Indicted FBI Informant's Role in GOP's Biden Case Unveiled

A 43-year-old FBI informant, Alexander Smirnov, who was at the center of the GOP's case against President Joe Biden, has been indicted for lying to the bureau about the president and his son Hunter Biden for political purposes. Republicans had touted these false statements as a key piece of their impeachment inquiry into the president, but now downplay the impact of the indictment. The saga began with claims of bribery allegations against the Bidens, originating from Smirnov, and led to threats of contempt against the FBI director. The investigation into Hunter Biden and the president has sprawled into several different areas, including business dealings and a widely debunked theory.
