Hunter Bidens perverterade crack-kokain-sextape-email och dess politiska konsekvenser

The standard agreement of the shop states “[e]quipment left with the Mac Shop after 90 days of notification of completed service will be treated as abandoned and you agree to hold the Mac Shop harmless for any damage or loss of property.”

Notably, Biden does not deny that he signed that agreement, but he refuses to say that he did. Instead, he claims that the provision is void under a Delaware law setting a period of a year to obtain lawful ownership over abandoned property. 25 Del. C. § 4001. However, the provision states that a person loses ownership claims if he “failed to otherwise assert or declare the ownership rights to the tangible personal property for a period of 1 year.”

The filing focuses on Issac disclosing the contents before the year period but ignores that Biden has not claimed ownership for multiple years. However, the counterclaim maintains that Issac did not even wait the 90 days to access and share some of the material.

It is a curious line of argument for a court, which is faced with an individual who continues to question his ownership of the computer while asserting ownership rights. He also questions whether Issac was premature to claim the property when he still equivocates over whether this is his property over two years after the disclosures.

If Hunter Biden abandoned this property, it is hard to see how he maintains privacy interests in files that he never sought to protect and still does not fully admit are his.

He also raises the common law torts of disclosure of embarrassing private facts. However, that tort has an exception for newsworthiness:

The question is whether this conflicted set of claims is “well below” the tolerance level of the federal court.

The claim that the $3 million, which was sent to Biden associate Rob Walker on March 1, 2017, represented “seed funds” was scoffed at by Tony Bobulinski, the former partner in the venture turned whistleblower.

“It’s absolutely laughable,” Bobulinski told me Friday.

“That money wasn’t seed funds for future work. It was part of the payment for work the Bidens did for the Chinese in 2015 and 2016.”

Indeed, Bobulinski previously said publicly — and told the FBI — that he witnessed Hunter screaming at the Chinese official involved in the joint venture that the Biden family was owed $20 million for work it did for those two years.

The timing distinction is significant because Joe Biden was still vice president in 2015 and 2016.

Also, Bobulinski says he met with Joe Biden in May of 2017, just months after Joe left the White House, and Biden knew all about the China deal.

It was in that same month that another partner wrote an email saying 10% of the deal was going to the “big guy,” identified by Bobulinski as the current president.
