the xor we just heard there from kevin mccarthy when he was speaker. he's actually announcing the impeachment proceedings at that point and he's using this particular individual, mr. smirnov as the basis for it. that's the justification that he's saying is the trusted fbi source. and lo and behold, in the filing today, smirnov is saying that he is passing the information about burisma and hunter biden from not just some cutout, but russian intelligence officials themselves and so i think that's just quite devastating in terms of where that's even brought us to this point in the country, given that this is the source of some of that information >> doug, what do you think? i mean, you have the chairman of the house judiciary committee saying this is our most corroborating evidence brianna, i think it's another brilliant success as a part of russian intelligence in meddling in our elections by taking advantage of are >> inherent weaknesses and strengths as opposed to 2016, as far as information narrative goes, the russians have been able to amplify actual
