Where is John Paul Mac Isaac now? Hunter Biden's laptop whistleblower says he feels 'vindicated' by Twitter report
WILMINGTON, DELAWARE: The whistleblower of Hunter Biden's laptop said he was “vindicated” after Elon Musk released the bombshell report on how Twitter censored the first son’s shady overseas business dealings. "I’m grateful. I don’t know how many people know but I basically was financially ruined by Twitter last year. I tried to save my career because Twitter labeled my actions hacking,” said John Paul Mac Isaac, the former owner of the computer repair shop, according to Fox News.
“So obviously watching Elon release this material Friday night was very exciting for me because what I felt like I knew the whole time was true. And I feel vindicated,” he said. He added that if Musk owned Twitter earlier, things could have been different for him and his legal challenges.

“If he had bought Twitter during the lawsuit, I think things would have worked out a little bit better for me. But you know, it is what it is. And I’m grateful that the truth is coming out now and that I’m vindicated,” Isaac said.
While it is unclear where Isaac exactly is now, he had said earlier in November that he was at his Wilmington home and was afraid to go outside due to the fear of harassment. His shop, which serviced Hunter's laptop in April 2019, had turned it over to the FBI. He got in touch with Rudy Giuliani months later, who was a lawyer for then-President Donald Trump at the time. Giuliani provided a copy of the hard drive to the New York Post, which then published an expose.
Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion in October this year. He has now released through journalist Matt Taibbi an explosive report on how the top workers at the company suppressed what was on Hunter Biden’s laptop in October 2020. Taibbi's report said the decision to censor the story was made at the "highest levels of the company." The decision was apparently based upon the rationale that the report violated Twitter’s “hacked materials” policy, according to Taibbi's report.
The hacking theory has been questioned by many insiders, and Isaac too said he believes it does not add up. “The FBI took possession of the laptop on Dec 9, and with that they took all my notes, all my information that I had provided them, and so they had ample time to review that data and realize that it wasn’t Russia,” he said.
