Mr. Trump tweeted the typosquatted hashtag

The asymmetry of attention mirrored that of the Hunter Biden laptop story; while the far-right press was copiously covering it, mainstream news publications were much more careful, largely because most newsrooms were not given access to the documents.

People sharing the Post article used the hashtag to collate all the information across social media platforms.

In the last month, on Facebook alone, posts with the hashtag had about 277,000 “interactions”

That moment wasn’t random. #BidenCrimeFamily is part of a yearlong, effective disinformation campaign against Joe Biden
