Explosive allegations that were central to the opening of an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden came from an FBI informant who said he was in touch with Russian intelligence, according to a Justice Department special counsel.
Transcript
00:00 The impeachment investigation essentially ended yesterday in substance, if not in form,
00:06 with the explosive revelation that Mr Smirnoff's allegations about Ukrainian
00:14 Burisma payments to Joe Biden were concocted along with Russian intelligence agents.
00:26 And it appears like the whole thing is not only obviously false and fraudulent, but a product of
00:33 Russian disinformation and propaganda. And that's been the motor force behind this investigation
00:39 for more than a year. Russia hoax, Russia hoax. What part of it is the hoax? Is it the war in
00:45 Ukraine? Is it the death of Navalny? There's not a Russian hoax. There's been a series of efforts
00:52 by Vladimir Putin to destabilize and undermine American political democracy. And he's done the
00:58 same thing in other countries around the world. And the FBI, I mean, Chris Wray didn't want to
01:02 let us have the form because he said this guy was such a valued source. Somebody's asked the FBI,
01:08 really? This is your valued source? If he's now some spy, I mean, holy cow. So it doesn't change
01:13 our facts. Hunter Biden makes a call. Devanarsha told us he made a call to his dad, to Joe Biden.
01:20 And then three days later, Joe Biden goes to Ukraine and conditions the release of American
01:24 tax money on the firing of the prosecutor, applying the pressure to the company that
01:28 Hunter Biden sat on the board of. Those facts, they don't change regardless of what this
01:32 competential human source has said.
