The 51 former intelligence community officials claimed that a report about Hunter Biden's laptop had "the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation."
President Donald Trump says his administration will move to suspend the security clearances of the more than four dozen former intelligence officials who signed a 2020 letter saying that the Hunter Biden laptop saga bore the hallmarks of a “Russian information operation.
The letters signatories include - former US Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, Former CIA Director Michael Hayden, former US National Security Advisor, John Bolton, former CIA Director John Brennan.
Bolton said that threat “remains today,” pointing to an Iranian plot to assassinate Trump before the 2024 election.
President Donald Trump has revoked government security protection for former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and his top aide, Brian Hook.
Bolton did, however, publish before getting permission to do so, and anyone who has had a security clearance knows that dodging the review is a violation not just of the letter of one’s clearance conditions but also of the norms and instincts inculcated by the culture of national security.
