>no one ever managed to corroborate the obviously fake news pushed by NYP.
At least two of the messages were DKIM-authenticated by an unrelated third party. Combine that with:
* The FBI, the DOJ, and the DNI all refuting the "Russian disinfo" theory
* Biden's campaign explicitly refusing to call the emails inauthentic
* Pics of Hunter in compromising positions
* The laptop being the subject of a grand jury subpoena
...and there's more evidence pointing towards the story's legitimacy than away from it. In fact, that leaves the only real thing pointing away as "it's a sketchy-ass tabloid", which is adhom at the end of the day.
