The GOP's impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden has been marred by revelations that key allegations against him and his son, Hunter Biden, may have originated from Russian intelligence. Alexander Smirnov, a former FBI informant central to the accusations, has been indicted for lying about a multimillion-dollar bribery scheme involving the Bidens and a Ukrainian energy company and was released on personal recognizance. Smirnov's claims, pivotal to the GOP's case, have been discredited after he admitted to having ties with Russian intelligence, highlighting the role of Russian disinformation. Despite these developments, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan maintains that the fundamental facts of their case against Biden remain unchanged. Meanwhile, James Biden, the president's brother, has testified before the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees, denying any involvement of Joe Biden in the family's business dealings. Additionally, federal investigators verified the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop archive in late 2019, contradicting claims of its illegitimacy. The unfolding situation raises questions about the credibility of the impeachment inquiry and the influence of foreign intelligence on American politics.
