WASHINGTON−House Republicans held their first marathon impeachment inquiry hearing Thursday, fueled by allegations President Joe Biden has financially benefited from his family’s foreign business dealings.
GOP lawmakers have long targeted Hunter Biden’s work overseas. But while investigators have produced evidence revealing the president’s son and his associates made millions from the affairs, they have yet to share concrete evidence showing the president personally benefited from those dealings.
During the hearing, Republicans sought to link the president to his family finances and explain why a formal impeachment inquiry provides the right resources for lawmakers investigating. But Democrats accused their colleagues across the aisle of simply not having the evidence to move forward.
