> "The background here is that the FBI came to us - some folks on our team - and was like 'hey, just so you know, you should be on high alert. We thought there was a lot of Russian propaganda in the 2016 election, we have it on notice that basically there's about to be some kind of dump that's similar to that'." "There's about to be some kind of dump that's similar to that" gives a pretty clear hint. The mob boss never says to his hitman "I think Fat Tony is a snitch, please kill him for me" but he still ordered the hit.

Seriously? Now the FBI is engaging in mob tactics? Is this the branch that operates out of the basement at Comet Ping Pong Pizzeria? You wanna know this one weird trick about this story? It only matters that it exists and can be further weaponized by crying foul over its suppression. You don't care about what the story is about, just the story itself (and the story about the story).

    But they weren't when they investigated Clinton? There's plenty of sordid history there but your claims are still ludicrous. I dare you to discuss the Hunter Biden case in the context of what it ostensibly represents: government corruption. Your circular logic goes nowhere: the Biden laptop story is about the Biden laptop story not being told. Again: tell me why this story should be told? What is the real substance of your concern?

      What does Clinton have to do with this? And you just don't seem to get it. The garden variety corruption of Hunter Biden isn't the important story. The FBI trying to suppress the spread of news is.

        "10% to the big guy" If the vice president was really taking money in exchange for influence peddling to foreign oligarchs, then that is a truly staggering level of corruption.

        Yes indeed. Let's investigate shall we? Wait, we did? Oh here is the report: https://www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/HSGAC%20-%20Finance%20Joint%20Report%202020.09.23.pdf https://www.finance.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/HSGAC%20-%20Fin... And that report shows that Hunter Biden was a corrupt piece of shit -- nothing compelling to show that his father was for sale as suggested. But for some reason you only care when it's about your political enemies, so I find your concern insincere at best. Shame on you for putting party before country.

        If. And if it's not, what is it? And do you feel the same way about corruption when it comes to his predecessor? I'm guessing you're good with that. Because it's your team and that's ok.

        The FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton's email server? Does that ring a bell? You know, the thing they made a big deal about before the election because back then Republicans supposedly cared about national security? That impacted the election. >The garden variety corruption of Hunter Biden isn't the important story. Oh, do tell. Then why was it so important to tell the story? Why the fuss other than to have a fuss?
