Now credentials is one thing, and drug abuse is another. You could have both and be well-qualified for a position. Or neither and be unqualified. I'm not saying that Hunter Biden was qualified, but his drug abuse isn't the thing that necessarily makes him unqualified. However I am well aware that there are plenty of people on boards who owe their lucrative positions there to connections or the supposed cachet they will bring. Hunter Biden is hardly alone. 

He has no cachet, but does have a connection.

Fox News’ own research team has warned colleagues not to trust some of the network’s top commentators’ claims about Ukraine.

An internal Fox News research briefing book obtained by The Daily Beast openly questions Fox News contributor John Solomon’s credibility, accusing him of playing an “indispensable role” in a Ukrainian “disinformation campaign

I, for one, am looking forward to the treasure trove of Biden data from these leaks.

Completely agree. And connections are as connections do -- sometimes they pan out, and sometimes they don't.

What would they deny?

 

 

I have not seen this timeline with the FBI anywhere, and who is the legal owner? 

 

 

 

Source?

Why don't we wait for the FBI to weigh in?  We have seen no forensic data.

In short there is a group of people who think as you do for various reasons and they are ripe picking for disinformation campaign.

They would deny it being real, instead they are relying on Twitter and FB to do the dirty work.  I don’t think they understand, the world does not revolve around Twitter and FB.

 

Just because you haven’t seen it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.  Time to get a good search engine and type in NYPost.  Since the property was abandoned at the computer shop, ownership reverts to the shop owner.  Pretty standard practice and why the FBI ran the subpoena play.

Yes, we are all ripe for the picking.  There are a lot of folks that are so affected by TDS, they maintain their collective heads in the sand when it comes to a 47 year corrupt, I mean career politician that has no scruples at all.

The truth behind the Hunter Biden non-scandal

Opinion by David Ignatius

 

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-truth-behind-the-hunter-biden-non-scandal/2020/10/16/798210bc-0fd1-11eb-8074-0e943a91bf08_story.html

 

 

 

The story of Hunter Biden’s involvement with the Ukrainian gas company Burisma isn’t a scandal about his father, as the Trump campaign claims, but part of a personal tragedy for the vice president’s son, compounded by this week’s dissemination of what looks like disinformation about Joe Biden’s role.

 

What’s clear, beyond the false scandal-mongering, has been evident for years: Hunter Biden made a mistake getting involved with a dubious company like Burisma. But the notion that the Burisma affair undermines Joe Biden’s case to be president is, as he would say, malarkey.

The Biden campaign has been understandably reluctant to respond, for fear of giving the story legitimacy. Still, Biden has said his son made a mistake. Family friends say the vice president is reluctant to publicly criticize Hunter Biden further, but they stress that both Bidens have learned the painful lesson that a president’s children should stay away from international business. Would that the Trump family recognized that rule.

Wow, didn’t take long for the victim card to come out.  And since this came from WaPo we must believe it right?  Oh, that’s right, this is just an opinion piece from a biased editorial writer.

But yet zero problems reporting on Trumps illegalize obtained Tax return with just a small part of the whole picture. Or reporting as fact, lead story, that Trump called war dead losers.

Or reporting Trump gave prostitutes' golden showers, that was a fake document

 

You usually are not much of a hypocrite.. but yet 

 

   I don't post any of this rubbish here and you know that. You know who starts these topics and you know it's not me. I'm not sure why people keep bringing up Trumps taxes and golden showers in this topic. We are discussing a specific subject here - Hunter Biden - and that's what I commented on. If you want to know what people think about Trumps taxes go back to those threads or start a new one. I rarely commented in them. 

 

  I honestly don't care what comes out of Trumps tax issues except to say, as I have in the past, that he will deal with these legal issues after he is no longer president. I know enough of his other legal issues to know he is probably not on the up and up here, and I am fine with letting the courts deal with it, and I won't be following it in the media day to day because I have a life and Trumps BS doesn't fit into that. He does what he does. He will get what he deserves, and he has probably made enough enemies to guarantee that it is coming. When he does go down, it will be a dogpile.

 

  As to hypocrites, those are the people who ask questions and then make up allegations about something people said in the past without offering proof just because they don't like the answer.

No, but I do know someone applying for a top government clearance that has an IR that deals with illegal activity such as crack it can make things tough.

Of course people get jobs thru networking. However getting one because your dad is VP and you sell access to him... Thats a crime

Deny what being real? Specifically? The Biden campaign says the meeting referenced in the "thank you email" never happened. If true that would point to everything on that hard drive as tainted.

I haven't seen the man on the moon or elephants fly. If Rudy Giuliani was selling me on any thing as fact, I would have to assume the opposite thing probably true based on his track record the last 8 years. What a waste of a good Jesuit education.

Why not just read the NY Post articles and judge according to what they published, that is what I did/do. I am still waiting for something valid. Jimmy Breslin and Alexander Hamilton would be so pissed at what became of the Post.

 Since the property was abandoned at the computer shop, ownership reverts to the shop owner.

I wouldn't presume to understand the consumer laws of that state, but some states uphold the right of the original owners even to their heirs, I think 2 years is the law in this state.

The story about how the FBI came to hold the computer, or if they even have it, has yet to be revealed.

That is your opinion and you are entitled to it.

Getting a job because of who you know or are related to in and of itself is not a breach of law and may even pass ethics rules. I am still looking for the evidence access was sold or that anyone in the US government took any action based on that relationship. 

 

Personally , Hunter Biden used poor judgement and ignored advice that told him to stay away from Burisma. That doesn't make it criminal.
