• Twitter execs lying under oath

    “Twitter noticed activity related to the laptop that at first glance bore a lot of similarities to the 2016 Russian hack and leak operation targeting the DNC,” Roth said during a hearing held by the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability. “
    We had to decide what to do. And in that moment with limited information, Twitter made a mistake.”

    WTF is similar to DNC e-mails? Nothing. What a load of lying ass BS.

    I know you have problems with comparisons, contrasts, and literary
    devices but this seems beneath you.

    Hint: both likely stolen, possibly by Russia.

    Likely? One call to computer repair shop could verify it was not "stolen".
    But no call was made. They didn't want to really know.
    They even said they were waiting for verification but made no verification
    of their own. WTF?

    Yes....they made up an excuse. But they made no mistake.

    How did its contents circulate in Ukraine the previous year? And the
    owner was vision impaired and couldn't identify who dropped off the item.

    More to the point: it wasn't the laptop but its contents that were stolen.

    But no call was made. They didn't want to really know.

    Twitter is not journalism. If you want to post, you verify.

    "Twitter’s decision to suppress reporting on Hunter’s business efforts
    was purportedly based on suspicions that the stories relied on documents
    that might have been hacked by Russians—the precise scenario that
    occurred in 2016—and that those documents might include forgeries mixed
    with real material, a tactic Russian agents reportedly tried in France
    in 2017. But those fears were not borne out. In retrospect, as former
    Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey later acknowledged, the decision to block the
    Post story appears to have been a serious misstep."

    Hunter has admitted it was his.
    In the footsteps of your beloved Hillary, at this point what difference does it make?

    Now you're just buying into the desperate smear campaign. It was Hunter's laptop and
    it's full of damning incriminating information on the Biden criminal enterprise.
    And you can't believe it. Pretend it's all dirt on Trump and you'll feel better.

    Rudy, Derkach, Lutsenko...

    Say, wasn't the last guy the one removed as Attorney General for
    corruption, Russian ties and refusing to prosecute?

    Background: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2019/12/23/the-ukrainian-prosecutor-behind-trumps-impeachment

    In a long conversation with me this past November, Giuliani largely
    confirmed Lutsenko’s account of their relationship... Giuliani compiled
    a dossier on the Bidens and Yovanovitch, which he sent to Secretary of
    State Mike Pompeo, and which was shared with the F.B.I. and with me.
    John Solomon, a journalist, had interviewed Lutsenko for the
    Washington-based publication The Hill. Giuliani promoted the project. “I said, ‘John, let’s make this as prominent as possible,’ ” Giuliani told me. “ ‘I’ll go on TV. You go on TV. You do columns.’ ”

    Unquote.

    Archive of WaPo:

    https://archive.ph/hHO3e

    “The two people who said they were approached with Hunter Biden’s
    alleged emails last year did not know whether any of them were real and
    they declined to identify who was behind the offers,” Time’s Simon
    Shuster wrote. “ … The two people said they could not confirm whether
    any of the material presented to them was the same as that which has
    been recently published in the U.S.” At least one, though, said the
    material in the Post was “familiar-looking.”

    Not that the other guy is great:

    And the owner was vision impaired and couldn't identify who dropped
    off the item.

    Hunter has admitted it was his. In the footsteps of your beloved
    Hillary, at this point what difference does it make?

    The laptop is not the same thing as the hard drive images that were
    circulated. Those images were altered, added to, and otherwise messed with.

    Now you're just buying into the desperate smear campaign. It was
    Hunter's laptop and it's full of damning incriminating information on
    the Biden criminal enterprise. And you can't believe it. Pretend
    it's all dirt on Trump and you'll feel better.

    The "damning" info has been circulated and it's weak tea, ordinary
    influence proximity grift, bad but not illegal.

    If relatives were forbidden from doing business with government, DC
    would be empty. Maybe that's a good idea, but it's not the current way
    of doing business.

    Then I disagree. They appear to have taken the matter seriously,

    their actions when they recognized their mistake.

    Unlike most of the right-wing.
