Gary Shapley's lawyer (who only lawyered up after DOJ FINALLY made him turn over the email he had been stalling on for months) says that Hunter Biden should not have the same recourse as Trump's lawyers gave to the Russians who set Hunter up in the first place.
Remember: Toensing and DiGenova were promising access to Bill Barr and the exchange for that was ... the investigation into Hunter Biden.
@tristanleavitt If you somehow missed that your own client provided PROOF that no one had validated the laptop for 10 months after they got it, then you probably have no business asking abt import of Russia.
@tristanleavitt You ALSO probably should not ignore that the same AG who took a meeting with Dmitry Firtash's lawyers which was PART of the laptop caper also set up this investigation in the first place.

According to Politico, bad blood between NYT and Biden go back to Ken Vogel sniffing dick pics on behalf of whoever it is he is a mouthpiece for.
I'd say Biden has a point -- though unclear why NYT is treated any worse than WaPo, whose journos have seeded two devastating (still uncorrected) false claims abt Hunter Biden.
Reminder that @peterbakernyt was part of a NYT team that thought helping Trump obstruct the Mueller investigation was more newsworthy than reporting that Trump spoke to Vladimir Putin alone before writing a false statement about the June 9, 2016 meeting that parroted Putin propaganda.
@peterbakernyt Anon NYT journo says that AG will demand the NYT relentlessly focus on Biden's age unless and until the nepotistic brat and presumed transphobe activist gets an interview with Biden personally.
FWIW, my **hypothesis** is that Person 16 -- the stolen docs witness who said a lot of candid things -- is Eric Herschmann, bc Herschmann says a lot of candid things, like that other lawyers are morons.
Building off that Person 5 would be Ephsteyn, Person 18 Corcoran, Person 49 Susie Wiles. A redacted mention of Bannon in there -- it's not a witness tho.
All hypotheses, mind you.
Note that Person 16 believes all a woman has to do to get Trump's attention is to look like Person 30.
