The United States House of Representatives voted to authorize an investigation into President Joe Biden’s potential impeachment, focusing on his son Hunter Biden’s international business dealings.
The move sparked pushback from Democrats, with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi dismissing the idea of impeaching Biden.
Washington Examiner columnist Byron York posted, “On October 15, 2019, three weeks after unilaterally declaring an impeachment inquiry, Speaker Pelosi, backed by Adam Schiff, insisted there was no requirement to hold an authorizing vote, and she would not hold an authorizing vote.” (Trending: Pro Sport Announces Shock Decision On Transgender Athletes)
Andrea Mitchell asked Pelosi, “How do you feel about the push by the House Republicans—many of them—the Speaker certainly, you know, certainly flirted with this idea of impeachment proceedings against President Biden because of unfounded allegations that he was involved with his son Hunter’s businesses?”
“As you well know, you were very cautious about starting impeachment proceedings for the very reason that once you start in a special committee or the judiciary committee, it’s very hard to stop that process,” Mitchell continued.
“With all due respect to your question, this is frivolous; this is a diversionary tactic,” responded Pelosi.
“They just can’t stand the fact we have a job report of over nearly 200,000 jobs today, that unemployment is three-and-a-half percent, that 18 straight months of unemployment are under 4 percent,” said Pelosi.
“We’re talking about 13.4 million jobs created with Joe Biden in the White House and working with the Congressional Democrats,” she continued.
“They have to change the subject, and they have nothing to offer the American people in terms of jobs and the rest. They talk about it, but then they change the subject when it’s time to deliver,” claimed Pelosi.
“It’s really sad. I wish the Republican Party would be—someone would take it back—that we’d have a real Republican Party. It’s up to them to decide what it is. But it shouldn’t be a cult,” added the former Speaker.
“It shouldn’t be a cult to somebody frivolous with the law and his puppets,” concluded the California democrat.
Republicans are questioning Biden’s involvement in his son’s refusal to comply with a subpoena, while the Democrats argue that the investigation is a diversionary tactic.
Hunter Biden declined a subpoena, insisting on a public testimony, while Republicans accused him of evading the demands.
The investigation is centered on whether the President engaged in a conspiracy to obstruct a congressional proceeding.
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer and House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan wrote in a joint letter, “We are compelled to examine as part of our impeachment inquiry whether the President engaged in a conspiracy to obstruct a proceeding of Congress.”
