The House speaker on Tuesday endorsed an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden amid GOP infighting.
The news comes ahead of an expected contentious battle over a bill to continue funding the government through the next fiscal year. As the House Freedom Caucus has laid out its demands, concerns have grown that Republicans may not reach a deal by the end-of-the-month deadline, fueling concerns of a government shutdown, which would have wide-ranging impacts for millions of Americans.
An impeachment inquiry would allow House Republicans to make their next moves to strengthen their case against the president, including obtaining Hunter Biden's bank records., and even some Republicans, as the investigations have yet to prove that President Biden benefited from his son's business dealings.
Former federal prosecutor Joyce White Vance wrote on X that the Republicans' impeachment attempts are different from when Democrats impeached President"When Trump was impeached it was because evidence of high crimes & misdemeanors came to light," she wrote."Dems acted reluctantly. The MAGA caucus has forced proceedings against Biden w/out evidence, for the purpose of more investigating [although] theirs has not been productive & to try & appease Trump.
