New in PJ Media:
The whole world knows now that Hunter Biden’s legendary laptop is real, and as Matt Margolis noted Friday, “all that’s left is anger — anger at how the media and Big Tech deliberately suppressed this damaging story about Hunter Biden to protect Joe Biden in the waning weeks of the presidential campaign.” Foremost among those protecting Old Joe were 51 senior American intelligence officials who on Oct. 19, 2020, published a statement asserting that “the arrival on the US political scene of emails purportedly belonging to Vice President Biden’s son Hunter, much of it related to his time serving on the Board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma, has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” It wasn’t. None of these alleged intel agents, however, have come clean and admitted that they lied and that Hunter’s laptop was genuine. Not a single one.
The statement did contain this weaselly caveat: “We want to emphasize that we do not know if the emails, provided to the New York Post by President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, are genuine or not and that we do not have evidence of Russian involvement — just that our experience makes us deeply suspicious that the Russian government played a significant role in this case.”
Nonetheless, the intended effect was created: Politico dutifully ran a story entitled “Hunter Biden story is Russian disinfo, dozens of former intel officials say.” Jen Psaki tweeted those exact words. Old Joe Biden used the officials’ lie in a debate against Trump, saying: “There are 50 former national intelligence folks who said that what he’s accusing me of is a Russian plant.… Five former heads of the CIA, both parties, say what he’s saying is a bunch of garbage. Nobody believes it except his good friend Rudy Giuliani.”
The New York Post pointed out Friday that these 51 officials shouldn’t be the partisan hacks they obviously are; they “are the supposed nonpartisan group of top spies looking out for the best interest of the nation,” and that means we are in even worse trouble than most people realize. It’s clear now that their statement saying that the laptop was Russian disinformation was not the result of an actual analysis of its provenance and contents but was simply a manifestation of the fact that these agents “really were just desperate to get Joe Biden elected president.” Now that they’ve been shown up as the corrupt, self-serving officials they are, they’ve closed ranks and admitted nothing. The establishment media will, of course, give them a pass.
There is more. Read the rest here.

51 Intel AGENTS? Well, Bill Barr recently said that when the story broke in the New York Post in October 2020, the FBI of the time actually confirmed that the laptop was owned by Hunter Biden. The ‘former agents’ had not seen it and could not possibly make the assertions they did with veracity. The 51 liars all lied through their teeth. Horrible, partisan lies and calumnies.
It reminds me of the time when Hitler ordered 100 German scientists to denounce Einstein. When Einstein heard of it, he said, ‘Why 100? It would only take one scientist to prove I was wrong.’
Well, there were experts at the FBI who confirmed the laptop and the New York Times, CNN and others ignored them so that the Old Codger could win the election. As a result, the Old Bribed-man got many voters who would otherwise have rejected him for this obvious INFLUENCE PEDDLING with foreign governments and corporations. The Beijing-Ukraine-Moscow-Rumania Bribed-man is compromised as a result of the many BRIBES he received through his son Hunter. He is a fraudulent, lying, compromised president, and the worst in US history.

It’s obvious AMERICAN DISINFORMATION. The fact that polling after the election showed that AT LEAST 6% of voters would have switched their vote if they had known the laptop was real is enough to challenge the results. That 6% would translate into an additional 9 MILLION VOTES FOR TRUMP. That’s not just enough to win the electoral college, but to ensure a Reagan style beating that we haven’t seen in decades.
No wonder Barr said he was surprised that Trump didn’t lose by a bigger margin. With all the disinformation, unconstitutional changes to voting laws, censorship, private leftists running swing states and the fake or forced votes, it’s a wonder that they didn’t just declare that they won all 50 states.

Yep, and now Barr is going on TV talking about his book and how he was convinced at the time (and now) that the Trump/Biden election was not stolen.
How could Barr have possibly known that at the time? 51 more truthful government agents/investigators telling him there is no evidence to support Trump’s claim? The recount of fraudulent votes came out close to the same?

I suppose that, for most of the media and others as well, it was a case of anything goes in order to get rid of Trump. Now, having achieved that and having put this pathetic, demented clown, Biden, in power, the truth can now be allowed to come out. The leftists who got rid of Trump and put the absolutely pathetic Biden and Harris in power have damaged the USA greatly and emboldened the scum such as Putin and Xi to throw their weight around.

Hunter Biden and his dad are both so very terrible that together do give a whole new meaning to the very old saying “Like father , like son.”
Walter Sieruk says
There is a rather new type of a Dr. Seuss poem out about senior Biden and his junior Biden.
So here is is… ” I do not like your mental haze, I do not like your leftist ways, I do not like your son on blow, I do not like you Mr. Joe.”

Very witty, Walter.
