Questions the media need to start asking about Hunter Biden and his dad

The New York Times and Washington Post have suddenly decided the Hunter laptop and the Biden family business it reveals are real news after all.

Sure, the mainstream media is now reporting on the Hunter Biden case. But will they ask President Biden the hard questions they would undoubtedly ask if a Republican were in the White House?

But Biden was the Democrat in the race. The media-Democrat complex, far from haranguing him until he answered such questions, was sure to help him deflect. In fact, an establishment-friendly assortment of former intelligence officials baselessly floated the notion that damning data on a computer that patently belonged to Hunter might be Russian disinformation. The press dutifully ran with it.
