House Speaker Kevin McCarthy says Republican lawmakers may consider an impeachment inquiry of President Biden over unproven claims of financial misconduct, responding to GOP pressure to demonstrate support for Donald Trump ahead of the 2024 election.
President Joe Biden meets with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy of Calif., to discuss the debt limit in the Oval Office of the White House, May 22, 2023, in Washington.
With a slim majority in the House, McCarthy faces demands from Trump allies to elevate their priorities. Trump himself questioned at a Fox News town hall last week why Biden has not yet been impeached. Hunter Biden has since reached an agreement with prosecutors to plead guilty to misdemeanor charges of having failed to pay income taxes for several years. He is set to appear in court this week in that case.
Grassley is working with House Oversight Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., who had subpoenaed the FBI for the document.In the memo, Democrats point to other documents, including from Lev Parnas, a former associate of Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani who claimed to have first-hand knowledge of some of the conversations and disputed the allegations. Parnas said one of the Burisma officials told him the claims are not true.
