John Solomon: The Biden Campaign Was Behind the "51 Intelligence Officers" Letter; Current Secretary of State Anthony Blinken was Directed by Biden to Organize The Campaign Op
Updated!

Congress now has testimony from Mike Morrell -- the CIA official who said nothing when his superior lied to Congress, and who later quit government to make big money working for a Hillary Clinton-connected "intelligence" company (Beacon) -- that the entire lie was organized by our Secretary of State.

He called up his leftwing intelligence buddies and told them to lie.

I hear that Morrell says Blinken lied to some of the officials to get them to sign the lying letter, telling them it would not be used for political purposes. Blinken also told them that they had evidence that the laptop was a Russian op, which, of course, was a lie.

Solomon says the testimony will become public when it is "transmitted" to other branches of government. I have no idea what this means, but I'm going to assume it means that Jim Jordan is writing a letter to Merrick Garland telling him to investigate Anthony Blinken, and this letter will include the charges that Blinken used US Intelligence to Interfere in a Presidential Election.

I also hear that Lindsey Graham is going to write a letter disclosing the information.

Update: ( might have misheard that, I might have been told he's going to *comment* on it, which he just did in the Fox interview I added below the fold.

Bonus: Lindsey Graham talks about the Hunter Biden whistleblower, mentioned in the previous post. He also talks about the Mike Morrell testimony.

Miranda Divine reports on the leftwing media grumbling that they showed up for the Fox trial in Wilmington, Delaware, and then didn't get a story.

She wants to know why they don't just visit the Wilmington offices of the US Attorney pretending to investigate Hunter Biden, and ask him about the charges that he's tanking the investigation deliberately.

She then reports on the Morrell revelations:

Take the bombshell this week from former acting CIA Director Mike Morell.

In a sworn interview, Morell has admitted it was Joe Biden's presidential campaign that prompted the infamous letter in which Morell and 50 fellow former intelligence officials falsely claimed that material from Hunter Biden's laptop published by The Post before the 2020 election was Russian disinformation, sources in the House Judiciary Committee have confirmed.

Tony Blinken, now secretary of state, was the Biden campaign foreign affairs adviser who urgently phoned Morell in October 2020 to suggest the laptop was a Russian plant.

"We can prove that the entire purpose of this letter at the outset was to influence a presidential election with some of the most senior people who have ever been in our intelligence community ­using the imprimatur of their security clearances to pave the way for Joe Biden's presidency," Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) told Steve Bannon's "War Room" podcast this week.

...

"Morell wanted to be Joe Biden's CIA director, got a phone call from Tony Blinken, who was representing the Biden campaign, saying, 'Gee, Mike, doesn't this Hunter Biden laptop look like Russian disinformation?' " said Gaetz.

"Morell testifies that then triggers him to be the ringleader of an enterprise to go to others and to put together a letter for the specific purpose of use by Joe Biden in the presidential debate ... We can prove that and much more."

The committee has also interviewed a former adviser to ex-CIA Director John Brennan and Obama White House alum Nick Shapiro, who cooked up the letter with Morell and delivered it to ­Politico.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) will release a report in the next couple of weeks tracing the origins of the "Dirty 51" letter, showing it constituted corrupt interference in the 2020 presidential election.

Meanwhile, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) this week revealed that newly accessed financial records from the Treasury Department show "the Biden family enterprise is centered on Joe Biden's political career and connections, and it has generated an exorbitant amount of money for the Biden family."

Note that Mike Morrell is a commentator for CBS.

Divine offers some speculation as to which of Merrick Garland's sworn statements before Congress were perjurious:

What's more, the whistleblower has evidence that will "contradict sworn testimony to Congress by a senior political appointee" -- who is Attorney General Merrick Garland, according to congressional sources.

In sworn testimony to a Senate oversight hearing on March 1, Garland was grilled about the Delaware investigation into Hunter by Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa). Garland was asked whether Weiss had "sought permission of another US Attorney's Office, such as in the District of Columbia or California [both places where Hunter has lived], to bring [tax-related] ­charges? If so, was it denied?"

Garland replied that he did not know but went on to insist that Weiss has been "advised that he has full authority ... to bring cases in other jurisdictions if he feels it necessary ... He is not to be denied anything that he needs, and if that were to happen, it should ascend through the department's ranks, and I have not heard anything from that office to suggest that they are not able to do everything that the US attorney wants to do."

Grassley pointed out that "without special-counsel authority, [Weiss] could need permission of another US attorney ... to bring charges outside the district of Delaware."

Garland replied: "I promised to leave the matter of Hunter Biden in the hands of the US attorney in the district of Delaware ... I pledged not to interfere with that investigation, and I have carried through on that pledge."

That sounds right to me. I think Divine is right, that Merrick Garland has denied the US Attorney the power to bring charges against Hunter Biden for crimes committed in another jurisdiction, which proves Garland perjured himself before Congress.

And I bet you she isn't just "speculating," either -- I think she has probably been told about the specific perjured statement.

Update: Note that I have previously said that it's David Weiss, the US Attorney for Delaware, who is tanking the case. As Jack Straw points out, assuming this whistleblower statement is true, it's Merrick Garland who is tanking the case, by refusing him the authority, which he requested, to investigate crimes taking place in California.
