<p>House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said he plans to subpoena intelligence officials who signed a letter saying a New York Post story about <a class="person-popover__link" href="https://thehill.com/people/hunter-biden/" _mce_href="https://thehill.com/people/hunter-biden/">Hunter Biden </a>might be disinformation.</p>
<p>The Post in October 2020 published a story headlined “Smoking-gun email reveals how Hunter Biden introduced Ukrainian businessman to VP dad,” which was blocked on Twitter in the ensuing days over concerns about its veracity.</p>
<p>The story has been in the news recently as part of “Twitter Files” that allegedly show how the platform censored some information that could benefit conservatives and hurt liberals.</p>
<p>More than 50 former intelligence officials — including former CIA directors John Brennan and James Clapper — signed a letter in 2020 saying they didn’t have evidence to definitively call the New York Post story untrue.</p>
