The Report shows:

140 business-related crimes
191 sex-related crimes
128 drug-related crimes

He was merely charged with a few misdemeanors and a gun charge.

NO EQUAL JUSTICE if you’re a dirty, crime-ridden BIDEN!


Hilarious. You're referring to the sham "Marco Polo" report which is a work of fiction by Garrett Ziegler, who was delusional Peter Navarro a/k/a Ron Vara's aide. Dude's a complete QANON loon.

I wonder how long the prosecutors in those jurisdictions took looking "The Report" over before busting out laughing and throwing that crap in the trash.

BREAKING: Prosecutors revealed to the jury that Hunter Biden didn't just sleep with his late brother Beau's wife Hallie, he also got her hooked on crack

Hallie is set to testify in this case and mysteriously Joe Biden visited her a few days ago. Most likely trying to buy her silence about their family dealings

They got together because it was the anniversary of Beau’s death, weirdo.

I think the version of the laptop they are using has been authenticated.
But yes there were several “versions” of the laptop floating around for years.
And the right wing ecosphere doesn’t seem to have a clue how much it was a) tampered with d) how much online fabrication has been added to it.
Same with Biden’s daughter’s diary.

I recall that even the most "authenticated" copy of the laptop still had files with timestamps showing they had been added or altered long after the laptop had last been in Hunter Biden's possession.

I feel bad for the guy. His dad obviously has a lot of love for him, but also spent Hunter’s childhood chasing his ambition. I think Jill resented having to step in as a “mother” to him and I think she favors her biological daughter to an extreme. And who knows what the car accident did to his brain.

He’s obviously enjoyed a lot of privilege and access and money in his life only because of his dad. But I think he’s also only being prosecuted now because of his bad. Take the bad with the good, I guess.

Reuters: The government said it has videos and photographs of Hunter Biden smoking crack or with drug paraphernalia as well as messages sent to purported street dealers arranging drug purchases. The evidence was collected from Biden's iCloud account, laptop and phone messages, prosecutors have said.
The government said it may call Hunter Biden's ex-wife, Kathleen Buhle, and other romantic partners to describe his addiction around the time of the gun purchase and possession.
Prosecutors said they plan to introduce excerpts from Biden's 2021 book, Beautiful Things, in which he described himself as a "crack addict" with no plans beyond "the moment-to-moment demands of the crack pipe."


How is that proof? You can not identify what someone is “smoking” on a video and what is the chain of custody of video. You need drug test with a positive result. Is Kathleen Buhle a doctor with extensive experience dealing with drug addition? Seems like lot of hearsay.

The state needs to proven he was on drugs when he signed the form and he thought himself to be an addict. In the very few cases where this has been charged the person was caught with drugs and failed a legal drug test. That is a very high bar. Biden was never arrested, never been tested for drugs and has not been caught with drugs.


Evidence doesn't have to definitively prove something in order to be admitted. It just has to make it more likely than not, and not be unduly prejudicial. The defense will be able to argue that there's no evidence the drugs in the videos were his, or what exactly he was smoking, etc, and the jury will then have to decide whether all the evidence together prove it beyond a reasonable doubt. From my reading on this, there seems to be a timing problem with a lot of the government's evidence. Most of their evidence of his drug use comes from a year or two after the gun purchase, so I'm sure Biden will say that just because he was using in 2019 does not mean he was doing so in 2018.


Maybe allowed to be admitted, but how could it hold up? I could get a piece of green cheese but wouldn't be able to prove it came from the moon.


Because evidence isn't viewed in isolation. As trial lawyers often say, "a leaf is not tree." A photo of a person with a crack pipe doesn't mean the person smokes crack. Perhaps it belonged to someone else. A text message to a dealer arranging a purchase doesn't mean a person uses crack. Maybe he was buying for someone else. But when you take all the evidence together, a jury can make a factual finding.


No. There is so much fake propaganda about Hunter Biden. Look at the laptop and that computer shop owner who “copied” the fake laptop. All you have to do is show people are manufacturing photos, emails, etc and you have reasonable doubt.

Pretty sure this will be a case of jury nullification. The prosecutor is a partisan actor conducting a witch hunt and should be disbarred.


Are you still pretending that the laptop and its contents are not Hunter's after it was presented into evidence and confirmed by a tech expert that the laptop and contents are his and authentic????

You poor dear child.


At this point, there are like 10 different "laptops" because the chain of custody on the so-called evidence was broken so many times, that any decent defense attorney can poke holes. Hunter pled guilty to certain crimes and the only reason this trial is happening is because Weiss, under political pressure from the right, was forced to prosecute a case that doesn't get prosecuted 99% of the time.


Let's not forget the absolutely crazy mac shop owner in Delaware who made a copy of the hard drive and gave it to rudy. He has since closed up shop. I haven't followed that story since it's all a bunch of nothingburger, but that's not the way to get evidence is it? Isn't what he did a breach?

That guy is appalling. Of course his computer repair shop is closed. No one would ever take their computer to him after that.

Of course, Stahl knew the contents in the laptop were authentic but she gaslit and shilled for Biden anyway.

During the interview, Stahl refused to let Trump talk about the laptop.

She said it couldn't be "verified" and pretended like Trump was crazy for even mentioning it.

Trump ended up walking out of the interview and the media lost their minds.

The media was handed an entire laptop into the life of Hunter Biden and what did they do? They not only ignored it but they claimed it was fake.

Call Lesley Stahl what she is: A propagandist.


I thought the laptop was supposed to have contained all this alleged corruption stuff, but now it looks like it just contained drug and gun info, which isn’t very earth-shattering. I think the various versions of the laptop people ar talking about are the versions proffered by Fox News and the like.


Yep - "10 for the big guy" or whatever it was. Guess not.

Rudy also claimed it had child porn. Guess not.

So. Much. Lying.

Turley? The legal expert who predicted total exoneration in the fraud case? Yeah, more of that please.

Honestly if he goes to jail for the gun charge it's great. Because there are millions of druggie gun owners out there and it's an opportunity to clean that up.

You don't know what else that lap top has. Even if it has child porn, it would not be brought up at the gun trial because it is irrelevant. The bottom line is the President Biden was lying when he said that the laptop story was Russian propaganda. When is he going to issue an apology?

This.

The whole thing is a sham. The dates of the gun purchase do not align with the dates of his addiction issues.
