Journalist who broke Hunter laptop story testifies intelligence community executed operation to discredit the reporting
Journalist Emma-Jo Morris broke the famous story and published a series of reports on Hunter Biden’s laptop for the New York Post. Morris, now an editor for Breitbart, delivered a “mind-boggling testimony on the extent of censorship in America.”
During her testimony at the House Judiciary Hearing on “Weaponization of the Federal Government” Morris describes the Hunter story as the “laptop from hell” and explained what it entailed led to “some of the most scandalous reporting of the last decade.”
What was more scandalous is the fact that its discoveries unearthed the “unholy alliance between the intelligence community, social media platforms and legacy media outlets.
Morris explains at the time of her reporting, she was deputy politics editor at the New York Post. Her reporting showed then-candidate Joe Biden was involved in the foreign business deals with his family. “I revealed verified, authentic emails” just days before the 2020 presidential elections. The emails showed Ukrainian business partners receiving leaks from the Obama White House… and off the books meeting between then vice president Biden and a Ukrainian energy executive, and introduced the world to the ‘big guy’ who got action on a deal with CEFC, China Energy Company.”
Despite their verified reporting, “within hours” on social media, the reporting was “censored on all major platforms on the basis of being called hacked or Russian disinformation.” Examples include Twitter now allowing the link to be shared or tweeted.
Fast forward to 2023, House Investigators now know that the lie came from now Secretary of State Antony Blinken to former acting CIA Director Michael Morel that prompted the spy letter published by POLITICO which bypassed the agency approval process that would have been normally applied.
Federal agencies primed social media companies to execute an operation to discredit the reporting. According to internal documents released by Elon Musk when he acquired Twitter, the “FBI and other intelligence community members essentially directed the platform’s censorship operation, in part externally by working with top management and in part internally by social media companies hiring eye popping numbers of agency alumni.”
Morris concludes:
“By the way, two years later, no one denies that the laptop is real, that the origin story is exactly what I told you it was in the first place…what this relationship between the U.S. government officials and American corporations represent is an unprecedented push to undermine the First Amendment. “

Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, a longtime supporter of the Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare, is now acknowledging the unintended consequences of the healthcare legislation, particularly its impact on industry consolidation and rising healthcare prices.
Warren, who has been a vocal proponent of Obamacare, has recently had what the Wall Street Journal reported as an “epiphany” regarding the consequences of the healthcare law. In a letter addressed to the Health and Human Services Department inspector general, Warren, along with Senator Mike Braun of Indiana, expressed concerns about vertically-integrated healthcare companies potentially increasing prescription drug costs and evading federal regulations.
According to reports from Fox News, the bipartisan letter highlighted issues with the nation’s largest health insurers allegedly bypassing Obamacare’s medical loss ratio (MLR). According to Warren, these insurers, through vertical integration, have manipulated the system, leading to “sky-high prescription drug costs and excessive corporate profits.”
The senators detailed how conglomerates, like UnitedHealth Group, with ownership across various healthcare sectors, could inflate medical payments to pharmacies and, by realizing those payments on the pharmacy side, appear to comply with MLR requirements while retaining more profits.
Moreover, despite the Democrats’ argument that the MLR would benefit patients, it has incentivized insurers to merge with or acquire pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), retail and specialty pharmacies, and healthcare providers. This, in turn, has made healthcare spending less transparent, as insurers can allegedly shift profits to their affiliates by increasing reimbursements.
Warren, who has consistently voted against Obamacare repeal efforts, notably advocated for a “Medicare for All” proposal during her 2020 presidential campaign. Despite her prior support for the healthcare law, Warren’s recent concerns about its unintended consequences have raised questions about the long-term effects of Obamacare and its impact on the healthcare industry.
