The confidential source, Alexander Smirnov, who made allegations of a Biden family bribery scheme with Burisma memorialized in a FBI Form FD-1023 report that Justice Department whistleblowers gave to Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) last year has been indicted by Hunter Biden Special Counsel David Weiss on one count each of making a false statement to the FBI and “creating a false and fictitious record.”

Sen. Grassley released the FD-1023 in July 2023 that can be read at this link. The confidential source claimed he spoke with Ukraine energy firm Burisma CEO Mykola Zlochevsky who told him he had paid $5 million for one Biden and $5 million for another, which was taken to be Hunter Biden and then Vice President Joe Biden. The source said the Burisma executive claimed to have text messages and recordings backing up his allegations.

Rep. James Comer, co-chair of the Biden impeachment inquiry, issued a statement on the indictment saying the investigation “is not reliant” on the FD-1023, reported Fox News reporter Chad Pergram on X Twitter:

“1) Comer on arrest of FBI informant in connection with Hunter Biden probe: The impeachment inquiry is not reliant on the FBI’s FD-1023. It is based on a large record of evidence, including bank records and witness testimony. 2) Comer: Just this week, we had another witness confirm Joe Biden was the brand being sold by the Bidens around the world. President Biden continues to lie to the American people about this matter and the American people demand the truth and accountability for any wrongdoing.”

The bombshell indictment was announced on Thursday.

February 20, 2024 – Biden’s DOJ is now alleging the FBI informant arrested last week “is actively peddling new lies that could impact U.S. elections after meeting with Russian intelligence officials in November.”

The FBI’s confidential source, Alexander Smirnov, was indicted last week by Hunter Biden Special Counsel David Weiss on one count each of making a false statement to the FBI and “creating a false and fictitious record.”

Smirnov was the underlying source of the Biden-Burisma bribery allegations. According to Smirnov, Burisma Holdings founder and Ukrainian oligarch Mykola Zlochevsky told him he paid a total of $10 million in bribes to Hunter and Joe Biden. There are text messages and audio recordings to back up these claims.

Recall that Senator Chuck Grassley last July released the FBI document showing Joe Biden was involved in a $10 million bribery scheme with Burisma CEO Mykola Zlochevsky. (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 2/20/2024)  (Archive)
