House Republicans held their first impeachment inquiry hearing into President Biden, laying out allegations but expert witnesses said evidence is lacking.

Democrats accused Republicans of doing Trump's bidding, raising his family's foreign dealings, and noted Giuliani and Parnas sought dirt on Biden in Ukraine.
