Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles. Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
- No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.
That's all the rules!

Who would ever take their computer to John Paul Mac Isaac's repair shop after this? The shop had no business looking at the owners data, even if it was abandoned. If it was left there the drive should have been destroyed. It is not ethical what this computer repair guy did and I am sure it was illegal. Can you image dropping off you laptop and having the repair guy release nude pictures of you to the public.
And I don't see how anything on the laptop NOW can be authenticated to be real. Sure I believe Hunter is a drug user and has sex with women-I didn't need the laptop to believe that. But since a lot of people had access to this laptop, people who'd want to hurt his family politically, they could have tampered with it.
Everyone who has released pornography of Hunter Biden are wrong and sure broke the law.
I'm guessing this did little to nothing to his business. You're vastly overestimating the amount of people who are familiar with this story, the fraction of those people aware of this person, and the fraction of those people who would also be customers of this store.
Worked, briefly, in my youth for a shitty repair shop.
The owner would personally "help" any passable looking lady just to copy the drive and look for nudes. Or he was very gleeful to find video.
This is the same guy who "offices" out if a strip club.
I was too young and dumb to do anything but quit, and that was due to him not paying me more than any moral outrage. Can't eat moral outrage, however justified.
