FBI Informant's Indictment Weakens GOP Impeachment Efforts Against Biden

The indictment of Alexander Smirnov, who provided false information about the Bidens, challenges the foundation of the GOP's impeachment case.

Alexander Smirnov, an FBI informant, was indicted for lying about a bribery scheme involving Joe Biden and his son, Hunter.
Smirnov's allegations were central to the GOP's impeachment inquiry against President Biden, claiming a Ukrainian company bribed the Biden family.
The FBI found Smirnov's claims to be false after reviewing his travel records, messages, and emails, which contradicted his 2020 report.
Despite the indictment, House Oversight Chairman James Comer insists the impeachment probe will continue, citing other evidence of foreign cash flows to the Biden family.
President Biden calls for the impeachment inquiry to be dropped, labeling the efforts based on Smirnov's allegations as 'outrageous'.
