This thread does a good rundown of why the whole pathogen biolab allegation is just a bunch disinformation. Like with many such claims, it's appealing at first blush, but someone with more knowledge can spot that it's misleading.

He started going downhill in 2016, accepting material he knew was from Russian intelligence. It appears that the final straw was when he wanted to publish articles in support of some of the conspiracy theories around Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, and China. The Intercept didn't feel like they passed journalistic muster and refused to publish them. He parted ways for Substack.
