> possibly faked or hacked emails

What gives you the impression that this is the case? Hunter Biden's receipts from the computer repair shop are public for this too. I think bias might be clouding your judgement.

EDIT: Because HN isn't even allowing me to reply to the comment by user heartbreak, I will just edit this here:

He was NOT impeached for bribing Ukraine into fabricating exactly this sort of story. He was impeached because the democrats didn't want Biden's crimes exposed. “When exposing a crime is treated as committing a crime you’re being ruled by criminals” - Edward Snowden

The emails came from Hunter Biden’s laptop that he dropped off to get fixed. He never came back to get it therefore it became property of the shop. They spent money fixing it, waited for him to pick it up, he didn’t so by the terms of the agreement the shop owned it. All Hunter had to do is pay $85 and pick up his laptop. The NYT published illegally obtained tax returns of Trump. Why weren’t they censored?

Because the President was impeached nine months ago for bribing Ukraine into fabricating exactly this sort of story.

No, he was impeached for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress[1].

> the democrats didn't want Biden's crimes exposed

Biden hadn't even won the presidential nomination then, so this seems quite a stretch. Also there were no allegations against Joe Biden then, and the allegations against Hunter Biden seemed all to be very non-specific.

Where? I didn’t see those. How does he have public receipts for something he never paid for?

Edit: Never mind. I saw it. It’s a quote, not a receipt. I just can’t believe someone would take a laptop to a random, low quality based on the price, repair shop for data recovery like that. “Hi. Can you get my sex tape, crack smoking video, and incriminating, politically sensitive emails off this thing?”

The NY Post story allegedly has pictures of the receipt as an attachment to the FBI subpoena for the laptop.
