James Clapper, a former director of national intelligence, said Politico 'deliberately distorted' a letter written in 2020 by intelligence officials about Hunter Biden's laptop.
Compact Magazine founder and editor Sohrab Ahmari joined 'Fox & Friends First' to discuss Big Tech's alleged cover-up of the Hunter Biden story and AOC calling the story 'half fake.'
"There was message distortion," Clapper told The Washington Post's Glenn Kessler in an article published Monday."All we were doing was raising a yellow flag that this could be Russian disinformation. Politico deliberately distorted what we said. It was clear in paragraph five." "No one who has spent time in Washington should be surprised that journalists and politicians willfully or unintentionally misconstrue oral or written statements," Fingar wrote in an email."The statement we signed was carefully written to minimize the likelihood that what was said would be misconstrued, and to provide a clear written record that could be used to identify and disprove distortions.
"The intent of the letter was that this could be Russian disinformation — emphasis on could. It’s a very important nuance … a distinction that people are always ignoring," Clapper also told the Washington Post.
