The arrest of a key informant for Biden’s impeachment for giving false testimony does not change anything – the head of the relevant committee of the House of Representatives
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan brushed off questions about a whistleblower charged with perjury key to the GOP effort to remove Biden, saying it “doesn’t affect the fundamental facts” of the case. impeachment investigation, The Hill reports.
As The Hill recalls, the informant, whose name is Alexander Smirnov, also reported that Biden, as vice president, together with his son Hunter, together received a bribe in the amount of $5 million – and his testimony became one of the main arguments of the Republicans trying to achieve impeachment. Meanwhile, last week the US Department of Justice brought charges against Smirnov that he fabricated part of the evidence, including about the mentioned bribe.
However, Jordan said on Wednesday that Smirnov’s arrest does not change anything from the Republicans’ point of view. “Well, it is what it is. But this does not change the fundamental facts. These facts do not change, regardless of what this confidential source says now,” The Hill quotes Jordan as saying.
