House Republicans got their formal authorization to launch an impeachment inquiry into President Biden today as the chamber voted 221-212 in a straight party-line vote. https://twitter.com/therecount/status/1735070909495447763 From CBS News:
The vote puts Republicans in districts that Mr. Biden won in 2020 on the record about whether they support an investigation that has so far uncovered no wrongdoing by the president.
Republicans on the House Oversight, Judiciary and Ways and Means Committees have been trying to show for months that Mr. Biden was enriched by his family’s foreign business dealings and accepted bribes.
But the full House never voted to open an impeachment probe, leading many Democrats to question its legal authority.
While Republicans have been pushing the narrative about some wrongdoing by Biden for months, when asked directly not one House GOPer has said they’ve found any direct evidence that Biden has committed any “high crimes or misdemeanors.” https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1734971981491995093
McGovern: “Dozens and dozens of Republicans and even Fox News hosts — let that sink it — have bluntly admitted that there’s no evidence to support impeaching President Biden … this is a waste of time.” pic.twitter.com/py4W95HA13

Although every Republican voted in favor of formally authorizing the impeachment inquiry, some have said they’re undecided if they’d actually vote to impeach Biden if a vote is held. https://t.co/rr8w3LZjox
