Folks investigating pizzagate have put a ton of energy and a lot of hope on a news story that I think we can conclusively say is fake. The idea that the NYPD saw on Weiner's laptop would take down Clinton and many others. Someone on here called Weiner's laptop the Rosetta Stone of Pizzagate. To mean it's like the briefcase in Pulp Fiction, whatever you want to imagine is in there is in there. One voater said it would show

Money laundering Child exploitation Sex crimes with minors (children) Perjury Pay to play through Clinton Foundation Obstruction of justice Other felony crimes

This idea started on messageboards and twitter and then continued on the dozens of "news" sites that popped up recently. Then TruePundit put out a story purporting to quote an "anonymous NYPD chief" saying the laptop would put Hillary Clinton away for life and it turned his stomach and that the NYPD had the laptop and turned it over to the FBI.

There's one problem with this story. The NYPD never had the laptop. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/22/us/politics/james-comey-election.html?_r=0

The Trump campaign would go on to hype this story. Erik Prince (serving as an unofficial advisor to the Trump campaign) went on Trump campaign CEO's Steve Bannon's radio show and backed this story up claiming high level sources at 1 Police Plaza

I started looking deeper into this a month ago. https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1747104

and did a thorough examination of the claims here.

The New York Times is out with a giant story James Comey over the past year. It covers the Clinton investigation, Loretta Lynch, Trump/Russia, Weiner. So here's what we can now reconfirm* the NY office of the FBI got the laptop, the NYPD is not mentioned whatsoever in the investigation. This Weiner laptop bombshell was a false story put out to deceive you.

F.B.I. agents in New York seized Mr. Weiner’s laptop in early October.

The NYPD never had Anthoney Weiner's laptop and never examined its content. We can say that all claims of what the NYPD saw on Anthony Weiner's laptop is false.

*Why do I say reconfirm? Because the mainstream media had this right last year. This false story about the NYPD having the laptop never came from a real source even if you take out the claims made about the laptop, nobody was reporting the NYPD had it. And a reading of the search warrant would make it clear the NYPD could not have it. https://www.scribd.com/document/334714814/Weiner-Email-Search-Warrant
