Joe Biden

As House Republicans push to open a formal impeachment inquiry against President Joe Biden, House Democrats are asking, "What's the crime?"

U.S. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), a former constitutional law professor who also served as the lead impeachment manager for the second impeachment of Donald Trump, mocked and berated House Republicans who have, he noted, been investigating President Joe Biden for nearly a year and have yet to uncover proof of any criminal activity or impeachable offense.

A Republican congressman was caught on camera giving away his real goal at the impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.

Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX), one of Donald Trump's strongest allies in the U.S. House, was asked Tuesday on Capitol Hill what he hopes to gain from the inquiry into the president and his family's business dealings, and video obtained by Rolling Stone shows him appearing to admit it's political theater.

The Electoral College majority in the 2024 presidential election may be decided by just tens of thousands of ballots cast among a handful of swing states. And one lesser-known court case in Arizona could potentially decide which party will carry the state's 11 electoral votes next November.

Arizona Public Radio reported that the White Mountain Apache and Carlos Mountain Apache tribes have filed a motion to intervene in the ongoing Arizona Free Enterprise Club v. Fontes case being heard in Yavapai County Superior Court.

The Supreme Court agreed on Wednesday to rule on restrictions imposed by a lower court on a widely used abortion pill in the latest skirmish in the battle over reproductive rights in the United States.

It is the most significant abortion case to reach the nation's highest court since the justices overturned the constitutional right to the procedure in June of last year.

Hunter Biden accused "MAGA" Republicans of lying and blasted the "unrelenting Trump attack machine" in a passionate speech on Capitol Hill to set the record straight on his business dealings and personal finances after House GOP committee chairs refused his offer to testify before Congress in public. The chairs threatened him with contempt of Congress if he did not testify behind closed doors.

"Let me state as clearly as I can," the President's son stated unequivocally Wednesday morning, minutes after he was scheduled to testify (videos below). "My father was not financially involved in my business, not as a practicing lawyer, not as a board member of Burisma. Not in my partnership with a Chinese private businessman, not in my investments at home nor abroad, and certainly not as an artist."

Reps. James Comer (R-KY) and Jim Jordan (R-OH) announced on Wednesday that they would initiate contempt of Congress proceedings after Hunter Biden declined to appear for a closed-door deposition.

"Hunter Biden today defied lawful subpoenas and we will now initiate contempt of Congress proceedings," the pair said in a statement.

Rep. James Comer (R-KY) this week revealed that he has stopped appearing on "Fox & Friends" because he does not appreciate the scrutiny he's received from host Steve Doocy.

As The New Republic reports, Comer on Tuesday night appeared on Newsmax host Eric Bolling's show to discuss his impeachment inquiry against President Joe Biden, and he revealed that Doocy's skeptical questioning had driven him away from Fox News' flagship morning program.

Republican members of the House hit out at Hunter Biden Wednesday, claiming he was refusing to appear before their committee while — just outside the door on Capitol Hill — Biden was at a press conference saying he continues to be more than willing to meet with lawmakers in public but refuses to be questioned in secret.

Rep. James Comer (R-KY) snapped at reporters, telling them they didn't know what they were talking about when they peppered him with questions.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) interrupted Reps. James Comer (R-KY) and Jim Jordan (R-OH) on Wednesday as they tried to make the case to reporters that President Joe Biden had improperly benefited from his son's overseas business dealings.

As Comer rehashed claims that there was something nefarious about Hunter Biden repaying his father for a loan that he'd made so that he could buy a truck, Greene started speaking over her Republican colleagues and leveling QAnon-style allegations against the president's son.

Reps. James Comer (R-KY), Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) had a contentious meeting with reporters who surrounded them in a congressional office building on Wednesday as they headed into an effort to impeach President Joe Biden.

The confrontation happened just minutes after Biden's son, Hunter Biden, slammed House GOPers for their campaign against his dad.

Former President Donald Trump is claiming that because he was still president in late 2020 and early 2021, he enjoys "immunity" from prosecution in special counsel Jack Smith's election interference case. That "immunity," Trump claims, renders the case invalid.

Smith considers Trump's immunity-from-prosecution argument in the case ludicrous, and U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan has agreed. In a December 1 ruling, Chutkan stressed that the office of the presidency "does not confer a lifelong get-out-of-jail-free pass."

Is special counsel Jack Smith the new four-star general in the "War on Christmas?"

That appears to be the allegation that former President Donald Trump's lawyers are making in their arguments against granting Smith's request for expedited review of whether the former president can be held criminally liable for actions that he took while he was still president.
