The Hunter Biden email cover-up may not be the most contemptible example of the modern political media’s corruption, but it is probably the most demonstrable.

Politico reports today that Ben Schreckinger’s new book, The Bidens: Inside the First Family’s Fifty-Year Rise to Power, corroborates much of the New York Post’s pre-election reporting on Hunter Biden’s emails. Two of them stick out: The first is a 2015 missive from a Ukrainian businessman thanking Hunter for the chance to meet Joe Biden — then, still vice president. The second is a 2017 email in which a proposed equity breakdown of a venture with Chinese energy executives included the line, “10 held by H for the big guy?” A Swedish government agency and two people who corresponded directly with Hunter also confirmed the emails.
