A few weeks after presidential son, Hunter Biden was found guilty on all three charges in his federal firearms trial, a bombshell congressional report has exposed that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) collaborated with President Joe Biden's campaign in 2020 to downplay Hunter's "laptop from hell" scandal. The CIA worked with the Biden campaign to undermine the laptop allegation, according to a committee report released on June 25. The said "cooperation" managed to make the "laptop from hell" controversy be dismissed as "Russian disinformation" so as not to become a "handicap" to his father's candidacy as president. The House Judiciary Committee report asserted some significant facts about the CIA's role in the 2020 election. First is that high-ranking CIA officials, up to and including then-CIA Director Gina Haspel, were made aware of the Hunter Biden statement before its approval and publication. Senior CIA leadership had an opportunity at that time to slow down the CIA's process for reviewing publication submissions and ensure that such an extraordinary statement was properly vetted. Some of the statement's signatories, including former CIA Deputy Director Michael Morell, were on active contract with the CIA at the time of the Hunter's statement's publication. Throughout the Committees' investigation, the signatories claimed to not have had access to any classified information when asserting that the allegations surrounding the laptop had "all the hallmarks" of Russian disinformation. However, at the time of the statement's publication, at least two signatories, Morell and former CIA Inspector General David Buckley, were on the CIA's payroll as contractors. This raised integrity issues in American elections and the extent of political manipulation within top intelligence agencies. Morell was the one who organized a letter, which called the reporting on Hunter's laptop "Russian disinformation" ahead of the election, after a call from now-Secretary of State Antony Blinken. He said he did it to give Biden a "talking point" in the lead-up to the 2020 election when former President Donald Trump attacked him for the laptop that was later verified to be his son's. Back then, 51 former spies signed the said letter. "The signatories' decision to leverage their former intelligence community titles to promote a narrative about foreign election interference improperly embroiled the [CIA] in domestic politics," the report stated, adding that it "underscores the potential dangers of a politicized intelligence community." Now, Republicans are demanding retribution on these 51 intel contractors, saying they should be fired, criminally prosecuted and thrown in jail. "I think, one, their clearances need to be revoked," Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL) told the Daily Mail in an exclusive interview during congressional baseball practice. "I think there needs to be an investigation into every single one of them." Cammack continued: "We know that the intel community never operates in absolutes and the fact that we had 51 come forward and try to put forward a narrative that this was disinformation, misinformation when everyone knew full well that it wasn't, that it was very real." She said the revelation is evidence of the weaponization and politicization of the Department of Justice.

Intel contractors who colluded with the Biden campaign show no remorse

Dozens of former intelligence contractors who signed the letter warning Hunter's laptop was Russian disinformation are either declining to retract or doubling down despite the device being entered as evidence during Hunter's criminal trial. Fox News Digital reached out to all 51 individuals who signed the October 2020 letter to ask if they regretted signing it.

"No," former President Barack Obama's Director of National Intelligence James Clapper said, declining to publicly remove his name from the letter or concede that those signing onto it should have waited longer for more information to develop. Mark S. Zaid, an attorney representing signatories Ronald Marks, Marc Polymeropoulos, Douglas Wise, Paul Kolbe, John Sipher, Emile Nakhleh and Gerald O'Shea, sent a statement on behalf of his clients that doubled down on the importance of the letter and claimed it was "patriotic" to sign it. Greg Treverton, a signatory who previously served as chair of the National Intelligence Council, defended the letter in a statement. "What we said was true, we were inferring from our experience, and it did look like a Russian operation. We didn't, and couldn't of course say it was a Russian operation. Enough said," he stated. Former CIA Director Michael Hayden hung up the phone when contacted by Fox and did not respond to a follow-up text and email. Meanwhile, former CIA chief of staff Larry Pfeiffer declined to comment, and former National Counterterrorism Center National Director Russ Travers said, "These issues were addressed… several years ago."
