When a computer repairman revealed Hunter Biden’s laptop, which incriminates him and Papa Joe in all sorts of illegal shit, the liberal media and democrats slammed it as Russian disinformation only to acknowledged its legitimacy when it was less politically damaging. In the second best news this week, that repairman is suing several outlets like CNN as well as democrat Adam Schiff for defamation of character.
The New York Post reports:
The Delaware computer repairman who blew the whistle on Hunter Biden’s laptop filed a multimillion-dollar defamation suit Tuesday against Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff, CNN, the Daily Beast and Politico, saying they falsely accused him of peddling Russian disinformation.
The former shop owner, John Paul Mac Isaac, decided to fight back after losing his business and being harassed for 18 months by Big Tech, the media and Delaware locals in President Biden’s home state.
“After fighting to reveal the truth, all I want now is for the rest of the country to know that there was a collective and orchestrated effort by social and mainstream media to block a real story with real consequences for the nation. This was collusion led by 51 former pillars in the intelligence community and backed by words and actions of a politically motivated DOJ and FBI. I want this lawsuit to reveal that collusion and more importantly, who gave the marching orders,” said Mac Isaac.
Mac Isaac became the legal owner of the laptop when a cracked up Hunter Biden abandoned it at his computer repair shop. He turned the contents of the hard drive over to the FBI and when 8 months went by with no word from them, he gave it to Donald Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani, who in turn released it to The NY Post. You know the story from there.
When The Post’s first story broke in October 2020 — just three weeks before the presidential election — Twitter and Facebook moved to censor it. Then Schiff (D-Calif.) and 51 former intelligence officials labeled the laptop Russian disinformation.
In the aftermath, Mac Isaac says, his business and reputation were ruined.
“Twitter initially labeled my action hacking, so for the first day after my information was leaked, I was bombarded with hate mail and death threats revolving around the idea that I was a hacker, a thief and a criminal,” said Mac Isaac.
And it really looks like Mac Isaac has a solid case:
In the suit, which was filed in Montgomery County, Md., Mac Isaac claims Schiff defamed him in an interview on CNN two days after The Post began publishing revelations from the laptop.
In the interview with Wolf Blitzer, Schiff told the CNN host — without citing evidence — that he believed “the Kremlin” was behind a smear of Joe and Hunter Biden.
“Well, we know that this whole smear on Joe Biden comes from the Kremlin. That’s been clear for well over a year now that they’ve been pushing this false narrative about the vice president and his son,” Schiff told Blitzer, according to the suit.
The suit claims CNN knowingly broadcast the “false and defamatory story” that the laptop was linked to a Russian disinformation campaign, causing Mac Isaac significant damage, including the closing of his repair shop.
Similarly, Mac Isaac accuses the Daily Beast and Politico of peddling disinformation about the laptop in two articles published on both sites.
The Daily Beast claimed the laptop was “purloined” — which Mac Isaac says alleges that he stole the computer — in an article headlined “FBI Examining Hunter’s Laptop as Foreign Op, Contradicting Trump’s Intel Czar,” the suit states.
And in an infamous story on Politico, the website reported dozens of former intel officials believed the laptop to be “Russian disinfo.”
“The article was written by journalist Natasha Bertrand, who seemingly has a history of transforming speculation into fact in the stories upon which she reports,” the suit states.
Mac Isaac is seeking $1 million in compensatory images as well as punitive damages that will be determined in the trail. You can bet the punitive damages will be high on this one.
The liberal media and Schiff knowingly pushed bullshit to protect Joe Biden and it would be nice if there was actually a price for doing that. I sincerely hope this guy’s lawsuit is successful.
