Summary: Hunter Biden consented to turn over all his communications through his laptop. All e-mails implicated everyone (US Persons, Government Officials, Corporations, Foreign Actors/Countries, etc.) he worked with as foreign insurgents open to investigation. To protect him as a consenting person in cooperation with any sensitive foreign surveillance operations, no agency can legally touch his laptop and any e-mail associated with it in an investigatory capacity without the approval of the AG -- then being Barr.
The Hunter Biden laptop story exploded around October 15th, 2020 not because it was timely for Trump and the election but because it HAD to.
The only reason the document on post 4891 below was disclosed so early is because it legally had to so all agencies knew they couldn't touch the Hunter Biden laptop despite SWATHES of proof in foreign interference, bribes, terrorism, child trafficking/pornography, illegal narcotics trade/use, prostitution, etc.
It came out 22 years before it "had to" so everyone (all agencies, legal firms, police, etc.) know you can't touch Hunter Biden without express approval of the AG.
I think the "real" Hunter Biden is in Witness Protection and the one doing the paintings now is an unincorporated/trustee manager of HUNTERBIDEN®.

How do you inform your target(s) ['business partners'] what you have?
https://qagg.news/?q=%23%234891
How do you blackmail your co-conspirators [partners-in-crime] across multiple international criminal syndicates that if you burn, they will burn with you.
One step back from the theory presented by OP, you have the blackmail data in a fail-safe lock box, ready to expose them all if any one of them goes public.
It exposes the crime, the criminals, the co-conspirators, and those lackeys paid to cover it up (U.S. Congress, EU Human Rights Commission, U.S. State Department, all the usual suspects).
How do you inform your target(s) ['business partners'] what you have?
You publish a New York Times Bestseller in which you spill the beans and name names. But instead of villains everyone involved are heroes. Flip the narrative, oh my... lions and tigers and bears.
Bill Browder's "Red Notice" details how Putin declared him a national security threat because he (Browder) was just a good business man who made billions of dollars during the presidency of Boris Yeltsin and so he (Browder) changed the focus of his life to become a leading advocate of human rights.
Some of the major actors in Browder's morality play?
Jonathan Winer
RED NOTICE (Chapter 32, page 289, para 2):
"I made several appointments for early March 2010 in Washington, D.C., arriving on the second of the month. My first meeting was with Jonathan Winer, a top international criminal lawyer. Before going into private practice, Jonathan had been the deputy assistant secretary of state for narcotics and law enforcement - commonly referred to in Washington as the 'DASS for drugs and thugs.' He'd been responsible for U.S. foreign policy regarding narco-traffickers and the Russian mafia. He'd been effective and a real tough customer."
Jonathan Winer.
It appears WIner is a wiseguy because he is untouchable to this day.
DOJ Inspector General Horawitz gave testimony on his FISA report to the Senate Homeland Security Committee on 18 Dec 2019 - same day as the House was debating and voting on impeachment, so this little tidbit was literally under the radar. Link below is a Fox News recording of the hearing.
Listen to Senator Lankford question IG Horowitz from 1:20:23 -> 1:23:40
DOJ Inspector General Horowitz testifies on FISA report / Fox News https://youtu.be/mW8Avfsq3cw?t=4823 (time stamped 1:20:23)
From the December 2019 IG Horowitz FISA report: Chapter 4, Section II, Sub-Section H, Page 116, para 2)
"On October 19, 2016, Steele also forwarded to Handling Agent 1 a report that Steele said he had obtained from State Department Official Jonathan Winer. Steele included a notation on the report explaining that Winer had been given the report by the friend of a well know Clinton supporter, and that the friend had obtained the report from a Turkish business man with strong links to the Russia, including the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation (FSB). The report included numerous allegations attributed to an FSB source, including that ... ".
Winer is one of two people he was unable to interview on the matter of the Steele dossier.
The dot yet to be connected is the Steele / Winer connection in the 2010 time frame. Browder was kicked out of and banned from Russia in November of 2005 and according to his book, he spent a lot of time working various departments of the British Government to push his issue to the highest level. It is not a leap that Steele, heading the Russia Desk at MI6 beginning in 2006 (date unknown) would have known both about Browder and acquainted with Winer because both Steele and Winer had overlapping portfolios. Winer passing a dossier to Steele in 2016 to pass on to the FBI suggests a trusted prior relationship.
"Steele returned to London and between 2006 and 2009 he headed the Russia Desk at MI6."

Sen John McCain, Sen Ben Cardin.
From 2010 to 2012 Sen. John McCain and Sen. Ben Cardin used an unverified report of the European Union's Human Rights Commission and unverified testimony of the source of the information of the EU/HRC report, William Browder, as the basis for passage of The Magnitsky Act, sanctions legislation originally targeting Russian officials and now used as a universal sanction vehicle. Fills in the 2010-2012 timeline of smoke and mirrors of the Russia / Ukraine hoaxes.
Watch the exchange (time stamp video below) between Pompeo and Sen Johnson (R) on 30 July 2020 about the actions of Jonathan Winer at the State Department in regard to the Steele Dossier being insinuated into the State Department.
Questioning then rotates to Senator Cardin (D-MD) who begins his questioning of Pompeo with a defense of the Magnitsky Act that Cardin and Sen McCain (R-AZ) cosponsored. Kinda seems to come out of the blue, doesn't it.

Crystia Freeland
An early co-conspirator in Bill Browder's activities in Russia. Browder used Lawfare techniques to file false law suits claiming corruption and connections to organized crime against Russian companies to drive down the stock price, buy it up at a song, then make millions when the suits got dropped or were proven baseless. One of his channels to plant false news stories about the law suits and rumors of corruption into international news organizations and the Russian press was Chrystia Freeland.
"Freeland started her journalism career as a stringer for the Financial Times, The Washington Post and The Economist while working in Ukraine.[25] Freeland later worked for the Financial Times in London as a deputy editor, and then as an editor for its weekend edition, FT.com, and UK news.[25] Freeland also served as Moscow bureau chief and Eastern Europe correspondent for the Financial Times."
Everyone knows that with that your next job after working as a journalist will include, the current Canadian Minister of Finance, former Minister of Governmental Affairs, former Minister of Foreign Affairs, former Minister of International Trade. You may recall she negotiated the USMCA for Canada.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrystia_Freeland
"Red Notice" is one of the best modern examples of narrative engineering. One of the more subtle techniques Browder uses (obviously not the first to do so, nor the last) to both build a narrative and send a message, is "in passing" gratuitously mentioning some films he has just seen in the narrative chronology or implies are relevant to understanding his ordeal. An interesting mix, and if seen in the light of implied threat of exposure and consequence, not very difficult to get the message being sent.
Animal House (various - in the end nothing to lose - bring it all crashing down)
Year of Living Dangerously (Defenestration for exposing the truth)
Wall Street (Insider Trading)
Midnight Express (Prison)
The Ghost Writer (Coded message in a book)
The Godfather (Mafia... settling scores)
Guess whose name was dropped at that 2018 Helsinki meeting between President Trump and President Putin.
https://youtu.be/cwxqOoIyWm0?t=1350
Everyone assumes that the uproar was over Trump's statement about not trusting Obama intelligence officials or James Comey. That comment resulted in no less than Senators John McCain and Senator Ben Cardin declaiming President Trump a traitor.
Again, whose name got dropped? Why? Coincidence? What was the uproar really over?
Trump, "As to who do I trust, they asked, Russia or our "Intelligence" from the Obama era, meaning people like Comey, ..." results in the following firestorm?

More than meets the eye or reaches the ear is going on behind the scenes.
Nobody is fooled by this in Congress. On the white hat side or the black hat side. They all know about the Magnitsky Act Hoax and Bill Browder's criminal activities in Russia.
Here's a documentary about it. When Nekarasov (director) was blocked internationally from distribution of his film he put it up on youtube and other platforms to view at no cost. It was censored and taken down. Kash Patel arranged for a showing to any representative or senator that would attend. It been at this site for a couple of years. If you want to know what the prequel was to the Russian Hoax... here you are.
Note: not free anymore but well worth the price of a ticket. The web site also has updates on more recent events surrounding the documentary and the Magnisky Act.

Fren, that was too good to leave as just a reply. Make this its own post. Believe in yourself, dude.
Freeland's mother was also involved with Soros in the Ukraine.
Did not know that.
The family connections get clearer and clearer the more the pot boils.
There's the title of the soap opera about the cabal...

u/#q4891
Thank you for reposting OP's post to Q drop 4891 and, repeating my link to Q drop 4891 (second line of comment), as footnote for the one line of 4891 (line one of comment) which was relevant to the information provided in my comment.
I am not sure how readers who have paid as much attention to the OP's posting of Q drop 4891 and those first two lines of the comment above as you would be able to navigate either OP's or my comments without a third link to Q post 4891.
The subtlety of not commenting further on either OP's comments or on my comments or on Q drop 4891, in general or in detail, is such a grand nod to those who can read minds.
Thanks for the informed addition to the above dialogues.
Bravo Zulu.
