Maher, who has increasingly been calling out the Left for hypocrisy, told liberal actor and director Rob Reiner that not only was the laptop the genuine article, but it showed that the soon-to-be president’s son was selling influence to foreign governments. The mainstream press took part in a plot to hide the story from the public, he said.
“Is it okay to have a conspiracy to get rid of Trump?” Maher said. “They were talking about Hunter Biden’s laptop, which was a story and now all the mainstream press has finally admitted it was a real story. It was a real laptop.”
Outlets like The Washington Post and CNN initially dismissed the story as Russian disinformation only to acknowledge the laptop’s authenticity well after the election. The New York Post, which broke the story, was vilified and locked off of Twitter, and Facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg admitted this week that his company suppressed the story at the behest of the FBI.
Zuckerberg’s revelation to podcast king Joe Rogan follow Wisconsin Republican Sen. Ron Johnson telling DOJ officials multiple FBI whistleblowers have come forward to say bureau brass barred them from investigating the laptop, which the FBI had had for nearly a year before the election.
“And we know for a fact that that’s what they did?” Reiner shot back.
“Of course!” Maher said. “You don’t follow this?”
“I don’t know what they did,” Reiner replied.
“I know because you only watch MSNBC,” Maher said.
