While the American public was misinformed about Hunter Biden's laptop in a 2020 letter signed by former intelligence officials – who used their job titles to add credibility to their claims – some of them have since landed plum jobs, including working with the federal government.
Just weeks before the 2020 presidential election, 51 ex-high ranking intelligence officials signed a letter insinuating the Hunter Biden laptop was "Russian disinformation" after The New York Post reported on the laptop days earlier. The Post report mentioned how Hunter had abandoned his laptop at a Delaware computer repair shop and had emails regarding his business dealings.
The letter was "triggered" by Secretary of State Antony Blinken, then a Joe Biden campaign adviser, and its organizer, former Acting CIA Director Michael Morell, wanted to create a "talking point" to help Biden win the last presidential debate of 2020 and beat Donald Trump in the election.
Former Attorney General William Barr told conservative radio show host Hugh Hewitt in March 2022 that “given how close the election was,” the letter “probably affected the outcome, or at least there is a very distinct probability of that.”
