Assault On And Betrayal Of The American PeopleJune 24, 2024There is a protocol, a certain decorum, when it comes to bringing the family members of public officials, especially those in the political class, into the conversation. Leave the spouses, children, and even relatives, out of the picture, unless the subject matter directly involves the individual. This is a rule that I have made a point of observing whatever the circumstance or condition. We have a matter this time, however, which calls into question a family member. But I will only bring this individual into the story in passing, for it supports the main theme, which is how certain entities in the government, media, and former intelligence officials came together in a concerted effort to undermine the truth and betray the American people. On June 11 (2024) in a Wilmington Delaware courtroom, Hunter Biden, son of the President of the United States was convicted on three felony gun charges. The conversation from this point forward will not dwell on Hunter Biden specifically, but on the exclusive piece of evidence that was presented by the prosecution. The infamous “Laptop From Hell,” which is the title of the book by Miranda Devine that explains in detail the history of this device. The story spelled out how in 2019 the laptop was taken by Hunter Biden to the Wilmington repair shop of John Paul Mac Isaac. There is a time-limit policy that most businesses employ in transactions with a customer who leaves a device for repair. After a period of time had elapsed, the laptop remained at the shop past the required time for pickup. Mr. Mac Isaac therefore had the right to assume ownership of the device; it appeared Hunter Biden had abandoned the laptop at the repair shop. When repairing the laptop, Mac Isaac had access to files and the content of the information within those files. He discovered troves of data, emails, and messages involving deals with the Chinese, and transactions with the corrupt Ukrainian energy company Burisma, which became a cash cow for the Biden family. Mac Isaac contacted former Mayor Rudy Giuliani, then President Trump’s personal lawyer, who in turn surrendered the laptop over to the FBI in December of 2019. The FBI took no action with the laptop while in its possession. However, before turning over the laptop to the FBI, Mr. Giuliani made a copy of the hard drive. He passed it on to the New York Post in October of 2020, just prior to the November election. The repercussions were immediate from most of the media and sectors of government, including the Department of Justice, the FBI, and the CIA. These factions came together to question and shed a negative light on the Post’s story. The reputation of the oldest newspaper in America was dragged through the mud. The legitimacy of the laptop story in the Post was quickly and vociferously questioned. The contents of the laptop was deemed to be suspect and possibly attributed to Russian interference. The laptop’s legitimacy became the subject of much discussion in the halls of Congress, among Republicans and Democrats, and in the media. The Post continued to insist on it being a valid and important story that should be considered by the American people prior to the November presidential election. As the election drew near, however, the detractors of then-President Trump felt they needed something more substantive than just opinions and observations about the laptop. Just prior to the election, Biden campaign official Antony Blinken, now Secretary of State, reached out to former CIA director Mike Morell. Blinken requested that Morell obtain the signatures of CIA officials, compose a statement, and have them sign it. The outcome was the infamous letter signed by 51 former intelligence officials. The letter stated the signatories agreed the laptop appeared to have “all the earmarks of Russian disinformation.” These willing liars deceived the trust of the American people, and to this day refuse to retract their action or admit their folly. Several have even gone so far as to admit that they achieved their goal, and helped in electing Biden. The ramifications of this is being felt today, as the American people find themselves having to suffer through what seems interminable chaos, and an extreme radical Democrat agenda.
