Former CIA Deputy Director Michael Morrell testified to the House Judiciary Committee that an intel letter signed by 51 officials casting down on the Hunter Biden laptop story was “triggered” by conversations from the the Biden campaign.
Groups and experts that study disinformation did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s questions about whether the campaign used misinformation practices.
“The silence of so-call ‘disinformation experts’ ropes them into the clown show as well,” Tom Jones, American Accountability Foundation president, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “When these elites wonder why the American people don’t trust them anymore, perhaps they should look in the mirror.”
Experts on disinformation are staying silent after news broke that the Biden campaign prompted a letter signed by 51 intelligence officers that cast doubt on the Hunter Biden laptop story ahead of the 2020 presidential election.
Former CIA Deputy Director Michael Morrell testified to the House Judiciary Committee that the letter, which likened the laptop story to a “Russian information operation,” was “triggered” by conversations with Biden campaign Senior Advisor and now-Secretary of State Anthony Blinken. Several groups and individuals dedicated to studying and exposing “disinformation” did not respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s repeated request for comment about whether the campaign partook in misinformation practices and whether or not people should be skeptical of previous attempts to suppress the story.
“Joe Biden – or perhaps more accurately, Joe Biden’s handlers – organized one of the biggest election year disinformation campaigns since Hillary Clinton’s absurd attempt just a few years earlier. Democrats are making an absolute mockery of the US intelligence community, think tanks, security experts, Big Tech, and the media, trying to bury their own corruption. We now know what a joke they’ve become,” American Accountability Foundation President Tom Jones told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “The silence of so-call ‘disinformation experts’ ropes them into the clown show as well. When these elites wonder why the American people don’t trust them anymore, perhaps they should look in the mirror.”
