The Hunter Biden laptop controversy presents a test for American democracy.  The laptop resides at the intersection of two First Amendment rights: freedom of speech and freedom of the press.

At the heart of the controversy is the criminal conspiracy in which Hunter Biden sold access to Joe Biden to co-conspirators all over the world.  Hunter's laptop serves as evidence of this conspiracy.  How this story was squashed by the FBI and covered up by the mainstream media (MSM) might be more important than the criminal behavior of a corrupt politician.  The FBI is part of a government bureaucracy that abridges free speech and a free press and subverts politicians it differs with.

The MSM have long had a love/hate relationship with America's two major political parties.  They love Democrats and hate Republicans.  Dan Rather rose to prominence at CBS by hounding Richard Nixon and was fired from the network for lying about the National Guard service record of President G.W. Bush.  The liberal media hated President Reagan.  The MSM are determined to destroy Donald Trump.  Democrats are treated differently.  The New York Times "checks with" Democrats before it runs a story.

The unelected bureaucracy is the real "Deep State", and dismantling it requires a detailed knowledge of how and why it works the way it does, some legislative reform, and someone who can bring in enough sharp people to clean up all the various Departments, etc..

I've never liked regulatory rulemaking that too often looks no different than legislation.  I think all legally binding rules should sunset automatically by the end of the Congress following the one in which they were enacted unless they are enacted into legislation.
