House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan finally revealed the truth about exāFBI informant Alexander Smirnov.
After trying and failing to salvage Republicansā crumbling impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, Ohio Representative Jim Jordan at last, finally, conceded on Friday that Alexander Smirnovās story might not be totally accurate.
āI donāt know, maybe the guy did lie,ā Jordan said at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday.
The House Judiciary chair spent the better part of the week attempting to twist and tweak Smirnovās testimony, insisting, as he had for months, that Smirnovās allegationsāthat Biden had reaped millions off of a business deal between his son and the Ukrainian company Burismaāstill held weight, and could prove the most viable pathway to successfully charge the sitting president. That is, even after Smirnov was indicted for lying to the FBI about those claimsāand then reportedly admitted to prosecutors that the story had been drawn up with the help of top Russian intelligence officials and the whole thing was a bed of lies.
āBut there sure is quite a contrast forāChristopher Steele can give false information about President Trump, and he continues to get paid.ā
Thing is, the information in the Steele Dossier was not FALSE. Even the most salacious allegation, the āpee tapeā, has been corroborated.

"on October 30th, 2016, Trumpās private attorney and fixer Michael Cohen received a text from a Russian businessman involved in the Trump Tower Moscow deal, in progress for more than a year. āStopped flow of tapes from Russia but not sure if thereās anything else. Just so you knowā¦.ā Giorgi Rtskhiladze wrote to Cohen. Cohen told investigators he spoke to Trump about the issue after receiving the texts from Rtskhiladze.Ā
Rtskhiladze later admitted he had been told the tapes were fake, but he did not communicate that to Cohen, the report says.Ā
Rtskhiladzeās description of the tapesā content tracks with the unverified information included in the Steele dossier, which claimed that Trump watched Russian prostitutes urinate in a Moscow hotel room in 2013. āRtskhiladze said ātapesā referred to compromising tapes of Trump rumored to be held by persons associated with the Russian real estate conglomerate Crocus Group, which had helped host the 2013 Miss Universe Pageant in Russia.ā"
Also, regardless, Christopher Steele didnāt present any of this information while under oath, so even if any of it werenāt true, he has every right to say it. Alexander Smirnov lied under oath under the direction of the Russian government
More accurately, he lied to the FBI.
Lmao
The tapes must flow!
