The Delaware computer repair store worker who served as the whistleblower in the Hunter Biden laptop case filed a lawsuit on Wednesday against Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), CNN, the Daily Beast, and Politico, claiming they falsely accused him of promoting Russian disinformation.
Now-former Mac shop owner John Paul Mac Isaac is seeking to clear his name after 18 months of attacks by mainstream media and local residents in President Joe Biden&#8217;s home state.
“After fighting to reveal the truth, all I want now is for the rest of the country to know that there was a collective and orchestrated effort by social and mainstream media to block a real story with real consequences for the nation,” Mac Isaac said in a <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/05/03/repairman-who-revealed-hunter-biden-laptop-sues-schiff-cnn-politico-beast/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> to the New York Post.
“This was collusion led by 51 former pillars in the intelligence community and backed by words and actions of a politically motivated DOJ and FBI,” he continued. “I want this lawsuit to reveal that collusion and more importantly, who gave the marching orders.”
Hunter reportedly dropped off the laptop in April 2019 and never returned to pick it up. Mac Isaac shared a copy of the computer&#8217;s data with the FBI in December 2019.
In 2020, a copy of the data was obtained by Rudy Giuliani, who at the time served as a lawyer for then-President Donald Trump. Giuliani reportedly shared a copy of the information with the Post ahead of the 2020 presidential election.
Mac Isaac became a target of the Left as social media censored stories regarding the Hunter Biden scandal ahead of the election. His store later closed, with the whistleblower claiming that he received hateful messages and death threats.
In March, The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/03/30/hunter-biden-laptop-data-examined/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">confirmed</a> the authenticity of the laptop and its contents.
&#8220;Thousands of emails purportedly from the laptop computer of Hunter Biden, President Biden’s son, are authentic communications that can be verified through cryptographic signatures from Google and other technology companies, say two security experts who examined the data at the request of The Washington Post,&#8221; the outlet reported in a story more than a year after the data&#8217;s initial release.
The emails spanned a period from 2009 to 2019 that also included the eight years Joe Biden served as vice president under President Barack Obama.
Some of the messages included business dealings between Hunter Biden and a Chinese energy firm from which he garnered nearly $5 million. The nature of the business communications has led many to push for further investigation into a potential conflict of interest.
The information on Hunter&#8217;s laptop also takes on new importance after recent information, reported by The Daily Wire, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/report-joe-biden-granted-west-wing-meeting-to-hunter-associate-while-he-was-vp" target="_blank" rel="noopener">revealed</a> that Hunter&#8217;s closest business partner spent a lot of time visiting the White House between 2009 and 2015. In at least one visit, the business partner apparently even scored a meeting with “the big guy” himself, a reference to Joe Biden found in one of the laptop emails.
New York Post reporters Miranda Devine and Jon Levine laid out the details of that West Wing meeting — along with over a dozen other White House visits that included meetings with aides close to the Bidens — in their most recent <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/04/23/joe-biden-met-with-hunter-biden-business-partner-at-the-white-house/">report</a>.
The White House <a href="https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/goodgovernment/tools/visitor-records">visitor logs</a> revealed a number of visits from <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/exclusive-joe-biden-turned-corruption-into-the-family-business-new-book-alleges/">Eric Schwerin</a> — including a sit-down with then-Vice President Joe Biden — while he was president of the now-defunct investment fund Rosemont Seneca Partners.

MSNBC host Ari Melber took some heat Monday for complaining that Elon Musk might use his newly-acquired control of Twitter to silence some voices and amplify others.
A number of critics responded to his complaint, calling out the obvious irony and pointing out the fact that Twitter had been <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/twitter-ceo-admits-algorithm-has-been-unfair-james-barrett/">using algorithms</a> that effectively stifled conservative voices for years — particularly with regard to Hunter Biden and the New York Post story that was <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/twitter-refuses-to-unlock-new-york-post-account-until-outlet-deletes-hunter-biden-coverage-tweets/">actively blocked</a> across several platforms.
&#8220;If you own all of Twitter or Facebook or what have you. You don’t have to explain yourself. You don’t even have to be transparent. You could secretly ban one party’s candidate or all of its candidates, all of its nominees. You could just secretly turn down the reach of their stuff and turn up the reach of something else and the rest of us might not find out until after the election,&#8221; Melber said. &#8220;Elon Musk says this is all to help people because he is just a free speech, philosophically clear, open-minded helper.&#8221;

Russian President Vladamir Putin once again is prompting concerns about his health.
At a church service on Sunday in Moscow, Putin appeared to be unsteady and fidgety, at times biting his lips and making awkward faces.
&#8220;Fresh theories surrounding Vladimir Putin’s health are circulating after a recent appearance by the Russian president showed him biting his lips, fidgeting and appearing unsteady,&#8221; Sky News <a href="https://www.skynews.com.au/world-news/global-affairs/video-of-unsteady-vladimir-putin-fuels-rumours-about-secret-ailing-health/video/a1333f1bdef264e4ee7789ae6a4ed3f6">reported</a>. &#8220;Mr Putin’s appearance at a church service has now sparked rumours that he is unwell after he seemed unable to stand still during the service.&#8221;
Putin&#8217;s latest appearance follows another last week, when the 69 year old appeared bloated as he firmly gripped a table during a Kremlin meeting with his defense minister, Sergei Shoigu. Both men appeared in ill health, with Shoigu slurring his words following a stroke he suffered earlier this year.
&#8220;Putin&#8217;s meeting with Shoigu today shows both depressed &amp; seemingly in bad health. Shoigu has to read his comments to Putin &amp; slurs badly, suggesting that the rumors of his heart attack are likely. He sits badly. Poor performance. Worth watching,&#8221; Anders Åslund wrote on Twitter.

&#8220;Former UK politician Louise Mensch said the footage appeared to back earlier reports that &#8216;Vladimir Putin has Parkinson’s disease,'&#8221; the New York Post <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/04/25/putin-appears-fidgety-at-church-service-during-illness-rumors/">reported</a>. &#8220;Other reports have suggested that Putin has recently had 35 secret meetings with a cancer doctor — and has become so paranoid about his health that he has turned to unconventional therapies.&#8221;
&#8220;PS: I reported, Vladimir Putin has Parkinson’s disease and here you can see him gripping the table so that his shaking hand is not visible but he cannot stop his foot from tapping,&#8221; Mensch wrote on Twitter.
The Daily Mail <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10748825/Putin-looks-unsteady-Easter-church-service-footage-showing-biting-lip-fidgeting.html">reported</a> that Putin also &#8216;Appeared to chew the insides of his mouth, shifting uncomfortably, adding to a swirl of commentary that the pressure of Russian setbacks over the war in Ukraine was getting to him. A dry mouth can be a symptom of Parkinson&#8217;s Disease — a condition which the Kremlin was forced to deny Putin was suffering from last year.&#8221;
The Mail also <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10750825/Russia-accused-FAKING-Putins-Easter-service-visit.html">offered</a> another theory, this one from conspiracy buffs.
&#8220;Questions have emerged on whether Russian President Vladimir Putin really attended an Orthodox Easter service in Moscow this past weekend after pictures issued by the Kremlin bore a startling resemblance to images from last year. The images, purportedly taken one year apart, appear to show Putin dressed in the same suit and look extremely similar — the only clearly discernible difference being the colour of his tie.&#8221;
&#8220;But images and video footage of the event have been seized upon by opposition media in Russia and Ukraine, suggesting the new clips were faked from last year&#8217;s service on May 2, 2021,&#8221; the Mail reported.

President Joe Biden&#8217;s often-repeated humble brag about his ranking as the &#8220;poorest man in Congress&#8221; — along with his claim that people should not make money while holding public office — appeared to be at odds with some of the alleged lucrative business deals mentioned in emails and texts tied to his son Hunter.
Biden brought up the topic on Tuesday at Port Authority in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, during a speech touting the impact of his bipartisan infrastructure deal.
&#8220;The recently completed Piscataqua River turning basin project, led by the Army Corps of Engineers, received $1.6 million from the infrastructure law, topping off the $18.2 million the Army Corps had allocated for the project in fiscal year 2021,&#8221; Seacoastonline <a href="https://www.seacoastonline.com/story/news/local/2022/04/19/joe-biden-portsmouth-nh-visit-infrastructure-live-updates/7355951001/">reported</a>.

&#8220;I was listed — I had the great pleasure of being listed as the poorest man in Congress for 36 years,&#8221; Biden said. &#8220;I still had — was making a hell of a lot more money than anybody else because I was getting a senator&#8217;s salary. No kidding.&#8221;
&#8220;I didn&#8217;t think you should make money while you&#8217;re in office,&#8221; he continued, adding, &#8220;But at any rate, the point of it is this: an awful lot of people are hurting. It makes a big difference.&#8221;
Biden&#8217;s claim that politicians should not make money while serving the people appeared to fly in the face of reports — and even Hunter Biden&#8217;s own admission — that the family name was used to secure meetings and possibly even grease the wheels of foreign business transactions.

Another buyer is reportedly working on a potential bid for Twitter as entrepreneur Elon Musk is trying to buy the entire company with a massive $43 billion bid.
&#8220;Private equity giant Thoma Bravo is working on a possible bid for Twitter &#8230; setting up what could be a rival to Elon Musk’s offer for the social giant,&#8221; the New York Post <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/04/14/elon-musk-could-have-competition-thoma-bravo-considers-bid-for-twitter/">reported</a>. &#8220;It’s not clear what Thoma Bravo might bid or when it would present the Twitter board with its bid. The firm has an internal team working on the potential transaction.&#8221;
One source told the Post that the company, which already owns other tech firms, was &#8220;making a push&#8221; to buy Twitter while a second source told the newspaper, “You are not far off.”
The news comes as another shareholder <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/elon-musk-no-longer-twitters-largest-shareholder-after-another-buyer-ups-its-stake-in-the-company">upped</a> its stake in the company, knocking Musk off his perch as the company’s largest shareholder.
“Asset manager Vanguard Group recently upped its stake in the social-media platform and is now the company’s largest shareholder, bumping Mr. Musk out of the top spot,” The Wall Street Journal reported. “Vanguard disclosed on April 8 that it now owns 82.4 million shares of Twitter, or 10.3% of the company, according to the most recent publicly available filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.”
Musk gave a TED Talk on Thursday where he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/musk-reveals-during-ted-talk-that-there-is-a-plan-b-if-twitter-rejects-his-offer-to-buy-the-company">addressed</a> matters involving his attempts to buy the company, including his backup plan in case the move fails.
“If in this case you are not successful in that the board does not accept your offer, you’ve said you won’t go higher, is there a plan B?” Musk was asked.
“There is,” Musk responded while smiling.
When asked what his backup plan is, Musk said he would discuss that at another time.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
“I think it’s very important for there to be an inclusive arena for free speech,” Musk said during the event. “Twitter has become kind of the de facto town square, so it’s really important that people have both the reality and perception that they’re able to speak freely within the bounds of the law.”
Musk said that Twitter needed to make its algorithm open sourced and that any action the company takes against tweets needs to be thoroughly explained to the public to stop “behind the scenes manipulation” on the platform by the company.
“It’s important to the function of democracy, it’s important to the function of the United States as a free country and many other countries, and to help freedom in the world more broadly than in the U.S.,” Musk said. “Civilizational risk is decreased the more we can increase the trust of Twitter as a public platform, and so I do think this will be somewhat painful.”
“My strong intuitive sense is that having a public platform that is maximally trusted and broadly inclusive is extremely important to the future of civilization,” Musk said. “I don’t care about the economics at all.”
According to Musk, Twitter’s secret algorithms, which he said promote some tweets while not promoting others, can be “quite dangerous.”

Social Media Bias

With every day that passes, it becomes increasingly clear that there is far more truth to the infamous “Hunter Biden laptop story” than the legacy media ever dared to admit. 
Even though investigatory crosshairs are now closing on the business dealings of the entire Biden family, with some media figures acknowledging that there might be something of interest to discover, there is a parallel viewpoint that must be protected: that the Hunter Biden “faux scandal” had no impact on the election.
“They now think that if only the ‘media’ had told us about the laptop at the time …Trump would have won. But for the censoring of the New York Post, Trump would have won,” <a href="https://twitter.com/ThinkerChicago/status/1512086977234931722">said</a> Jonah Goldberg, who went on to describe the notion that the lack of coverage of the Hunter Biden scandal had any impact on the 2020 election as a “preposterous counterfactual.”
And Goldberg is not alone. For example, during the same event, staff writer for The Atlantic, Anne Applebaum, <a href="https://twitter.com/ClayTravis/status/1511853692160458752">claimed</a> that the Hunter Biden laptop story was “irrelevant,” and uninteresting. 
This viewpoint mirrors messaging prior to and in the immediate aftermath of the 2020 election. For example, Sen. Schumer <a href="https://uk.news.yahoo.com/hunter-biden-irrelevant-distraction-schumer-171919621.html?guccounter=1&amp;guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&amp;guce_referrer_sig=AQAAABembEkwVng3XZl_SrdfSXvcFKvZNDPzC26km3BQffRNOKS_IFYwbrHxzBneWslj1HcBdVugyQPlh_GaDhSatiioOmxIPJcr_fURaUPsIG91TTQ6VO2Lf7sQU8eHA4lQYXpBsveck92Ac9dXdBAGGDcIyzrY4sq_HSgoDkr5mCcX">described</a> Hunter Biden as “irrelevant” and a “distraction” in January 2020, while multiple pundits <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/cnn-msnbc-dismissed-hunter-bidens-laptop-russian-disinformation-narrative-deflated">called</a> the story &#8220;Russian misinformation&#8221; after the election took place.
However, as data from the time shows, Hunter Biden is not only relevant, but potentially pivotal.
In November 2020, the Media Research Center commissioned The Polling Company to <a href="https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/rich-noyes/2020/11/24/special-report-stealing-presidency-2020">survey</a> 1,750 Biden voters in seven swing states (Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin).
A massive 45.1% of Biden voters polled said they were “unaware of the financial scandal enveloping Biden and his son, Hunter,” adding that “full awareness of the Hunter Biden scandal would have led 9.4% of Biden voters to abandon the Democratic candidate.”
And it’s this 9.4% change that could have been hugely consequential when we consider Biden’s winning margins in six of these swing states. Biden won Arizona by 0.3%, Georgia by 0.23%, Michigan by 2.8%, Nevada by 2.4%, Pennsylvania by 1.2%, and Wisconsin by 0.63%. A swing of 9.4% would have handed each of these states to former President Donald Trump, giving him 79 additional electoral votes.
His total in this scenario? 311 electoral votes, 41 votes over the 270 electoral votes required to win the presidential election.
So even while the Democratic Party and their media accomplices cling to the notion that Hunter Biden remains an “irrelevant” and “uninteresting” “distraction,” the fact remains clear: one act of <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/03/30/washington-post-admits-hunter-biden-laptop-is-real/">baseless</a> censorship helped win the election for Joe Biden.
That seems pretty relevant to me.

How The Censorship Of Hunter Biden’s Laptop Story Helped Joe Biden Win

2020 Election

Social Media Censorship

Actor Alec Baldwin erupted at a New York Post reporter on Monday evening for asking him questions and had to be restrained by his wife.
Reporter Jon Levine ran into Baldwin while walking around New York City and asked him what brought him to the area.
Baldwin&#8217;s wife, Hilaria, immediately tried to get Levine to leave as she recorded him.
Alec Baldwin erupted, pointing an umbrella at Levine and angrily walking toward him.
&#8220;You are not allowed to photograph onto somebody&#8217;s private home,&#8221; Alec Baldwin said as he had to be restrained by his wife. &#8220;You can&#8217;t photograph onto somebody&#8217;s private home.&#8221;

Baldwin did not answer questions about recent remarks that he made during an ABC News interview where he claimed that he did not pull the trigger on a firearm that discharged a round on the set of &#8220;Rust&#8221; that hit and killed Halyna Hutchins, a cinematographer.

WATCH: Alec Baldwin Erupts At Reporter Asking Questions, Wife Forced To Hold Him Back

Alec Baldwin

The New York Times rushed to defend a school counselor who taught first grade students about masturbation, instructed high school students about “porn literacy,” and said her “sex-positive” views should replace the Golden Rule. They went on to present a parent who opposed the teacher as manipulated, murder-minded pawns of inside-the-Beltway lobbyists.
On Thursday, the newspaper’s Style section featured a glowing portrait of Justine Ang Fonte, who had worked at the Dalton School. The Old Gray Lady <a href="https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1412879138478768131">summarized</a> the story on Twitter: “Pornography literacy classes are supposed to teach students how to critically assess what they see on the screen. But when a sex-positive educator taught her curriculum at two elite New York City schools recently, some parents were outraged.”
Fonte showed first graders at Columbia Grammar &amp; Preparatory School a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOcaYIaeEDQ">cartoon</a> describing masturbation. The animated feature shows an underage boy telling an adult, “Sometimes, I touch my penis, because it feels good.” An underage girl then tells the boy, “When I’m in my bath or Mom puts me to bed, I like to touch my vulva, too.”
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Help kids learn that bodies are private [with Scoops &amp; Friends]" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/JOcaYIaeEDQ?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
&nbsp;
Her high school presentation, “Pornography Literacy: An intersectional focus on mainstream porn,” became more explicit yet. As The Daily Wire’s Mairead McArdle <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/parents-at-elite-nyc-private-school-outraged-over-graphic-sex-ed-videos-shown-to-first-graders">reported</a>:
<blockquote>About 120 juniors, girls and boys, at Columbia Grammar &amp; Preparatory School were subjected to Fonte’s class, called “Pornography Literacy: An intersectional focus on mainstream porn,” which presented them with explicit material including slides.
Fonte’s class included material such as semi-nude women in bondage, porn genres including “incest-themed,” “barely legal,” and “kink and BDSM,” and the most searched pornography terms of 2019 including “creampie,” “anal,” and “gangbang.”
Parents initially heard about the objectionable first grade sex-ed classes last fall but were reportedly assured that they had “misinterpreted” what the class was about.</blockquote>
Parents learned about the presentations only because, due to COVID-19, many of the students watched the session on Zoom.
The readers of The New York Times would be none the wiser about Fonte’s content from reading the story. Their reporting contained not a word about her porn literacy session, but the Times reported editorialized, “While <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2020/jan/31/porn-survey-uk-teenagers-viewing-habits-bbfc">parents may not want to believe</a> that their teenagers are viewing pornography, many of them <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/20/opinion/sunday/when-did-porn-become-sex-ed.html">probably</a> <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/07/magazine/teenagers-learning-online-porn-literacy-sex-education.html">are</a>, on purpose or by accident.” Reporter Valeriya Safronova noted that sex education classes have “expanded” beyond pregnancy or sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) to “unhealthy relationships, body positivity, sexual orientation, reproductive justice and gender identity.” Pornography literacy classes like those taught by Fonte allegedly teach students “to critically assess what they see on the screen” and “deconstruct implicit gender roles.”
“Sex educators compare it to teaching math, or English,” The New York Times reported.
Fonte also minimized the scope of her primary school sex presentations.
“I equip them with a way that they can exercise body agency and consent, by knowing exactly what those parts are, what they are called, and how to take care of them.” Besides, technically “[t]he material for her first-grade class never used the term ‘masturbation,’” the Times reported. The assertion may be technically true but irrelevant: Fonte clearly showed 6- and 7-year-old children a video that described fondling their own genitals. Presumably, this kind of sophistry explains how so many reporters can insist <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/here-are-5-ways-the-media-is-trying-to-mislead-you-on-critical-race-theory">K-12 schools don’t teach Critical Race Theory</a>.
Fonte also said she merely taught the importance of consent, which she said contradicts and should replace the Golden Rule. “We’re still teaching the [G]olden [R]ule and we should be teaching the platinum rule: to treat others the way they want to be treated,” Fonte told the Times.
When parents rose up in outrage, the Times presented Fonte as a martyr. “Fonte weathered the recent attacks on her reputation, violent threats in her inbox and the experience of being doxxed,” the Times said. Fonte asserted that she had served her young charges nobly, but “it cost me my safety.”
In reality, parents objected to an overly <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/five-disgusting-examples-of-schools-pushing-graphic-sex-ed-on-children">explicit</a> (and amoral) presentation being made to their children without their consent. One outraged parent told the New York Post, “It’s outrageous that the school is introducing pornography into a mainstream classroom and starting to indoctrinate kids. The goal of this is to disrupt families.”
That parent may not have known how right she was.
Former abortionist Carol Everett, who is now a pro-life advocate, has <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6uqd-i8-nI">described</a> how she used sex education classes to “sell abortion” to underage girls. “Sex education sells abortions, and we started in kindergarten,” she said. “You have to break down the natural modesty. You have to become the experts in their lives, and you have to separate them from their parents and their values.”
She explained that the first step begins in kindergarten by establishing that their parents’ nicknames for their private parts are not scientifically accurate, establishing sex education counselors as more knowledgeable than their family. “In kindergarten, they just put the kids in a circle, and they ask a very simple question: What do you say to call your private parts?” Since families use different nicknames, “by the time you reach the third or fourth child, it is clear to those children that their parents don’t know” the anatomically correct names of their genitalia. “But we did.”
“We’d done it,” she said. “We’d broken down the natural modesty, and we were becoming the sexperts in their lives.”
During a later sex education talk which she gave about the time the schoolchildren reached the onset of puberty, she’d ask girls whether their parents would help them get birth control if they began having sex. If not, she told them, “‘Don’t worry about that: Here’s my card.’ This is the sad part: The next day, those girls would call.”
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Sex Education Sells Abortion Per Abortion Provider Planned Parenthood Carol Everett War on Children" width="500" height="375" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/g6uqd-i8-nI?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Rather than say parents should have some say over the most intimate aspects of their children’s education at a school where they’re paying <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/parents-outraged-after-47000-per-year-prep-school-hosts-porn-workshop-for-teen-students">$47,000</a> a year, The New York Times quoted another sex education activist who said parents should “acknowledge young people’s rights to have this information.”
The Times concluded that “Fonte is planning to write children’s books” in order to “spread her message far beyond the Upper East Side.” Parents have the choice whether to purchase books for their children. Shouldn’t they have the same choice over their minor children’s education? Isn’t that the definition of “consent”?

New York Times Shocked: Parents Oppose ‘Porn Literacy’ In Schools

New York Times

Pornography

The New York Post has called for a federal investigation into Governor Andrew Cuomo&#8217;s administration after one of his top aides allegedly told state lawmakers in a conference call that the Cuomo administration withheld nursing home fatality data.
“Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s top aide confessed privately this week that the administration suppressed the true COVID toll in the homes,” wrote the New York Post’s <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/02/12/cuomo-lied-and-covered-it-up-we-need-a-federal-investigation-to-find-the-truth/">editorial board</a>. “She also offered an apology — not to the thousands of New York families who needlessly lost loved ones thanks to her boss’s mismanagement but to Democratic lawmakers put in a difficult ‘political position with the Republicans’ by the coverup.”
“A federal investigation may be the only way to get the full truth of Team Cuomo’s order to nursing homes, populated by those most vulnerable to the virus, to take in COVID-positive patients. Not just the &#8216;what&#8217; of how many lives it cost, but the &#8216;why&#8217; behind this madness, and the months and months of coverup,” reads the editorial.
As the <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/02/11/cuomo-aide-admits-they-hid-nursing-home-data-from-feds/">New York Post</a> first reported, Melissa DeRosa, the governor’s chief of staff, allegedly told Democratic lawmakers in a private call that fear of a potential DOJ investigation by the Trump administration played a “very large role” in why the Cuomo administration withheld data.
According to <a href="https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2021/02/cuomo-faces-crisis-over-alleged-nursing-home-death-cover-up.html">New York Magazine</a>, DeRosa said on the call:
<blockquote>I don’t know that this is going to satisfy you, but it’s the truth and the truth works almost every time. The letter comes in at the end of August and right around the same time, President Trump turns this into a giant political football. He starts tweeting that we killed everyone in nursing homes, he starts going after [other Democratic governors over their responses to the pandemic.] He directs the Department of Justice to do an investigation into us. He finds one person at DOJ who since has been fired because this person is now known to be a political hack who sends letters out to all of these different governors. Basically, we froze because then we were in a position where we weren’t sure if what we were going to give to the Department of Justice or what we give to you guys and what we start saying was going to be used against us and we weren’t sure if there was going to be an investigation. That played a very large role into this.</blockquote>
More than 9,000 patients recovering from COVID-19 were sent back to nursing homes under the Cuomo administration&#8217;s directive, according to <a href="https://apnews.com/article/new-york-andrew-cuomo-us-news-coronavirus-pandemic-nursing-homes-512cae0abb55a55f375b3192f2cdd6b5">The Associated Press</a>, which noted that this figure is 40% higher than the state&#8217;s previously reported figures. Furthermore, 15,000 people from nursing homes in New York died, a figure that the state previously suggested was closer to 8,500.
The New York Post editorial board suggested that a special counsel may be needed in the investigation, particularly because of Cuomo&#8217;s ties to the White House, where he was on Friday afternoon. The editorial board concluded: “New York needs to get to the bottom of Cuomo &amp; Co.’s pack of lies. The public needs the full truth — and accountability.”
More than a dozen Democratic state senators called Friday for the repeal of Cuomo’s emergency powers, including his capacity to enact directives on a unilateral basis.
“Without exception, the New York State Constitution calls for the Legislature to govern as a co-equal branch of government,” they <a href="https://twitter.com/JonCampbellGAN/status/1360267092013031437?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1360267092013031437%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailywire.com%2Fnews%2Fnew-york-democrat-state-senators-issue-statement-calling-for-cuomos-emergency-powers-to-be-stripped">wrote</a>. “While COVID-19 has tested the limits of our people and state – and, early during the pandemic, required the government to restructure decision making to render rapid, necessary public health judgments – it is clear that the expanded emergency powers granted to the Governor are no longer appropriate. While the executive’s authority to issue directives is due to expire on April 30, we urge the Senate to advance and adopt a repeal as expeditiously as possible.”

According to the New York Post, Secretary to the Governor Melissa DeRosa — New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s top aide — reportedly “privately apologized to Democratic lawmakers for withholding the state’s nursing-home death toll from COVID-19.”
The <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/02/11/cuomo-aide-admits-they-hid-nursing-home-data-from-feds/">New York Post</a> reports that DeRosa told state Democratic leaders during a video conference call that “‘we froze’ out of fear the true numbers would ‘be used against us.’” During the call, DeRosa reportedly explained that the Cuomo administration’s decision to rebuff a “legislative request” for the COVID-19 death count in August was in large part motivated by the thought that “right around the same time, [then-President Donald Trump] turns this into a giant political football.”
The report continues to quote DeRosa, who allegedly said, “He starts tweeting that we killed everyone in nursing homes. He starts going after [New Jersey Gov. Phil] Murphy, starts going after [California Gov. Gavin] Newsom, starts going after [Michigan Gov.] Gretchen Whitmer.”
The report adds:
<blockquote>In addition to attacking Cuomo’s fellow Democratic governors, DeRosa said, Trump “directs the Department of Justice to do an investigation into us.”
“And basically, we froze,” she told the lawmakers on the call.
“Because then we were in a position where we weren’t sure if what we were going to give to the Department of Justice, or what we give to you guys, what we start saying, was going to be used against us while we weren’t sure if there was going to be an investigation.”
DeRosa added: “That played a very large role into this.”</blockquote>
Later, DeRosa reportedly apologized to her fellow Democrats for the “political position” they put them in.
“So we do apologize,” she said, per the Post. “I do understand the position that you were put in. I know that it is not fair. It was not our intention to put you in that political position with the Republicans.”
In August 2020, the United States Department of Justice “<a href="https://nypost.com/2020/08/26/doj-probes-nursing-home-deaths-in-4-states-including-in-ny/">opened</a> a preliminary inquiry into the coronavirus nursing home policies of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Michigan,” questioning if those policies “may have resulted in the deaths of thousands of elderly nursing home residents.”
Specifically, the Justice Department focused on the policies of Gov. Cuomo and his Health Commissioner Dr. Howard Zucker, whose March 25 order stated that “No resident shall be denied re-admission or admission to [a nursing home] solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19. [Nursing homes] are prohibited from requiring a hospitalized resident who is determined medically stable to be tested for COVID-19 prior to admission or readmission.”
On January 28, The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nursing-home-deaths-in-new-york-were-massively-undercounted-new-york-ag-finds">reported</a> that New York’s death toll from coronavirus-related nursing home deaths &#8220;may be much higher than what was reported by the state,” after a <a href="https://ag.ny.gov/sites/default/files/2021-nursinghomesreport.pdf">report</a> from New York Attorney General Letitia James determined that “COVID-19 resident deaths associated with nursing homes in New York state appear to be undercounted by DOH by approximately 50 percent.”
After it was revealed that “nearly 13,000 people died in New York nursing homes due to COVID-19,” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/covid-19-killed-14-of-new-yorks-nursing-home-population">on February 5</a>, “the Empire Center, a non-partisan think tank, reported that number accounts for 14% of New York’s ‘pre-pandemic nursing home population.’”

Report: Cuomo’s Top Aide Says New York Hid ‘Nursing-Home Death Toll’: ‘We Froze’ Out Of Fear Of Fed Spotlight

New York

The New York Post Editorial Board published a piercing op-ed and newspaper cover late on Sunday urging President Donald Trump to accept the results of the recent election, saying that he was damaging himself by not doing so.
The piece began by calling on Trump to &#8220;end this dark charade&#8221; of trying to overturn the election result, warning that if he continues down this road he could end up undoing many of his accomplishments if he does not unite the Republican Party ahead of the U.S. Senate runoff races in Georgia next month. The New York Post said that Trump was essentially &#8220;cheering for an undemocratic coup&#8221; in the presidential election.
&#8220;Sidney Powell is a crazy person,&#8221; the New York Post wrote. &#8220;Michael Flynn suggesting martial law is tantamount to treason. It is shameful.&#8221;
The New York Post, which is consistently ranked as one of top five most circulated papers in the country, urged Trump to focus on the Senate races next month.
The Editorial Board <a href="https://nypost.com/2020/12/27/give-it-up-mr-president-for-your-sake-and-the-nations/">wrote</a>:
<blockquote>You had every right to investigate the election. But let’s be clear: Those efforts have found nothing. To take just two examples: Your campaign paid $3 million for a recount in two Wisconsin counties, and you lost by 87 more votes. Georgia did two recounts of the state, each time affirming Biden’s win. These ballots were counted by hand, which alone debunks the claims of a Venezuelan vote-manipulating Kraken conspiracy. &#8230;
We understand, Mr. President, that you’re angry that you lost. But to continue down this road is ruinous. We offer this as a newspaper that endorsed you, that supported you: If you want to cement your influence, even set the stage for a future return, you must channel your fury into something more productive. &#8230;
If Republicans David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler win, they will prevent Biden from rolling back what you have accomplished. A Republican Senate can pressure Biden against returning to the old, failed Iran deal, can stop him from throwing open our southern border, will prevent him from packing the court.
Now imagine a government controlled by your nemeses — Nancy Pelosi in the House, Chuck Schumer in the Senate, Joe Biden in the White House. How high will taxes go? How many of your initiatives will be strangled? And, on a personal note, do you think they won’t spend the next four years torturing you with baseless hearings and investigations?</blockquote>

The New York Post is the second major newspaper that backed Trump&#8217;s re-election that has also called on him to accept the election results. The Wall Street Journal&#8217;s Editorial Board called on Trump to accept the election results after the Electoral College voted and gave Democrat Joe Biden the number of electors needed to secure victory.
&#8220;There’s no predicting how Mr. Trump will behave. He rarely takes our advice—we said in January 2017 that he should fire James Comey upon taking office—and perhaps he will continue his &#8216;stolen&#8217; election claims past Jan. 20. Perhaps he can’t admit to himself that he lost. Perhaps he hopes to nurture resentment to run again in 2024,&#8221; The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/trumps-challenge-is-over-11607898467?mod=opinion_lead_pos1">wrote</a> on Dec. 13.
&#8220;But bitterness as a political strategy rarely wears well. If Republicans lose the Georgia Senate runoffs on Jan. 5, Mr. Trump will deserve much of the blame. If election protests turn to violence in the streets, as they did on the weekend in Washington, he will be blamed whether he deserves it or not. Mrs. Clinton’s example of still claiming she was cheated, four years later, hasn’t enhanced her reputation.&#8221;

WASHINGTON, DC – OCTOBER 30: President Donald Trump talks to me

The New York Post Editorial Board Hits Trump With Article, Newspaper Cover

Donald Trump

A cybersecurity expert has reportedly authenticated a key email at the center of the growing controversy surrounding a laptop that allegedly belongs to the son of Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden.
The New York Post broke the story two weeks ago when they reported on emails that were found on the laptop that allegedly belong to Hunter Biden.
The Post reported:
<blockquote>Hunter Biden introduced his father, then-Vice President Joe Biden, to a top executive at a Ukrainian energy firm less than a year before the elder Biden pressured government officials in Ukraine into firing a prosecutor who was investigating the company, according to emails obtained by The Post. &#8230;
“Dear Hunter, thank you for inviting me to DC and giving an opportunity to meet your father and spent [sic] some time together. It’s realty [sic] an honor and pleasure,” the email reads.
An earlier email from May 2014 also shows Pozharskyi, reportedly Burisma’s No. 3 exec, asking Hunter for “advice on how you could use your influence” on the company’s behalf.</blockquote>
The Daily Caller News Foundation provided a copy of the email and its metadata to Robert Graham, the founder of the cybersecurity firm Errata Security, who confirmed that the email is real.
&#8220;Graham, who has been cited as a cybersecurity expert in The Washington Post, the Associated Press, Wired, Engadget and other news and technology outlets, told the DCNF that he used a cryptographic signature found in the email’s metadata to validate that Vadym Pozharsky, an advisor to Burisma’s board of directors, emailed Hunter Biden on April 17, 2015,&#8221; the DCNF <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2020/10/29/cybersecurity-expert-authenticates-hunter-biden-burisma-email/">reported</a>. &#8220;Graham used the DKIM signature within the email to verify with a private key on Google’s servers that the sender, recipient, subject, date and body of the message that the DCNF obtained from Giuliani were unchanged from when the email was originally sent in April 2015.&#8221;
The controversy widened when former Hunter Biden business partner Tony Bobulinski came forward and gave the following <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hunter-bidens-alleged-business-partner-turned-whistleblower-im-turning-everything-over-to-fbi-senate">statement</a>:
<blockquote>I’m making this statement to set the record straight about the involvement of the Biden family, Vice President Biden, his brother Jim Biden, and his son Hunter Biden in dealings with the Chinese.
I have heard Joe Biden say that he’s never discussed business with Hunter. That is false. I have firsthand knowledge about this because I directly dealt with the Biden family, including Joe Biden. I have also heard that Vice President Biden said on Tuesday that Senator Ron Johnson, the chair of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, should be ashamed for suggesting that Biden family sought to profit from their name.
Well, here are the facts I know, and everything I’m saying is corroborated by emails, WhatsApp chats, agreements, documents, and other evidence, and the American people can judge for themselves. I brought, I guess, for record, three phones that spanned the years 2015 through 2018. These phones have never been held by anybody else besides myself. I was told this past Sunday by somebody who was also involved in this matter that if I went public this information it would bury all of us man, the Bidens included. I have no wish to bury anyone. I’ve never been political; the few contributions I’ve made have been to Democrats. But what I am is a patriot and a veteran. To protect my family name and my business reputation, I need to ensure that the true facts are out there.
In late 2015, I was approached by James Gilliar, whom I had known for many years, about joining him in a deal which he said would involve the Chinese state-owned enterprise CFC China Energy and what he called one of the most prominent families in the United States. I was informed first by Gilliar and then by Hunter Biden and by Rob Walker, who was working with the Bidens, that the Bidens wanted to form a new entity with CFC, which was to invest in infrastructure, real estate, and technology in the U.S. and around the world, and the entity would initially be capitalized with 10 million dollars, and then grow to billions of dollars of investment capital.
After months of discussion, I agreed to Gilliard and Hunter Biden’s request to become CEO of the entity to be called Sinohawk. Sino representing the Chinese side, hawk representing Hunter Biden’s brother Beau’s favorite animal. And between February and May 2017, we exchanged numerous emails, documents, and WhatsApp messages concerning Sinohawk and its potential business. On May 2, 2017, the night before Joe Biden was to appear at the Milken conference, I was introduced to Joe Biden by Jim Biden and Hunter Biden.
At my approximately hour-long meeting with Joe that night, we discussed the Bidens’ history, the Bidens’ family business plans with the Chinese, with which he was plainly familiar at least at a high level. After that meeting, I had numerous communications with Hunter, Walker, Gilliar, and Jim Biden regarding the allocation of the equity ownership of Sinohawk. On May 13, 2017, I received an email concerning allocation of equity, which says, ’10 percent held by H for the big guy.’ In that email there’s no question that H stands for Hunter, ‘big guy’ for his father, Joe Biden, and ‘Jim’ for Jim Biden. In fact, Hunter often referred to his father as the ‘big guy’ or ‘my chairman’.
On numerous occasions, it was made clear to me that Joe Biden’s involvement was not to be mentioned in writing, but only face to face. In fact, I was advised by Gilliar and Walker that Hunter and Jim Biden were paranoid about keeping Joe Biden’s involvement secret. I also had a disagreement with Hunter about the funds CFC was contributing to Sinohawk. Hunter wanted 5 million of those funds to go to himself and his family, so he wanted the funds wired directly to an entity affiliated with him. I objected because that was contrary to our written agreements concerning Sinohawk. He said referring to the chairman, his father, that CFC was really investing in the Biden family, that he held the trump card, and that he was the one putting his family legacy on the line. He also said to me on May 17, 2017, that CFC wanted to be my partner, to be partner[ed] with the Bidens.
During these negotiations, I repeated to Hunter and others that Sinohawk could not be Hunter’s personal piggy bank and I demanded that proper corporate governance procedures be implemented for capital distributions. Hunter became very upset with me. CFC through July 2017 was assuring me the funds would be transferred to Sinohawk, but they were never sent to our company. Instead, I found out from Senator Johnson’s September report that the 5 million dollars was sent in August 2017 to entities affiliated with Hunter.
Tomorrow I will be meeting with the Senate committee members concerning this matter, and I will be providing to the FBI the devices which contain the evidence corroborating what I have said.</blockquote>
