Ex-CIA Chief Says Blinken Spurred Bid To Discredit Hunter Biden Laptop Story

In a bombshell revelation, the former head of the CIA, Mike Morell, confessed that he had been asked by current Secretary of State Antony Blinken, then a senior member of the Biden 2020 presidential campaign, to help discredit the story of Hunter Biden’s laptop computer.

Morell, who served as CIA director at various times between 2010-2013, told the House Judiciary Committee, headed by Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), that he coordinated a letter signed by 51 former intelligence officials that claimed The New York Post’s disclosure of emails allegedly belonging to Hunter Biden — which CNN dismissed as a “dubious story” —  had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” That letter, titled, “Hunter Biden story is Russian disinfo, dozens of former officials say,” was published in POLITICO only days after news of the laptop was reported.
