(Congressional Agenda) – On Wednesday, the House of Representatives voted on a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden over allegations that he was involved in an influence peddling scheme along with his brother and younger son, Hunter Biden, while serving as vice president during the Obama administration. The initiative passed without any support from Democrats in a 221-212 vote.
Jack Davis of The Western Journal reports, every Republican voted “yes” in favor of H. Res. 918, while Democrats, terrified of the possibility of seeing one of their own actually held accountable for their actions, voted “no way” on the measure. I mean, can you imagine what might happen if Biden actually faces the music for his corruption? It will trickle down to other Democrats in the House and Senate. Before you know it, people will be held responsible for breaking the law, even if they’re powerful politicians. It would be utter chaos!
That is, of course, sarcasm. We desperately need such a scenario to unfold if we want to dismantle the two-tiered system of justice the deep state has worked for decades to install within the DOJ. Every American is to be equal under the law. It’s a foundational principle critical to the survival of our republic.
“The facts don’t lie. It’s time to get the American people answers,” House Speaker Mike Johnson posted on X prior to the vote taking place.

“The action was taken in hopes that it will add might to the House Republican majority’s efforts to compel testimony through subpoenas, according to NBC. So far, subpoenas and requests for transcribed interviews with staffers, Biden family members and their associates have had to battle White House resistance that no official inquiry had been authorized,” the WJ noted in its report.
“We think a formal vote of the majority of the House, on record, for a power that solely resides with the House — that helps us if, in fact, we’ve got to go to court,” Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jim Jordan, an Ohio Republican, stated. “Hopefully, just passing it in and of itself is enough to say, ‘OK, guys, come in and talk to us.’”
Other members of the GOP were in agreement, stating that if this step will result in more information from President Joe Biden, it should absolutely be taken.
“If he’s not providing the information because he says there’s no formal impeachment inquiry, that means we need a formal impeachment inquiry to get the information,” Republican Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska went on to say, pointing out that an inquiry does not result in a vote to impeach Biden.
“Voting in favor of an impeachment inquiry does not equal impeachment,” Republican Rep. Tom Emmer of Minnesota went on to explain, as per a piece from CNN.
“We will continue to follow the facts wherever they lead, and if they uncover evidence of treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors, then and only then will the next steps towards impeachment proceedings be considered,” he remarked, Just the News divulged.
“Joe Biden has repeatedly lied to the American people about his family’s corrupt influence-peddling schemes. He told the American people he never spoke to his son about his family’s business dealings. He claimed there was an absolute wall between his official government duties as vice president and his family. He said his family never made money from China. All of these are blatant lies,” Rep. James Comer commented in a video published on X. “Our investigation has revealed how Joe Biden knew of, participated in, and benefited from his family cashing in on the Biden name around the world.”

“We’re now at a pivotal moment in our investigation. We will soon depose and interview several members of the Biden family and their associates about these influence-peddling schemes. But we are facing obstruction from the White House,” Comer continued. “The White House is seeking to block key testimony from current and former White House staff. It is also withholding thousands of records from Joe Biden’s time as vice president. President Biden must be held accountable for his lies, corruption, and obstruction.”

You would think there would be at least one Dem that would like to get all the information to clear Biden if he is innocent!! Obviously none of the Dems want the truth because they already know Biden is guilty! Honesty begone!
If Biden committed murder in front of every Dem present, they would support him, no morals, no logic, no conscience!
The truth will prevail…Biden and his lies are coming to a boil. The whole party is a disgrace to our ONCE GREAT COUNTRY. AND MICHELLE OBAMA THINKS SHE’S PETRIFIED? We’ve been petrified the past 3 yrs.
