Finally a headline that doesn’t casually assert the existence of the “Hunter Biden laptop” that Rudy, his blind repair shop buddy, or the FSB conjured out of thin air as a poor explanation for where the stolen data came from.
Isn’t the suing of Rudy for hacking the laptop not an admittance of it’s existence? Plus we all know the videos are there, it’s easy to believe there would be more hidden on the laptop.
No; in fact it’s explicitly not that.
- Defendants themselves admit that their purported possession of a “laptop” is in fact not a “laptop” at all. It is, according to their own public statements, an “external drive” that Defendants were told contained hundreds of gigabytes of Plaintiff’s personal data. At least some of the data that Defendants obtained, copied, and proceeded to hack into and tamper with belongs to Plaintiff.[1] But Plaintiff’s data was manipulated, altered and damaged before it was copied and sent to Defendants; and Defendants’ illegal hacking and tampering has involved further alterations and damage to the data to a degree that is presently unknown to Plaintiff.
[1] This is not an admission by Plaintiff that John Paul Mac Isaac (or others) in fact possessed any particular laptop containing electronically stored data belonging to Plaintiff. Rather, Plaintiff simply acknowledges that at some point, Mac Isaac obtained electronically stored data, some of which belonged to Plaintiff.
Occam’s Razor with all of the evidence we have suggests that if whoever hacked Hunter Biden’s iCloud account bothered actually putting the data on a laptop it wasn’t a laptop that Hunter Biden ever owned and the whole “Hunter Biden’s laptop left in a repair shop in Delaware” story was cover for the actual source of the data.
It’s an admission that revenge porn pictures are real but that doesn’t mean they came from any particular device.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
In the lawsuit filed in federal court in California, Hunter Biden accuses Giuliani and Robert Costello of spending years “hacking into, tampering with, manipulating, copying, disseminating, and generally obsessing over data that they were given that was taken or stolen from” his devices.
“Defendants’ statements suggest that their unlawful hacking activities are ongoing today and that, unless stopped, will continue into the future, thereby necessitating this action.”
Earlier this month, Hunter Biden brought a similar civil suit against former Trump White House aide Garrett Ziegler, claiming that since leaving his White House post, Ziegler “has devoted most of his waking time and energy” on the effort to access devices that purportedly belonged to Hunter Biden.
And last week, Hunter Biden sued the Internal Revenue Service, alleging its agents illegally released his tax information and that the agency failed to protect his private records.
According to the lawsuit, in a video of the podcast, Giuliani “held up a laptop computer on camera and announced: ‘This belongs to Hunter Biden.’”
The suit accuses Giuliani and Costello of breaking both federal and California state computer privacy laws and asks for a jury trial in the matter.

I’m losing track of all these stupid lawsuits. Probably because I don’t give ashit. This shouldn’t be news.
I mean, if they did try to hack his devices in a way that we would normally consider hacking, I feel like that’d be news, but I agree the whole situation is stupid
