ANDREW McCARTHY: FBI’s Role in Hunter Biden Laptop Scandal Is Worse Than You Know

Hunter Biden’s infamous ‘laptop from hell’ may be the most damning evidence linking the (sleeping) President of the United States to the more than $27 million his family amassed by selling his influence policy to corrupt agents and anti- The American regimes, in particular, the communist regime of Xi Jinping in China.

Still, the laptop’s lasting relevance isn’t all that important Biden history, but as a history of the political corruption of the government’s security and intelligence apparatus – the pillars of our rule of law and our national security.

Consider this: the FBI took possession of the laptop in December 2019 and quickly authenticated it, not difficult to do because there was a mountain of publicly available information to corroborate the data, which was indisputably by Hunter Biden.

IT’S THE 4TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIGGEST MILITIA THAT THE BIDEN-HARRIS ADMINISTRATION HAS EVER SAID. It has only gotten worse

What is the significance of this? Well, Election Day wasn’t until November 3, 2020. So even though early voting was already underway in the weeks leading up to the election, the FBI had already known for almost a year that the laptop was the real deal.

Despite this, the office induced major social media titans, including Twitter (now X) and Facebook, to delete disparaging reports about the Bidens, specifically the New York Post’s mid-October 2020 reports on the laptop. how By misleadingly implying that the Post’s reports were likely the result of an influence operation carried out by Russian intelligence.

In reality, this was an influence operation carried out by current and former US intelligence officials. The FBI was not alone.

The government’s “Intelligence Community” routinely shares information. The IC, too, is prone to promoting Russian “interference” in the US election. However, these “influence operations” are long-standing: Moscow interfered in American politics during the Cold War; it has continued to do so since the fall of the Soviet Union until today. Influence operations are also reciprocal: US spy agencies routinely sought to influence Soviet policy and now seek to undermine Putin. If they didn’t, what good would they do?

For all the heavy breathing of the media-democrat complex, modern Russia is a basket case country run by a mafia-style regime whose electoral influence operations are often laughably amateurish. Moreover, they are an insignificant influence in the multibillion-dollar ocean of American campaign messaging.

HUNTER BIDEN LAPTOP RE-RESURCES AS MEDIA REVENGE As it becomes key evidence in gun trial.

As a national security agency specializing in foreign counterintelligence, the FBI is a critical component of IC. The CI is led by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), part of whose primary mission is to ensure that intelligence is shared across the community, including, of course, with the CIA, which combats foreign threats to American interests. If the FBI knew the laptop was genuine, not a product of Russian intelligence, so did the IC.

However, it was IC veterans, led by former officials who had held the highest positions in the Obama-Biden CIA and ODNI, who generated the notorious election eve. letter in which 51 of these officials strove to trick voters into impeaching the publicationThe team’s laptop bears “the classic hallmarks of a Russian intelligence operation.” In fact, we now know that this letter was instigated at the suggestion of Antony Blinken – then a Biden-Harris campaign adviser, now secretary of state in the Biden-Harris administration – and that the “classic destinations” line be suggested by James Clapper, the Obama. -Biden Director of National Intelligence.

There was no reason to believe that easily verifiable bank records of suspicious foreign money transfers had been generated by Russian intelligence. However, the FBI worked with Democrats to frame it this way. The office produced an “assessment” on signs of foreign interference in the upcoming 2020 election, which Democrats used to portray Grassley and Johnson as dupes who were doing the Russians’ bidding. (See, for example, this August 13, 2020, The AP report cites the FBI assessment and accuses Johnson of “amplifying” Russian “propaganda.”)
