Below is my column in The Hill on the recent disclosure that the organizer of the infamous "Russian Disinformation" letter on the Hunter Biden laptop was prompted by then Biden campaign adviser Antony Blinken. He is, of course, now our Secretary of State and he follows a pattern of the "made men" of the Biden Administration.

Here is the column:

Secretary of State Antony Blinken would really, really prefer to talk about grain in Ukraine this week. But many people are less interested in what Blinken is doing as secretary of state than in what he did to become secretary of state.

This week, Blinken was implicated in a political coverup that could well have made the difference in the 2020 election. According to the sworn testimony of former acting CIA Director Michael Morrell, Blinken – then a high-ranking Biden campaign official – was "the impetus" of the false claim that the Hunter Biden laptop story was really Russian disinformation. Morrell then organized dozens of ex-national security officials to sign the letter claiming that the Hunter laptop story had "all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation."

Morrell further admitted that the Biden campaign "helped to strategize about the public release of the statement."

Finally, he admitted that one of his goals was not just to warn about Russian influence but "to help then-Vice President Biden in the debate and to assist him in winning the election."
