Biden impeachment inquiry vote could come Wednesday

The U.S. House of Representatives could begin down the road of impeaching President Joe Biden as soon as Wednesday. According to NBC News, the House Rules Committee was slated to discuss a resolution to authorize the inquiry before taking it to a full vote. House Speaker Mike Johnson said the approval of the inquiry would allow Congress to further its investigation into the Bidens’ business dealings, especially in foreign countries.

 

Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy ordered the impeachment inquiry in September, but the White House has pushed back on the requested subpoenas. In September, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported that Wisconsin’s House Republicans largely supported the inquiry. Rep. Mike Gallagher was non-committal then, saying he wanted more information at an upcoming meeting. Gallagher told the Journal Sentinel that he does not want to “lower the bar for impeachment” and that “there needs to be evidence of a crime.” He also added that what “Hunter Biden and probably Joe Biden were doing is extremely swampy, and if it wasn’t illegal, it should be.” Democrats believe there is not enough evidence to move forward with the inquiry.
