Hunter Biden Laptop Controversy
In late 2020, a controversy emerged involving data from a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden that was abandoned at a Delaware computer shop. The data was subsequently shared with the FBI, Republican operatives, and later the press. Forensic analysis authenticated some of the data on the laptop, including one of two key emails used by the ''New York Post'' in their initial reporting. No evidence of illegality by Joe Biden has been shown from the laptop contents. Three weeks before the 2020 United States presidential election, the ''New York Post'' published a story presenting emails from the laptop and stating that they showed corruption by Joe Biden. Incumbent president and presidential candidate Donald Trump tried to turn the story into an October surprise to hurt Joe Biden's campaign, with Trump asserting the false conspiracy theory that Joe Biden had acted corruptly regarding Ukraine while in office. PolitiFact wrote in June 2021 that, while "over time, there has been less ...
