Maybe this will explain some of the reasons the Hunter Biden laptop story didn't pass the smell test for mainstream media.
One month before a purported leak of files from Hunter Biden's laptop, a fake "intelligence" document about him went viral on the right-wing internet, asserting an elaborate conspiracy theory involving former Vice President Joe Biden's son and business in China.
The document, a 64-page composition that was later disseminated by close associates of President Donald Trump, appears to be the work of a fake "intelligence firm" called Typhoon Investigations, according to researchers and public documents.
The Hunter Biden scandal is so absurd even Tucker Carlson is no longer playing. Me thinks he had a long talk with a Fox News attorney and realized there will be consequences for continuing to fabricate the story. That, or it finally dawned on him he's turned into the laughing stock of cable TV for promoting it.

You emphasized the wrong word but I helped you out. No one knows what actually happened because the full story is not out there. Nor does anyone know what advice he was given inregards to the situation from attorneys/advisors/parents. Its incredbily complicated beyond what was reported but there are reasons that not much has been heard from him on it.
No one, including the UND staff, is condoning what he did. But they obviously saw something that made them think he was worth a second chance and help him redeem himself. Hopefully this thing doesn't go too far before he even has a chance to do so.
Yes, this is the heart of the issue. Who knows what is happening behind the scenes.
That said, on the PR front, this entire mess could've been mitigated by Miller’s side if they put more effort into publicly making amends. It isn’t difficult. Personally apologize to the victim and his family, volunteer at every opportunity, be outspoken about the issue, set up a foundation, be thoroughly transparent and upfront about Mitchell's actions. These things can be easily verified and corroborated. Yet all we have from Miller's side are a handful of letters claiming he's rehabilitated by doing the minimum. Now I don’t expect some teenager to have the wherewithal to navigate the PR aspect, but his parents should have....especially when your son has a god given talent most kids can only dream of.

I love the "because Jasper has a black brother" narrative that obviously makes him a race virtuoso and the expert on race relations. Classic.
Didn't he recently try to dox the UND soccer coach through a fake twitter account, calling for him to be fired because his girlfriend wasn't playing enough or something?
Two minutes for embellishment on your part.
Weatherby's parents were deeply involved in the civil rights movement, and by all accounts he was engulfed in this ethos from a young age. Of course Weatherby is no race expert; however he's probably far more knowledgeable and aware of racial issues than his hockey playing peers.

Speaking of non-existent damning evidence, what’s up with Hillary’s emails? Earlier this month Trump said he was gonna declassify them and reveal the “biggest crime ever!”
Perhaps they were lost in the mail too.

Maybe someboy from FOX had the package cut and emptied. Slow the smear - only few days left.
FOX didn't want this poison from the start.
Whe wouldn't the source be bringing copies in triplicate to Tucker?
Only the tinfoil hat people are still hanging on to it.
The Wall Street Journal and Fox News have both reported finding no evidence that former Vice President Joe Biden benefited from the Hunter Biden business dealings that have drawn scrutiny. More explicitly pro-Trump media outlets — OAN, Breitbart, Newsmax — have mostly shied away from publishing fresher, more salacious allegations. And conservative talking heads — pundits, politicians and loud MAGA Twitter personalities alike — have been more focused on the meta narrative around the laptop, arguing that mainstream media, social media companies and the deep state are conspiring to prevent President Donald Trump’s reelection by suppressing the story.

McCain lost, life went on. Romney lost, life went on. I'm sure this time could potentially more closely mimic Hillary's defeat, but that'd just be following a path already trailblazed. Right or wrong, that's the new standard that our friends left of center have created, I don't like it and I won't follow it but if others do... well, colleges receiving better be tolerant of some kids wanting a day or two off of school, because that's the standard now.
Gimme a break. The Right whined like toddlers when Obama won. Heck, a large contingent refused to accept he was even a US citizen. And don’t get me started on those right wing religious nutcases. Fire and brimstone were gonna rain down from the skies after Obama was elected!!!

Wait a second here. So she's claiming Miller was still taunting the kid as of 2 years ago? That's 2 years after his conviction. If that's the case, drop him. Miller needs to go. That said, it's odd that such actions wouldn't be in violation of probation or no-contact orders that would've undoubtedly been issued. My, my, such drama.

Nah, the Trump Trash will thoroughly meltdown if Biden wins. They take their cue from President Cheeto, who puts on the biggest crybaby "poor me, I'm treated so unfairly" act in American history.

Dear Leader says things to support insurrection. But, the circle jerk of Trumptard cultists will deflect it or rally around Dear Leader.
Because they care about Dear Leader more than the rule of law in our United States of America.
In a startling moment during his Michigan rally Tuesday, President Donald Trump implied that the militia that attempted to kidnap and kill Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) was maybe or maybe not all that big of a problem.
“People are entitled to say maybe it was a problem, maybe it wasn’t,” Trump told his rally.
It’s a commonly used tactic by Trump to say things like “people say” or “some say” or raise hypotheticals so that it gives him the ability to say “I don’t think that, people do.” But he has never been able to cite the actual person that said that to him.
The GOP complaining about corruption is amusing.

Getting close to a month away from getting the season started. What are peoples thoughts on line combos heading into the season.
Kawaguchi-Pinto-Adams
Mismash-Weatherby-Caulfield
Hain-Senden-Gaber
Blaisdell-Keane-Ness
Kiersted-JBD
Sanderson-Frisch
Kleven-Bast
Miller
Scheel/Thome
Feeney
Scratches-Moore, Rieger, Budy, Albrecht
Those D pairings look nice. But I'd do this with the forwards:
Kawaguchi – Adams – Mismash
Gaber – Pinto – Caulfield
Blaisdell – Weatherby – Budy
Hain – Senden – NessOr maybe switch Mismash and Caulfield for a little more balance.

Trump's expression when Netanyahu says "from anyone in America" is hilarious. What a manchild. Tick tock.....

I still ask how this (juvenile court, 14 year olds) wasn't sealed. That said, ...
Berry owns this now.
And that leash length is measured in angstroms.
In most states courts have the right to open juvenile records and/or proceedings to the public/media if public interest outweighs privacy issues. This looks to be the case here; I'm guessing out of community parental concerns, school safety, etc.

Are these votes already being tallied and published? Or will that all stay under wraps until next week?
From what I understand, voter info (who voted) is of public record down there. How they voted will not be tallied until election day.
Obviously, predictions can be made predicated on demographic voting patterns and polls of people who already voted. That said, I'm inclined to think Trump holds on to Georgia. Nonetheless the fact that Georgia (and Texas for that matter) is in play for the Democrats is pretty crazy.

FiveThirtyEight now giving Biden the lead in Georgia. Corresponds to the mass turn-out.
Georgia’s legacy of voter suppression is driving historic Black turnout

Nice. Looks like we're headed for a historic turnout. With a week to go 66 million early ballots have already been cast, which is roughly 48% of the total votes counted in the 2016 election.

Miller’s parents should shoulder more responsibility for this mess, both for the bullying and the public relations. A 14 year old understands right and wrong, but can’t always comprehend the true depth and ramifications of his/her actions. That’s why bullying is most prevalent and severe at this age; and why parents/schools need to step in when fun goes beyond the typical chirping of 14 year olds.
Bullies, even severe ones, aren’t innately bad kids. They act out for a variety of reasons.
So this begs the question. Where were his parents when he was beating up a handicapped kid for years? You can’t tell me there were no warning signs. Why didn’t his parents demand he personally apologize? This would be the 1st thing any responsible parent would demand. Then again, any 18 year old with a conscious would do it on his own.
Kids are products of their environment. People often change as they mature and are exposed to different ways of life beyond the worldview of their youth. Going to UND, with the responsibilities and lessons that go with it, could be immensely beneficial for Miller.
I trust that Berry has done his due diligence. I’m willing to give Miller a second chance; albeit one on an exceedingly short leash. That said, both parties thoroughly botched it on the public relations front.-

Cratters Fact Check of the Fact Check:
Misleading fact check. While there is not evidence of Obama or Biden's personal relationship with the spying on the Trump campaign. We do know that the FBI under the Obama\Biden administration indeed did spy on the Trump campaign.
Oh yeah and now the current Director of National Intelligence is a compromised Russian Operative and shouldn't be trusted!
The only discrepancy is that Trump still falsely blames Obama. Nowhere in that 9 second video is Obama/Biden even mentioned.
Trump has often said that Obama had a hand in the FBI's investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election. The FBI operation, called Crossfire Hurricane, targeted four men within the Trump campaign orbit, including campaign manager Paul Manafort and national security adviser Michael Flynn.That FBI investigation itself has been the subject of investigations by the Justice Department and Congress.
Not one found that Obama initiated or meddled in the FBI's work. Not one concluded that the FBI lacked good reason to launch the investigation.

Check this fivethirtyeight poll. Nate Silver is a Dem.
Check out the grow in Black and Hispanic group under 44 years old. Huge swing to Trump. Why is Obamer trying to save Joe.
Even with that shift, 80% of younger blacks are still voting Biden; as are 65% of younger Hispanics. That's NOT good news for Trump, particularly considering these demographics didn't turn-out en masse 4 years ago. And that's on top of (as the link you posted stated) Trump is losing the white vote.
And you think this is a good sign for Trump?

Unfortunately for the fringe right, these unproven/conspiracy theories aren't gaining traction. FOX News isn't even touching most of it.
Perhaps you nutcases can push cannibalism next. I heard somewhere the Bidens eat human flesh, at the stroke of midnight, under a full moon!

This is quite interesting, and likely why the FBI is moving very slowly with the contents of the laptop:One of Rudy's key associates is claiming Hunter’s emails and photos were being shopped around Ukraine in early 2019. This validates TIME’s article of last week that details the same, only with other sources. Giuliani was on a mission to get his hands on the materials while other actors in Ukraine were trying to profit from them.
Does this mean Hunter's documents are fake? Not exactly. But where did these emails originate? Were they hacked? Russian disinformation? The FBI knows as well as anybody that establishing provenance is exceedingly important in ascertaining validity, particularly with so much falsification and disinformation out there. I mean even the biggest idiot knows the "Hunter left his laptop at a repair store" story made no sense. It was a means to introduce these emails into the public sphere for political purposes.

There are a lot of bad takes in this thread, but this one is definitely up there regardless of your thoughts on the virus. To legitimately think that knowing if you are CoVid positive or not adn who you may or may not have exposed to the virus absolutely won't make a difference is impressive. Especially considering early detection has been huge in treatments.
So let me get this straigth: China owns the Biden's and because of that, it would obviously be in their best interest to have Biden elected, yet China is the one releasing videos that will hurt Biden? That takes some mental gymnastics to comprehend how that makes any sense.
China didn’t release the video. The video was uploaded to some Chinese media site that is a subsidiary of GTV Media Group, the American company founded by Steve Bannon and a Chinese dissident. This is the same company currently under investigation by the FBI and SEC for scamming Trump donors out of $300 million.
