In early July the Department of Homeland Security withheld publication of an intelligence bulletin warning law enforcement agencies of a Russian scheme to promote “allegations about the poor mental health” of former Vice President Joe Biden, according to internal emails and a draft of the document obtained by ABC News.
The draft bulletin, titled “Russia Likely to Denigrate Health of US Candidates to Influence 2020 Election,” was submitted to the agency’s legislative and public affairs office for review on July 7. The analysis was not meant for public consumption, but it was set to be distributed to federal, state and local law enforcement partners two days later, on July 9, the emails show.
Just one hour after its submission, however, a senior DHS official intervened.
“Please hold on sending this one out until you have a chance to speak to [acting Secretary of Homeland Security Chad Wolf]," wrote DHS Chief of Staff John Gountanis, according to an email obtained by ABC News.
That was nearly two months ago. But the bulletin was never circulated.

That said, now Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) will accuse anyone who questions Joe's mental acuity of being a traitor in collusion with Russia.
US information warfare is in a class by itself.
Biden is saying that the rioters are in “festival” and that it is the will of Landru.
Not this Russian chit again!
Another BS article it four people to write.
everyone knows, the debates are going to be quite entertaining.
I don’t need no Russians to recognize a demented old fool when I see one.
All anyone has to do is listen to Slow Joe for even 5 minutes without a teleprompter.
Had the report been released the left would be screaming that this was just another Trump attack on Biden.
Had the report been released the left would be screaming that this was just another Trump attack on Biden.
So, it’s all just another Russian hoax! And of course all Joe has to do is show up everyday for a press conference and everybody will be able to see just how sharp and on top of things he is!
So the Russians think the same thing everyone else in the world thinks. Shocking!
How did the Russians find out that Joe is having mental problems?
Who leaked?
Why would the Russians want Trump? Unless it’s because the RATs spent the last 5 years making them the excuse to get Trump. Still, I’d think they want Slow Joe. We know China does.
Deep state actors in the DHS.
There won’t be any debates.
But the article is another attempt by the Deep State to Deep Six Trump.
Wouldn’t it be easy for Biden to disprove those allegations by taking questions at a press conference a time or two?
I still recall the DHS memorandum from 2009, put out by Janet “Big Sis” Napolitano, laying out the 72 indicators of a government subversive and potential terrorist.
Veterans, conservatives, and anyone who opposed The Won factored high.
It’s been largely purged from the Web.
Russia just doing the job the Stooge Media refuses to do.
a six year-old listening to him might ask, “Daddy, what is wrong with that old guy with white hair? He looks like the statues in the stores that clothes. He talks weird”
“That’s just an old, old man whose brain is worn out son. Or his implant is broken”
“What’s an implant?”
uh, never mind.
Sounds like a no win situation.
If DHS had released the “July intelligence bulletin calling out Russian attack on Biden’s mental health” then the Rats and the media (I know I’m being redundant) would have yelled from the roof tops that this proved Russian Trump collusion in trying to get Trump re-elected.
The media is still ignoring Biden’s obvious mental decline.
I call Russian disinformation using reverse psychology to undermine support for Trump and drum up support for Biden.
