President-elect Donald Trump has a day-one plan to punish the 51 intelligence officials who deemed the Hunter Biden laptop “Russian disinformation.”
The “spies who lie” as the New York Post’s scathing cover dubbed them, all claimed that reports on Biden’s infamous laptop contained ” all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” This came ahead of the 2020 election between Trump and President Joe Biden, and many critics believe that the lack of intellectual honesty surrounding the laptop and its contents may have swayed voters. It has since been confirmed by federal authorities that the laptop and its debaucherous contents did indeed belong to the first son, but the intelligence officials are standing by their 2020 letter.
While pictures of Hunter smoking what is believed to be crack with women believed to be prostitutes is fairly unpleasant content, what intrigued people most were the emails implying that Hunter was essentially selling access to his politician father, and cutting him in on deals. Much noise was made over the correspondence and in the end, Biden gave his son a blanket pardon so it’s likely Americans will never know the depth of any potential corruption.
That doesn’t mean, however, that the “spies who lie” aren’t going to receive some form of reprisal. Following his inauguration and return to the Oval Office, Trump will sign a flurry of executive orders including one to strip the 51 intel officials of their security clearances according to a senior administration official.
Mark S. Zaid, an attorney representing seven of the officials, claims there “continues to be by many a calculated or woefully ignorant interpretation of the October 2020 letter.”
“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,” he blustered. “Every patriotic American should have signed that letter.”
Other immediate actions Trump reportedly plans to take include re-instituting the “Stay in Mexico” policy, declaring a national border emergency, “fully unleashing” Alaskan energy, ending “catch and release” and “reestablishing presidential control over the career federal workforce.”
