The DOJ and FBI have been accused of burying the Hunter Biden laptop information prior to the 2020 election.

NEW: Multiple “highly credible” FBI whistleblowers have come forward to senior Senate Republican @ChuckGrassley alleging widespread effort to downplay or discredit negative information about the President 's son Hunter Biden, according to letters @CBSNews https://t.co/hw5kGiTFVv pic.twitter.com/xAgMcpdXMu

The letter, which you can read in full here, is amazing. It names names, and in my opinion it completely and utterly validates the NY Post’s laptop stories that social media tried to smother. As our long time readers know, we wrote about the laptop multiple times. The rush by the media, social media, and the 51 intelligence “experts” who wrote a major letter claiming the laptop was Russian disinformation sent BIG RED FLAGS flying. 

But it wasn’t enough to turn the tide of Biden’s basement Presidential campaign. Then, suddenly, this spring, we discover that the laptop is as real as we believed and that the information on it is valid. All courtesy of reporting from the New York Times and other major media outlets who unexpectedly decided it’s ok to dunk on Hunter and, by proxy, Joe Biden himself. 

In the correspondence, Grassley cited a 2020 FBI intelligence assessment that was “used by an FBI headquarters team to improperly discredit negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation.” He continued, “Based on allegations, verified and verifiable derogatory information on Hunter Biden was falsely labeled as disinformation.”

In October 2020, one month before the election, “an avenue of derogatory Hunter Biden reporting was ordered closed” by a senior FBI agent at the bureau’s Washington Field office. An earlier letter from Grassley identified the agent as Timothy Thibault.

“[T]he allegations provided to my office appear to indicate that there was a scheme in place among certain FBI officials to undermine derogatory information connected to Hunter Biden by falsely suggesting it was disinformation,” Grassley claimed. 

There’s some pretty interesting names listed in the letter. 

The officials tied to the FBI allegedly falsely labeling accurate info on Hunter Biden as being “disinfo” include Timothy Thibault (potentially violated Hatch Act for his anti-Trump social media posts) & Brian Auten (was involved in Crossfire Hurricane).https://t.co/bzwYj2QvLS

Oh yeah, those two names for sure. Objective investigation from someone deeply involved in Crossfire Hurricane? I don’t think so. As for Thibault, with his anti-Trump social media posts, ones that he was never disciplined for?

This letter from Senator Grassley has been brewing since his previous letter at the end of May. 

Now, Senator Grassley is demanding answers because of the information provided to him by credible whistleblowers.

Second, it has been alleged that in September 2020, investigators from the same FBI HQ
team were in communication with FBI agents responsible for the Hunter Biden information
targeted by Auten’s assessment. The FBI HQ team’s investigators placed their findings with
respect to whether reporting was disinformation in a restricted access sub-file reviewable only by
the particular agents responsible for uncovering the specific information. This is problematic
because it does not allow for proper oversight and opens the door to improper influence.

Grassley has given the DOJ and FBI an August 8 deadline. That’s August 8, 2022. Will the DOJ and FBI comply or will they stonewall? I bet they’ll stonewall. They’ve had LOTS of practice over the years. Heck, they are even stonewalling now on other matters from the Trump Administration. 

Meadows’ memo confirmed prior reporting by Just the News that Trump on Jan. 19, 2021 declassified a binder of hundreds of pages of sensitive FBI documents that show how the bureau used informants and FISA warrants to spy on the Trump campaign and misled both a federal court and Congress about flaws in the evidence they offered to get approval for the investigation.

The declassified documents included transcripts of intercepts made by the FBI of Trump aides, a declassified copy of the final FISA warrant approved by an intelligence court, and the tasking orders and debriefings of the two main confidential human sources, Christopher Steele and Stefan Halper, the bureau used to investigate whether Trump had colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 election.

In the end, multiple investigations found there was no such collusion and that the FBI violated rules and misled the FISA court in an effort to keep the probe going.

What this all boils down to is that yes, the Hunter Biden laptop is real. The information on it (even the pornagraphic parts of it) is real. And all the players involved did their damndest to bury this information in order to prop Demential Joe Biden up. They did this because Trump broke them. 

Now, in the midst of the White House and Administration attempting to gaslight us into believing that this country isn’t dealing with inflation and isn’t in a recession, we find out that the DOJ and FBI did as we surmised and colluded to bury the Hunter Biden laptop and label any story about it as disinformation. 

The problem isn’t Biden, it’s that the so-called “adults in the room” who surround him are children with no self-awareness and a violent allergy to accountability. They are incapable of feigning interest in what concerns normal people, and the public is beginning to sense this indifference. The unusually hostile, contemptuous tone of the Biden Administration is a novelty in our politics and a sign of deep insecurity. The “elites” know that they are not legitimate and that their own corruption is what powers the enduring political appeal of Donald Trump, who appears to be on a glide path to the White House in 2024 despite the establishment’s efforts to make him into a pariah, or even a political prisoner.

Biden IS a problem. So is Hunter, but Matthew Boose is correct. The DC swamp does have a violent allergy to accountability of any kind. So, unless a miracle happens, no one at the FBI or DOJ will be held accountable for the Biden laptop disinformation campaign they unleashed.
