What if the deep state swayed the election?
To the editor:
As of March 17, 2022 and to the present, the New York Post has reported that the “Hunter Biden laptop is legitimate.” The emails and texts which were on the laptop show that the Biden family members were directly involved in the financial gains and influencial pedaling with the Chinese, Russian and Ukrainian governments.
During the Trump administration, more than 50 Obama administration officials signed onto a letter outlining their belief that the disclosures of emails and texts allegedly belonging Joe Biden’s son “has all the classic earmarks of a Russian disinformation operation.”
In fact, these former Trump administration officials, Russ Travers, Glenn Gerstell, Rick Leggett, Marc Polymerepoulous and Cynthia Strand also signed the letter.
In addition, former Obama administration officials, John Brennan, Leon Panetta, General Michael Hayden, John McLaughlin, and Michael Morell also signed the letter.
All these individuals were in positions where they received daily briefings on national security matters. Most of the people on these lists, endorsed Biden for president.
During President Trump’s administration, the “deep state” phrase became very evident. A layman’s definition of the “deep state” is a group of Democrats, Republicans independents or anybody who are bureaucrats who want to undermine the president, the government or its policies. This describes the entire time span from when Donald Trump announced his running for president, his term, and even until present day.
From 2015 through present day, Donald Trump has been vilified and unjustly accused of wrongdoings of which none have been proven.
Obviously, these individuals, who Biden spoke of and signed the letter, were candidates to be participants in the “deep state.” These individuals were accomplices in suppressing and hiding the Hunter Biden laptop story.
In a CNN article on the internet, Biden was quoted as saying, “there are 50 former national intelligence folk who said that what he’s, Trump, accusing me of is a Russian plant. Five former heads of the CIA from both parties say what he’s saying is a bunch of garbage. Nobody believes it except his good friend Rudy Guiliani.”
In a national poll which was taken after the 2020 election, 30% of the voters who voted for Biden would not have if the truth had been reported about the Biden’s family involvement in Hunter Biden’s presently reported laptop data.
So along with the liberal media’s purposely ignoring and suppressing the Hunter Biden story when it surfaced before the 2020 election, these “deep staters” literally threw the election in favor of our present nightmare, Joe Biden!
Near the end of President Trump’s term, his attorney general, William Barr, reported that as result of his investigation, the 2020 election was valid and absent of any foul play. Attorneys general do not actually do any hands-on investigating. They rely on the FBI, CIA and other government employees to do it and report their findings.
What if William Barr utilized investigative findings from the above mentioned individuals? It is obvious that the “deep state” is alive and kicking presently. This is evident by the false statements that this administration releases and the liberal press and media try to convince the American people that the difficult situations which we are experiencing are false talking points by the conservative side.
It took less than 1 ½ years for the truth to finally surface about the Biden family’s involvement in the Chinese, Russian and Ukrainian business dealings. I hope that I am wrong, but what if in another 1 ½ to two years, other evidence starts to surface about the 2020 election?
The federal government has proven by its actions that there are many unethical people influencing its decisions and policies. As result of this, many Americans mistrust and have lost faith in our government.
Just think, “what if”?
