More than 50 former intelligence officials, led by Obama-era Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, have signed an open letter alleging that the newly-released Hunter Biden emails are “Russian disinformation” — even if they are real.
Clapper, who helped push the conspiracy theory that there had been “collusion” between Donald Trump’s presidential campaign and the Russian government, was joined by others — including former CIA Director John Brennan, who also promoted the Russia hoax.
Earlier this month, declassified documents suggested that Brennan had briefed then-President Barack Obama on a plan by Hillary Clinton’ campaign to accused Trump of close ties with Russia, in order to distract from her own scandals.
Politico broke the news of the letter Monday evening, giving it great importance: “More than 50 former senior intelligence officials have signed on to a letter outlining their belief that the recent disclosure of emails allegedly belonging to Joe Biden’s son “has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”

If we are right, this is Russia trying to influence how Americans vote in this election, and we believe strongly that Americans need to be aware of this.
Current Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said Monday that the emails were not part of a Russian disinformation campaign....

"we do not have evidence" ... Typical. But they will accuse anyway and 50 million democrats will believe.
"All the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation," translated from DemocratSpeak, means "is harmful to our party's interests."
If ever a time I was to encourage Hilldog to "drone" somebody, it is these two.
If this is the caliber of their abilty to weigh evidence, evaluate missing data, and interpret possibilities, we now understand why Brennan and Clapper made Pee Wee Herman look like 007.
