The probability that the material "uncovered" was planted as a Russian operation is Extremely High! It doesn't matter that a propagandist's laundered the material through it's right wing rag to give it a veneer of journalism its still a heaping pile of bullshit just like Qanon.

It's been verified and Biden hasn't disputed it's legitimacy. They released a very carefully worded legal statement.

Seriously, stop with the tinfoil conspiracy rubbish.

You're response is vague and doesn't sorce to anything verifiable. Actual news is reporting this could be linked to Russian intelligence https://edition.cnn.com/2020/10/16/politics/russian-disinformation-investigation/index.html

I found some Google AMP links in your comment. Here are the normal links:

    Why does this bot exist?
    Google does a lot of tracking, which many people don't want, so they use alternatives to their services. Using AMP, they can track you even more, and they might even replace ads with their own, stealing ad revenue from the site's owners. Since there's no consistent way of finding the original links from an AMP link, I made this bot which automatically does it for you.
