House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan and House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer have been under scrutiny following the indictment of ex-FBI informant Alexander Smirnov, who was accused of lying about the Biden family in the Department of Justice's probe. Despite the indictment, Jordan maintains that it 'doesn't change the fundamental facts' of the GOP's case against Biden, a stance met with criticism for relying on now-deemed false testimony potentially sourced from Russian intelligence. Jordan's explanation, "it corroborates, but it doesn't change the facts," and Comer's statement that Smirnov "wasn't an important part of this investigation" highlight a contradiction. Representative Ken Buck revealed GOP members were previously warned about the credibility of the informant's claims but still publicized them as credible and damning.
