Signatories of Hunter Biden laptop letter get plum jobs after pumping disinformation into election

While the American public was misinformed about Hunter Biden's laptop in a 2020 letter signed by former intelligence officials – who used their job titles to add credibility to their claims – some of them have since landed plum jobs, including working with the federal government.

Just weeks before the 2020 presidential election, 51 ex-high ranking intelligence officials signed a letter insinuating the Hunter Biden laptop was "Russian disinformation" after The New York Post reported on the laptop days earlier. The Post report mentioned how Hunter had abandoned his laptop at a Delaware computer repair shop and had emails regarding his business dealings.

The letter was "triggered" by Secretary of State Antony Blinken, then a Joe Biden campaign adviser, and its organizer, former Acting CIA Director Michael Morell, wanted to create a "talking point" to help Biden win the last presidential debate of 2020 and beat Donald Trump in the election.

Former Attorney General William Barr told conservative radio show host Hugh Hewitt in March 2022 that “given how close the election was,” the letter “probably affected the outcome, or at least there is a very distinct probability of that.”

In October 2020, Twitter locked The Post's account over the revelation of Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop, and on Facebook, stories linking to the Post's story were also blocked by the tech giants. The move came after The Post refused Twitter’s demand that it delete six tweets that linked to laptop-related stories that the Twitter claimed — without any evidence — were based on "hacked information", the Post said.

Major newspapers, mostly left-leaning, refused to report on the laptop, many using the letter as "proof" the laptop was fake...

The fraud will be evident once again and they’ll get away with it as long as there is mail-in/drop box ballot depositories.

But there is no evidence of a quid pro quo. A payoff after the favor is rendered is not evidence of an agreement before the favor was rendered, except maybe in contract law or something.

Just weeks before the now-disputed 2020 presidential election, 51 ex-high ranking intel officials signed a letter asserting the Hunter Biden laptop was “Russian disinformation.”

Top-notch reporting by the New York Post days earlier revealed how crackhead Hunter, AWOL, probably on a drug-fueled binge, had abandoned his laptop at a Delaware computer repair shop.

The NY Post diligently reported its findings-—that Hunter’s laptop contained emails with irrefutable evidence regarding his lucrative, influence-peddling business dealings.

Despite the Post’s powerful reports, major newspapers, mostly left-leaning, refused to report on the laptop, many convinced the 51 signatories to the letter were “proof” the laptop was “fake.”

This was timed to give candidate Biden a major “talking point” as he debated Trump.

this was fraud, treason, and conspiracy
to steal an ELECTION.

They would have hanged for stealing a horse,
but here they destroyed the Republic,
and should be boiled in acid.

In March 2023, The laser-focused New York Post asked the 51 former intelligence officials if they regretted signing the now-disproven letter.

While most didn’t respond, some stubbornly stood by the letter’s false premise, and none of them expressed regret for signing it.

Clapper soft-pedaled the impact of the letter, telling The Washington Post in February that “Politico deliberately distorted” the letter. “All we were doing was raising a yellow flag that this could be Russian disinformation,” he said.

Politico firmly stood by its report, saying, “The article fairly and accurately reported on — and summarized — the intelligence officials’ letter.”

“”Major newspapers, mostly left-leaning, refused to report on the laptop, many using the letter as “proof” the laptop was fake””

So they lied.

Shocking.

Prog will wake up lying about what they want for breakfast.

Americans were deceived about Hunter Biden’s “laptop from hell” in a 2020 letter signed
by 51 former US intel officials – who used their job titles to add credibility to their claims.

Some of these deceivers have been amply rewarded for protecting Joe Biden’s beloved son,
crackhead Hunter, and have landed plum tax-paid govt jobs, working with Biden’s government.

They don’t like Trump, which means any wrongdoing, crime, treason, or felony, is all in good measure.
