James Clapper Stands by 2020 Letter on Hunter Biden Laptop

Former intelligence official refuses to retract statement labeling laptop as Russian disinformation despite evidence proving its authenticity.

James Clapper, along with 50 other former intelligence officials, signed a letter in 2020 claiming Hunter Biden's laptop was part of a Russian disinformation campaign.
The laptop has since been verified as authentic by multiple media outlets and the Department of Justice.
Clapper recently reiterated his stance and declined to remove his name from the letter when questioned by Fox News.
The laptop has been introduced as evidence in Hunter Biden's ongoing federal gun crime trial.
The incident has renewed scrutiny over the role of intelligence officials and media in the 2020 election.
