Republican efforts to impeach President Biden could soon peter out, after a second hearing failed to deliver any evidence pointing to President Biden’s involvement in his son Hunter Biden’s business dealings. With Republican support for the impeachment eroding, Congressmember James Comer, who is leading the impeachment inquiry, said he is weighing possible criminal referrals to the Justice Department instead of a lawmaker vote. New York Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez blasted the impeachment attempt during Wednesday’s hearing.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: “Clearly, what we are seeing here today is a continuation of the 15-month saga of the Republican majority lost in the desert. … This resolution does not outline a high crime or misdemeanor. It’s not here.”
