ANALYSIS – The Democrat domestic disinformation campaign to discredit the Hunter Biden laptop contents as Russian disinformation played a key role in securing Joe Biden's win against Donald Trump in 2020.
The central piece of this blatant election interference was the letter signed by fifty-one senior U.S. intelligence officials claiming, without evidence, that the laptop was likely part of a ruse by Moscow.
The letter was signed by national security luminaries (aka partisan hacks), such as former CIA directors John Brennan and Leon Panetta.
And it was all a Team Biden political dirty trick, admits the former senior U.S. intelligence official who Democrats got to organize the letter – the then-recent deputy director at the CIA, Mike Morell.
The successful effort to sway the election was also orchestrated at the very top of the Biden campaign.
The signers admitted in the original letter that they had no proof that Hunter's laptop was a Russian plot but still claimed the bombshell New York Post story revealing the contents of the laptop had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”
This letter was then used by the media to ignore and discredit the bombshell news, and social media platforms outright censored any mention of it as ‘disinformation.'
Joe Biden himself referenced the letter by these intelligence officials during the debate with Trump and repeatedly elsewhere.
And he was lying to us every time, as the House Judiciary Committee reminds us in this video.
And now we know that it wasn't just any Democrats behind the nefarious scheme, but a cadre of highly placed Biden campaign officials, including the current Secretary of State, Antony Blinken.
National Review writes:
Within days of the New York Post first breaking news of Hunter Biden's laptop, Secretary of State Antony Blinken — then a senior official on Joe Biden's campaign — reached out to a former CIA operative to collect signatures from senior American intelligence figures to discredit the story, according to recently declassified congressional testimony.
Mike Morell…a signatory to the infamous letter, reportedly told the House Judiciary Committee in private sworn testimony that Blinken personally reached out to him to manufacture the letter to undermine the credibility of the Post's reporting on the eve of the 2020 presidential election.
In his testimony, Morell, who until he wrote and signed the letter had been on a short list for CIA director, admitted that he organized the letter at the behest of Blinken.
He also stated that he later received a call from Steve Ricchetti, Chairman of the Biden campaign, following the October 22 debate to thank him for writing the letter.
Representative Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, tweeted a copy of the letter he sent to Blinken demanding more information about everyone involved in creating and promoting the false laptop letter.
In his letter, Jordan states: “It is apparent that the Biden campaign played an active role in the origins of the public statement, which had the effect of helping to suppress the Hunter Biden story and preventing American citizens from making a fully informed decision during the 2020 presidential election.”
As I have argued numerous times before, here and elsewhere, these intelligence officials were engaged in domestic disinformation and election interference at the highest level.
And they should be investigated by the FBI.
When asked why he wrote the letter, Morell states: “There were two intents.”
“One intent, he claims, “was to share our concern with the American people that the Russians were playing on this issue; and, two, it was [to] help Vice President [Biden].”
When asked why he wanted to help Biden, Morell admitted, “because I wanted him to win the election.”
It doesn't get more clear than that.
