Forced to admit that what Hunter Biden stories were factual?

And did any of those stories relate to Joe Biden?

They share a bank account, Joe had an “office” at the failed business Hunter tried to start, and in his emails – if true, as at least some of them have been cryptographically verified to be – Hunter claims he sends a percent of all his income to his dad, a credible claim given the eye-witness corroboration of a similar communique between financial partners affirming an equity stake in a Chinese venture of “10% for the big guy” – who an eye witness identifies as none other than the incorruptible Scranton Joe himself.

Can you provide a link to any of those stories from before the election? I can't find anything about the bank account earlier than Oct 12th.

I don't see how that could have been "suppressed" if it only came out very recently.

Everything in my comment except the shared bank account was reported before the election, with much of the specific content being suppressed or outright banned from multiple social media networks as part of coordinated enforcement action. The New York Post, a centuries-old newspaper that broke the story, was suspended from Twitter for multiple weeks due specifically to this reporting. Twitter could be forgiven for acting according to its “hacked materials policy” meant to protect innocent doxing victims like Hunter Biden, except for the fact that just weeks earlier they featured tweets from the New York Times that published illegally obtained private tax documents of the president (who was also later banned from Twitter).

I’m skeptical of the argument that recent vindication of a suppressed story somehow justifies its original suppression.

Bank account reporting:

The senate report has interesting stuff

There’s also that time biden got the prosecutor investigating burisma fired (by withholding funds).

Seems an awful like what Trump was impeached for...

You clearly didn't read my comment. I specifically pointed out that the bank account story couldn't have been suppressed because it only came out recently.

I want you to repeat those words to yourself out loud: "the bank account story couldn't have been suppressed because it only came out recently"

Do it twice. It's okay, we'll wait.

There’s more evidence now, but in October 2020 you had these same emails released. The entire drive was available for anyone to download.

Further, an associate of the Biden family confirmed all the emails were real and he told the family not to take Chinese money.

Does stories about Joe Biden's son relate to Joe Biden? Are you shitting us?

Stories about Trumps children trend for weeks if there's anything negative... they don't get suppressed, questioned or challenged.

Hunter is accused of being a Crack Addict, a pedophile, selling influence, etc... each enough to sit in the media for weeks and it's all swept under the rug.

Trump supposedly says shithole and it's a national emergency... Biden supposedly gets a cut from his son's business dealings in China/Russia/etc and it's nothing.

How does Hunter relate to Joe? are you fucking serious?

> Trump supposedly says shithole and it's a national emergency... Biden supposedly gets a cut from his son's business dealings in China/Russia/etc and it's nothing.

The WSJ investigated that story at the time and said that there wasn't sufficient evidence. If you have issues, you should blame the WSJ. https://www.wsj.com/articles/hunter-bidens-ex-business-partn...

Note the following quote "corporate records reviewed by The Wall Street Journal show no role for Joe Biden"

If the right leaning WSJ isn't willing to support a story like this, why do you think it's true?

Re:YouTube deletes rapper's 'Let's Go Brandon' song claiming... by wernercd on Sunday October 24, 2021 @04:22AM (#28975887)
"There wasn't sufficient evidence"

likewise, the laptop story was stopped because "its russian disinformation" even though 1) it never was and 2) those reasons never stop bad stories about Trump and family.

The main point of my post is that rumors sit in the new for months on Trump & crew... but "Journalists" suddenly care about "evidence" when it comes to Biden and Democrats?

"Media" is suppressing bad "rumors" about Biden and running rumors about Trump without issue. THAT is the issue and if you don't see the hypocrisy then you're part of the problem.

And right leaning?

Rudy sat there in an interview on TV claiming that he had one of Biden's Macbooks in his physical possession and proudly displayed it to TV cameras.

It was a Windows-based LG machine. I can totally see how a 70 year old grifter wouldn't want to spend the money on the correct prop for the media.

Somehow, I'm supposed to simultaneously believe that a guy with sensitive material on laptops worth literal millions is just going to drop off multiple machines and never pick them up.... and that a Mac repair guy isn't smart enough to identify what is and what is not a Macbook.

Maybe the reason nobody believes Trump or his henchmen is because they lie so much. Stranger things have happened. As it is, all evidence about this entire ordeal points towards Trump's team trying to Benghazi Biden. Biden wanted a corrupt prosecutor out of power for the same reason that virtually every other leader of the western world did: dude was corrupt.

Re:YouTube deletes rapper's 'Let's Go Brandon' song claiming... by wernercd on Monday October 25, 2021 @12:35AM (#28984532)
You focus on "grifters" from the right and endorse grifters from the left by ignoring their scandals and the rumors about their grifting.

You don't like Rudy? Okay... now... why are you silent about Hunter? Joe? other stories about their corruption?

Why do you accept at face value rumors about the right - when many of those rumors turn out to be false or their "lies" turn out to be true? and then you'll support "biden wants" despite the fact that he's every bit the corrupt grifter you claim to despise in Rudy?

"all the evidence" This is about rumors and support/suppression of those rumors.

Again... rumors about Trump spend weeks in the news without facts - or against facts... journalists care about "all evidence" with Biden when that evidence has been proven lies time and time again.

If you support the hypocrisy, then you're a hypocrite. You'll push rumors against Trump and hide rumors against Biden because you don't care about truth.

> rumors sit in the new for months on Trump

It's much worse than that.

Virtually all news stories in 2020/early 2021 about Trump have been retracted by cnn.com since then.

Almost all sound bytes from the White House and Squad today are the opposite of what they said pre-election, especially about corona - they said they would refuse a vaccine developed under the Trump administration, and that vaccine mandates were not going to happen.

The most striking is that "Trump's Muslim travel ban list" was originally drawn up by the previous Obama administration. (The list was created because there's several countries that have disorganized passport control, so ICE can't verify any of those documents when required, which means they don't know who is trying to enter the US, when that mattered. With Open Borders, those people can now just walk across the Mexico border.)

Joe Biden (via Hunter) was/is literally doing the thing they tried to impeach Trump over.

I'd say that's related!

Re:YouTube deletes rapper's 'Let's Go Brandon' song claiming... by ViViDboarder on Sunday October 24, 2021 @09:59PM (#28983770)
Which thing? Not the two things he was impeached for. Possibly closer to the circulated idea about impeaching due to having better foreign interests, but I don’t believe any formal impeachment attempt was made on those grounds. All talk.

My hot take: Probably because every politician likely does it. They wouldn’t want to set any ball rolling that could hurt them in the future.

Re:YouTube deletes rapper's 'Let's Go Brandon' song claiming... by lalaland1125 on Sunday October 24, 2021 @12:54AM (#28975082)
Joe Biden / Hunter Biden is doing what exactly?
