So - it had all the hallmarks of a russian disinfo campaign, but it really was hunter’s laptop and that same laptop drive was given to Guiliani where he watched CP and kept it and the smoking gun of his influence in a Ukrainian company’s influence was . .

What the fuck is the actual story. My one remaining MAGA person is convinced of all of that because “a” laptop was introduced in his gun trial that the defense “did not object to.” Therefore it’s all real just like Guiliani said. This article from a source I don’t know says he really did drop off a laptop for repair. Did he? Wtf is the actual story?

Like the Tim Walz China story. What's the problem? I think people are just trying really hard for a "both sides" opportunity to sweep their own shit under the rug. They just need something. Nothing ever comes from their witch hunts. But they can be effective at hurting candidates. Benghazi!!

No I mean - literally - what’s the actual story? I’ve got a bunch of made up shit and a handful of sort-of-relevant, related facts.

I do t care about Hunter either way, but it’s pretty gross how the GOP listed over getting their hands on dick pics from someone just for being related to a politician. Margie sure loved showing them. They’d flip the fuck out of it happened to one of their own.

I love that this applies to basically everything for republicans, but that's expected from crybully fascists.

They just gloss over the fact that the man helping Giulianni push the laptop issue turned out to be a Russian asset

Seems like an opportunistic cash grab
