House Speaker Defends Impeachment Inquiry Vote Into President Biden
-
House Speaker Mike Johnson defended a vote to formalize the impeachment inquiry into President Biden, arguing Republicans are committed to the "rule of law".
-
The vote will allow committees to continue investigating Biden family business dealings amid claims the White House is "impeding" the probe.
-
Johnson said they "have no choice" but to take the next step due to a "stone wall" from the White House and have to "follow the facts".
-
He argued there shouldn't be a "snap" or "sham" impeachment like Democrats did with Trump, saying they can't "prejudge the outcome".
-
The resolution aims to put Republicans in the "best position" to enforce subpoenas and outlines a process, but does not equal impeachment itself.
