Hunter Biden messages ‘independently confirmed’ to be authentic, GOP lawmaker says

A top House Republican said his staff independently authenticated materials from a laptop that purportedly belonged to Hunter Biden. Rep. Jim Jordan, the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, insisted during a Sunday interview on Fox News that the emails generating controversy for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden in the final weeks of the 2020 election cycle are “as real as real can be.” Biden, who leads in the polls against President Trump less than two weeks before Election Day, has issued a patchwork of denials in response to allegations that he got wrapped up in foreign business dealings involving his family. As Trump and his allies have sought to leverage the laptop controversy, one point they often make is that neither the former vice president nor his son Hunter have denied the authenticity of the emails, photos, and other contents found in a laptop and hard drive given to a Delaware computer shop that have been shared with the FBI and Rudy Giuliani, a personal attorney to the president.
