The MSM is still trying to say Hunters laptop is disinformation... Former top intel chiefs silent after Musk Twitter disclosures By Jon Levine December 3, 2022 1:10pm America’s top former intelligence officials were mostly mum Saturday after the release of internal Twitter documents detailing how The Post’s bombshell revelations were censored by the social media company. Leon Panetta, a former CIA director and defense secretary, John Brennan a former CIA director, Mike Hayden, a former CIA director, and Jim Clapper, a former director of national intelligence — who all once said The Post’s reporting had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation,” — declined or did not respond to request for comment about whether the latest disclosures had changed their opinion. A public statement was made in regard to the Hunter Biden emails.The quartet made their allegations as part of an open letter denigrating The Post’s reporting as Russian misinformation which was signed by dozens of other longtime intelligence hands. “Our experience makes us deeply suspicious that the Russian government played a significant role in this case,” the letter read. “If we are right, this is Russia trying to influence how Americans vote in this election, and we believe strongly that Americans need to be aware of this.” Of the four, only Clapper has ever publicly addressed the letter, offering a vigorous defense to The Post in March.

Now it’s being decided by the richest man on Earth with an axe to grind against one political party — a true scandal,” Collins mocked.
