They are the supposed nonpartisan group of top spies looking out for the best interest of the nation.
But the 51 former “intelligence” officials who cast doubt on The Post’s Hunter Biden laptop stories in a public letter really were just desperate to get Joe Biden elected president. And more than a year later, even after their Deep State sabotage has been shown again and again to be a lie, they refuse to own up to how they undermined an election.
No one actually proved The Post’s reporting was wrong. Media outlets showed up at the doorstep of the computer repairman who had gotten the laptop, and he confirmed it. People who exchanged e-mails with Hunter Biden attested to their accuracy in the days and weeks that followed.
Only after the election was safely over did Hunter tacitly admit the laptop was his. Last year, a Politico reporter confirmed that the laptop’s materials were real. And now, the coup de grace: The Times said it’s “authenticated” material from the laptop.
There have been no consequences. Twitter and Facebook still censor information based on political bias, and Congress takes no action. Many of the letter signers continue to be used as “experts” by the media. Clapper, for instance, spent years on CNN calling Donald Trump a “Russian asset,” a lie invented and fed by political operatives of Hillary Clinton. He’s still there. Guess accuracy is not a condition of employment.
Do the officials who tried to flip the 2020 election feel any regret for their actions? The Post reached out to those who signed the letter. Most would answer the question. A few doubled-down, including Clapper. No remorse. No shame. And no apologies:
Mike Hayden, former CIA director, now analyst for CNN: Didn’t respond.

How about the FBICIADHSDNI folks who spied on candidate and then president DJT. Jail or gallows? I opt for the latter. Hell actually I will volunteer to trip the trap door latch.
Good article; thanks for the link.
Why would they apologize..they said what they said on purpose knowing it would hurt Trump who they despise more than anything in the whole wide world..They knew Hunter’s laptop was real, full of videos of him raping children and having sex with prostitutes, they knew, heck I bet most of those same agents have done it themselves..so gotta protect their own
Clapper lied directly to Congress and was not held to account. ANY document that man signs is false - count on it.
CIA spies lying to America on behalf of the deep state, it’s what they do, why apologize.
I must congratulate the N.Y. Post on a superb job of reporting. Based on the published article they attempted to contact ever single signee of the original phony petition. They rarely succeeded but we have the scum bags to thank for that.
When I was a kid we called this “reporting”. In spades in this case.
Id advise them to not waste their nor our time - their apology wouldn’t be accepted. Just make a list and remind us who they are every now and then.
Especially when they resurface as paid ‘experts’ on TV.
The answer is to Criminally Charge and Prosecute every one of them for making an ILLEGAL In Kind Political Contribution, which is a FELONY
If these are government intelligent sources, the case could be made that they have violated the Hatch Act.
Liars
Our “intelligence services” are totally corrupt, the Congress is totally corrupt, the DOJ is totally corrupt, the vipers controlling the WH are totally corrupt.
Being exposed doesn’t matter. Only one thing matters.
Keep the list for future reference.😎
- Don Hepburn, former national security executive, now president of Boanerges Solutions LLC: “My position has not changed any. I believe the Russians made a huge effort to alter the course of the election . . . The Russians are masters of blending truth and fiction and making something feel incredibly real when it’s not. Nothing I have seen really changes my opinion. I can’t tell you what part is real and what part is fake, but the thesis still stands for me, that it was a media influence hit job.”
- Jonna Hiestand Mendez, former CIA technical operations officer, now on board of the International Spy Museum: “I don’t have any comment. I would need a little more information.”
- Emile Nakhleh, former director of CIA’s Political Islam Strategic Analysis Program, now at University of New Mexico: “I have not seen any information since then that would alter the decision behind signing the letter. That’s all I can go into. The whole issue was highly politicized and I don’t want to deal with that. I still stand by that letter.”
- Greg Treverton, former National Intelligence Council chair, now senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies: “I’ll pass. I haven’t followed the case recently.”
43-7 "no response" or "no comment". A few of those 7 amount to "no comment".
Thanks.
In the Roman days everyone one of these would be rounded up and done- you know what to- once a new regime came to power. Voting for the same old same old (D v R) isn’t working anymore.....
