Talk about revisionist denial. The FBI had the laptop for nearly a year before it was published in the Post. They could have easily ‘leaked’ verification. Instead, they pre-programmed twitter to block it as part of their operation to prevent Trump’s re-election. The Intelligence Community had no business sticking their nose in, either, but they did, and the only member I recall refuting it was Trump’s DNI John Ratcliffe. The agencies that are responsible for worldwide election interference turned their tradecraft on domestic affairs.
