More than four dozen former foreign and national security officials for the U.S. government called on Biden in a letter Friday to drop out of the presidential race.

"We write as former U.S. officials who have strongly supported your presidency and your initiatives to strengthen U.S. foreign and national security policy," they wrote. "We have welcomed the measures you have taken to promote U.S. alliances in Europe, Asia, and the Americas; to manage relations with great powers; and to address global issues such as climate change. These initiatives have been built on your decades-long record of support for responsible U.S. international engagement."

"We strongly believe that now is the time to pass the mantle of leadership, and we respectfully urge you to do so," they wrote to Biden.

Among the signatories are Richard Clarke, former national coordinator for security and counterterrorism, and Anthony Lake, who served as national security adviser to President Bill Clinton.

Yup. “National Security” officials are “Members of the Intelligence Community.” 51 is “more than four dozen.”

Ironic that they tried to kill the wrong presidential candidate. If Biden was shot there would be a huge wave of sympathy for the Democrat candidate.

Operation Get Biden is really Operation Get Trump.

All this means is the alphabet agencies are behind Operation Get Trump, which we knew.

All of them need to be fired and their security clearances revoked. Forbidden from contracting with the fed gov.

It is my understanding he cannot pardon Hunter until he is sentenced. Obviously, he doesnt trust anyone in the party would follow thru with such a promise. He has to stay in.

sounds to me like exactly the same 51 CIA clucks that wrote their letter claiming Hunter’s laptop was russkie misinformation ... they’re at it again, but this time desperately trying to throw the guy they originally supported under the bus because they don’t want to go down in flames with him ...

They’re PO’d because Biden f*&&ked up once more (the assassination fell through). That was the last straw. And what’s more, they now have to worry about what an ascendant Trump will do.

But first, they’ll take care of business with Biden. Then plan on how to deal with Trump.

I hope one minute after President Trump finishes taking the oath of office, he revokes their security clearances!

Sure, but 51 is their witchcraft number. It’s the number by which they’re mind controlled by their own witchcraft.

The official number of signatures to be legitimate is 51.

They set the standard.

Four dozen? Almost 51, like the letter saying the Hunter story was “Russian disinformation.”

“If Biden was shot there would be a huge wave of sympathy for the Democrat candidate.”

1964 all over again. A huge national sob for the Democrats. What a disaster that was for us.

HuffPost first revealed the text of the letter on Thursday evening.
“Donald Trump’s vision, approach, and expressed intentions concerning our nation’s security are in fundamental conflict with the values and principles for which you have stood ... We strongly believe that now is the time to pass the mantle of leadership and we respectfully urge you to do so,” the message continues.
The message cites Biden’s accomplishments abroad in Europe, Asia and the Americas and on international challenges like climate change.
