Hunter’s Attorney’s Defense Of The ‘So-Called Laptop’ Is So Ludicrous, It’s Laughable

Ever get the feeling that we live in a circus world run by idiots? The latest example of the sheer stupidity of our so-called elites can be found in the latest updates regarding Hunter Biden’s infamous “laptop from hell.”

On Wednesday, Biden the younger’s legal team sent a letter Request an investigation by the Delaware attorney general and the United States Department of Justice “individuals for whom there is considerable reason to believe violated various federal laws in accessing, copying, manipulating, and/or disseminating Mr. Biden’s personal computer data.”

The letters were taken by many as a sign that Hunter was finally confirming that Hunter’s laptop left at John Paul Mac Isaac’s repair shop was actually his. This will be a familiar story to readers. 51 ex-intelligence officers claimed that the New York Post’s original 2020 report on the computer was “Russian disinformation.” Twitter then censored Hunter’s story and the rest is history. Hunter has never denied or confirmed that it’s his laptop, so the legal request sent this week appeared to be a stunning admission.

His lawyers then issued a ridiculous statement. Biden’s counsel claimed that the request for a criminal investigation does not in any way confirm that the laptop is actually his.

“These letters do not confirm Mac Isaac’s or others’ versions of a so-called laptop,” Hunter’s attorney Abbe Lowell Submitted Fox News. “They address their conduct of seeking, manipulating, and disseminating what they allege to be Mr. Biden’s personal data, wherever they claim to have gotten it.”

Huh?

The law offices not confirming that the computer in question and its contents are real — they just want the DOJ to investigate key figures who reported on it and shared its contents? Where did this team of attorneys come from — the Law Offices of Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe?

There are many media outlets that offer this service. It was confirmed that the texts were correctEmails, photos and other content that is taken from the laptop can be verified. Although we knew it in 2020, legacy media outlets were unable to confirm its veracity until 2022.

Nonetheless, Hunter’s counsel says it is all one big con played by Trump supporters.

“This failed dirty political trick directly resulted in the exposure, exploitation, and manipulation of Mr. Biden’s private and personal information,” Lowell wrote in the letters that he sent to the DOJ. “Politicians and the news media have used this unlawfully accessed, copied, distributed, and manipulated data to distort the truth and cause harm to Mr. Biden.”

Biden’s legal team also acknowledge their request is unusual.

“The actions described above more than merit a full investigation and, depending on the resulting facts, may merit prosecution under various statutes. It is not a common thing for a private person and his counsel to seek someone else being investigated, but the actions and motives here require it,” Lowell stated this in his letter.

So, to recap, Biden’s attorneys understand they are asking for special treatment, claim an investigation into “Mr. Biden’s personal computer data” is needed but then try to argue that they’re not saying it is Hunter’s laptop.

In the meantime, this same “computer data” Hunter could face criminal charges. Ideally, the letter is ignored entirely, but with President Joe Biden’s DOJ, you can never be so sure it won’t be wielded against his political enemies.
