House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has announced that Republican lawmakers are considering an impeachment inquiry into President Biden’s alleged financial misconduct. This decision comes as a response to mounting GOP pressure to show support for Donald Trump in preparation for the 2024 presidential election. McCarthy emphasized the need to investigate the questions raised by House Republicans regarding the Biden family’s finances, even though no wrongdoing has been proven thus far. McCarthy believes that an impeachment inquiry will enable Congress to uncover the truth by gathering more information.
An impeachment inquiry initiated by the House would be the initial step towards presenting articles of impeachment. The duration of such a probe would be determined by the House and could potentially extend into the campaign season. McCarthy stated, “We will follow this to the end,” expressing his commitment to the cause. He first suggested the possibility of impeaching Biden on Fox News. This represents a significant shift for McCarthy, who previously dismissed efforts by House conservatives to launch an impeachment inquiry. With a slim majority in the House, McCarthy is facing pressure from Trump supporters to prioritize their agenda. Trump himself questioned why Biden has not been impeached during a recent Fox News town hall.
McCarthy did not provide a specific timeline for initiating an impeachment inquiry against Biden and stated that he has not discussed the matter with Trump. When asked if he felt pressure from Trump, McCarthy responded dismissively, “Do I look like I’m under pressure?” White House spokesman Ian Sams criticized the House GOP’s eagerness to target the President, stating on Twitter, “Instead of focusing on the real issues that Americans want us to address, like lowering inflation and creating jobs, this is what the House GOP wants to prioritize.”
