Biden Needs Israel and Ukraine Conflicts to Distract Americans From Legal Scandals: Ex-CIA Analyst

"Biden has a personal stake in this," CIA veteran Ray McGovern told Sputnik. "What do I mean? If Biden loses in Ukraine, which is bound to happen in the next couple of months, it will be evident to everyone. It will be impossible to cover it up. If he loses in Ukraine, he'll be afraid to lose the election and his fears will be well-founded. And if this is the election, what do you think he also fears? He also fears that he'll end up in prison."

"That sounds ridiculous, doesn't it? But let's say that fellow Trump becomes president again. I hold no brief for Trump, but he is a forwarder, let's face it. Or somebody else with a feeling of vengeance to what the Republicans have suffered for the Democrats ever since the election in 2016. Let's say they come into power. Well, court testimony shows that the evidence that not only Hunter, but daddy took money, took bribes, took all kinds of things. It's pretty telling. It's there. It's enough, if someone is very vengeful, to move against not only Hunter, but Daddy," the former CIA analyst continued.

"Famously, Blinken played a key role in making sure that Biden won the election in 2020. What did he do? Well, most people don't remember this, but when Hunter Biden's laptop was found and, by the way, given to the FBI, this was a big kerfuffle. This was a big deal. So what were they going to do before the election? It showed not only Hunter involved in scurrilous activity, but taking bribes and mentioning his dad and influence peddling. And there was some of that dad involvement. So what were the Democrats going to do? Blinken: 'I got an idea. We'll make this work. I'll call my friend Mikey Morrell.' He used to head the CIA. 'Hey, Mike, can you gather maybe 50 or so former CIA directors and other high muckety bucks? How high intelligence and policy officials? All you need to say is that the Hunter's laptop bears all the earmarks of a Russian intelligence disinformation operation.'"

"Was this illegal what Blinken did with his intelligence comrades? Yes, it's got to be illegal. Does he fear being held accountable for that? Does he fear lacking this sense of impunity if Biden loses? Yes, he does. And I won't go on about this, just to say that Jacob Sullivan is the author, the intellectual author of 'Russiagate', Russia 'hacking into the DNC', which never happened, and it's proven to never have happened in court testimony. He too, has a personal stake in making sure 'don't lose anywhere, especially in Ukraine, don't lose the election'."

"And my God, what would happen if that other fella comes in, or any Republican comes in, and says, 'Look, we're seeing in a laptop. Are those 51 intelligence officials never asked the FBI what was in there? I mean, I had that laptop for months and months before. So you guys are pretty crooked and you should end up in some jail time!' They're all afraid of that. So what does this mean? This means that they have a personal stake in avoiding prosecution. If they lose in Ukraine, if they lose the election. And that's a very volatile, it's a very dangerous kind of perspective, because personal stakes for these people at least have a way of affecting policy choices and decisions as to whether to use military force in the final analysis," McGovern concluded.
