so the techs at the FBI have no way of knowing if stuff was planted from the outside. or if the hard drive had been swapped

Maybe an investigation would reveal what actually happened, and what’s made up.

Maybe but I don't know the legality or morality of going after a private citizen??????? I guess if he is charged with tax evasion but given that he paid his back taxes it would be extremely rare for him to be charged (according to what I read). And then I don't think something like tax evasion would allow the gov. to look into other things not related?????again I don't know.

I have absolutely no clue of the legality of going after a private citizen, but there are democrats on that committee who will raise that if it's an issue, right?

I'm a lot less concerned about the Bidens profiting off his influence (I assume they all do that these days, Republicans too), as I am with the appearance that some in the FBI felt like their job was to serve as operatives of the Biden campaign while I was paying them. They had the laptop in their possession, they had to know there was zero evidence it wasn't legit. And the media s#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g it all up like a Hoover Deluxe model. That's not why we have a media with constitutional protections. If you were reporting on a story you knew was legit, can you imagine how it would feel to be censored on Facebook and Twitter, and to have 95% of the media saying you were peddling Russian disinformation? It's not a great situation.

I have no reason to believe it changed the outcome of the election, but it had to have helped.
