I offer a twist on the classic question. If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound? … If a laptop documenting corruption at the highest levels of government goes unreported to half the population, do we have an informed electorate?
The Hunter Biden laptop computer has been in the possession of the FBI for 6 years, while it’s veracity was denied by the same Justice Department that has now presented it as evidence in the recent felony gun form violation trial of Hunter Biden.
The President’s son’s computer, documents the influence sales, who met with who, from which foreign countries, how much of the cut belongs to Joe Biden, the numerous shell corporations used to hide who got what, etcetera. These things are well known to half the country. There has been extensive reporting by the New York Post, Fox News, NewsMax, and even a book by Miranda Devine. But the USA is segregated, the other half do not trust the aforementioned sources. They prefer the traditional alphabet networks, the New York Times, CNN, and MSNBC. And these sources rarely mention the laptop information except to deride it as Russian disinformation or dismiss it as only of prurient interest.
At last, the Justice Department acknowledged the laptop. What can now justify the continued lack of curiosity by the left-leaning media about the corruption exposed by reading the laptop? The answer is obvious.
Regardless of political persuasion. Truth should never be subsidiary to rhetoric! False claims only undermine the agenda they seek to support.
That lack of candor throughout the narrative is heard repeatedly from the left media: Trump wants to be a dictator; He is just like Hitler; Trump is just about the money. We should look at the facts. Which party brought six criminal cases against their opponent just before an election? Which party weponized the Justice Department against their opponent? Which party used the FBI to spy on their opponent? Which party has jailed and held without bail or charges their opponents? This is the very definition of a banana republic.
So, I implore you, in the interest of an informed electorate, seek out additional sources for information, and listen with a grain of salt to those sources that have knowingly misled you in the past. Test the sources you trust. Truth is the common ground where we can all meet. Searching for and embracing truth is the glue that holds America together.
