One of the intelligence officials who signed an open letter casting doubt on the authenticity of the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020 is now conceding he knew large swaths of it had to be real at the time.
Douglas Wise, who served as the Defense Intelligence Agency's deputy director, was one of 51 former senior intelligence officials to sign the letter saying they were"deeply suspicious" that the laptop story had ties to Russian disinformation. In the time since, much of the content in the original story was corroborated by other media outlets, including the Washington Examiner.
In the letter, the 51 former officials underscored"that we do not know if the emails, provided to the New York Post by President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, are genuine or not and that we do not have evidence of Russian involvement." The officials leaned on their credentials to argue"our experience makes us deeply suspicious that the Russian government played a significant role in this case.
