"Fifty people associated with the intelligence community, after our Hunter Biden investigation and the revelations of the Hunter Biden computer, said, ’Oh, this is Russian disinformation,'" Johnson went on, referring to The Post’s bombshell reporting on Hunter Biden’s shadowy overseas business dealings.

"I can’t sit by here and listen to this and say that this is not disinformation, this hearing today. This is getting information. We have to take a look at [it] to restore confidence in our election integrity," he said.
Peters pushed back, telling Johnson: "You say I’m putting out information. I had nothing to do with this report."
"You lied repeatedly! You lied repeatedly in the press. That I was spreading Russian disinformation," Johnson shot back.
