    They either choose to be ignorant, or are just evil and know what they are doing is wrong, but don't care, because of their warped ideology is above all.

    Exactly why it needs to be investigated. IS Biden the Big Guy? Who the hell else would it or could it be? It seems pretty dang obvious and those different payoff's are in multiple emails.

    They are advancing an agenda. The most effective kind of propaganda is by omission.

    When everything the American people believe is false, we will know the success of our misinformation efforts.

    You are (obviously) 100% WRONG.

    The Mute Button will ONLY apply to the first 2 minutes of each segment (when candidates will be allowed to talk uninterrupted).

    After that, Trump is free to scream at the top of his lungs about Hunter's Laptop, Bat Boy, Nessie, or the Faked Moon Landing to his heart's content.

    Sure.

    All that has to happen is for Joe and Hunter Biden to answer one question:

    Who was Hunter introducing members of the Chinese Communist Party, Moscow Mayor's Oligarch wife, and Burisma to that was worth him receiving millions of dollars.

    No it makes total sense that Biden's son was getting millions of dollars from foreign governments for introductions to someone for something.

    They don't release info on investigations.

    Has anyone actually confirmed any of the content? So far all I've seen is Giuliani as a source. Who has actually examined the hard drive and confirmed?

    I said the same thing back in January - the Demokrats impeached Trump to obstruct justice. Every last one of them belongs in Club Fed.

    As for Mitt Romney, the poena cullei should do...

    Hunter Biden sold access to the VP, with kickbacks going to the VP himself. That's corruption, plain and simple.

    Reportedly, someone in HB's e-mail chain confirmed content late last week. Other than that, all I've heard is Ratcliffe's dismissal of the Russian disinformation conspiracy theory.

    Yes, investigate it. Im all for weeding out corruption. But I am fairly certian that if the FBI has had the laptop for this long a period of time that they have investigated that. And remember, this is Trumps FBI, so Im sure they did. IMO, they didm they found nothing, but it easy to make political hay out of it this close to the election.

    But while were at it, lets make sure we investigate Ivankas Chinese trademarks that she received while DJT was in talks with President Xi of China

    That's explained in the emails. Hunter was hiding it for Joe: "10 held by H for the big guy"

    "Emails" that only come in the form of pdfs from Giuliani. Cute.

    Unverified (probably FAKE) Emails.

    Do you really want to hang your hat on that?

    My understanding is that they come from the New York Post. What Rudy gave the New York Post was reportedly not just PDF's of emails, but an actual copy of Hunter's laptop hard drive. What part of that do you think I'm mistaken about?

    Just curious, what sort of evidence would meet your standard for verification of the emails?

    No, everything I've read is that the New York Post did not review the hard drive, unless something changed. They were working purely based on info filtered through Giuliani: the pdfs.

    Have you read the words printed in the New York Post itself?

    "But before turning over the gear, the shop owner says, he made a copy of the hard drive and later gave it to former Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s lawyer, Robert Costello.

    Steve Bannon, former adviser to President Trump, told The Post about the existence of the hard drive in late September and Giuliani provided The Post with a copy of it on Sunday."

    https://nypost.com/2020/10/14/email-reveals-how-hunter-biden-introduced-ukrainian-biz-man-to-dad/

    Copy of the drive itself, not just PDFs of emails. Agreed?

    Please actually read the above. Where does the NYP actually say they examined the copy of the hard drive. Hint: they don't. And the only docs they have published have been pdfs from Giuliani.

    Show the millions of dollars. You keep saying that, yet you cant show it.

    And if we're being honest, lets see how much Trump has made while president. How much have his kids made while President. We know Jared and Ivanka made over $300 million last year.

    While Rudy is supposedly Trumps lawyer, he is getting paid by a Russian.
