And you never really read the article did you?
More than 50 former intelligence officials signed a letter casting doubt on the provenance of a New York Post story on the former vice president’s son.
“has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”
While the letter’s signatories presented no new evidence, they said their national security experience had made them “deeply suspicious that the Russian government played a significant role in this case” and cited several elements of the story that suggested the Kremlin’s hand at work.
“We want to emphasize that we do not know if the emails, provided to the New York Post by President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, are genuine or not and that we do not have evidence of Russian involvement,” the letter reads. But, it continues, “there are a number of factors that make us suspicious of Russian involvement.”
All opinions and they even stated that they did not know if the emails were fake or legitimate.
Again they can not be prosecuted for expressing their opinions. If that were the case then Donald Trump would have been arrested years ago for his lies.

Shock Poll: 8 in 10 Think Biden Laptop Cover-Up
Changed Election
Most following the story want the AG to appoint a Special Counsel to
investigate the laptop-related issues

A whopping 79 percent of Americans suggest President Donald Trump
likely would have won reelection if voters had known the truth about
Hunter Bidenʼs laptop—that it was real and not “Russian disinformation,” as
intelligence ocials aligned with Joe Biden falsely led the public to
believe, a new national poll reveals.
The survey of 1,335 adults was conducted earlier this month by New Jersey-
based Technometrica Institute of Policy and Politics. The vast majority of
those following the issue said they believe that the laptop is real, while
only 11 percent still believe it was created by Russia.
The Washington Post and The New York Times recently conrmed that the
laptop and contents found on it are, in fact, authentic, aer initially pooh-
poohing the idea the device belonged to the presidentʼs son. In October
2020, the New York Post broke the story that Hunter Biden had abandoned
the Apple computer at a Wilmington, Del., repair shop. The newspaper
exposed emails from the hard drive indicating the Biden family may have
participated in illicit business deals in Ukraine, China, and other
countries. Social media censored the story, denying voters critical
information on the eve of the election.
Among those following the topic, almost three-quarters (74 percent)
believe that the FBI and Intelligence Community deliberately misled the
public—and voters—when they claimed the laptop was “disinformation”
and part of a Kremlin plot to hurt Bidenʼs candidacy.
On Oct. 19, 2020, more than 50 former U.S. intelligence ocials, including
CIA Director John Brennan, signed a public letter claiming the material
published by the Post from Hunterʼs hard drive “has all the classic
earmarks of a Russian information operation,” although none of them had
seen it.
Joe Biden cited their letter in the presidential debates to deflect
questions about the laptop.
“Terming the laptop ʻdisinformationʼ by the FBI, Intelligence Community,
Congress, and the Biden campaign, along with Big Tech, impacted voters,”
said Technometrica President Raghavan Mayur, whoʼs been recognized as
the most accurate pollster in recent presidential elections. “A signicant
majority—78 percent—believe that access to the correct information could
have been critical to their decision at the polls.
In fact, 47 percent said that knowing before the election that the laptop
contents were real and not “disinformation” would have changed their
voting decision—
including more than two-thirds (71 percent) of
Democrats.
