Hunter hypocrisy
Trump supporters may remember this: Back in early October, over a month before the election, some of the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop, inauspiciously left behind at a computer repair shop, were leaked to the media. We knew this because some rather incriminating photos and videos emerged in several obscure websites and was reported by some online right-leaning news sources. We didn’t have all the information, and there were plenty of unknowns, but it was certainly a huge story in light of the fact that the man’s father was a presidential candidate.
The mainstream media: crickets
Then, later, it was upheld that the laptop was in fact traceable to THE Hunter Biden. These were photos of Hunter in sexually explicit positions with a number of young women (possibly minors). There was evidence in text messages that he had an inappropriate relationship with his underage niece.
In an explosive story from the New York Post, we were alerted to evidence on the laptop of business dealings with Chinese associates. (This may have been the first time the Post outscooped the New York Times, Washington Post, AP and all the major news networks. Amazing!). What we didn’t know was that he had been under investigation for years with regard to this activity. This, in any other context, should have been an incredible, provocative and timely news story, picked up by everyone. If it was Don Junior, they’d be popping the champagne and re-impeaching the President.
The mainstream media: crickets
Finally, one of Hunter’s associates, Tony Bobulinski, told us in an interview that the former VP, the current frontrunner for the presidency of the United States, was profiting from the China business. Along with his brother. It was a family affair.
The mainstream media:
- This is not a legitimate story.
- It’s a waste of time. We’re not going to dignify this with coverage.
- It has nothing to do with Joe, other than evidence of his “unconditional love” for his troubled son.
- Our Joe is a saint, and all the polls have Saint Joe winning by a landslide. Please redirect your attention to our negative coverage of the Trump administration.
Does anyone still take the MSM seriously? Honestly, I’m asking. Do you believe they are a balanced and trustworthy source of information? If you do, I have a bridge to sell you. They’re about as reliable as Facebook’s fact checkers.
I don’t blame Bill Barr for not breaking the story. He’s an AG, responsible for the integrity of the investigations. If he was directly asked about an investigation, it would be interesting to hear what he would have said.
But of course, no one was asking. The media had their donkey blinders on.
What if it had been a Democrat AG, a Democrat investigation, and/or had involved Donald Trump and family? Well, just think about it. This was a legitimate investigation into tangible evidence of corruption – as opposed to the Russian collusion narrative, which was a manufactured accusation followed by years of pricey legal drama. (The interesting thing about Russian collusion is that, per the Democrats, our electoral system went from being entirely vulnerable to widespread interference in 2016, to completely impervious to intervention in 2020. Investigating the 2016 election was 100% necessary; investigating the 2020 election 100% nonsense. Wonder what changed.)
So the MSM ignored Hunter Biden as long as it could… which coincidentally lasted until just after the election. What are they going to do with continuous evidence pouring in that Biden was in fact involved in some shady stuff? Sure, he tried like hell to keep his name out of it, and probably would have gotten away with it too… had it not been for his dimwit son. The same guy who left an incriminating laptop at an electronics repair shop, also requested keys made for his “office mates’, Father Joe, Mother Jill, Uncle Jim and a Chinese emissary to CEFC energy company (an organization with which Joe has vehemently denied being involved).
Well, they’ve started reporting it now that the election is over, as if it has all just broken. As if they’re not 2 months late to the game.
Boy, does NPR have egg on its face.
Or does it? After all, they saved the election. Surveys show that as many as 1 in 6 voters might not have voted for Joe had they known everything about his family’s corruption. Between that and the dubious Democrat votes collected in the wee hours of the morning, who knows what might have happened. Well, Trump supporters have an inkling…
Will Democrat voters hold the media accountable for lying to us about the plausibility of these stories, and their complicity in sweeping dirt under the rug in the interest of winning the American presidency for an apparently corrupt politician? Of course not. This group seems to have forgotten that they were lied to for months before the 2016 and 2020 elections about impending “blue waves” and “statistically impossible” outcomes.
I wonder what will happen when we actually have impeachment-worthy evidence on Joe Biden (if we don’t already). Hmmm… I strongly suspect there’s a backup plan.
