Hunter Biden’s recent admission puts former intelligence agents to shame, but will the media learn from this?
The “laptop from hell” story of 2020 was marked by a letter signed by “more than 50 former intelligence officials” that aimed to discredit the laptop as having “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”
Look:
Four years ago today, Politico published its infamous “Hunter Biden story is Russian disinfo” article. The bullshit Hunter Biden laptop letter — signed by 50+ ex-intel officials — falsely claimed Russian involvement. The October Surprise goal was to help Joe Biden defeat Trump. https://t.co/mIrfTSRAfF pic.twitter.com/MTxDIzDlC2

But what happens when the media, and dozens of people who worked in United States intelligence, get the story so completely wrong? The truth could have influenced the outcome of the year’s presidential election, wherein former President Joe Biden beat President Donald Trump, the man who is both his predecessor and his successor after winning his second non-consecutive term in 2024.
Now, even Hunter Biden himself is admitting that the laptop was his:

“The only thing that the laptop, the quote, end-quote ‘laptop,’ hard drive, iCloud hack, whatever you want to call. The only thing it proved was that I was a degenerate crackhead doing degenerate crackhead things,” he said.
X users were quick to jump on the clip:
For real? Do people really expect us to believe that laptop was real? Obviously, Hunter Biden is lying now!

Then why did your daddy’s FBI lie and said it didn’t exist? Why didn’t you man up and come out and admit to it?

So he is admitting the laptop is real and not “Russian disinformation”.

The Deep State and Demedia threw the election to Basement Biden resulting in 4 years of Autopen Biden by lying about the laptop and suppressing the NY Post exposé on it. Polls showed Biden would have LOST had the laptop been admitted as authentic by the FBI who knew it.
