On
March 16, 2021, the Intelligence Community issued its Intelligence Community
Assessment on Foreign Threats to the 2020 U.S. Federal Elections.
Based
on that report, some in the liberal media have falsely claimed that my and
Senator Johnson’s Hunter Biden related oversight activities last Congress were
based on Russian disinformation.
Even
Peter Strzok felt the need to chime in on Twitter to say we received Russian
disinformation.
Such
claims are false and misleading.
To
be precise, Senator Johnson and I didn’t receive, solicit or rely upon any
information from Andriy Derkach and we’ve publicly said so many times.
It
seems like Strzok pays just about as careful attention to these facts as he did
the Crossfire Hurricane FISA applications.
Of
course, Twitter lets disinformation about the Steele Dossier run wild on their
platform yet shuts down still-unrefuted reporting on Hunter Biden before the
2020 presidential election.
Talk
about a double standard.
Now,
regarding Russian disinformation, it wasn’t us that dealt in it.
It
was the Democrats. Here’s one quick example. If you want more, read Section 10
of our September 23, 2020, report.
On
July 13, 2020, then-Minority Leader Schumer, Senator Warner, Speaker Pelosi and
Representative Schiff sent a letter, with a classified attachment, to the FBI
to express a purported belief that Congress was the subject of a foreign
disinformation campaign.
The
classified attachment included unclassified elements that attempted – and
failed – to tie our work to Derkach.
Those
unclassified elements were then leaked to the press to support a false campaign
accusing us of using Russian disinformation.
Then,
during the course of our investigation, we ran a transcribed interview of
George Kent.
Before
that interview, the Democrats acquired Derkach’s materials.
During
that interview, they asked the witness about it. He stated, “What you’re asking
me to interpret is a master chart of disinformation and malign influence.”
At
that interview, the Democrats introduced known disinformation into the
investigative record as an exhibit.
More
precisely, the Democrats relied upon and disseminated known disinformation from
a foreign source whom the Intelligence Community warned was actively seeking to
influence U.S. politics.
Yet
they accused me and Senator Johnson of doing that very thing.
Let
that sink in.
It’s
clear that the Democrats hoped that their
self-created disinformation campaign would drown-out our report and its
findings to protect candidate Biden from the facts.
Now that President Biden is in office, the facts aren’t going
anywhere.
As President Biden gears up for his
first press conference, he ought to answer for the fact that his family was –
and possibly still is – financially connected to Chinese nationals with links
to the communist party and the People’s Liberation Army.
Indeed, Hunter Biden reportedly
admitted that he was well aware that some of his business associates were
connected to the communist Chinese government’s intelligence services.
Where is the media in asking serious
questions about that?
It’s also been reported that emails
show Joe Biden and his brother were “office mates” with the very same Chinese
nationals with links to the communist regime and it’s military.
Where is the media in asking serious
questions about that?
Tony Bobulinski publicly stated that
Joe Biden was aware of and possibly involved in Hunter Biden’s business deals.
Where is the media in asking serious
questions about that?
The Biden family transactions and
associations in our September 2020 report raise criminal, counterintelligence and
extortion concerns.
Yet, the liberal media has ignored all
of it and has failed to ask any legitimate questions. Don’t you think “We the
People” have a right to know the answers?
The media certainly seemed to think so during the last administration.
If this story was about Trump, I
guarantee you it would be all over the news.
It’s perfectly legitimate and
reasonable for Congress and the news media to question the Biden administration
about these global financial transactions and associations.
It’s perfectly legitimate to ask how
they could impact the Biden administration’s foreign policy.
That’s especially true as it relates
to China given the extensive links between the Biden family and that country.
Let’s see if anyone dares to ask serious
questions at the president’s first news conference.
