Oooh, you went back farther than recently, and chose my speculative "what if." Got it.

It was a month ago, figured that was your call at the time.

Wasn't just about the never ending riots?

Gotcha, I guess I was talking more about the election than you. I dunno, I'm tired.

To be fair, this is evidence supporting the left-wing violence, if there's another trump win. Basically, they've been in riot mode for months now, already.

Never trust what anyone says if they're making money off of advertising, and that goes for televangelists, too. The accountants are always in charge.

It was so important that it needed to be repeated.

According to a spam text message I just received, they are polling at 47/48%, Biden

If that is true, they're going to play the electoral votes pretty hard. Either can still win.

That was an interesting press conference. Particularly where they said all options are on the table to respond to such meddling.

I watched on CBS and immediately after it the anchor, Norah somebody reiterated what was said and then got comments from one of their analysts. (Don't know his name. Bald black guy.) He immediately was contradicting the info given in the press conference and tried to make it political. She cut him off, reiterated the press conference again and never went back to him. At one point after she had taken over he looked down and had a reaction of some sort. I wonder if a producer was in his ear. The FBI just gave an unprecedented press conference and he's trying to turn it into a D vs R thing. Fuck dude, can we have a second to process this before we start finger pointing?

I feel like this story should be #1 in the news right now.
Fox News: Hunter Biden
CNN: Obama rebukes Trump
ABC: Iran/Russian interference

It should be, but we need to keep playing politics.

No idea about the validity of this, but the NY Post is all in with this story.
Fox News is all over it as well, which is interesting as the BBC reports that Fox originally turned the story down before it went to the Post.

Also, the laptop at the center of this story is confirmed by the FBI to be one that was also involved in a money laundering probe.

If this stuff is true, we need to start examining the possibility of a Biden win, followed by a resignation or impeachment, and then him being pardoned by President Harris.

No idea if any of this is true, but it's not nothing. Clearly there's smoke, but is there fire?

NY Post definitely going hard. I'm fine with investigating the merits (and by all accounts the FBI is) but this all just looks like a political "October Surprises" that can't be verified either way before the election. Just like the Comey letter last cycle. Seems like if the truth was important enough they could have gotten more info out ahead of time. The blurred-lines version seems to be more useful, though.

Right? Why are we waiting until the 11th hour before the election? This shit, IF TRUE, isn't just enough to get some votes, it's enough to warrant criminal charges.
