Hunter Biden uses FBI informant ‘bribery’ claims in gun case

Hunter Biden on Monday offered the federal judge in his Delaware gun prosecution additional authorities in support of his attempt to torpedo the case as selectively and vindictively brought by special counsel David Weiss, whom the defendant likened to a tool of Russian intelligence.

Pointing to erstwhile FBI informant Alexander Smirnov’s February indictment for making allegedly “false bribery allegations” against Joe Biden and Hunter Biden, the president’s son asserted Weiss knew for years that the claims were “baseless” but reopened an investigation after pressure from congressional Republicans and, just a short time later, after prosecutors reneged on a plea agreement, Weiss was appointed as special counsel and ramped up his probe to secure bicoastal indictments.
