With new reports on Hunter Biden’s laptop being released, more Americans are finding out the truth. And following Hunter’s guilty verdict, more information is being discovered.
But now, stunning new Hunter Biden laptop reports have revealed major FBI secrets.
In a striking display of defiance, not a single one of the 51 former intelligence officials who signed a letter in 2020 suggesting that Hunter Biden’s laptop was likely “Russian disinformation” has retracted their claim, despite mounting evidence to the contrary.
This development raises serious questions about the credibility and motivations of these officials, many of whom held high-ranking positions in the intelligence community.
The letter, which played a significant role in shaping public perception during the 2020 presidential election, has now been thoroughly discredited.
It has been revealed that the FBI was in possession of Hunter Biden’s laptop at the time, and it was known to be authentic.
This revelation casts doubt on the motivations behind the letter and suggests a possible coordinated effort to mislead the public for political purposes.
Erika Jensen, an FBI agent and witness in Hunter Biden’s gun trial, confirmed last week that the laptop was genuine and had not been tampered with.
Jensen’s testimony debunked claims that the laptop’s data was hacked or manipulated, or that it was part of a Russian disinformation plot to aid former President Donald Trump’s campaign.
The letter was widely circulated and heavily relied upon by major media outlets and Democratic operatives to discredit the explosive revelations about Hunter Biden’s business dealings found on the laptop.
The New York Post’s Emma-Jo Morris, who initially broke the story, faced significant backlash and censorship from social media platforms, further amplifying the narrative pushed by the former intelligence officials.
CNN reporter Natasha Bertrand amplified the discredited narrative through a story in Politico, which cited the letter signed by the 51 officials.
This narrative was subsequently used by then-presidential candidate Joe Biden during a debate with Trump to dismiss the laptop’s contents as Russian disinformation, reportedly with coordination from current Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
Despite overwhelming evidence contradicting their claims, many of the signatories refuse to admit they were wrong.
Former Obama Director of National Intelligence James Clapper told Fox News that he does not regret signing the letter.
Other signatories, including Ronald Marks, Marc Polymeropoulos, Douglas Wise, Paul Kolbe, John Sipher, Emile Nakhleh, and Gerald O’Shea, maintain that their actions were “patriotic.”
“There continues to be by many a calculated or woefully ignorant interpretation of the October 2020 letter signed by fifty-one former intelligence officials concerning Hunter Biden’s laptop,” their lawyer told Fox News.
He argued that the letter was merely a warning about potential foreign interference, which, while technically true, grossly misrepresented the situation to the American public.
Greg Treverton, former chair of the National Intelligence Council, showed no remorse, stating, “This is very old news. What we said was true, we were inferring from our experience, and it did look like a Russian operation. We didn’t, and couldn’t of course say it was a Russian operation. Enough said.”
Similarly, Russ Travers, former National Counterterrorism Center director, dismissed the scandal, claiming it was “addressed… several years ago.”
Such statements underscore a troubling lack of accountability among those who played pivotal roles in shaping a false narrative that influenced the outcome of a presidential election.
The refusal of these former intelligence officials to acknowledge their mistake undermines public trust in the intelligence community and raises concerns about the politicization of national security.
The Hunter Biden laptop story was not just about the personal failings of a presidential candidate’s son; it was about potential corruption and conflicts of interest that could compromise national security.
The disinformation label effectively suppressed a critical discussion about these issues, shielding Joe Biden from scrutiny during a crucial election period.
As more information comes to light, it is crucial for Americans to remain vigilant and discerning about the sources of their information and the motivations behind them.
