It's because it was pretty obviously a giant lie due to the complete lack of evidence and just plain didn't make sense to begin with. Why would Hunter Biden fly hours to go get his computer repaired. Even if that was true, there would be serious questions about the chain of custody for this supposed evidence. Many stages for things to be fabricated with big incentive to do so.

DKIM signatures were valid. Chain of custody doesn’t matter.

You validated all of them yourself?

There's zero evidence that's related to the NY Post story or Giuliani's hard drives.

Anyway, this Hunter Biden thing is like trying to smear Devin Nunes with the antics of Anthony Nunes (https://www.eastbaytimes.com/2012/09/15/police-san-leandro-m...).

At least one person -- strategist Frank Luntz -- verified the contents of one of the emails in the archive. Also, what about the photos? The Bidens also never denied that the laptop evidence was real.

Absolutely. Especially because Frank Luntz is completely non-partisan and has no interest in helping Biden's opposition[0]:

"Frank Ian Luntz (born February 23, 1962) is an American political and communications consultant, pollster and pundit,[1][2] best known for developing talking points and other messaging for the Republican causes. His work has included assistance with messaging for Newt Gingrich's Contract with America, and public relations support for pro-Israel policies in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. He advocated use of vocabulary crafted to produce a desired effect; including use of the term death tax instead of estate tax, and climate change instead of global warming.

Luntz has frequently contributed to Fox News as a commentator and analyst, as well as running focus groups during and after presidential debates on CBSN.[3] Luntz describes his specialty as "testing language and finding words that will help his clients sell their product or turn public opinion on an issue or a candidate."[4] He is also an author of business books dealing with communication strategies and public opinion."

You are obviously clueless about the contents of the emails.

Get off your bourgeois partisan high horse and read the damn emails and Luntz's response (he was included in one of the produced email chains)

And by the way, Luntz is anti-Trump -- though I presume your knee-jerk reaction to this story indicates that you think it's some right-wing conspiracy.

I'll let the relevant authorities do so. As I understand it, they have a laptop or the contents thereof, and are conducting an investigation.

If that investigation warrants charging Hunter Biden with any crimes, he can be tried by a jury of his peers and, if convicted, punished appropriately.

Adherence to the law isn't (or at least shouldn't be) a partisan issue, nor have I made any statement to that effect.

If you believe you have uncovered some relevant evidence, I suggest you take it to the authorities for further investigation.

Thank you for sharing your point of view.
