Joe mentions blackmail
NYT acknowledges the laptop
Now Republicans are calling for action ... so the NYT controls the R's agenda? Maybe the R's are pulling a counter move in response to the D's, but even then, the R's are giving control of the pace to the D's
Sounds like a plan to keep everyone distracted and stir up emotions to channel into the next thing (e.g., false flag, next plandemic, nuke detonation, ...)
Simply I thinks it's because the DS is losing control and stuff is unraveling quickly. You will see more people/entities getting out in front of things as a way to try and save their asses.
