Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy threatened to launch impeachment proceedings against President Joe Biden. It hasn’t happened yet.
“They are trying to throw Trump in jail for the rest of his life for having a couple dozen documents that he had authority to declassify.”The threats are related to testimony released June 22 by the Republican-controlled House Ways and Means Committee from two IRS officials. The officials said the Justice Department stonewalled efforts to investigate Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden’s son.
Experts cautioned that the testimony should be weighed against broader evidence, such as emails, texts and testimony from other participants who may have seen the same events from a different perspective.to plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges. Prosecutors also are recommending a sentence of probation for a gun-related charge, and a pretrial diversion program that is available to nonviolent offenders with substance abuse problems.
But the Facebook user who reshared the post did not make any corrections. That post’s claim that McCarthy had announced an impeachment proceeding is wrong.
