As the Washington Examiner reported:
A former top CIA official who helped write and sign the infamous October 2020 Hunter Biden laptop letter baselessly claiming Russian involvement has testified a phone call with now-Secretary of State Antony Blinken “triggered”
its creation.
Mike Morell, a former acting CIA director under President Barack Obama, said in a recent transcribed interview with congressional investigators that, before his Oct. 17 phone call with Blinken, he had no intention to write the Oct. 19 Hunter Biden laptop letter. He testified “yes” and “absolutely” when asked if the call with Blinken, who was then a top adviser for Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign, was what “triggered that intent in you.”
Morell also testified that one of the two reasons he helped put the letter together was to help Joe Biden defeat former President Donald Trump.
As I noted elsewhere, it’s also worth mentioning that Blinken arguably has the strongest connection to George Soros of any member of Team Biden. Antony’s father, Donald Blinken, and his wife, Vera, funded the Vera and Donald Blinken Open Society Archives at Central European University, which houses a digital collection of Hungarian historical documents. In one Soros Foundations Network report from 2002, Donald Blinken is listed on the Board of Trustees for CEU third after Soros (the chair) and Aryeh Neier, implying he’s high in the pecking order.
This news comes in the wake of an IRS whistleblower coming forward to allege misconduct in the Hunter Biden tax probe. Attorney Mark Lytle, who is representing the whistleblower-to-be, told CBS that his client wants to come forward to congress and be questioned about what he knows under proper legal protections. Specifically, Lytle says his client will speak out about allegations that the Hunter investigation has been stymied by “preferential treatment and politics.”
Lytle said that this whistleblower would “contradict sworn testimony to Congress by a senior political appointee” - the identity of which the New York Post later confirmed is Attorney General Merrick Garland.
