Former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani recently claimed in an interview that multiple conservative media outlets suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop story.
During Newsmax’s Saturday Report, Giuliani said that former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo under the Trump administration, Fox News’ Sean Hannity, and Just the News’ John Solomon were involved in burying the story on Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden.
“I had this whole thing – let’s say half of it; certainly enough to prosecute — in 2019,” Giuliani said on the Saturday Report, adding that he shared the information about Hunter’s laptop to Hannity, Solomon, and Pompeo, “who also buried it.” Giuliani claimed that former Attorney General Bill Barr suppressed the story in January 2020, noting that he did not even know Barr had a hard drive of Hunter’s laptop in 2019.
“I’ve been living with this for 3.5 years when I first put out the information about Biden’s bribery in Ukraine, and I lived through that,” Giuliani said. “I got up every morning from the first moment I got that hard drive, saying to myself, ‘How can I get this to my fellow citizens? Because, you just read a just a little bit of that, you realize the candidate of the Democratic Party was a lifelong criminal, and I mean, there are 50-60 crimes outlined there and I’m not saying that lightly.”
The former New York City mayor said Biden is “similar to the head of an organized crime family.”
“He took millions of dollars in bribes, millions. This is the biggest corruption case that I can find in the history of this country, and it was covered up by the major part of the media in this country, and they knew it,” Giuliani added.
Giuliani’s revelation comes as the infamous Twitter Files exposed how the Big Tech giant also took part in censoring the Hunter laptop story.
Independent journalist Matt Taibbi, at the behest of Twitter CEO Elon Musk, released internal files about how the company dealt with censorship, according to RSBN. Among the findings, Taibbi showed how Twitter actively suppressed the New York Post’s story on Hunter’s laptop.
“Twitter took extraordinary steps to suppress the story, removing links and posting warnings that it may be ‘unsafe.’ They even blocked its transmission via direct message, a tool hitherto reserved for extreme cases, e.g. child pornography,” Taibbi wrote.
President Donald Trump has also been vocal about Big Tech’s attempt to suppress the story while also slamming the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) double standards when it came to investigating crimes, saying, “despite proven high crimes and treason, and just plain common theft, all pointed out in the Laptop from Hell (and elsewhere), they never Raided or Broke Into the house of Hunter Biden,” RSBN reported.
“So they [rifled] through the living quarters of my 16 year old son, Barron, and the loved and respected former First Lady of the United States, Melania, but, despite proven high crimes and treason, and just plain common theft, all pointed out in the Laptop from Hell (and elsewhere), they never Raided or Broke Into the house of Hunter Biden or, perhaps even more importantly, the house of Joe Biden – A treasure trove!” the president wrote on Truth Social following the FBI’s raid of his Mar-a-Lago home.
