FBI Source Behind Fake Hunter Biden 'Bribery' Claim Jailed for 6 Years

A former FBI informant who fabricated a story about President Joe Biden and his son Hunter accepting bribes was sentenced to six years in prison on Wednesday. The false claims were a focal point of Republican-led impeachment efforts against Biden.

Alexander Smirnov, a dual U.S. and Israeli citizen, pleaded guilty in December in a Los Angeles federal court to charges of tax evasion and lying to the FBI.
