Tulsi Gabbard has already been confirmed and sworn in as the next Director of National Intelligence, but the media’s still doing some spinning to try and keep certain Democrat talking points alive.
The legacy media just can’t bring themselves to fully admit that dozens of former intel officials participated in election interference by signing off on the infamous “stories about Hunter Biden’s laptop and its contents are likely part of a Russian disinformation campaign” letter.
Tulsi Gabbard once pointed out that those ex intel officials (who have now been stripped of security clearances) colluded with the Biden administration to mislead voters shortly before the 2020 presidential election. The New York Times is still reporting that claim as being made “without evidence.
The New York Post’s Miranda Devine knows that spin is a bad joke:
“WITHOUT EVIDENCE!!” The New York Times is still in denial about the Laptop From Hell. What an absolute joke. pic.twitter.com/9ftHPH9T5f

If the Times would care to look, Devine offered up a piece of evidence that sinks their “without evidence” reporting:
Hey @nyt Here’s some evidence: Mike Morell, former acting CIA director to John Brennan, Obama CIA director, asking him to sign the Dirty 51 letter falsely claiming Hunter Biden’s laptop was Russian disinformation “to give the [Biden] campaign… a talking point to push back on… https://t.co/e7dytCnqZ3 pic.twitter.com/BAWwwxqAl0

Other than all that, there’s no evidence at all (cue massive eye roll).
And, by the way, that was from their morning newsletter sliming Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel. pic.twitter.com/pN8927J3V7

The “no evidence” thing sounds like it was written by the DNC.
The NYT, spouting former CIA talking points, demonstrates once again how fake and inaccurate its reporting is.
The letter signed by 51 former intel officials was indeed “a talking point” for the Big Guy in 2020

Which is exactly what the Morell email to Brennan says.
