Whistleblower reveals FBI wrongly labeled Hunter Biden evidence as disinformation

FBI officials inaccurately labeled “verified” evidence against Hunter Biden as disinformation, bureau whistleblowers told lawmakers, Sen. Chuck Grassley revealed on Monday.

In a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray, Mr. Grassley said his office has been contacted by current and former “highly credible whistleblowers” who described how the FBI improperly sought to discredit the Hunter Biden case by labeling “verified and verifiable derogatory information about the president’s son as disinformation.”

By inaccurately labeling the evidence as disinformation, investigative activity in the Hunter Biden probe was brought to a halt by FBI officials.
