Purported Hunter Biden emails will 'shock the hell out of yo

This is Hunter Biden's emails, texts, and really the photographs will shock the hell out of you," Giuliani said, adding that Hunter Biden's attorney was not disputing their legitimacy.

He claimed he had a memo tying Joe Biden to Hunter Biden's international business, while the presidential nominee repeatedly has denied discussing Hunter's overseas business interests with him. 

Robert Costello, a lawyer for Giuliani, told Fox News on Wednesday he obtained a copy of a hard drive containing some 40,000 emails, thousands of text messages and photographs and videos of the younger Biden in "very compromising positions." But he also emphasized that a Delaware computer repair shop owner handed over the documents and images to the FBI last December after he learned of the concerning contents on a damaged Apple MacBook Pro -- and it remained unclear what further investigation the bureau performed, if any.
