The nearly 300-page report is a summary of the investigation conducted by the House Oversight, Judiciary and Ways and Means committees over the past year and a half, nearly all of which has already been made public.

It argues that Biden enriched himself through his family’s business ventures and concealed his mishandling of classified information in office, the subject of the investigation conducted by special counsel Robert Hur, who declined to press charges this year.

In addition, the committees say that the Justice Department mishandled its investigation into his son Hunter Biden’s tax problems and that the White House has withheld key documents and witnesses from the impeachment investigation.

The investigators put the total at $27 million, according to the bank records they received. But the investigators failed to turn up evidence that Biden himself received money from those companies or participated in the foreign business deals beyond the occasions when Hunter Biden called him on speakerphone to exchange pleasantries while in the company of foreign business associates or when he saw them at his son’s birthday dinner.

Someone remind me… didn’t Joe Biden drop out of the race? Wouldn’t that mean that this transparent political hit job was a colossal waste of time on the part of the Republicans?

    If someone is guilty of a crime, they should be held accountable. I don’t know if that requires congress to be involved or the FBI or what but if Biden did what they say he did (for which they’ve found no evidence) he should 100% be impeached and prosecuted. I don’t care how old you are or what your job is or how long ago you were president. The rules apply to everyone. Not just the people you don’t like. However, it would seem the Supreme Court has already determined this case is baloney.

    If the Republicans want to waste time and money, they should be held accountable by journalists and the people who vote them into office should be made aware of their misdeeds. Sadly, most republican voters don’t really care about reality or corruption in their own party as much as vengeance. The GOP has zero political agenda other than hating and oppressing others.
