How the Biden Campaign Organized The 51 Intel Community Liars
It probably won’t matter much in the 2024 presidential election contest, but even some Democrat party propaganda media operations are now reporting on last week’s revelations that officials from the Biden Campaign organized the effort to recruit retired intel community officials to claim the Hunter Biden laptop was “Russian disinformation.” Those Biden campaign officials include current Secretary of State Anthony Blinkin.
And now you know how Blinkin made his bones to end up with that job.
Here’s an excerpt from a Wall Street Journal Op/ed on the matter:
The House Judiciary and Intelligence committees released portions of a deposition transcript exposing the origins of the statement from 51 former U.S. spies declaring that Hunter’s laptop had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” The admission came from Mike Morell, former deputy CIA director under Barack Obama. The letter served its political purpose of giving the media and Joe Biden the opening to dismiss the New York Post’s laptop scoop as Russian disinformation. (The letter and the names of the 51 signers can be read nearby.)
It turns out the Biden campaign was behind the letter. Mr. Morell told Congress under oath that he received a phone call from Antony Blinken on Oct. 17, 2020—three days after the Post published emails from Hunter’s laptop. Mr. Blinken was then a senior adviser to the campaign and is now secretary of State.
According to a letter the House committees sent to Mr. Blinken last week, Mr. Morell said the call was “couched as simply gathering Morell’s reaction to the Post story,” yet it “set in motion the events that led to the issuance of the public statement.”
Committee question to Mr. Morell: “Prior to [Mr. Blinken’s] call, you—you did not have any intent to write this statement?”
Mr. Morell: “I did not.”
The letter says Mr. Morell also “explained that the Biden campaign helped to strategize about the public release of the statement.” Mr. Morell says he then contacted an aide to former CIA director John Brennan to say “the Biden campaign wanted the statement to go to a particular reporter at the Washington Post first and that he should send the statement to the campaign when he sent the letter to the reporter.”
Mr. Morell acknowledged he had two goals with the statement: to “share our concern with the American people,” and to “help Vice President Biden” “win the election.”

It’s important to note that even Democrat mouthpiece media platforms like CBS, NBC, the New York Times and Politico have all put out reports on the story. In a just society, Blinkin would be hounded by the media like Scooter Libby was during the George W. Bush administration, and the attorney general would appoint a special counsel to investigate his role and the roles of the 51 signatories to the letter that pushed one of the most heinous public hoaxes in U.S. history and without question impacted the outcome of the 2020 presidential election.
