Computer repairman who received Hunter Biden's laptop sues CNN, Politico, and the Daily Beast

Dated: May 5, 2022 by Sharyl Attkisson 1 Comment

      

The following is an excerpt from Just The News.

The Delaware repairman who says he was the first to give the contents of Hunter Biden's laptop to the FBI has filed a multimillion-dollar defamation lawsuit against several news outlets and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) alleging they falsely accused him of disseminating Russian disinformation.

The suit was filed Tuesday in a circuit court in Montgomery County, Md., by plaintiff John Paul Mac Isaac, the former owner of the electronic repair shop where the laptop was purportedly dropped off for repairs.

"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," he told The New York Post, which first reported about the laptop and its hard drive that includes information about Hunter Biden's overseas business dealings, in part while his father, President Joe Biden, was vice president.

Mac Issac says he's fighting back after being targeted for harassment by Big Tech, the mainstream media and various supporters of the Biden family for about two years. 

The media outlets named in the suit are CNN, Politico and The Daily Beast. 

The 45-year-old, who lost his business in the wake of the scandal, became the legal owner of the laptop after Hunter Biden allegedly dropped it off at his store in April 2019 and never returned for it.

Mac Isaac says he gave a copy of the laptop's hard drive to the FBI in December 2019 and eight months later informed then-President Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani of its existence.

Weeks prior to the 2020 presidential election, when the Post ran the story about the laptop and was subsequently kicked off Twitter and stifled on Facebook, 51 former intelligence officials said they believed the laptop was Russian disinformation.

The letter, signed by the officials, was initially published in Politico.

    For the benefit of the country, I hope he wins and wins big. I doubt seriously the trial, if it goes to trial, will be televised or reported by any of the other corporate news organizations because they also disseminate disinformation. That the high level echelons of the FBI, CIA, DOJ, and Executive Branch participated in killing this critical story should ring alarm bells to any freedom loving person, citizen or not.
