"The FBI confidential source charged last week for allegedly providing false information about President Biden and his son Hunter Biden implicated Russian intervention,”Axios reports.

“Alexander Smirnov admitted that ‘officials associated with Russian intelligence’ were involved in passing a story about Hunter Biden.”

“Prosecutors alleged in the filing that Smirnov told an FBI handler that the Russian Intelligence Service intercepted several cellphone calls placed at a hotel ‘by prominent U.S. persons the Russian government may use as ‘kompromat’ in the 2024 election.'”
