Thursday thread: GOP's Hunter Biden laptop investigation backfires

Turns out it was Trump, as president, who pressured Twitter to censor tweets. Hunter Biden's lawyers, meanwhile, have asked Bannon, Giuliani, Stone to "preserve documents." Where is all of this going?

In a ridiculous hearing yesterday in which Republicans launched an investigation of Hunter Biden’s laptop and Twitter supposedly “censoring” information about it, the GOP tried — and failed — to prove that the FBI had a hand in getting Twitter to take down tweets.

The Biden campaign — not a government entity — did urge against allowing Hunter Biden’s dick pics to be posted (something Twitter agreed was not appropriate), not the FBI. However, it turned out — as brilliantly drawn out by Congressman Gerry Connolly — that it was Donald Trump, as president, who pressured Twitter to take down tweets — specifically one by model Chrissy Teigen, who called him a “pussy ass bitch.”
