This seems pretty basic to be what Trump was talking about. Maybe its just because The post reported all this yesterday .

Naming the guy is only part of it. Trump has the guy as his personal guest at the debate tonight.

THAT is a big frickin deal.

Finally figured out that no amount of promises of political favor is going to prevent the massive losses incurred by primary business that they service and inform when the socialists jack capital gains and come after 401k?

They can't verify it.

Except hunters lawyer asked for it back.
And two former business partners are on the record confirming it.
And the FBI said it isn't disinformation.
And the campaign won't deny it.
And there are photos and video and a signed invoice.


But other than that, CNN can't verify it.

Genuinely interested to get your take. Are you in the camp that prefers the media ignore it and just go with "Russian disinformation" line, and if so, do you think that allows the right to carry the entire narrative?

There are political columnists at the NYT tweeting that they don't understand the story. That's leaving a pretty large hole that is currently being filled with whatever the Trump team and right wing media wants.

Dont care much about who its by. But I completely discount any Opinion column. Even if its “helpful” to my POV.

You just cant get any traction with them. Even if they’re correct.

I'm confused- for 3+ years they ran with stories that were not only "unverified", but that they themselves planted in other news outlets to then report on. I wonder why their so careful now??

Opinion piece...just like every thing put out by the MSM in the last 8 or so years. Are you under the impression we ever get any articles that are more fact than opinion and aren't slanted?

At this hour many news consumers remain trapped behind the Silicon Curtain. Nevertheless word continues to spread about the Biden family business, thanks to an underground publication founded by Alexander Hamilton in 1801. The latest story from the New York Post, which shares common ownership with the Journal, comes courtesy of veteran columnist Michael Goodwin.

It doesn't really matter to me what the media decides to do on this. I guess in an ideal world, they would only report what they have independently verified.

Agreed, it should be classified as "Analysis", right?

Yall can get mad if you want.


But I can’t send an opinion column to someone anti trump and get them to take it seriously. Just like I don’t bother to read any if the opinion pieces they send me.

Thats just facts. I can agree with it, it can be factually and contextually correct but it simply won’t move the needle with people who are already burrying their head in the sand on this story.

It would be infinitely more persuasive if it wasn’t under the opinion column. Any of the people im working on to bring them around will flatly dismiss this as an opinion piece with no weight. The same I did to their McRaven bullshite they sent me.
