FBI confirms it knew Hunter Biden's laptop was authentic but did not disclose that to the public before 2020 election

The FBI was in possession of Hunter Biden's laptop in 2019 and knew it was authentic.
The FBI did not pursue any criminal investigation into the laptop's contents before the 2020 election.
In October 2020, the FBI told Twitter the laptop was real but did not publicly confirm its authenticity.
Twitter and other social media platforms suppressed reporting on contents of the laptop before the election.
The laptop's legitimacy was not confirmed publicly until 2022, after the election.
