The existence of the laptop has been confirmed, it has been confirmed by the CIA and FBI that there's no evidence it is Russian disinformation. People named in the email chains have confirmed the authenticity of the publicly leaked emails. Biden has boasted publicly about doing the things he is accused of doing for his own gain.
Regardless of where it started you either need to be so partisan that you don't want it to shake your faith in your candidate or you just lack the ability to join the dots.
You love joining dots, but each one of them requires significant amounts of analysis in order to be connected in a way that is meaningful right now, and the fbi doesn't want to do any part of that in public given it would influence the election by even having an appearance of impropriety.
Then, you expect biden to answer for questions you think these unsourced emails raise, and so does greenwald absurdly in that piece. Why on earth would biden do that? I wouldn't talk to a policeman about what he found if he searched the trunk of my car without consent.
Aha, you say, so they did find drugs? Well, yes, but no, in this case. You want him to allow a fishing expedition of questions that invite more questions in the lead up to the election, in reference to information sourced in a way that doesn't pass the sniff test.
If we are in the business of connecting dots without proof, it seems obvious to me the info was shopped on the black market then laundered by a willing stooge.
This in keeping with Trump's public floating of both convention and law in seeking help from foreign adversaries, the very thing trump was impeached for.
And that's precisely why it was released by the campaign in the way it was. It is something useful but isn't ultimately that significant, much like Hillary's emails. In that case there was obvious foreign political meddling. Here we have no idea, there's really no evidence either way. The problem for the Republicans is that they didn't spend 30 years hacking down biden because I don't think anyone looked at him ever, and thought, oh yeah, definite political dynasty here.
