Kevin McCarthy: House impeachment inquiry into Biden is a ‘natural step forward’

[Social Media]

 

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said Sunday that an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden is a “natural step forward” following Republican probes into the business dealings of the president and his family.

In an interview on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” McCarthy, R-Calif., was asked whether he plans to launch an impeachment inquiry when Congress returns next month.

 

“So, if you look at all the information we have been able to gather so far, it is a natural step forward that you would have to go to an impeachment inquiry,” McCarthy said.

He added that an impeachment inquiry “provides Congress the apex of legal power to get all the information they need.”

The White House didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

McCarthy's remarks suggest that the House, which Republicans lead by a slim margin, is moving closer toward an impeachment inquiry. Last week, he said the House could move forward with an impeachment inquiry if the administration doesn’t provide documents Republicans say they want to review.

“The thing that holds up whether we’ll do an impeachment inquiry: Provide us the documents we’re asking,” he said in a Fox Business interview. “The whole determination here is how the Bidens handle this.

“If they provide us the documents, there wouldn’t be a need for an impeachment inquiry,” he added. “But if they withhold the documents and fight like they have now to not provide to the American public what they deserve to know, we will move forward with an impeachment inquiry when we come back into session.”

McCarthy said Republicans are seeking bank and credit card statements, but he didn’t specify from which members of the Biden family.

The dear leader Trump gave his orders on Truth Social at the weekend:

 

"You don’t need a long INQUIRY to prove it, it’s already proven," he ranted. "These lowlifes Impeached me TWICE (I WON!), and Indicted me FOUR TIMES - For NOTHING! Either IMPEACH the BUM, or fade into OBLIVION. THEY DID IT TO US!"
