The House is set to vote today on authorizing the impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, with House Republicans coalescing behind the charged process. Despite concerns about the lack of evidence of misconduct by Biden, Republican Speaker Mike Johnson called the vote "the next necessary step." The investigation, centered around the business dealings of Biden’s family, has raised ethical questions but has not produced any evidence of corruption. If the vote is successful, the impeachment investigation could extend into 2024, potentially impacting Biden’s re-election campaign. Former President Donald Trump has been urging Republicans to move swiftly on impeaching Biden, while GOP leaders argue that the resolution is only a step in the process and will give them better legal standing. Democrats and the White House have defended Biden’s cooperation with the investigation, while Republicans have focused on Hunter Biden’s business dealings and his criminal charges in two states. The vote today will also determine whether Hunter Biden will appear for a private deposition or face contempt of Congress.
