Key Biden accuser is charged with lying? Who cares, say House Republicans

Congress should investigate case of Alexander Smirnov, who has been linked with Russian intelligence, leading lawyer argues

Congress should publicly investigate the case of Alexander Smirnov, the FBI informant charged with lying about corruption involving Joe Biden and linked to Russian intelligence, a leading lawyer said, adding that senior Republicans who pushed Smirnov's claims should be forced to testify.

The Senate should open an immediate investigation into the Alexander Smirnov scandal - with public hearings, said Tristan Snell, formerly a prosecutor on the Trump University fraud case, now author of Taking Down Trump, a book on the former president's many legal challenges.
