Former Virginia Representative Denver Riggleman on Sunday said he is now working for Hunter Bidens legal team with the objective of showing the true origins of the salacious data that supporters of former president Donald Trump say is proof of lurid corruption allegations on the part of Mr Biden and his father, President Joe Biden.
Mr Riggleman, a former Air Force officer who worked as a technical adviser to the now-defunct House January 6 select committee after losing his congressional seat in 2020, told CNN on Sunday that he was retained by Mr Bidens lawyers to prepare a technical and analytical report compared to phone forensics regarding the purported laptop which Hunter Biden is alleged to have abandoned at a Delaware repair shop.
He told host Jim Acosta that he took the job because he hate[s] bullies and because many of the people promoting various accusations based on the purported laptop data also promoted the false conspiracy theories which led to the January 6 attack on the Capitol.
There are some things I cant talk about, unlike the grifters. I have to have transparency and verification to stand up in a court of law, but I can tell you this, Mr Riggleman continued. What we want to look at first is the data out there purported to be Hunter Bidens laptop, and we wanted to see if there was any forensic format, and make sure there was

Trump all the time, but after the Republicans stabbed him the back and ousted him for performing a gay marriage, he has done some good.

Forensic science with computers is spot on. They'll know the dates of the 1 and 0s. Email can be easy because if an email was sent out and responded to, that's a form of verification. Cryptographic signatures. They could follow the data to see the content on the computer it was sent to.
Bottom line: the FBI has had this laptop since 2019. If it was totally fake, we would know. If it was 100% Hunter's laptop, we would know.
