House Republicans said Wednesday they will try to shut down a new Homeland Security intelligence panel, whose members include several Obama administration figures, that spread disinformation about Hunter Biden’s laptop.

The chief targets are James Clapper, who was director of national intelligence, and John Brennan, who ran the Central Intelligence Agency. They took part in an effort during the 2020 campaign to castigate Hunter Biden’s laptop as a Russian disinformation plot, when in fact it was authentic.

Rep. August Pfluger, chairman of the Homeland Security Committee’s subcommittee on intelligence, said the panel is a waste of resources and its members are an embarrassment. Mr. Mayorkas formed the experts panel to be a source of private sector wisdom. He said they will help Homeland Security’s counterterrorism efforts. The panel will meet four times a year.
