Former CIA director John Brennan has admitted that an infamous letter signed by 51 former intelligence officials that sought to discredit reporting on Hunter Biden‘s laptop ‘was political’.
Brennan, the CIA chief during Obama’s administration, admitted to the House Judiciary Committee investigators in a four-hour closed-door deposition that the letter, which falsely claimed that emails on Hunter Biden’s laptop were Russian disinformation, was ‘political’, Fox News reports.
Both Brennan and Clapper signed a letter by 51 former intelligence officials who claimed Hunter’s laptop had ‘all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation’.
An email shows Brennan agreeing to have his name added to the letter of signatories by the then acting CIA Director Mike Morell.
