    You're mirroring the wrong media. Try the mainstream media - NYTimes, Wash Post, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC (this one is too much anti-Trump, but it's reporting is factual). NEVER rely on FOX or OAN, or MAXNEWS - or any others that range from far right to Kremlin supported. The right-leaning Wall Street Journal is ok.

    I realize you're from another country, so this may help you to discern who's truthful and who's not. When in doubt, google "fact checkers" - most are reliable but some are not. It's easy to tell which is which.

    Might want to watch the ones that were honest enough to report on Hunter Biden's hard drive.

    I see. So you watch the right-wing propaganda. That explains much of what you have been posting. You should try to get a balance by watching the mainstream media.

    That's so funny. CNN is "mainstream media", but Fox is "right-wing propaganda". Thank goodness Athos is not biased.

    Right wingers certainly prefer Fox. Maybe the lack of choices limits you, and it's understandable if mainstream media is biased against your views. I watch and read a number of news sources and easy to filter bias for facts and loony crazy talk.

    Most news services are biased. It's always been that way. My point was that Athos was plainly biased in his choice of terms.

    I can't see how to call it anything but pro-Biden bias when news services absolutely refused to cover the HB hard drive story. It was, and is, a legit scandal which will undoubtedly be swept under the rug when his daddy goes into the WH.

    I guess in the grand scheme of things many see Biden's son's issues as small potatoes compared to the 3 years of lies and crap from the dufus and the turn out and vote count bears that out.

    How did a laptop supposedly belonging to Hunter Biden end up in a Delaware computer repair shop, then go to Rudy Giuliani, then arrive at the New York Post? Smells stinky to me.

    It did not "supposedly belong" to HB. That is beyond question. As to the rest, you don't know and I don't know. That should really bother us. That should be public knowledge by now.

    In this day and age of wondrous ways to create emails and other internet stuff, there is no proof the hard drive belongs to HB. According to the New York Post, an unidentified individual dropped off a MacBook Pro at a Delaware computer repair shop (owned by a Trump supporter) in April 2019 and never came back for it. The shop’s owner noticed a Beau Biden Foundation sticker on the device and decided to look through the hard drive.

    The owner has been repeatedly changing his story about what exactly occurred. He initially said that he wasn’t able to identify who dropped off the laptop because he is “legally blind.” He then said that the customer had identified himself as Hunter Biden. The shop does have two cameras, but the owner claims that the footage from that day was automatically deleted before he realized how important it was.

    It would be just real easy to resolve the whole thing. HB could give the FBI access to his email account and they could compare the two. For that matter, he could give the NY Post access to make the comparison. Someone could ask JB if the laptop belonged to HB. Has that question been asked? Or someone could ask HB if the laptop is his. There would be a lot of ways to resolve the problem, now wouldn't there?

    This does not sound good for HB. "The FBI has seized Hunter Biden's laptop and confirmed the former vice president's son's controversial emails are 'authentic', while dispelling earlier claims that they are part of a Russia disinformation campaign."

    Take your pick. But his daddy is going the be the pres, so I'm sure it will disappear. In fact, it pretty much already has. His last name is not "Trump", so I suppose that you don't care. Hopefully I'm wrong about that.

    I seem to have gotten lost. What did the Biden's do that was illegal again?
