Bombshell email of fmr. CIA chief soliciting Brennan for laptop intel letter scheme to give Biden ammo for debate

Former Obama-era CIA Director Mike Morell admitted in a bombshell email sent in October of 2020 that the infamous “Russian influence operation” letter regarding Hunter Biden’s laptop was purposefully designed to be used as a talking point.

As previously reported, in October of 2022 the New York Post published a bombshell story about Hunter Biden’s laptop. In response, 51 former intelligence officials signed a letter claiming the story was part of a “Russian influence operation.”

The letter was co-written by Morell, partly on behalf of Secretary of State Antony Blinken, which is a separate story.

Here’s where things get interesting: Just The News has obtained an email sent by Morell in October of 2022 to fellow former Obama-era CIA Director John Brennan.

In the email, Morell asked Brennan to sign the letter but also admitted that he’d written it so that then-Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden would have a talking point to use in case then-incumbent President Donald Trump broached Hunter Biden’s laptop during a then-upcoming presidential debate.

“Can I add your name to this list? Will be adding Leon, Sue Gordon, Jeh Johnson, Georgia, Lisa Monaco, and Mike Rogers (DIRNSA) today. And working on adding Dan Coats, Mike Rogers (HPSCI), and Tom Bossert. And lots of other IC career folk,” the email reads.

“Trying to give the campaign, particularly during the debate on Thursday, a talking point to push back on Trump on this issue,” it continues.

Just The News, an outlet started by investigative journalist John Solomon, reports this stunning email exchange “provides damning new proof supporting House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan’s explosive revelation last week that the now-infamous intelligence letter — which was portrayed by news media, fact checkers and Big Tech as an independent and organic initiative by security experts — was in fact a political effort by U.S. spies instigated and assisted by Biden’s campaign in an effort to influence the 2020 election.”

Yet immediately after Jordan made the accusation, the legacy media, who often function as nothing more than propagandists for the Democrat Party, rushed to ostensibly “debunk” it.

It is actually a straight line. But do go on. https://t.co/ZzRYI6MxBm

The backlash is now building.

“This wasn’t a ‘talking point’ to toss back at Trump, it was a premeditated and admitted lie to the American people designed specifically to deceive and hide the truth. And for what? To help elect a politician? What a steep and sad cost to the soul for such a meager goal,” retired FBI intelligence chief Kevin Brock told Just the News.

Former Assistant Secretary of State Robert “Bobby” Charles, a former Naval Intelligence officer, added that this bombshell revelation could further exacerbate the American people’s growing distrust of the intelligence community.

“The notion that you would just somehow overnight gather 51 intelligence officers to attest to something that was uncorroborated and turns out to be utterly untrue leads you to the question: Why and how did those intelligence officers — most of whom were all Democrats — why did they step up and do that?” he said to Just The News.

“And what these emails seem to be showing us is that it was a coordinated effort to damage the Republican and to defend and to support the Democrat. And that is a scourge on those particular individuals’ reputations. It’s also a scourge on the campaign of Joe Biden,” he added.

Also speaking with Just The News, former FBI agent and whistleblower Kyle Seraphin accused intelligence officials like Morell of being brazen in their actions precisely because there are never any consequences when Democrats act up.

“I think it’s arrogance. And I think it’s the arrogance that we’ve seen from the people who are in the upper reaches of whether the FBI or any other part of the intelligence community. They don’t see anyone falling on this stuff. You know, they’re able to retire, they’re able to walk away from it without any shame, they go get high paid corporate jobs when it ends,” he said.

Members of the public, for their part, are calling for heads to roll:

They are all treasonous traitors and should be arrested immediately. No better than a common thug.

OMG ! This is clear election interference.
All security clearances must be immediately pulled and these people should be arrested.

— C A Mallory (@CAMallory2) May 4, 2023

Every one of those “intelligence officials” should be in prison for election interference and should have their security clearances permanently revoked

Every single one of those intel officials, generals, etc. who lies and signed this letter to influence the 2020 election should be tried for sedition and treason. Every one of them. And imo they should all be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
