(Thanks to Descript for this fantastic AI ep description)The newest ABSURD! discusses Hunter Biden's laptop controversy leading up to the 2020 U.S. presidential election. It details how, in October 2020, more than 50 former intelligence officials claimed the laptop story was a Russian disinformation operation. The story was originally published by the New York Post, asserting links between Joe Biden and his son Hunter's business dealings. Following the release, major media outlets and tech platforms like Twitter and Facebook restricted the story's dissemination, citing concerns of hacked materials and disinformation. Despite these claims, subsequent reports and investigations affirmed the authenticity of the laptop contents. The script argues that the coordinated suppression and dismissal of the story manipulated the American people, vilifying Trump and shielding Joe Biden. It further critiques the involved intelligence officials and media outlets for their roles in spreading false narratives and not owning up to their errors.https://www.youtube.com/@Jffeeney3rd@theccnetwork1 on FB & X!Download the PrizePicks app today and use code CCN and get $50 instantly when you play $5!
