‘The Rest of the Country Is Starting to Open Their Eyes’: Major Outlets Confirm Contents of Hunter’s Laptop

The Washington Post joined The New York Times on Wednesday in verifying some of the contents pulled off of a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden and abandoned at a Delaware computer store in 2019.

The confirmations by the major news publications come weeks apart and roughly 18 months after the New York Post broke stories on Biden’s overseas business dealings, citing information from the laptop. The NY Post’s stories, published weeks before the 2020 election, were censored on social media and downplayed as likely products of Russian propaganda. At the time, neither Biden nor his father, now the President of the United States, claimed that the laptop or its contents were fake.

Independent experts and knowledgeable sources approached by the NYT and WaPo have confirmed the veracity of emails at the basis of several of the explosive NY Post reports. Experts interviewed by WaPo warned that the chain of custody of the data from Biden’s purported laptop is difficult to establish, and that WaPo’s copy of the laptop’s hard drive contained evidence that files are missing and could have been doctored. The experts did not find evidence that existing files had been intentionally tampered with, however.

WaPo took a copy of Biden’s laptop’s hard drive, given to the outlet by Republican activist Jack Maxey, to two independent experts for analysis. Of the nearly 129,000 emails contained on the hard drive, Johns Hopkins University security researcher Matt Green was only able to verify 1,828. Former National Security Agency operative Jake Williams was able to verify a much larger portion of the emails: nearly 22,000.

Caught Red Handed? Never Trump Candidate Seen Illegally Forging Petition Signatures in Parking Lot (VIDEO)

A never-Trump Republican in New York can be seen allegedly illegally forging petition signatures in a parking lot in his effort to challenge New York Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik, a video obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller shows.

Lonny Koons, who is trying to primary Stefanik in NY21, can be seen in his car in videos that were taken at the Ticonderoga Walmart Parking lot on March 24. The day the two videos were filmed he said on social media that he was in Ticonderoga and “obtained a healthy number of petition signatures.” However, the signatures appeared to have been faked and signed by Koons himself.

In the videos, posted on YouTube by an anonymous account called “North Country Watch,” Koons can be seen signing a number of signatures and names on a document in the parking lot, on the same day he said he was collecting signatures in Ticonderoga. The petition filing period starts April 4. Republicans need a minimum of 1,250 signatures to appear on the ballot.

On March 12th, Koons posted a letter on Facebook that he sent to the Working Families Party of New York. In the letter, he states that he is “primarying Ms. Elise Stefanik for the republican nomination” and goes on to ask why the Working Families Party is representing him as a supporter of former President Donald Trump.

Rep. Maxine Waters Tells Homeless to ‘Go Home’

A chaotic scene unfolded in South Los Angeles last week when Rep. Maxine Waters showed up to an event aimed at providing emergency resources to homeless Angelenos in her district, an event where those who turned out were expecting something much different than what played out.

According to The Los Angeles Times, while Waters requested that the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority show up in the community to provide assistance to her homeless constituents, “an unofficial social media post erroneously promised that those who showed up would get rare vouchers for permanent, subsidized housing.”

As a result of the mixed messages, “Homeless people lined up on a corner” and “heated arguments broke out among the hundreds of people who turned out for assistance.” Despite their efforts, Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority workers “were unable to meet more than a small fraction of the need and left while throngs of people were still waiting for help.”

In the midst of all that, Maxine Waters sought to gain control of the situation and demanded that a crowd of mostly homeless people needed to “go home.” You can’t make it up, but here’s video obtained by The L.A. Times to prove it anyway:

WATCH: FBI Cyber Chief CAN’T FIND Hunter Biden’s Laptop

By Daily Mail. Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) got into a heated spat over the whereabouts of Hunter Biden’s laptop during a House Judiciary hearing on oversight of the FBI’s Cyber Division on Tuesday.

The Republican firebrand used his allotted time to grill the division’s assistant director Bryan Vorndran, who repeatedly told Gaetz he didn’t have any information on where the hard drive belonging to President Joe Biden’s son is currently located.

At one point Gaetz tried to enter the hard drive into the Congressional record but was blocked by House Judiciary Chair Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.), who changed his mind a short while later.

‘Sir, I’m not here to talk about the laptop. I’m here to talk about the FBI’s cyber program,’ Vorndran told Gaetz after the lawmaker asked where it was. . .

‘You are the assistant director of FBI cyber. I want to know where Hunter Biden’s laptop is. Where is it?’ he pressed. (Read more from “FBI Cyber Chief Can’t Find Hunter Biden’s Laptop” HERE)

‘Today Is Just a Small Taste’: Grassley Drops New Hunter Biden Documents

By Townhall. Senate Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Chuck Grassley took to the Senate floor Tuesday night to give “a little taste” of new information about Hunter Biden’s deep business and family ties to communist China.

“Today, Senator Johnson and I will begin our series of speeches on our investigation into the Biden Family’s financial deals,” Grassley said. “We’ll refute and dismantle the talking point that the liberal media and our Democratic colleagues pushed on the American people: That our investigation advanced and spread Russian disinformation.”

Using posters displaying documents, Grassley connected the dots right to Hunter’s bank account.

Apple and Meta Gave User Data to Hackers Who Used Forged Legal Requests

Apple Inc. and Meta Platforms Inc., the parent company of Facebook, provided customer data to hackers who masqueraded as law enforcement officials, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.

Apple and Meta provided basic subscriber details, such as a customer’s address, phone number and IP address, in mid-2021 in response to the forged “emergency data requests.” Normally, such requests are only provided with a search warrant or subpoena signed by a judge, according to the people. However, the emergency requests don’t require a court order.

Snap Inc. received a forged legal request from the same hackers, but it isn’t known whether the company provided data in response. It’s also not clear how many times the companies provided data prompted by forged legal requests.

Cybersecurity researchers suspect that some of the hackers sending the forged requests are minors located in the U.K. and the U.S. One of the minors is also believed to be the mastermind behind the cybercrime group Lapsus$, which hacked Microsoft Corp., Samsung Electronics Co. and Nvidia Corp., among others, the people said. City of London Police recently arrested seven people in connection with an investigation into the Lapsus$ hacking group; the probe is ongoing.

Ukraine Warns of ‘Huge’ Threat to Chernobyl Facility

Russian forces have stored “dozens of thousands of tons” of ammunition near the infamous Chernobyl nuclear facility near Kyiv, according to Ukrainian officials who claim that Russia regards the area as a safe zone despite the risk of a disastrous accident.

“They use this nuclear facility as an umbrella because they understand that Ukrainians will not attack them there,” Oleksandr Danilyuk, a national security official for the central government in Kyiv, told the Washington Examiner.

That tactical choice has made it easier to conduct some military operations around Kyiv, the target of one of the main prongs of the Russian military campaign over the last month. And yet, that relative security against Ukrainian attacks comes at the cost of a “huge, huge risk” to Chernobyl and the $2.5 billion confinement shelter designed to contain a destroyed nuclear reactor and “radioactive dust” and debris left behind from the 1986 disaster.

“So the transportation route of this ammunition is literally, like, maybe, 300 meters from the shelter and the final destination, the final storage is less than 20 kilometers from the shelter,” said Danilyuk, a security official not to be confused with former Ukrainian Finance Minister Oleksandr Danylyuk. “And the quantity of that ammunition is big enough to say that this risk makes that accident and destroying of that shelter almost imminent.” (Read more from “Ukraine Warns of ‘Huge’ Threat to Chernobyl Facility” HERE)

White House Finally Responds to a Hunter Biden Question — About Trump

White House communications director Kate Bedingfield attacked former President Donald Trump Wednesday after he asked Russian President Vladimir Putin to supply information on Hunter Biden’s business dealings, even as Russia continues to wage war in Ukraine.

Instead of declining to answer questions involving President Joe Biden’s son, as White House press secretary Jen Psaki has frequently done throughout his term, Bedingfield responded to a question from NBC News’s Kristen Welker on the subject with a question of her own.

“What kind of American, let alone an ex-president, thinks that this is the right time to enter into a scheme with Vladimir Putin and brag about his connections to Vladimir Putin?” she asked. “There was only one, and it’s Donald Trump.” (Read more from “White House Finally Responds to a Hunter Biden Question — About Trump” HERE)

U.S. Senators Reveal CCP-Controlled Company Funneled Millions to Biden Family

Republican Sens. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa revealed on Tuesday that Hunter Biden and James Biden were funneled millions of dollars from companies directly influenced by the Chinese Communist Party to offer the “spy chief of China” legal representation.

Energy company CEFC, which Johnson and Grassley say is “effectively an arm of the Chinese government,” paid Hudson West Three, one of Hunter’s companies, $1 million in November 2017. Five months later, Hunter’s Hudson West Three transferred $1 million to another Hunter Biden company, Owasco with a memo detailing the funds were for CEFC vice-chairman and secretary-general Dr. Patrick Ho Chi Ping’s “Representation.”

The same month CEFC sent a $1 million wire to Hudson West Three, Ho was arrested and charged with using millions of dollars to “bribe top officials of Chad and Uganda in exchange for business advantages for CEFC.” In 2019, Ho was convicted and sentenced in the United States to three years in prison for international bribery and money laundering.

“And guess what Ho did around the same time he was arrested by the FBI for corruption and bribery. He contacted James Biden,” Johnson explained from the Senate floor on Tuesday. “Ho’s decision to call the Biden family around the same time he got arrested is revealing, particularly in light of the fact that the same month a million dollars just happened to be transferred to Hunter Biden’s company.” (Read more from “U.S. Senators Reveal CCP-Controlled Company Funneled Millions to Biden Family” HERE)

Biden’s SCOTUS Nominee Sentenced Child Porn Offenders to Nearly 60% Less Time than National Average

President Biden’s Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson sentenced those in possession of child pornography to nearly 60 percent less time than the national average, according to documents from Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) reviewed by Breitbart News.

Furthermore, cases of child porn distribution in which Jackson was the presiding judge were sentenced 47 percent less than the national average. Jackson also sentenced the production of child porn 35 percent less than the national average.

In fact, in every single child pornography case she heard, Jackson sentenced the defendant below the sentencing guidelines, according to documents reviewed by Breitbart News. Similarly, in every single child pornography case, Jackson sentenced the defendant at or below the recommendation from the prosecutor. In all but one child pornography case, Jackson sentenced the defendant below or at the probation office’s recommendation.

Jackson has also been verbally sympathetic to those she has sentenced in recent years.

“[You’re] obviously aware of my policy disagreement. I just think it’s very, very hard to deal with number of images as a significant aggravator…” she said in relation to the 2019 case, United States v. Cane.

Joe Rogan Threatens to Quit His $200 Million Spotify Deal

Joe Rogan is giving Spotify an ultimatum — again.

The hugely popular, and hugely controversial, podcast host is threatening to quit the music streaming giant, leaving their $200 million deal on the table.

During a recent episode of “The Joe Rogan Podcast,” the former mixed martial arts commentator got into a conversation with MMA fighter Josh Barnett about the cutthroat podcast industry ring.

“I will quit. If it gets to a point that I can’t do it anymore, where I have to do it in some sort of weird way where I walk on eggshells and mind my p’s and q’s, f–k that!” Rogan said.

Referring to recent headlines spawned by his problematic banter — from using the N-word to spreading COVID-19 misinformation — Rogan, 54, described his fear of being picked apart by the public for “every little thing.” (Read more from “Joe Rogan Threatens to Quit His $200 Million Spotify Deal” HERE)
