Totally your prerogative to select news sources for your personal information. JUST BE AWARE much disinformation is provided from this source :)
IMO, Johnson is not an unbiased source.
Larry C. Johnson is a long-time defender of Russia.
He makes appearances on RT.
“He has been vocal in his defense of Russia against allegations that a Vladimir Putin-ordered hacking campaign was conducted to disrupt the 2016 presidential election and help Trump win. He is also connected to sideney blumentha: a pro-clinton blogger.
In the weeks before the inauguration, Johnson told state-controlled Russia Today that the U.S. conclusion that Russia interfered in the election was “a joke,” and he called the American intelligence community “stupid.” In the same interview, Johnson said: “There’s no evidence on the side of Russia meddling in the U.S. election.”
*The U.S. intelligence community had concluded that Russia did meddle in the election.

MY CONCLUSION: He regularly makes his appearances on RT.
I just IGNORE his AGITPROP :)
He's a contrarian getting his kicks opposing those who have the most political power. During the 9/11 years, When Bush was top dog, Johnson opposed the War on Terror. During the Trump presidency, when Trump was a political underdog, his support of Trump was in opposition to the majority power trying to take down Trump.
Johnson, like many others making a living on controversy, is good at telling a small and highly agitated audience what they want to hear.
