That's a very convenient excuse for blocking anything you want unt it is irrelevant. I also like how, now that the provenance of the laptop is not doubted, and hacking and Russia were not involved, people say "it doesn't matter, there was nothing incriminating on the laptop anyway". What a strange OP for Russia to pull off, you'd think they sold forge something juicy if it was their plan.

The provenance of the laptop and it’s contents, are doubted. That’s the whole point of all of this.

Seriously, Rudy Giuliani spent most of 2020 in Ukraine trying to dig up dirt on Biden. He would send his findings to the DoJ, and they were so out there that Barr had to set up a to quarantine the noise he was generating.

Then all of a sudden in a classic October surprise, a blind computer repairman finds out what he is in possession of, and instead of calling the FBI he calls none other than Rudy Giuliani.

And wouldn’t you know, what he has found is exactly the kind of bullshit Giuliani had been trying to dredge up in Ukraine for a year but couldn’t get past the DoJ.

So no, the provenance of this thing is in deep question.
