Tony Bobulinski: Dem's 'disinformation' tactic forced him to break silence

The tactic by former Vice President Joseph R. Biden, Rep. Adam B. Schiff and other Democrats to blame the Hunter Biden laptop scandal on “Russian disinformation” backfired badly in the mind of former Biden family business partner Tony Bobulinski.

It was after the unfounded Russian conspiracy chatter started that, Mr. Bobulinski said, he decided to break from the Biden clan. He became the cash-for-influence scandal’s first whistleblower to clear his name and expose Joseph Biden as, he says, a liar.

Mr. Bobulinski watched as Mr. Schiff, California Democrat and chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, went on cable TV news to pronounce the leak of Hunter Biden messages as a Russian plot. At the Oct. 22 presidential debate, Democratic nominee Biden followed suit.

Mr. Bobulinski, who was a business partner in SinoHawk Holdings with Hunter and his uncle, James Biden, became incensed. His name is on the cache of laptop text messages and emails, which he has verified. Mr. Biden and Mr. Schiff essentially were calling him, a Navy veteran from a military family, a Russian agent.

His whistleblowing reached a zenith Tuesday night when he appeared on Fox News in an exclusive interview with Tucker Carlson.

“I was hoping the Bidens would do the right thing or Schiff would retract his statement, but I could not allow another minute, another hour or a day for my family’s name to be associated or muddied up around Russian disinformation,” Mr. Bobulinski said.
