What's funny is his emails have been widely reported in the mainstream media, investigated by Senate republicans, investigated by the DOJ. Nobody seems to come up with anything of substance.

Hunters emails? Oh my yes, the mainstream media was brutal in its coverage, and social
media kept encouraging conservatives to post about it.

Maybe the same person who told you Warren never flipped foreclosures, is the same person who told you that CNN went all Woodward & Bernstein on Hunters emails. I mean, CNN and MSNBC wouldn’t stop talking about how damming those emails were.

You don’t hear about it outside right wing media because there’s no evidence, only baloney.

Conservative media and the Republican Party used to work in parallel; now they operate completely in sync. While in the ’90s, Newt Gingrich was content to allow the Spectator’s Whitewater story to germinate and mature on its own before forcing the appointment of Ken Starr to lead an independent investigation, Donald Trump’s allies were active participants in the airing of Hunter Biden’s emails, delivering a fully realized narrative that impugned the character of the President’s opponent at exactly the same point in the election calendar that the probe into Hillary Clinton’s email server was renewed in 2016.

It’s just more baloney amplified by the Republican news channels and the face of white supremacy

Here, those right-wing Trumplicans at Politico conformed that emails were authentic, and not "Russian misinformation" as the mainstream media was spoonfeeding to you and Spence.

Politico confirmed a few of the emails were genuine, but they also don't show anything really incriminating.

I didn't even know, or care, who Gruden was. The post was funny, to EVERYONE who has the slightest sense of humor. To people like you and Spence, desperately clinging to the hope that people don't see many things taking place, it's not funny because it pulls the curtain back on the outrageousness that a league has players playing who have been arrested for domestic abuse (that's OK), but old, private emails with offensive language aren't OK.

Can you go three hours without responding to something I never said?

You take a funny, satirical post, and immediately pivot to inane claims of the stolen election. Because your mind doesn't allow for posts that make your side look bad. Only things that make the right look bad can exist in your world.

Prove me wrong. Tells us the major issues on which you think liberals are 100% wrong. If you can't do that, you're a sheep.

Only things that make the right look bad can exist in your world.

Prove me wrong. Tells us the major issues on which you think liberals are 100% wrong. again asking question that have been answered but you don't like the answer so you keep asking If you can't do that, you're a sheep.

Funny stuff. And completely true.

It is true. The emails were dismissed as Russian disinformation, then a year later Politico admits the emails were genuine. I'm not making that up, that's what happened. Social media giants were actively taking down mentions of Hunters emails by influential conservative voices.

Because it was the 11th hour in an election and everybody knew Russians were running misinformation campaigns to help Trump. Besides real or not, the story isn't there. So Hunter worked to profit off his name, big whoop, look at Trump's offspring.

so we should ignore potentially important news, if it might hurt democrats right before an election.

“real or not”

there is no more “or not”.

“look at grumps offspring”

who were wildly successful
before trump took office. Hunter was a pervert ( slept with his dead brothers widow) and loser ( impregnated a stripper, didn’t pay child support until a judge ordered him to). who knew he was also one of the worlds top artists as well? that’s not fishy.

Journalistic standards. Trump and his crony's were lying left and right, you can't give that equal treatment. Seriously Jim, look at the effing clown car that his campaign was.

The New York Post was lying left and right? The lefty media called the guy who confirmed what was in some of the emails, a Russian agent. Was there any evidence of that? Or is that what we now do to everyone who criticizes prominent democrats, like Hilary did to Tulsi Gabbard?

It's not journalistic standards to do what Politico did, and investigate whether the emails were valid, and then report honestly on what you found? Except maybe do it before the election, so that voters could decide if they wanted to consider that or not?

They didn’t have the info at the time. Again though, confirming a few emails is irrelevant if they don’t show clear wrongdoing.

Are you thinking about maybe bidding on some artwork?
