What about Hunter Biden's laptop? The media buried it!

What You Say

The laptop was real; the conspiracy theories about it were not. Federal investigators examined the device, and Hunter Biden was prosecuted for tax and gun charges — not for a Biden family bribery scheme. The FBI, IRS, and DOJ under both administrations investigated. Politico, the NY Post, and congressional Republicans had access to the story for years. What was 'buried' was the unverified claim that Joe Biden took bribes — because investigators found no evidence of that.

The Stab

A laptop isn't a get-out-of-jail-free card for every scandal you want to invent.
