene came as Giuliani was “preparing much bigger dumps off of the hard drive from hell,” referring to Hunter Biden’s computer, which has spawned damning reports about Biden and his father, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.

“I take off a mic every night,” the CBS host said, according to The Daily Beast. “Never once have I reclined on a king-sized bed and then launched a fact-finding mission to my own groin.”
Ho, ho. Except it wasn’t just the New York Post that thought it was “an exaggeration through editing.”
Consider Ben Dreyfuss, editor with the far-left publication Mother Jones.
“I have now seen the scene with Rudy Giuliani and though it is creepy for other reasons it is being described on twitter in a false way,” he tweeted Wednesday.
“He does not have his hand down his pants in a sexual way. He is tucking his shirt back in after she untucks it removing his mic.”

While saying there are “parts of this scene that are creepy,” Dreyfuss noted it was “confusingly edited for comedic purposes which makes sense since this is a comedy film and not a 60 Minutes expose. It would be good to keep that in mind in light of the flattening of media where everything can seem like everything else.”

All right, but still.
In his interview with The Times, Cohen said of the film that “we wanted it to be a reminder to women of who they’re voting for — or who they’re not voting for. If you’re a woman and you don’t vote against this guy, then know what you’re doing for your gender.”
We assume part of this had to do with the implied misogyny of scenes like this. However, one assumes there’s also his opinion of the president.
“I remember my late father watching Trump on the campaign trail in 2016. I said, ‘What do you think of him?’ He said, ‘Two things. He’s extremely entertaining. Far more entertaining than Hillary [Clinton]. Two, he’s a fascist,'” Cohen said.
“My dad was born in 1932. He’d seen fascists on the streets, [British Union of Fascists leader Oswald] Mosley’s Blackshirts beating up Jews. And he knew what fascism was.”
That’s powerful stuff from that bawdy modern de Tocqueville — a man fighting fake news and fascist enablers such as Rudy Giuliani through selectively edited scenes like these which remind us where our “inner prejudices” have become “overt” under Donald Trump.
Surely you’ll concede his film did nothing to further the impression this was all “fake news.”

Even in retirement, he viewed Trump’s propositions for the country’s recovery as winning and campaigned for him in 2016.
Four years later, as a member of the population considered extremely vulnerable to the coronavirus, Bowden pressed on through the illness, and he’s now using that victory to again try and help Trump across the goal line.
He said in his statement that he views America as “the greatest country this side of heaven” and that the way to keep it great is to get out and vote to ensure Trump is the country’s head coach for another four years.

“Most of us live in Florida, and I promise you that almost all of us will be voting for Trump, and the ones that don’t won’t be telling me about it,” he said.

“So please, take the time, dadgumit, for the sake of our children and grandchildren, to keep America great and vote for Donald Trump,” he said.
Trump, who also defeated the coronavirus this month, thanked Bowden and shared a few of his words Thursday on Twitter.
The GREAT Bobby Bowden, one of the best coaches EVER in College Football, on his full recovery from Covid-19 “….America is the greatest country this side of heaven. I’ve had a chance to get a lot of wins in my life, but I really wanted to win this one because I wanted…. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 22, 2020
….to be around to vote for President Trump.” Over 300 wins and 2 National Championships. Thank you to Florida State for giving us Bobby Bowden! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 22, 2020
Bowden, who compiled more wins in his coaching career than legendary Alabama football coach Bear Bryant, built tough teams by asking for the most out of his players.
The coach inspired them by demanding the most from himself.
Even at his age, he’s still got the same fight in him, and he’s still asking for the most out of those around him.
But the stakes of the fight the country faces on Nov. 3 are much higher than those of any football game, and Bowden knows that.

westernjournal--2020-10-22--Biden Campaign’s ‘Pathetic’ Response to Explosive Hunter Biden Story Blows Up in Its Face

This is the best they could do ?
As literally every passing days bring a new revelation about suspicious business dealings around Democratic nominee Joe Biden ’ s son Hunter , the Biden campaign has been largely relying on its mainstream media allies to run interference between it and the American people .
But on Wednesday night , as Fox News reported that a laptop and hard drive believed to belong to Hunter Biden was seized as evidence in a federal money-laundering investigation , a Biden campaign spokeswoman mounted an independent defense .
And it didn ’ t fool anyone @ @ @ @ @ @ @ — at least the part that doesn ’ t rely strictly on the mainstream media for its news — problems have been piling up around Joe Biden ’ s son since the New York Post revealed the existence of a laptop computer with damaging material on it .
The laptop , which reportedly belonged to Hunter Biden , had been turned in to a Wilmington computer shop for repairs in April 2019 , according to a Fox News timeline .
When the customer who dropped off the computer never returned , the owner @ @ @ @ @ @ @ owner .
He realized it contained emails that directly related to the Ukraine controversy surrounding President Donald Trump in the fall of last year and alerted the FBI .
The bureau first made a copy of the laptop ’ s hard drive in November , then seized the computer itself in December , according to Fox , but not before the shop ’ s owner had copied the hard drive himself .
He eventually gave a copy to former New York City mayor and personal Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani , who provided it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stories that started publishing Oct. 14 , and exploded the presidential race .
Since then , more revelations have piled up , some directly related to the laptop , some independent of it , but the Biden campaign has been largely silent .
( On Sunday , however , a campaign surrogate agreed that the campaign had not challenged whether the emails on the hard drive were authentic . )
On Wednesday , responding to a Fox News report about Hunter Biden ’ s involvement in a reported money-laundering investigation , Biden campaign @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was long on attacking the source of the story and embarrassingly short on addressing the substance .
“ The Attorney General of Delaware ’ s office indicated that the FBI has ‘ ongoing investigations regarding the veracity of this entire story , ’ ” Bates ’ statement said .
“ And it would be unsurprising for an investigation of a disinformation action involving Rudy Giuliani and those assisting him to involve questions about money laundering , especially since there are other documented inquiries into his dealings .
In fact , Donald Trump ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ president that material furnished by Giuliani should be considered tainted by Russian interference.
” What exactly are Bates and the Biden campaign trying to say here ?
That the FBI is investigating the “ veracity ” of a story about a computer the bureau itself is in possession of ?
Or is it just trying to galvanize its base against the liberal bugaboo that is Rudy Giuliani , and somehow imply that Giuliani is the one who ’ s been involved in money laundering ?
( With Hunter ’ s computer ?
How @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Whatever the goal , what the statement did not do was reassure Americans of whatever political persuasion that a man who has been nominated for president by the Democratic Party is not up to his ears in a family crime operation .
And it was noticed — at least by social media users who can read and think both critically and honestly ( which excludes a fair number of liberals and the entire New York Times newsroom ) .
It ’ s important to note that the Bates statement didn ’ t even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s contents almost certainly prove that Hunter Biden had used his position as the son of a United States vice president for his own gain and those of his business partners .
They almost certainly prove that Joe Biden has been lying to the nation he hopes to lead when he ’ s said he and Hunter never discussed Hunter ’ s business dealings .
Bottom line , the Biden campaign ’ s statement didn ’ t ’ even address the latest allegation to arise — that FBI financial fraud investigators have an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who has the entire liberal establishment behind him as he aims for the presidency of the United States .
Political operations have been attempting the “ non-denial denial ” forever — though the phrase is generally thought to date from the Watergate investigation .
They ’ re almost always paper-thin and can be seen through by all but the most blindly partisan supporters .
In the heat of an election campaign that has the country about evenly divided , it ’ s unthinkable that a presidential campaign would be counting on one at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with the support of the mainstream media .
But obviously , this is the best the Biden campaign can do .
Hopelessly biased legacy media , the airheads of the entertainment world , and the Lords of Big Tech will do everything they can to make it good enough to push Biden over the finish line .
But in the United States , if shouldn ’ t be good enough .

The laptop, which reportedly belonged to Hunter Biden, had been turned in to a Wilmington computer shop for repairs in April 2019, according to a Fox News timeline.

Since then, more revelations have piled up, some directly related to the laptop, some independent of it, but the Biden campaign has been largely silent. (On Sunday, however, a campaign surrogate agreed that the campaign had not challenged whether the emails on the hard drive were authentic.)
On Wednesday, responding to a Fox News report about Hunter Biden’s involvement in a reported money-laundering investigation, Biden campaign spokesman Andrew Bates issued a statement that was long on attacking the source of the story and embarrassingly short on addressing the substance.
“The Attorney General of Delaware’s office indicated that the FBI has ‘ongoing investigations regarding the veracity of this entire story,’” Bates’ statement said.
“And it would be unsurprising for an investigation of a disinformation action involving Rudy Giuliani and those assisting him to involve questions about money laundering, especially since there are other documented inquiries into his dealings. In fact, Donald Trump’s own national security adviser warned the president that material furnished by Giuliani should be considered tainted by Russian interference.”
What exactly are Bates and the Biden campaign trying to say here? That the FBI is investigating the “veracity” of a story about a computer the bureau itself is in possession of?
Or is it just trying to galvanize its base against the liberal bugaboo that is Rudy Giuliani, and somehow imply that Giuliani is the one who’s been involved in money laundering? (With Hunter’s computer? How is that supposed to work?)
Whatever the goal, what the statement did not do was reassure Americans of whatever political persuasion that a man who has been nominated for president by the Democratic Party is not up to his ears in a family crime operation.
And it was noticed — at least by social media users who can read and think both critically and honestly (which excludes a fair number of liberals and the entire New York Times newsroom).
That’s a lot of words while still not denying the laptop is Hunter’s. — BillHobson (@BillHobson1) October 22, 2020
sounds like a very very carefully worded statement — Sumit Tripathi (@Sumit_Tripathi_) October 22, 2020
That’s kind of pathetic really. — No, Seriously (@NealMowery) October 22, 2020
So…..Hunter’s laptop is being investigated for money laundering because….Rudy Giuliani laundered money?? That’s the story they’re going with?? Man they know they’re cooked don’t they? — Darlene Lelonek (@dpvpinBuffalo) October 22, 2020
Still no denial then? They literally can’t bring themselves to call the published emails/texts/photos fake can they? — Liberty Hound ? (@hound_liberty) October 22, 2020
It’s important to note that the Bates statement didn’t even address the allegations that the laptop’s contents almost certainly prove that Hunter Biden had used his position as the son of a United States vice president for his own gain and those of his business partners.
They almost certainly prove that Joe Biden has been lying to the nation he hopes to lead when he’s said he and Hunter never discussed Hunter’s business dealings.
(The Bates statement didn’t address troubling allegations that arose Wednesday that the laptop contained “numerous pictures of underage girls,” as Giuliani told Newsmax.)
Bottom line, the Biden campaign’s statement didn’t’ even address the latest allegation to arise — that FBI financial fraud investigators have an interest in the son of the man who has the entire liberal establishment behind him as he aims for the presidency of the United States.
Political operations have been attempting the “non-denial denial” forever — though the phrase is generally thought to date from the Watergate investigation. They’re almost always paper-thin and can be seen through by all but the most blindly partisan supporters.
In the heat of an election campaign that has the country about evenly divided, it’s unthinkable that a presidential campaign would be counting on one at this stage of the game — even with the support of the mainstream media.
But obviously, this is the best the Biden campaign can do.
Hopelessly biased legacy media, the airheads of the entertainment world, and the Lords of Big Tech will do everything they can to make it good enough to push Biden over the finish line.
But in the United States, if shouldn’t be good enough.
It’s not even close.
