If you can sit through a disgraceful interview (I dont watch Fox...I saw a clip of this interview elsewhere) but this is Joe Bidens media spokesperson admitting that the Hunter Biden emails are authentic (skip to 2:40) to minimise watching two people shouting over each other.

This interview is a load of nonsense T5150. I reckon the most important part of it, from the interviewer's perspective, is the last line where he gets to say that the Biden campaign has been given equal airtime. He spends the rest of the interview talking over the top of that woman to make sure that nothing she says can have any cut through.
At the 2.40 mark he asks, "Can anyone prove that these emails are inauthentic?" to which she responds that no one can.
So that's it? Because no one can prove that they are false they must be real? The accusers don't have to prove that the documents they are putting forward are genuine, it's the accused that has to prove that they're false.
Have another listen to that interview ( I know it's torture) I'm sure you will agree that Biden's spokesperson does NOT say that the emails are authentic.
Frankly I can't understand why anyone would watch and believe the tripe that Fox serves up.
Its a disgraceful "interview" but her words are "Yes that is fair, I dont think anyone is saying they are inauthentic."
She is saying it response to the "interviewer" say no one has directly said they are inauthentic.
Really? Noone? not even Hunter or Joe Biden?
She has specifically said that the emails are real. This is the whole point. If they are not real, Hunter or Joe just come out and say "They are not real, they are not my emails, that is not my hard drive.". Her response would be, "No Joe/Hunter have already categorically stated that the emails are not real, its not his laptop". Instead she said "No one is saying they are not authentic".
Maybe they feel they don’t have to cos the story does not have enough legs.
Then they are crazy. The only reason the story has legs is because they havent cut the legs off by saying "the emails are fake, not my laptop". Why wouldnt you crush it like that?
I have been sceptical of the story from day 1 because the whole "I dropped of my incriminating laptop full of incriminating emails, documetns and photos...then forgot it" story is hard to believe, but I am starting to believe there may be truth to it based on Bidens refusal to directly refute it, the supposed receipt signed by Hunter, the supposed email from Hunter and his legals asking for it back and the supposed corroboration by others on the email trail.
GNR, if it was proven that these emails are real, do you think its an important story/issue?
I suspect that the Biden camp may have decided not to give the story any oxygen.
It only seems to be the Murdoch press running it with it. Everyone else appears to be giving it a pretty wide berth. It could be that the entire USA press corp (ex Murdoch) are actively working to support Biden against Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon but I think the more likely explanation is that they all think the story is a bit dodgy
My take on the Biden spokesperson was that she responded to the assertion, "Nobody has proved that these emails are inauthentic" as "Yes that's fair", as meaning that his statement is a true one. After that I can't hear what else she was trying to say because he just starts talking over the top of her again.
As regards Hunter Biden's silence, isn't he in rehab at the moment?
After she says "Yes thats fair" she definitely and clearly says "I dont think anyone is ***saying*** they are inauthentic." Nothing about proving, simple, noone is saying these emails are inauthentic. Cold hard fact that she said that and that no one from the Biden camp has said they are inauthentic.
Even if FG is correct (I dont think he is) in that she says "or not" next, the answer is....why not? If incriminating emails, documents and photos of me were distributed and they were not real or not mine, I would be screaming it from the rooftops that it wasnt mine. I cant believe people are suggesting something else.
With regards to "only Murdoch media are covering it, no one else", its worse than that. EVERY other media outlet, in the absence of a rebuttal from the Bidens, immediately started running stories that it was Russian disinformation, of course prompting the DNI to come out and say that to date, its not.
