Biden lightheartedly mentions impeachment amid calming inflation concerns

President Joe Biden, recognizing positive indicators in the economy, humorously jabbed at House Republicans for considering an impeachment inquiry. During his visit to a textile manufacturing facility in Auburn, Biden highlighted the low inflation rate in the U.S., suggesting that his opponents may need to find a different line of attack against him. While Biden acknowledged that there is still work to be done, he emphasized his commitment to restoring the American dream and promoting “Bidenomics.”

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy recently hinted at the possibility of launching an impeachment inquiry into Biden based on unsubstantiated claims of financial misconduct by Hunter Biden. However, McCarthy privately acknowledges that it is too early to determine the president’s involvement in his son’s financial dealings. The White House has chosen not to engage with these efforts, instead focusing on advocating for Biden’s domestic agenda and “Bidenomics.”

During the trip to Maine, Biden signed an executive order aimed at incentivizing companies to manufacture new inventions in the United States. This visit demonstrated Biden’s commitment to blue-collar voters in Maine’s 2nd District, where he lost in the 2020 election, but is seeking their support for a potentially decisive electoral vote in the 2024 presidential election.

While Maine Representative Jared Golden has openly criticized Biden on some policies, he expressed his support for “Bidenomics” during the event at Auburn Manufacturing Inc. Despite policy differences, Golden traveled with Biden on Air Force One. Meanwhile, Republicans argue that Biden’s policies have contributed to higher inflation, with Maine State Representative Joshua Morris claiming that Bidenomics has negatively impacted working people in his district.

The executive order signed by Biden aims to enhance the transparency of federal research and development programs, prioritizing domestic manufacturing based on national security and economic interests. Additionally, federal agencies are encouraged to consider domestic production when investing in research and development. The order also instructs the Commerce Department to establish a clearer process for receiving waivers when certain goods cannot be manufactured in the U.S.

Auburn Manufacturing Inc., the venue of Biden’s speech, is known for its production of heat- and fire-resistant fabrics used in various industries. The company has challenged China’s unfair trade practices in this sector.

Later in the day, Biden was set to attend a fundraising event in Freeport, Maine.
