At least three former intelligence officials who publicly tried to discredit The Post’s bombshell Hunter Biden laptop story have landed a new gig.
The so-called “spies who lied” — former CIA director John Brennan, former National Intelligence Director James Clapper, and former CIA senior operations officer Paul Kolbe — will serve on the Department of Homeland Security’s recently-announced “Homeland Intelligence Experts Group” panel.
In that capacity, they will offer their insights about national intelligence matters to the department’s Under Secretary for Intelligence and Analysis Ken Wainstein and Counterterrorism Coordinator Nicholas Rasmussen.
The group will convene at least four times a year to discuss the wide range of ongoing national security concerns. Alejandro Mayorkas named three intelligence officials who publicly, and falsely, tried to discredit The Post’s bombshell Hunter Biden laptop story to the Department of Homeland Security’s “Homeland Intelligence Experts Group” panel.Pressing concerns on the agenda include: “terrorism, fentanyl, transborder issues, and emerging technology,” per a press release.
Back in October 2020, a band of 51 former intelligence officials signed a letter dubiously claiming that emails highlighted in The Post’s first exposé on Hunter had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”
