House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and top Republicans have begun to strategize about how to move forward with an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden this fall – the latest sign that the House GOP is seriously laying the groundwork to initiate rare proceedings against the current president.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and top Republicans have begun to strategize about how to move forward with an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden this fall – the latest sign that the House GOP is seriously laying the groundwork to initiate rare proceedings against the current president.

In recent weeks, McCarthy has privately told Republicans he plans to pursue an impeachment inquiry into Biden and hopes to start the process by the end of September, according to multiple GOP sources familiar with the conversations. While McCarthy has already publicly threatened to launch an inquiry if allegations from IRS whistleblowers hold up or if the Biden administration does not cooperate with requests related to House Republicans’ Hunter Biden probe, sources say that McCarthy has sent even stronger signals about his intentions behind closed doors.

    Around mid-2022 my father wanted to bet me that the new Congress would, on a bipartisan basis, vote to remove Biden and Harris and appoint Trump as President instead. Yes, I said bipartisan. My father was convinced that Democrats would say “let’s get rid of Biden and Harris because it would be much better to have Trump in the Oval Office.”

    The only reason I didn’t take him up on his bet was because I knew he’d either deny making the bet, alter what the bet was after the fact, or claim victory where there was none. (Something like “well, the Democrats ACTUALLY want to replace Biden with Trump, but Biden is stopping them somehow.”)
