Biden Helped Hunter?

Posted By Mel Maki

Big tech is not helping Biden when they block information. Jonathan Turley just said this is "perfectly Orwellian" and "chilling." Turley is not my "go to guy" but they are making this a bigger story. If it is true Biden was more involved with Hunter's work it will change votes.

George S. tried to pin him down but Biden said although he is not a fan of court packing it all depends on "how they handle it."

Either the Hunter computer story is one Hell of a hoax or a lot of damning emails have been found that back up charges that Biden has helped Hunter make a truckload of money selling influence. Biden's campaign has not acted like this is one big hoax. 
Every hour the emails are looking more damning.

Some of the story comes from a bad tv show. A legally blind shop owner? He tells law enforcement about the computer and does not get a response? I saw that show, I think.

And section 230 gives tech companies protection from liabilities other businesses do not have? Seems wrong and a shortcut to the top.

Would this be completely different if Hunter's last name was Trump?  Anybody that says, "no difference" has not been paying attention for a long time.

The Debate Commission has a difficult time being fair.
Even Scully got himself in trouble.
Bob Dole said none of the Republicans on the Debate Commission would vote for Trump!

Was Trump impeached for less than this? Are these emails more damaging than Trump's phone call?

Greg, I thought it was a timely Biden Townhall.  It gave him a chance to say something about Hunter's computer but they forgot to ask him about that.

Biden Helped Hunter?

I do believe the Bidens have sold influence. But it does seem unlikely anybody would use the tv language "the Big Guy" in a conversation about a lot of money

If a satirical website can fool him, what do you think Russian intelligence officers can do to him and Guilliani? My guess is this will play out as follows; this will be another non-story that will be tirelessly debunked yet still have legs with the anti-Biden conspiracy crowds until the end of time.

It is too early for me to declare this is, "...another non-story that will be tirelessly debunked..."  Should I bet the Bidens were "honest" or "less than honest?"  Seems "less than honest" is a safer bet.  So I wait.

Politicians on both sides have been fooled by satire.
