Members of a House Judiciary Committee subcommittee say they now have gotten confirmation that the then-CIA chief, Gina Haspel, likely knew about a leftist plot to have intel officers issue a statement that that laptop computer abandoned by Hunter Biden was "Russian" disinformation before it happened.
The committee reported Tuesday that its information shows those CIA elements "Colluded with the Biden campaign."
"We knew that the rushed statement from the 51 former intelligence officials was a political maneuver between the Biden campaign and the intelligence community. Now with this interim report, we reveal how officials at the highest levels of the CIA were aware of the statement and CIA employees knew that several of the so-called former officials were on active contract with the CIA. The report underscores the risks posed by a weaponized federal government," explained committee chief Jim Jordan.
Mike Turner, chairman of the House Intel Committee, added, "The House Intelligence Committee's work provided us with solid direct evidence that in the final weeks before the 2020 presidential election, 51 former intelligence officials coordinated with the Biden campaign to falsely cast doubt on an explosive New York Post story and label Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop as 'Russian disinformation.' The committee worked to obtain classified documents from the CIA, including emails, and fought to include evidence of these materials in our report."
The congressional report explains "How the highest levels of the Central Intelligence Agency, up to and including then-CIA Director Gina Haspel, were made aware of the 'Public Statement on the Hunter Biden Emails' by 51 former intelligence officials prior to its approval and publication. The report reveals important new facts, such as how some of the statement's signatories, including former Deputy CIA Director Michael Morell, were on active contract with the CIA at the time they issued the Hunter Biden statement to discredit damaging allegations about Biden family influence peddling just weeks before the 2020 presidential election."
The report from Congress explained on October 14, 2020, the New York Post published a report "Detailing how Hunter Biden used the position and influence of his father, now-President Joe Biden, for personal gain with the apparent awareness of President Biden. Five days later, on October 19, 2020, 51 former intelligence officials signed on to a public statement that stated that the Hunter Biden laptop story had 'all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation,' in an attempt to discredit the New York Post's reporting."
The new reporting confirms that the highest officials in the CIA knew of the "Disinformation" statement as it was being developed.
