This is Garrison Hardie with your CrossPolitic Daily News Brief for Friday, October 21st, 2022. Happy Friday everyone… 
 
Since it’s Friday, I thought we’d go ahead and kick things off with a “On this day in history!” On this day in history, October 21st:

Hunter Biden’s Laptop Documents At Least 459 Legal Violations, Watchdog Group Says
A year-long exploration of Hunter Biden’s laptop has yielded a 630-page report that its authors say document 459 violations of state and federal laws and regulations by President Joe Biden’s son and his business partners.
 
Marco Polo, a nonprofit formed by a one-time aide to former President Trump to enable a team  to take a deep dive into the laptop that the  crack-addled Biden left at a Delaware repair store, claims the report is a road map for local, state, or federal prosecutors to pursue charges. The group also sent its report to each member of Congress.
 
The timing of the report’s release, coming two weeks before the midterm elections, has a certain symmetry to the laptop’s initial introduction to the public. In 2020, days before the election, the New York Post published news of the laptop’s existence, as well as bombshells from it, but social media suppressed the story after the FBI had warned companies of so-called misinformation.
 
This time around, the timing is similar, but other factors are reversed. Legacy outlets have acknowledged that the laptop’s files are authentic, Twitter founder Jack Dorsey admitted that censoring the laptop was a mistake, and the social media platform is being sold to free-speech advocate Elon Musk.
 
The report, which reviewed the laptop’s emails, videos, calendar items, photographs, phone records, financial documents and more, but also provided context and explanation, serves as a “Rosetta Stone of white- and blue-collar crime under the patina of ‘the Delaware Way,’”
