Hold on I guess I’ve missed something. There’s proof that some of the contents of the computer were planted?
If the ukraine emails were really on the laptop, they were. Because they're fake, hence the guy in jail here and 3 people in Ukraine being tried for treason.
I’m not sure if this woman is the Left equivalent at James O’Keefe, which I would hate. But, these answers from Alito are very disturbing from a Supreme Court justice. On the other hand, I do very much like the Roberts answers in this one.
Feels like rage bait. No one is saying anything terribly surprising. In fact, Roberts' answers are comforting that he gets it.
https://www.politico.com/news/2024/06/07/biden-has-an-economic-story-to-tell-and-yet-00162338 "Inside Biden’s orbit, the fear is that there’s little new the administration can do to change the perceptions of a stubborn electorate that’s living through an upswing — yet simply refusing to believe it." They’re just so gd bad at politics it’s not even funny. A stubborn electorate. Hysterical.
The Young Thug trial is something else. If this judge was white and doing what he did yesterday the media would be calling for riots.
This is probably the best overall summary of it. In short, the judge met ex parte with the state and a person who did not wish to testify in secret, the defense attorney called him out, judge asked where he got it, attorney would not tell him citing attorney-client privilege, judge held him in contempt of court. https://x.com/natlawyerchic/status/1800345505647698240
If the laptop authentically holds emails consistent with the claims of trump, Giuliani and the GOP house, then they must be covering for Joe Biden not to have impeached him and produced them. Either that, or they know they aren't real or worse they don't exist at all.
There is a fine line between: 1) There are emails there that either don’t definitively prove anything and/or Hunter/Joe are being covered for. 2) Russians planted emails on the computer Let’s ignore for a moment the connections to Joe, if any, and the possibility that those connections to the extent they exist could lead to his impeachment. There is absolutely no question the way it all was handled covered for Hunter, and by extension at least to some extent Joe. The foreign money is really sketchy and I’m not aware of any plausible story that’s been put out there for why Hunter was receiving it that wouldn’t be problematic.
David Joyce just became one of my more liked politicians. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ho...d-contempt-refer-him-criminal-charges-own-doj
I respect Biden for committing to not pardoning his son, as well. The power of the pardon is not intended to be a personal booster but a last line of justice or mercy. Hunter was found guilty in a fair trial and can appeal. I don't think it would have come to this if he wasn't biden's son, but the law is the law.
