Miranda Devine: Habitual liar Hunter Biden used Tucker Carlsons platform to lie some more about his laptop from hell
For Hunter and Joe Biden, lying becomes so habitual they eventually lose grip on reality.Joe had power so people were inclined to believe his fabrications.

The laptop that [Mac Isaac] eventually turns over . . .to the FBI, the thing that [he] claims that he got off of a device was a hard drive . . .
What he finds through this guy Apelbaum is Rudy Giuliani’s lawyer, Bob Costello . . .“There’s no possible way all of the information that was eventually labeled as my laptop came from one laptop.It’s way too large . . .
They hacked my cloud . . .There’s the Netanyahu side, the Israeli side.
