The Gateway Pundit has finally issued its long overdue apology to Garrett Ziegler and Marco Polo; and here is the entire story. Since day one, Marco Polo and its founder former Trump White House advisor Garrett Ziegler have been the definitive and authoritative source and producer of reliable evidence respective to the highly censored matter of the Biden laptop, which played an integral role in the stolen 2020 election.
Marco Polo’s possession and handling of the hard drive became an immediate and very public matter where at first, no one would touch what ultimately was another case of ‘unavoidable circumstances.’
To the contrary, the federal apparatus and specifically DOJ/FBI colluded with mainstream and social media to suppress and censor the Hunter Biden laptop story, which caused the crosshairs to acutely focus and Ziegler, Marco Polo and it’s forensic dossier on the device.
Over time; however, and sans a plausible and effective means of dissuading people from engaging in a topic or forming concrete opinions about it, the Intelligence Community was required to do what it normally does when the truth emerges in ways damaging to the establishment: attack the truth teller.
As time passed, the attacks mounted on Ziegler and Marco Polo but to no avail.
Marco Polo initiated its effort to produce an historically worthy forensic dossier that would sustain the test of time by installing an operational plan detailing the forensic analysis, sourcing/citing and production of evidence according to the highest of standards.
As the attacks mounted, an unwavering Ziegler and Marco Polo remained steadfast in adhering to the operational plan and the resulting presentation of their investigative findings.
The attacks include litigation filed against Ziegler and Marco Polo out of desperation because it’s one of the only remaining options for the Intelligence Community and its principal the Biden Administration, et al. to manage the unavoidable circumstance of irrefutable and severely aggravating evidence for a list of crimes committed:
Friend, Colleague and Patriot Garrett Ziegler Targeted by Biden Lawfare Over Hunter’s Laptop and Marco Polo’s Forensic Report
At first, the Hunter Biden laptop was not Hunter Biden’s and the mainstream media swore up and down that this was true. Then 51 intelligence officials inked their names on a document stating that Hunter Biden’s laptop was just Russian disinformation. The mainstream media swore up and down again. Then Hunter Biden’s laptop became Hunter Biden’s laptop an…
Ziegler Responds to Biden Lawfare Inquiry Over Marco Polo Laptop Report, Further Analysis Uncovers More Chinese Entanglements
Two days ago, I penned a piece about the Biden Crime Family’s lawfare suit against friend, colleague and patriot, Garrett Ziegler. The lawsuit filed by Winston & Strawn LLP on behalf of Hunter Biden targets Ziegler and his Marco Polo 501[c][3] outfit for its forensic analysis and publicly available report on the Hunter Biden laptop contents.
In the end, the plan prevailed because its only pillar was the truth and no matter what the Intelligence Community and adversaries of America do or don’t do, the truth always shines through in the end and when it did, there stood Ziegler and Marco Polo as right as rain and delivering the same consistent message of truth it had from the time the forensic dossier was made public.
Regular readers know that prior to the dossier’s publication and during the time Marco Polo faced attacks, denial and detraction, I possessed a forensic copy of the Biden laptop hard drive while the entire time the MSM media was denying its existence including at the very moment that 51 intelligence officials inked their names to a fraudulent letter disavowing that evidence as more Russian collusion.
Intelligently and according to good practice, Ziegler ensured that multiple copies of the hard drive were possessed by multiple people because in this high stakes game because that’s how you stay alive and avoid being Arkancided.
A recurring problem in American politics that is fueled by the net-effect of the federal government’s massive propaganda machine is the cutthroat aspect of ego and outside interference that cause partisan constituents and media across the spectrum on both sides to eat one another.
The Gateway Pundit engaged in precisely this practice by assailing and attacking Marco Polo over its production of evidence from its forensic dossier.
From the very beginning, I broke exclusive stories sometimes handed to me by Ziegler to document and preserve the evidence in the entire broader matter, which was complied into its own series: MARCO POLO/BIDEN LAPTOP.
At the onset, conservative media outlet and news aggregator The Gateway Pundit took a peculiar and hard line stance on Ziegler, Marco Polo and its forensic dossier on the Hunter Biden laptop when it swung and missed in a discrediting attempt [published 27 Jan 23]:
SWING and a MISS: Shoddy Forensics Causes Gateway Pundit to Embarrass Itself and Defame Marco Polo with Attempted Smear Tactics
What is The Gateway Pundit doing? Given that no person or group has unpacked the Biden Family Laptop with such precision, accuracy and granular detail than former Trump White House advisor Garrett Ziegler and his Marco Polo organization, why is it that TGP is just

Marco Polo Issues Formal Response to Gateway Pundit’s Smear Tactics, Libelous Error and False Accusation
Three days following heavy handed smear tactics from The Gateway Pundit that rise to a libelous error and the leveling of false accusations, Garrett Ziegler and Marco Polo have hit back with a detailed and clear formal response putting the shoddy “journalism” in its place.
The Gateway Pundit was unrelenting in its attacks on Ziegler and Garrett as it remained engaged in smearing both [published 01 Feb 23, 12 Jul 23 and 03 Dec 23, respectively]:
Libelous Gateway Pundit Article Smearing Marco Polo Is Updated in Retrospect: Admits Error, Still No Retraction or Apology – “What Sort of Playground Is This?”
What sort of playground is this? You tell us, Gateway Pundit. You asked the question so now, why don’t you answer it in a manner emblematic of your outlet having a modicum of journalistic integrity? Or won’t your apparent intelligence community handlers permit that instead deciding to sneak a flimsy and pathetic effort through the backdoor?
MARCO POLO and THE BIDEN LAPTOP: The Gateway Pundit Is Having Its Cake and Eating It, Too
The Marco Polo team founded by former Trump White House advisor Garrett Ziegler is unquestionably the authoritative voice on the Biden family’s criminality and worse as evidenced by the Hunter Biden laptop. Moreover, Marco Polo’s historically worthy dossier is the definitive report on the laptop. Most importantly, it’s the light of truth that is the bes…
Criminal Forgery by Intelligence Community Operative Yaacov Apelbaum Seeks to Further Discredit and Attack Garrett Ziegler and Marco Polo Over Biden Laptop
Working exclusively with longtime friend, colleague and former Trump White House advisor Garrett Ziegler and his Marco Polo team has provided Moonshine reader’s with a flow of reliable inside information, commentary and analysis centered on all aspects of the Biden laptop and all of the incriminating evidence it contains.
The last article in the Marco Polo series was written in mid-December 2023 and until last evening, I hadn’t seen any further developments on which to report until Ziegler prompted me with a message as he routinely does.
In early February 2023, I said this, “What sort of playground is this? You tell us, Gateway Pundit. You asked the question so now, why don’t you answer it in a manner emblematic of your outlet having a modicum of journalistic integrity? Or won’t your apparent intelligence community handlers permit that instead deciding to sneak a flimsy and pathetic effort through the backdoor?”
Even before that, I was calling for The Gateway Pundit to apologize, “At the least, The Gateway Pundit owes Ziegler and Marco Polo an apology and a retraction and at the most, they should alert their counsel on retainer for possible litigation that will amount to a difficult defense. […] If The Gateway Pundit isn’t what I’m suggesting it is, TGP should immediately retract its article and issue the apology to Ziegler and Marco Polo. If TGP doesn’t do those two things, it would appear that TGP is exactly what I’m suggesting it is – an operation that is subject to undue influence by the intelligence community – and those entanglements thread to Israel and China courtesy of XRVision.”
Sometimes I miss things in the news cycle and this is one of those occasions where Garrett kindly bailed me out sending this, which updates a TGP article from 27 Jan 23 and where the relevant portion is highlighted:
Ziegler and Marco Polo set-out with an operational plan to deliver the absolute truth about the most corrupt and criminal presidential administration ever save perhaps Obama’s two terms, but then again, we all know Obama’s third term was Donald Trump’s first and his fourth is Joe Biden’s only term.
Ziegler and Marco Polo absorbed all of the attacks and let the truth be the only retort that matters.
In the end, The Gateway Pundit took the high road to acknowledge its mistakes and embrace the truth that Ziegler and Marco Polo continue to deliver to the American people.
At this point, the criticisms appear to be: 1-The length of time it took to issue this apology remains a point of contention for further examination indicating that, 2-the Intelligence Community is still at hand managing this ‘unavoidable circumstance’ and 3-TGP could have done much better than updating an article as an apology.
What The Gateway Pundit should have done is run a feature piece with a proper apology that outlines where the outlet went wrong and where the public can find complete confidence in Marco Polo’s forensic analysis, but it didn’t do that.
If one is going to run to the front of the line and holler “FRAUD!” in front of the entire nation, when one is wrong about those allegations, one should return to the front of the line to issue the apology; not whisper it from the backseat in an update to an article that is over a year old.
Nonetheless, The Gateway Pundit has finally taken the high road we wanted to see it take in issuing the apology that Garrett Ziegler and Marco Polo deserve.
Thank you to Ziegler and Marco Polo for contributing to this story.
-End-
I stand with Marco Polo!!! It is obvious that The Gateway Pundit is exactly what their name implies; a Gate way for information as they are just like the Glenn Beck’s, Sean Hannity’s, Clay and Buck’s of the world as “Gatekeepers” only allowing so much of what the government’s Intelligence Community approved as information out to the public!!! I was appalled the other day when listening to Beck to hear him and his on-air lackeys call those who find the official US Government narrative that 9/11 was caused by middle eastern terrorists, that building 7 can catch fire and fall down on its own, etc. as Conspiracy theorists whacko’s!!! I guess Glenn still believes we went to the moon, Roswell was a weather balloon and Oswald was the lone shooter of Kennedy!!!
I looked over the Marco Polo laptop information and it was an outstanding and amazing forensic deep dive reporting into some seriously sickening, downright repulsive and sadisticly sick content on Hunter Biden’s perversion and criminal activity and stunning to see, look at and read!!! It is not for the faint of heart or sensitive eyes to say the least!!! They document something like 540 felonies and misdemeanor crimes found on the laptop that Hunter committed yet the FBI denies any of it ever happened!!!
I will never read the Gateway Pundit again!!!
I used to do some volunteer editing for them as their work was figuratively dog poop. When all this MP stuff went down, I told them I would no longer edit for them or even read it. I was done. Never went back.
