The Biden administration is using \u201crarely definitive\u201d intelligence to deal with foreign threats such as Russia and China. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe administration has done so even when the intelligence wasn\u2019t rock solid, officials said, to keep Russian President Vladimir Putin off\u00a0balance,\u201d argues an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/national-security\/us-using-declassified-intel-fight-info-war-russia-even-intel-isnt-rock-rcna23014\">article<\/a> penned by Ken Dilanian, NBC\u2019s intelligence and national security correspondent, and others.<\/p>\n<p>Even NBC noted that \u201cit doesn\u2019t even have to be solid intelligence when we talk about it,\u201d but it just has to do what the administration wants.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s more important to get out ahead of them, Putin specifically, before they do something. It\u2019s preventative,\u201d NBC News anchor Alison Morris said. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"9wWTGx6Ag213FYEiUuNAZHrrdf6KoCc75EpixSqfts4bcRlsSpWwPmjaBn8n9OKM0O\"><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Three U.S. officials tell NBC News that U.S. claims based on \u201cintelligence\u201d on Russia were made up simply to \u201cpreempt the Russians\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One U.S. official: \u201cIt doesn\u2019t have to be solid intelligence when we talk about it..\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Yv9udq05ex\">pic.twitter.com\/Yv9udq05ex<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Camila (@camilapress) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/camilapress\/status\/1511826552090157058?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 6, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><\/span>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Dilanian claimed in his article that so far, U.S. intelligence officials, the same ones who admitted to lying, say the strategy is working. He argued that \u201cintelligence is rarely definitive,\u201d which should excuse the Biden administration\u2019s overeagerness to push it regardless of legitimacy.<\/p>\n<p>Others, however, say that these intentional leaks have exposed the administration\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/03\/01\/in-leaks-about-failed-russian-diplomacy-biden-exposed-dangerous-weakness-on-china\/\">\u201cdangerous weakness\u201d<\/a> in dealing with sworn enemies.<\/p>\n<p>The intelligence community has a history of manipulating and distorting narratives to harm political enemies both foreign and domestic. <\/p>\n<p>Just one month before the 2020 election, more than 50 intelligence officials signed a letter designed to throttle the Hunter Biden laptop story by smearing it as Russian disinformation. During the 2016 election cycle, spy agencies such as the FBI used the discredited Steele Dossier to justify their espionage against the Trump campaign. <\/p>\n<p>The corporate press readily accepts these unsubstantiated claims at face value because it sullies their political opponents. When \u201cunnamed intelligence sources\u201d fed <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/04\/15\/surprise-the-russian-bounty-story-hyped-up-by-corrupt-media-to-hurt-trump-turned-out-to-be-fake-news\/\">false assertions<\/a> that Russia offered members of the Taliban bounties in exchange for killing American soldiers in 2020, the media repeated the information as gospel truth and used it to fuel their anti-Trump narratives ahead of the 2020 election. <\/p>\n<p>Over and over, U.S. intelligence agencies have betrayed the trust of the American people and capitalized on the corporate media\u2019s bias to push false narratives.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The most recent confession from U.S. spies shows that the American intelligence community will twist any narrative as long as benefits the deep state\u2019s political agenda. Right now, that means using shaky information to escalate U.S. involvement in the Russia-Ukraine conflict.<\/p>\n<p>CIA Director William Burns <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/policy\/international\/597913-bidens-cia-head-leads-the-charge-against-putins-information-war\/\">admitted<\/a> as much in a congressional hearing last month when he said the actions were justified because \u201cin all the years I spent as a career diplomat, I saw too many instances in which we lost information wars with the Russians.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Releasing intelligence backed by little confidence, a lack of evidence, and low likelihood of credibility, Burns said, \u201chas been a real benefit, I think, to Ukrainians.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<p>\n  Jordan Boyd is a staff writer at The Federalist and co-producer of The Federalist Radio Hour.
