WASHINGTON, Sept 28 — US Republicans launch impeachment inquiry hearings into Joe Biden on Thursday, escalating an eight-month corruption investigation that has failed to uncover evidence of wrongdoing by the president.
"House Republicans have uncovered serious and credible allegations into President Biden's conduct," McCarthy said as he announced the inquiry, under pressure from his party's far-right fringe to target the president.The Biden administration has dismissed the effort as a"stunt," accusing Republicans of trying to distract voters, days ahead of a looming government shutdown sparked by far-right lawmakers.
But opponents say the idea is simply to have a damaging open-ended inquiry going into an election year, and that an impeachment would never have sufficient support in the House, where the Republicans have a razor-thin majority. "And so why are we going to spend the next few months on bogus and sham impeachment inquiry? Because Donald Trump wants them to, and Donald Trump has been calling them and urging them to do it, because he was impeached twice."One allegation being advanced by Republicans — that Biden was bribed by Ukrainian firm Burisma, where Hunter Biden served on the board — is based on an anonymous tip that Trump's Justice Department investigated and dropped.
