Trump To Suspend Security Clearances of 51 Intelligence Officials Who Claimed Hunter Biden’s Laptop Contents Was ‘Russian Disinformation’

Jan. 20—Sources close to incoming President Donald Trump said that among his first acts as President today will be to sign an executive order that will suspend security clearances for the 51 signers of the infamous “Spies Who Lie” letter that falsely claimed that content found on the laptop of President Joe Biden’s son Hunter, abandoned in a computer repair shop in 2019, had “the classic earmarks of Russian disinformation.”

 The 51 officials, none of whom will admit to their lying on behalf of Biden and his son, and against Trump, include such top officials as former CIA Director John Brennan, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former CIA Director Leon Panetta, and former CIA Director Michael Hayden.

 In 2019, before the issuance of the letter in 2020 during the Presidential campaign, the FBI had verified that the laptop belonged to Hunter Biden. A source contacted yesterday said that the letter demonstrated “the total politicization and corruption of the highest levels of the U.S. intelligence community. That high ranking and other intelligence officers would lend their authority to a political lie, speaks exactly to what President Trump has pledged to clean-up, and has given [former Congresswoman and army intelligence officer] Tulsi Gabbard the job of doing.” Gabbard is Trump's nominee for Director of National Intelligence.

 “It is a critical assignment” said the source, “as the military-intelligence-financial complex, completely infiltrated by NATO assets, intends to fight President Trump as he attempts to set a course away from confrontation and possible war with China and Russia—wars which this crew supports.”

 Hunter Biden’s laptop and its email trove contained solid evidence of Joe Biden, as Vice President, working for the benefit of his son’s foreign business associates and clients, including in the Ukraine—a charge which the elder Biden vehemently denies. On Dec. 1, 2024, now as President, Joe Biden pardoned his “former” drug-addict son of a conviction on gun charges, which conviction was obtained with help of evidence from the laptop.

 In part, the letter was intended to counter the effects of reporting in the New York Post, which had been given a copy of the contents of the laptop’s hard drive, including its email messages. It was the Post that labeled the 51 letter signers as “Spies Who Lie.”

 Last year, when Fox News did a story on the laptop, they asked each of the 51 to comment. No one would make one.

 However, Mark Zaid, an attorney representing the “Spies Who Lie,” tried some damage control, offering the following bizarre interpretation of their action: “It served as nothing more than a warning letter of what we have known for decades: certain foreign governments—including Russia—continue to try and actively interfere in our domestic affairs and our guard must remain vigilant. Every patriotic American should have signed that letter.”
