o
ne of the 51 intelligence veterans who signed the letter suggesting that Hunter Biden’s laptop was a part of a “Russian disinformation” campaign just admitted that he knew the laptop was genuine at the time of signing the letter.
The letter, released in the days prior to the 2020 presidential election, attempted to discredit the laptop and its origins. However, the contents on the laptop have since been verified as authentic through deep analysis.
During a recent interview with The Australian, former Defense Intelligence Agency deputy director Douglas Wise admitted that him and others knew “a significant portion of that content had to be real.”
“All of us figured that a significant portion of that content had to be real to make any Russian disinformation credible,” he said.
In a letter, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and former CIA Director John Brennan, among others, claimed with no proof that the October 2020 revelation of the laptop story had the characteristics of a Russian disinformation campaign.
