Joe Biden’s presidential campaign prompted former acting CIA director Mike Morell to “help Biden” by organizing 50 colleagues to sign a letter in October 2020 falsely claiming that damning emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop published by The Post were Russian disinformation.
In private sworn testimony, Morell told the House Judiciary Committee that Antony Blinken, now Secretary of State, was the senior campaign official who reached out to him “on or before” Oct. 17, 2020, three days after The Post published an email from the laptop suggesting Hunter had introduced his Ukrainian business partner to his father, then vice-president Biden.
Morell, identified as a potential CIA director under Biden, said he organized the letter to “help Vice President Biden … because I wanted him to win the election.”
Until Blinken’s call, Morell told House investigators that he had no intention of writing any statement exonerating Biden.
But he agreed that the conversation with Blinken “triggered … that intent” in him.
At 10.53 p.m. the night of the call, Blinken emailed Morell a USA Today article claiming that the FBI was examining whether Hunter’s laptop was part of a “disinformation campaign.”
At the bottom of Blinken’s email was the signature block of Andrew Bates, then-director of rapid response for the Biden campaign.
Morell said he did “a little bit of my own research,” and then reached out to retired CIA senior operations officer Marc Polymeropoulos for assistance in compiling the letter discrediting The Post’s reporting.
Over the next two days, Morell gathered signatures from 51 former intelligence officials, including himself and four other former CIA directors, including John Brennan and Leon Panetta.

Nothing to see here....move along!
I’m not so sure this one is going away for a while.
After all, elections have consequences.
Isn’t that what the Demonrats tell us all the time?
Maybe if Nasty Piglousy hadn’t have been such an A$$ she wouldn’t have lost control of the House.
Good question.
Ron DeSantis would not play golf with any of those evil RINOS.
Exactly, nothing will happen.
p
I'd call it a gentle nudge, as they do on subway platforms. Biden could be under the daisies by November of '24 anyway, and Pres. Harris would be on the ballot.
Even Biden knows he's not running, he just doesn't want to be a lame duck.
Biden doesn’t know what day it is or where he is when he wakes up in the morning.
All his mind can focus on is ICE CREAM.
I can’t believe that he actually thinks the Demonrats will pull out all the stops to steal him another election.
You might be on to something that he might be pushing up daisies by ‘24.
Neither was the Best with the Yeast's, yet the media was in full CHA mode in 2016 for her.

Remember, the 2020 election was totally not rigged.
All that happened was Joe Biden’s campaign led by Antony Blinken knowingly disseminated false information to the public by getting 50 former intelligence officials to write a letter saying that a true story about his family profiting off foreign money was “Russian disinfo,” which the corporate media reported without question.
Totally normal. Totally legitimate.
In fact if you even suggest that a presidential campaign working with Deep State spooks to knowingly disseminate false information to the public with full support from the press is rigging and stealing an election, you’re a dangerous insurrectionist.

Bawhahahahaha!!!!
Isn’t this illegal?
Isn’t this a felony?
Isn’t this an impeachable offense?.................
Yes, to all of the above!
Since it’s obvious the rotten DOJ is t going to do anything about this, maybe take a page from the Dems favorite DA and have Republican state AG’s file a civil class-action suit to include all the Congressional races that could have been impacted by the letter.
There is statistical data that show there were enough voters who wouldn’t have voted for Biden had they known about the laptop. Enough voters to have changed the outcome of the election.
Go after the Biden campaign, the DNC, Blinken, and every one of the signers.
At worst, it was election interference or unlawful campaign contributions.
Time we start playing hardball.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer?
This is stealing an election.
I wish folks wouldn’t give Biden such a hard time; as Democrats go it is pretty tame. It’s not like he used the CIA to assassinate a sitting president.
