The record cites page 55 of the committee’s interview with FBI employee Roya Demlow, conducted on 07/17/2023. The line records a question: If someone were to leave the interview and suggest or imply that when you said the laptop was real, that it meant the FBI had affirmatively determined in October 2020 that the laptop belonged to Hunter Biden, that the contents belonged to Hunter Biden, and that the contents had not been manipulated in some way, would they be representing what you said? Correct? Miss Demlow’s answer: They would be representing what I said because I don't have much knowledge of that. They would be misrepresenting what I said because I don't have much knowledge of that. The statement continues with the speaker noting that this committee “likes to misrepresent or leave off complete sentences of what individuals said,” and adds, “I'd like to introduce this into the record.” The speaker then references the FBI's usual “no comment” stance, noting that such a response is common “when there's an ongoing investigation, particularly when it's a couple of days before an…” The transcript ends there, but the portion presented emphasizes Demlow’s caveat about knowledge limits and the record-keeping concern about misrepresentation by the committee, alongside the referenced context of no-comment responses in ongoing investigations.

Republicans in the House plan to investigate Hunter Biden, the president's son, and are interested in data from his laptop. CBS News obtained this data directly from the source, who provided it to the FBI under subpoena. An independent forensic review confirmed the authenticity of the data. The laptop was taken to a Delaware computer shop for repair in 2019 but was never paid for, leading the store to consider it abandoned. The FBI later subpoenaed the store's owner for the laptop and its data. The laptop and its contents have fueled Republican interest in Hunter Biden's business dealings, but there is no evidence that President Biden directly benefited from them. The White House declined to comment.

Speaker 0 is demanding to know the whereabouts of Hunter Biden's laptop, expressing concern about potential national security risks. The FBI Cyber assistant director admits to not knowing the laptop's location, despite it being turned over to the FBI in 2019. Speaker 0 requests to enter the contents of the laptop into the committee's record.

The FBI initially refused to take the copy of Hunter Biden's laptop in October 2019, indicating their reluctance to get involved. They approached the speaker in November 2019 to understand their concerns but still hesitated to take the laptop. Eventually, in December 2019, they obtained it through a subpoena. However, during the impeachment trial, the laptop did not surface, leading the speaker to believe that the FBI prioritized protecting the Bidens over the truth or safeguarding.

During the committee's interview with FBI employee Roya Demlow on July 17, 2023, a question was posed regarding the implications of her statement about the laptop being real. The inquiry focused on whether someone leaving the interview could suggest or imply that her acknowledgment of the laptop's authenticity significantly impacted the rates.

In October 2020, with Joe Biden "in trouble" regarding his laptop, Anthony Blinken, Biden's campaign aide, allegedly told Michael Morrell to "round them up." Subsequently, 51 intelligence authorities swore the laptop had "all the hallmarks of Russian information." During the debate, when Trump attacked Biden about the laptop, Biden responded that 51 intelligence authorities swore it was a product of Russian espionage. A poll later indicated that if people had known the laptop was authenticated, it would have changed their vote. The laptop was in the FBI's possession and deemed authentic, but Christopher Wray's FBI was partnering with Twitter and Facebook to suppress the story.

Speaker 0 presents a very quick briefing and discusses the credibility of the different things they've seen. They say, "these files were made up by the sea. They were made up by Obama. They were made" as a claim about the files’ origin, with the sentence trailing off in the transcript.

Last night, it was revealed that Tony Blinken played a significant role in orchestrating a plan involving 51 intelligence operatives. Their objective was to discredit a laptop that is widely known to be genuine. All evidence points to Blinken as the mastermind behind this scheme. It is crucial that he is questioned and held accountable for his actions.

In 2019, John Paul and Matt Geising received a laptop in Delaware but didn't pick it up. They tried to involve the detective in September, but he wasn't interested. Finally, in December 2019, they retrieved the laptop. In July 2020, the FBI had the laptop for several months and started briefing Twitter executives about a potential threat to elections involving a hack and dump of disparaging information. Facebook was also warned about potential misinformation campaigns right before the election. Both Facebook and Twitter were alerted by the FBI, who had prior knowledge of these events.

There were multiple improbable factors that would have had to align for these bombs to be discovered at the same time on a sidewalk, prompting questions about a broader conspiracy and how such a scenario could unfold. The speakers emphasize that while they want to avoid a conspiracy path, there are many questions still open, including the handling of video footage. Regarding video records, one speaker notes that they want to review January 6 video to see if anyone returned to the locations, but that video apparently does not exist anymore. They do have January 5 video, but have been told that no one preserved January 6. This raises eyebrows as they consider whether the devices were placed by an inexperienced person who was trying to set them down quickly or whether the devices were left to be found. Mrs. Younger’s account is highlighted: she walked out her back door and did not see anything earlier in the morning, but saw the devices later, which would give a reason to believe she would have noticed them if they had been there in the morning. This observation is part of why they want to talk to her. One speaker is blown away by a point: according to the FBI, the FBI’s internal data indicate 39,000 videos showing the hoodie-clad pipe bomber—referred to as the C. Virkel bomber—movements that night, from various camera angles. Washington, DC, Capitol Hill is described as among the most surveilled areas in the world. Yet there is a claim that there is no footage from January 6 of the actual areas a person would have had to travel to place the pipe bombs. The other speaker confirms that there are cameras along some Capitol Police lines that show walking paths, including footage from Capitol Police cameras, but the angles that would show positions behind the RNC and behind the DNC do not exist today, at least not in a way that captures the relevant movements. This absence has limited the investigation into the theory that the devices could have been placed earlier and then moved or re-placed. They are now going back through Capitol Police footage, including from the Fairchild Building near the DNC, which has provided the most evidence so far. The team is reviewing hours from about 8 PM on May 5 to 1 PM on January 6 to determine whether anyone else passed by, whether there was any suspicious activity, and whether the devices were moved again. The investigators are evaluating step-by-step explanations for these anomalies, considering whether the Secret Service dog failed to detect one device or whether Mrs. Younger missed the other, whether the devices were not present at that time, or whether weather and other factors affected detections. They acknowledge that with so many circumstances, some “smoke” might indicate “fire.” They hope the FBI is reviewing cell phone data to determine if the suspected bomber returned or if a co-conspirator was involved in setting timers or re-placing devices. The transcript ends with an acknowledgment of ongoing investigation scope and questions.

I want to introduce page 5055 from the committee's interview with FBI employee Roya Demlow on July 17, 2023. If someone suggests that when Demlow said the laptop was real, it meant the FBI confirmed it belonged to Hunter Biden in October 2020, would they be misrepresenting her words? Demlow confirmed they would be misrepresenting her because she does not have much knowledge on that matter.

The discussion revolves around the authenticity of the Hunter Biden laptop. Speaker 0 questions Speaker 1 about the New York Post article, stating that the laptop was not authenticated and suggesting possible manipulation by Rudy Giuliani or Russia. Speaker 1 asks for evidence of this claim. Speaker 0 agrees that transparency is crucial and asks if public testimony by Hunter Biden would be more transparent than private testimony. Speaker 1 admits to never considering this and refers to the First Amendment. The conversation abruptly ends.

A team of six people took two and a half weeks to investigate a laptop purportedly belonging to Hunter Biden. It is claimed that with more staff, the story could have been reported within a week. It is argued that a story could have been run stating that a laptop had emerged, purported to be Hunter Biden's, noting that its authenticity had not been completely verified, but that it corresponded with government records released a week prior. The speaker claims that the media often reports on unverified information, citing the anonymous dossier as an example. They suggest that the New York Times or other mainstream media outlets could have reported on the laptop by October 21st, even if they first learned about it from The New York Post.

These remarks were notable as Crooks reached the final phase of his YouTube commenting, during which a new figure, Willie Tepes, pressured Crooks to embrace violence. Tepes wrote, “if a gun and a badge is all that is needed, then authority obviously comes from the barrel of a gun. We have more guns than they do. There is no way we can avoid a war at this point, so you better just get used to the idea. We have nothing to lose and everything to win. And the alternative, a global police state, is unacceptable.” The identity of Willie Tepes remains unknown; the FBI has not publicly mentioned him, though they are aware he exists. Days after the shooting, someone screenshotted Tepes’ YouTube account page despite him having few followers. The user’s online footprint now appears on a foreign Antifa website linking Tepes to the Nordic Resistance Movement, a group designated a terrorist organization by the US State Department. Crooks’ online footprint abruptly ends after his encounter with Tepes. Regardless of Tepes’ motives or affiliations, Crooks was clearly ripe for recruitment; from early 2019 to mid-2020, his political views evolved and he searched for Trump more than 700 times online, as well as for Jack Ruby, the man who assassinated Lee Harvey Oswald. He submitted queries including “craziest chemical reactions,” “cars running over protesters,” “best places for mass shooting,” “mass shooting El Paso,” “Trump’s civil war,” “Orlando shooting reaction,” “firing an AR-15 as fast as possible,” “fertilizer bomb,” “how to make napalm,” “how to make Molotov cocktail,” “mass shooting Canada,” “Oklahoma bombing,” and “sniper in Dallas shooting.” He also searched for “American Nazi Party,” “German national anthem 1933, 1945,” “Hitler’s speeches with subtitles,” “neo Nazis,” and “why gays need to go.” Thus, a volatile, troubled, possibly mentally ill young man with a long record of espousing violence in public. The FBI clearly knew he existed. At the same time Crooks was making these posts publicly, the FBI was issuing contracts to private sector tech surveillance firms to harness mass data collection tools to monitor social media for people just like Crooks. It is hard to imagine Crooks, posting in his own name, had not been identified and looked at closely by federal law enforcement. The FBI had access to these YouTube comments, and instead of providing valuable insights, they selectively read them to mischaracterize Crooks’ thoughts. Two and a half weeks after the July 30 attack, a source familiar with the investigation told CNN that federal investigators were looking into a YouTube account possibly connected to Crooks that espoused political violence as well as antisemitic and anti-immigration themes. It wasn’t “possibly connected to Thomas Crooks” as the FBI knew it was Crooks’ account; the same day, the FBI’s deputy director made the same dishonest claim before Congress, and the previous week FBI Director Christopher Wray publicly questioned whether Trump was even shot. In February 2025, the New York Post reported that the FBI obstructed efforts to solve why Thomas Matthew Crooks, who left no manifesto, did what he did. The Post said this left local law enforcement, Crooks’ former friends, classmates, and teachers frustrated, and noted that the cremation timing raised concerns. Less than a month after the shooting, Congressman Clay Higgins of Louisiana, a former police officer, investigated in Butler and learned that the FBI released Crooks’ body for cremation ten days after July 13. Higgins reported that the coroner said Crooks’ body would not have been released to the family for cremation or burial without FBI permission. The cremation, the day House Homeland Security and Oversight Committees began investigations, made it impossible for investigators outside the FBI to verify the autopsy report; a new tox screen could not be performed because the body no longer exists.

In 2020, the speaker received a laptop with files allegedly belonging to Hunter Biden. They compared the laptop's information with verified sources like Secret Service travel records and suspicious activity reports. The laptop's emails matched up with the records, including wire transfers and correspondence from Hunter Biden's business partner. The speaker's team in Florida conducted this research, while major news outlets showed no interest in pursuing the story. The speaker believes that if similar information had involved other political figures, it would have been considered important news.

I want to introduce page 55 from the committee's interview with FBI employee Roya Demlow, which took place on July 17, 2023. The discussion centers on whether Demlow's statement that the laptop was real implied that the FBI had confirmed in October 2020 that the laptop belonged to Hunter Biden. Demlow clarified that if someone were to suggest that, they would be misrepresenting her statement, as she does not have sufficient knowledge on that matter.

More than 50 ex-intelligence officials claimed the laptop story had Russian origins. Biden referenced this at a debate to counter Trump's accusations of Russian involvement. Translation: Over 50 former intelligence officials stated that the laptop story had Russian origins. Biden used this information during a debate to refute Trump's accusations of Russian involvement.

The FBI is reopening its investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server. The Wall Street Journal reports that 650,000 emails are sitting on Anthony Weiner's laptop, and thousands of those may involve Clinton's server since Weiner was married to Clinton's top aide when she was secretary of state. To cover up her crimes, she bleached and deleted 33,000 emails after receiving a congressional subpoena. A computer used by former congressman Anthony Weiner and his estranged wife, Huma Abedin, is now the focus of new inquiries. Sources say there could be as many as 650,000 emails on the computer with underlying metadata suggesting that thousands of those messages could have been sent to or from the private server that Mrs. Clinton used while she was secretary of state. The laptop had previously not come up in the Clinton email probe. Anthony Weiner’s laptop reportedly contained kill switches and was not released before. Weiner’s laptop is connected to an investigation into whether he sent sexually charged emails to a teenage minor; the laptop hadn’t previously come up in the Clinton probe. In an exclusive interview with Inside Edition, a minor says she first sent Weiner a message on Twitter in January 2016 when she was 15 years old. She says the messages quickly turned obscene, and she was disgusted, which contributed to her coming forward. At the time, Weiner's wife, Huma Abedin, was helping run Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. The FBI's investigation of Weiner's laptop led to the discovery of a new batch of emails that Clinton had sent to Abedin, which led former FBI director James Comey to reopen the investigation into Clinton's use of a private email server just days before the presidential election. Inside Edition says it is withholding the girl's name because she is underage, but her father gave permission for her face to be shown. Weiner pled guilty to a charge of transferring obscene material to a minor. Commentators note that Comey’s October 2016 reopening announcement was controversial, with some saying it cost Hillary Clinton the election. It is argued that the NYPD started investigating via subpoena and warrant, and they found 650,000 emails on Weiner’s laptop, including Clinton emails, Huma Abedin’s emails, and evidence pertaining to Clinton Foundation. They reportedly found state department emails and material including money laundering and references to a trip to Epstein’s “sex island,” with Clinton and Bill Clinton allegedly there multiple times. The material was given to the FBI, with threats to go public if the investigation wasn’t reopened or indictments issued. There is testimony that “nine cops watched the videos on Wiener's laptop,” and that those officers were later dead. Another account says there were 12 individuals who saw the laptop, and none are dead. Reports note a surge in NYPD suicides this year, with nine or more officers dying by suicide, including the latest at Queens General Hospital. One account links deputy chief Steven Silks to overseeing evidence from the Weiner laptop and to copies made of that evidence; Silks reportedly died by an alleged self-inflicted gunshot wound one month before mandatory retirement. Other rumors claim the laptop contained numerous emails from Hillary Clinton during her time as secretary of state, “insurance policy” files, and family involvement, with allegations that the FBI lost the laptop. A high-ranking NYPD official reportedly warned of grave contents and indicated others had copies of the information. Proponents argue that, if the Weiner laptop were released, the government would fall.

The investigation confirmed the authenticity of the laptop as early as late 2019, with both the DOJ and FBI aware of its legitimacy. In October 2020, reports emerged labeling the laptop as potential Russian disinformation, including comments from the current Secretary of State, which were tied to emails from the laptop. This appeared to be a coordinated effort to discredit the information ahead of the election. The assertion by former intelligence officials that the laptop had the hallmarks of a Russian operation was recognized as false. As a criminal investigator, it was clear that the narrative was misinformation aimed at obscuring the truth.

Speaker 0 asks about Hunter Biden's laptop, questioning FBI Cyber's knowledge. They mention the laptop was turned over to the FBI in 2019, but the assistant director doesn't know its current location. Speaker 0 requests to enter Hunter Biden's laptop contents into the record. Speaker 2 praises Matt Gaetz's questioning and criticizes the FBI. Translation: Speaker 0 inquires about Hunter Biden's laptop and questions the FBI Cyber's awareness. The laptop was given to the FBI in 2019, but the assistant director is unaware of its current whereabouts. Speaker 0 requests to include Hunter Biden's laptop contents in the record. Speaker 2 applauds Matt Gaetz's questioning and condemns the FBI.

FBI agents are seeking tips regarding the unidentified person who planted bombs near the Democratic National Party Headquarters. One video shows the suspect sitting on a park bench near the location. The frame rate of most CCTV cameras is around 15 frames per second (FPS). However, the security video released by the FBI of the pipe bomb suspect operates at just one FPS. A study found that no cameras in America today operate at such a low frame rate. Considering the history of attacks on the DNC building and the security measures in place, it is highly unlikely that the FBI's video is the original, unedited footage.

I will introduce page 5055 from the committee's interview with FBI employee Roya Demlow on July 17, 2023. Demlow stated that suggesting the FBI had determined Hunter Biden's laptop ownership in October 2020 based on her comment that the laptop was real would be misrepresenting her words, as she lacks knowledge on the matter.

The speaker asks how much the source of the Hunter Biden laptop story matters, given that the information is coming out through Steve Bannon and Rudy Giuliani. The interviewee responds that the source and timing matter a lot, and that this appears to be classic Soviet Russian tradecraft. According to the interviewee, the Russians understand that the president and his enablers crave dirt on Vice President Biden, so whether the information is real or contrived doesn't matter to them. The interviewee believes emails could be contrived, especially if they appear without metadata. The interviewee states that if the FBI has the computer, they will be able to determine if it is genuine or not, but the timing is curious.

I want to introduce into the record page 5055 from the committee's interview with FBI employee Roya Demlow, which took place on July 17, 2023. During this interview, there was a suggestion that when Demlow stated the laptop was real, it implied the FBI had confirmed in October 2020 that the laptop belonged to Hunter Biden. Demlow clarified that this interpretation would misrepresent her statement, as she does not have sufficient knowledge on that matter.
