Hunter Biden rewrote the laptop timeline federal exhibits had fixed

Delaware repair shop owner John Paul Mac Isaac told PBD Podcast that Justice Department filings and matching serial numbers undercut Hunter Biden’s account of the machine from his Wilmington shop.

In an episode posted Aug. 18, 2026, John Paul Mac Isaac used the PBD Podcast to challenge Hunter Biden’s effort to change how the laptop left his Wilmington repair business. Mac Isaac said he had watched that reframing for at least six months and treated it as absurd next to what prosecutors already entered in court.

Mac Isaac told the hosts that Hunter Biden’s public claims about the laptop kept failing against evidence from President Joe Biden’s Justice Department. "Every lie that's come out of Hunter's mouth has actually been proven in court to be a lie by his father's own DOJ," he said.

He singled out Exhibit 6 as a government timeline that tracked his contact with Hunter Biden and the machine itself. "Exhibit six was the timeline for the laptop and it clearly states that I sent him an email. I called him. He called me back. He came back to the shop," Mac Isaac said. He added that "the serial number of his laptop that he signed for was the same serial number that was on the subpoena."

Mac Isaac said the only reason to keep rewriting that sequence would be debt or a documentary pushing a cleaner story. "He's trying to rewrite history unless he owes somebody a lot of money that's also producing a documentary that wants a certain narrative to be pushed," he said. He did not name a producer or document a payment on the segment.

The clip ended before he spelled out Hunter Biden’s most recent public comments or who might fund the documentary work he described. On this upload, his case rested on shop records and DOJ exhibits he said had already fixed the laptop’s path through his store.
