Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) explained to skeptical reporters at a Capitol press conference Tuesday afternoon his reasoning for opening the door to an impeachment inquiry of Joe Biden, but McCarthy did not call for one to begin. The House is set to go on a six-week vacation this week. It could be the fall before McCarthy decides to pull the trigger on a Biden impeachment.
.... Snip....
McCarthy first dropped the notion of a Biden impeachment inquiry on the Fox News Channel show Hannity on Monday night. McCarthy deliberately mentioned the phrase “rising (or rise) to the level of impeachment inquiry” twice. In addition to Joe Biden’s alleged foreign bribery schemes with son Hunter, McCarthy also said he wanted to investigate Joe Biden for abuse of power, saying, “…because this president has also used something we have not seen since Richard Nixon, use the weaponization of government to benefit his family and deny Congress the ability to have the oversight.”
.... Snip....
McCarthy explained that it is not impeachment, but an inquiry about serious allegations of wrongdoing that could lead to impeachment if evidence is developed through the inquiry. McCarthy went through several examples of alleged Biden corruption, changing stories and government interference that warrant an impeachment inquiry.
One of the skeptical reporters was CNN’s Manu Raju, “McCarthy moves closer to announcing impeachment inquiry. Asked him if Rs have corroborated unverified allegations from FBI informant that Biden engaged in bribery scheme with foreign national as VP. He argued that an impeachment inquiry would allow them to answer those questions”
McCarthy gave no indication when or whether he would trigger an impeachment inquiry into Biden. A month ago McCarthy floated an impeachment inquiry of Attorney General Merrick Garland–nothing has happened on that front since then.

Where are the J6 videos he promised?
Why announce our plans to the opportunistic Bidens?
Give it a couple of years Kevin. You’ll know when! /S
After Devon Archer’s Congressional testimony next week, I would expect him to start an impeachment inquiry or at least I would hope he would.
Maybe he’s hoping the disloyal opposition will 25th-amendment Biden during the August recess, saving him actually having to do something.
If the Republican party wants to impeach, and that’s a very big IF...they need to use the 6 week recess to communicate and build momentum.
They have to develop a message, stick to the message and drive it home in every public appearance and every media appearance.
But I caution everyone, do not hold your breath.
Just being reported on Forbes Breaking News that McCarthy has just announced Impeachment Investigations to begin.
Let’s be real about this. Let’s assume the House impeaches the usurper in the White Hut. Rats (and a lot of RINOs) will never remove him from office. And, if they did, the BJ Queen is the new resident? I have no doubt at all about the complete corruption going on. I also believe it is far, far worse than even has been hinted at.
But, what is a real solution? I simply don’t know. Go ahead and impeach because that is the right thing to do and get the Senate unindicated co-conspirators (Rats and RINOs) on record supporting the corruption? That seems the right thing to do, but will also be mighty unsatisfying in the face of massive corruption (at a minimum, but probably many other horrible crimes too).
As much as he’d like too, he can’t back down now. IMPEACH THEM ALL!
Let me go check it out
That’s right. The evidence building against these corrupt people is overwhelming. They’re committed.
And Biden will never see a second term.
Next week Congress is in recess, are they not?
“If the Republican party wants to impeach...”
************
Who knows what the Republican Party wants to do? Its a soulless, fake party devoid of any convictions or any real agenda.
His problem is not skeptical reporters but rather skeptical members of the House.
If McCarthy doesn’t have an iron clad legal case to persuade the members of the House then he won’t proceed.
It seems pretty straight forward to me but I am not a politician or a lawyer.
Then if McCarthy is not able to persuade then he shouldn’t be in that job but that is another story.
I just went to Forbes. He actually didn’t call for impeachment.
“Maybe he’s hoping the disloyal opposition will 25th-amendment Biden during the August recess, saving him actually having to do something.”

You’re probably right. Biden’s condition is becoming visibly worse everyday. Also the Dems don’t want his dirty laundry aired out for all to see during an impeachment and the Republicans don’t really want to go through the impeachment process.
Wait until the primary season starts next January.
What’s he waiting for? PERMISSION!
Just like baseball, the top four hitters go first.
