The former FBI informant who was recently re-arrested after being released by a judge is facing charges of lying about the Bidens. The Justice Department obtained a new warrant for his arrest from the judge overseeing the case in Los Angeles. Alexander Smirnoff is accused of lying to the FBI and falsifying documents, with the charges being filed in Los Angeles.
Smirnoff was initially arrested in Las Vegas, where a detention hearing took place a few days ago. The judge at that time decided to release him, citing that the political implications and concerns raised by the Justice Department were not sufficient to justify his continued detention.
