Mr. Shapley said that investigators had received the WhatsApp message in response to a search warrant. But the message was not among those that Mr. Biden’s lawyers handed over to federal prosecutors in response to grand jury subpoenas during the lengthy investigation run by the Justice Department with help from the I.R.S., according to a person familiar with the matter, nor was the message one that prosecutors pressed Mr. Biden’s lawyers to explain.

    Shapely has been peddling his conspiracy theories to any MAGA sympathizer who will listen to him, but turns down the opportunity to speak to anyone else.

    This is literally the same discredited “whistleblower” being rehashed by NYT a month after the guy did a whirlwind tour with no evidence and no official whistleblower status. This is irresponsible journalism at this point.

    All to attack a person who does not matter one iota.

    OK, Hunter Biden did a thing that looks sketch. If it turns out that thing is illegal then charge him and prove it in court.

    This is law school 101. Is someone twisted about it?
