House Judiciary: Internal FBI Chat Logs Show Agency Imposed “Gag Order” on NY Post Story on Hunter Biden’s Laptop the Day It Came Out
The House Judiciary Committee released information back in June 2024 that revealed that CIA contractors colluded with the Biden campaign in 2020 to discredit the Hunter Biden laptop.
In October 2020, just days before the presidential election, 51 former intelligence officials signed and published a letter that baselessly decried the contents of Hunter’s ‘laptop from hell’ had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”
This was a lie. They all knew it was a lie. The fake news media ran with the story anyway that it was some kind of ‘Russian interference’ and they all knew that was a lie, too.
And then NBC fake news journalist Kristen Welker even used the lie during the Trump-Biden debate to bash President Trump. She has never apologized.
On Tuesday, the House JudiciaryCommittee released FBI chat logs that reveal the agency imposed a “gag order” on the NY Post story on Hunter’s laptop to help Joe Biden during the 2020 election.
The FBI agents involved in this massive coverup include the infamous Elvis Chan, Laura Dehmlow, and Bradley Benavides.

These men and women should be indicted for election interference and face justice. Every last one of them!

This proves that top officials at the FBI were working against President Trump in 2020 to swing the election to Joe Biden!
In 2024, the House Judiciary Committee released these details, as reported earlier by Cristina Laila at the time.
● High ranking CIA officials, up to and including then-CIA Director Gina Haspel, were made aware of the Hunter Biden statement prior to its approval and publication. Because several former senior intelligence officials signed the statement, the PCRB sent the draft statement to the CIA’s then-Chief Operating Officer (COO) Andrew Makridis, who said he subsequently informed then-Director Haspel or thenDeputy Director Vaughn Frederick Bishop that the statement would be published soon. Senior CIA leadership had an opportunity at that time to slow down the CIA’s process for reviewing publication submissions and ensure that such an extraordinary statement was properly vetted.
● Some of the statement’s signatories, including Michael Morell, were on active contract with the CIA at the time of the Hunter Biden statement’s publication. Throughout the course of the Committees’ investigation, the signatories claimed to not have had access to any classified information when asserting that the allegations surrounding Hunter Biden’s laptop had “all the hallmarks” of Russian disinformation.
However, at the time of the statement’s publication, at least two signatories—Morell and former CIA Inspector General David Buckley—were on the CIA’s payroll as contractors. Due to purported operational concerns, the CIA declined to declassify the entire universe of signatories who were on active contract. In addition, some signatories to the Hunter Biden statement also had special “Green Card” access to the CIA at the time of the statement’s publication, allowing them to gain entry to secure CIA facilities.
● After publication of the Hunter Biden statement, CIA employees internally expressed concern about the statement’s politicized content, acknowledging it was not “helpful to the Agency in the long run.” At least one employee found it “[i]nteresting to see what was submitted and approved” when discussing media talking points that the statement’s co author, former Senior Intelligence Service Officer Marc Polymeropoulos, submitted related to the statement.
When discussing Polymeropoulos’s talking points, another CIA official stated, “It appears [Polymeropoulos] is actively involved in a pro-Biden campaign and may be disclosing classified information in his efforts.” The CIA’s internal review board, known as the Prepublication Classification Review Board (PCRB), determined that Polymeropoulos’s talking points contained classified information that had to be removed prior to publication.
“The new information included in this report, based on new testimony and declassified documents, shows the potential dangers of a politicized intelligence community. In the waning days before the 2020 presidential election, 51 intelligence community officials rushed to draft and release a statement using their official titles, presumably to convey access to specialized information unavailable to other Americans. The statement was conceived following a conversation with a senior Biden campaign official and designed explicitly to provide talking points to the Biden campaign to discredit politically damaging allegations. Some of the signatories of the statement were on the CIA payroll at the time as contractors and others had special access to CIA facilities. Even Michael Morell—before the Committees learned of his contract with the CIA—acknowledged, “It’s inappropriate for a currently serving staff officer or contractor to be involved in the political process,” the House Judiciary Committee said.
Here is the Judiciary report posted on X.
“We knew that the rushed statement from the 51 former intelligence officials was a political maneuver between the Biden campaign and the intelligence community. Now with this interim report, we reveal how officials at the highest levels of the CIA were aware of the statement and…

However, the CIA was not alone in its deception and manipulation of the American public in the 2020 election.
The House Ways and Means Committee released in June 2023 their interview with Gary Shapley, Jr., on May 26, 2023.
In the report, the committee included this nugget:
In October 2019, the FBI became aware that a repair shop had a laptop allegedly belonging to Hunter Biden and that the laptop might contain evidence of a crime. The FBI verified its authenticity in November of 2019 by matching the device number against Hunter Biden’s Apple iCloud ID.
Here is the screen grab from page 12 of the report:
The FBI and intelligence community knew in November 2019 that Hunter Biden’s laptop was authentic and contained evidence of hundreds of international crimes that included his father, Joe Biden.
They knew this in November 2019! Republicans and the Trump administration cannot let this go. Justice must be served!
