You mean this guy? > Ratcliffe withdrew after Republican senators raised concerns about him, former intelligence officials said he might politicize intelligence, and media revealed Ratcliffe's embellishments regarding his prosecutorial experience in terrorism and immigration cases. > Ratcliffe has little experience in national security or national intelligence and is reported to have demonstrated little engagement on the matters as a congressman.

You're welcome to ad hominem attack the DNI all you'd like, but that doesn't change what he said. Do you have any evidence to support the evidence being fabricated? Do you have any evidence to show where the previously non-public images (like Hunter asleep with a crack pipe next to him) published by the Post came from, if not the hard drive of said laptop?

    > U.S. intelligence agencies warned the White House last year that President Trump’s personal lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani was the target of an influence operation by Russian intelligence, according to four former officials familiar with the matter. This anonymous / unsourced claim is false, according to the Director of National Intelligence. There is no intelligence that supports that and no one is even on the record claiming that it does. WashPo may have fabricated the claim. See linked video of DNI speaking about it.

      I remember when RG was universally considered a hero for cleaning up NYC and his leadership on 9/11. Now apparently he's a befuddled old man allowing himself to be easily manipulated and led around by the nose by foreign intelligence agents. I'm going to assume he's not that stupid. And the emails are real. Biden is owned by the CCP.

    There's nothing at all in this link that is related to the authenticity of the emails. It's just more of "Muh Russians" garbage from Wa Post.

  I absolutely think what’s on the laptop is real. I absolutely don’t think the origin story of the laptop is real, and that’s what the man whose credibility you’re appealing to is trying to defend.

  We have a DNI who is patently a hack. Unqualified. Damaging the IC.
