David Weiss announced Thursday that a former FBI informant was charged with “making a false statement … and creating a false and fictitious record” for statements reportedly made about President Joe Biden and his family’s business dealings, changing what were “routine and unextraordinary” contact with executives into “bribery allegations against” Biden.
The news that Smirnov potentially lied about the Bidens’ involvement with Burisma Holdings comes as a blow to the Republican impeachment inquiry into Biden over his alleged foreign business dealings with his son. Smirnov’s claims of bribery were praised as “credible” by congressional Republicans, CNN reported, and were used “front-and-center” in the impeachment inquiry.
