House Republican Investigation Findings

House Republican investigators concluded that President Joe Biden engaged in conduct that merits impeachment. A report released after an exhaustive investigation highlighted how Biden used his vice-presidential position to boost his family’s business dealings in Ukraine, China, and other countries.

The report alleges Biden participated in a conspiracy to monetize his office to benefit his family financially, constituting an outright abuse of power. Investigators presented millions of pages of documents, bank records, and conducted over 30 interviews and depositions, which they argue support their findings.

The Biden Impeachment Inquiry Report shows Joe Biden’s White House “obstructed the Committees’ impeachment inquiry by withholding key documents and witnesses.” As the House shined the spotlight on the Biden Crime Family, the White House did all they could to fight Congressional…

Obstruction and Document Handling Accusations

The report also accuses Biden of obstructing investigations by claiming executive privilege over an audio recording and actively blocking Republican attempts to probe further into the matter. Notably, the House voted to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress over this incident.

“After wasting nearly two years and millions of taxpayer dollars, House Republicans have finally given up on their wild goose chase. This failed stunt will only be remembered for how it became an embarrassment that their own members distanced themselves from as they only managed to turn up evidence that refuted their false and baseless conspiracy theories.” – White House spokesperson Sharon Yang

The investigation points to the Biden family’s foreign business ventures producing over $27 million in revenue. However, the report does not indicate that President Biden received any money from these deals or changed U.S. policies to benefit them.

Report’s Limitations and Political Reactions

The report stops short of recommending specific articles of impeachment or calling for an immediate vote. Despite serious accusations, it relies heavily on disputed and uncorroborated testimonies from Biden business associates and IRS whistleblowers. The report’s impact remains speculative as impeachment proceedings have not been formally initiated.

“Their compulsive flailing about has not only proven, once more, that President Biden committed no wrongdoing, much less an impeachable crime, but has paradoxically vindicated President Biden’s essential honor and decency,” Raskin said in a statement.

There is significant pushback from House Democrats. They released a counter-memo asserting that Republicans failed to provide concrete evidence showing any direct involvement by Biden in his family’s business activities. The White House also reiterated Biden did not engage in any improper activity.
