3 Hunter Biden "denials" that never happened by The Honorable Professor Turley Jonathan Turley: Hunter Biden's laptop and the Facebook, Twitter censorship scandal – watch these 3 things Original Article <snip> If they are fabricated, there were three barks that we would have expected within hours of the release. Bark 1: This was not Hunter Biden’s computer The most obvious response would be that this is not the computer of Hunter Biden. After all, the computer store owner John Paul Mac Isaac who is legally blind said that he could not recognize the person who dropped off the laptop. However, Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani has now stated, as a fact, that “the laptop was left by Hunter Biden, in an inebriated, heavily inebriated state with the merchant.” That does not purport with what Isaac said. However, there remains the question of a laptop with a “Beau Biden Foundation” sticker on it with highly incriminating files. Someone in the campaign must have called Hunter Biden and he had to have told them whether or not it was his laptop. The response on ownership has been crickets for days. Bark 2: These were not Hunter Biden’s photos or emails Even if the campaign cannot deny that the computer was Hunter Biden’s, it could deny that these incriminating pictures and emails were his. Again, crickets. Note that if these are fabricated emails or pictures, this would be a serious federal crime and the basis for legal action. The Biden camp has no shortage of lawyers. Indeed, they have been signing up lawyers in droves in preparation for election challenges. Yet, there is not a single allegation of fraud or fabrication after days of a brewing scandal. Bark 3: This is defamation Perhaps this bark is the most telling. If these emails or pictures are fabricated, it is a clear case of defamation and other tort actions. It would seem that one of the hundreds of lawyers currently lined up by the Biden campaign would fire off an "intent to sue" letter. Truth is a defense to defamation, so the letter might start with the earlier bark and deny that this was Hunter Biden’s computer and these were Hunter Biden’s file. One big difference between the legal and political worlds is that in the latter there is no protection for the right to remain silent. In politics, scandals can be managed but not silently. Instead of these obvious barks, the public heard something closer to a whimper: that the campaign could not find any notation on Vice President Biden's official schedule that he met with a Ukrainian figure connected to the payments to his son Hunter Biden. <more at link>
