House Republicans have released a 291-page report accusing President Joe Biden of committing impeachable offenses, including abuse of power and obstruction of justice, related to his family’s foreign business dealings.
The report, issued just before Biden’s scheduled speech at the Democratic National Convention, alleges that Biden was involved in a $27 million “influence-peddling racket” during his vice presidency and beyond.
The investigation, which began in September 2023, compiled evidence from witness testimonies, subpoenas, and millions of pages of documents.
Biden is accused of aiding his son Hunter and brother James in profiting from foreign entities, including those in China and Russia, while attempting to cover up their activities.
The report challenges Biden’s public claims of non-involvement and suggests his actions represent one of the most severe abuses of power in U.S. history.
Despite these allegations, Biden is unlikely to be impeached due to his decision to retire and the slim Republican majority in the House.
The findings are expected to influence upcoming legal proceedings against Hunter Biden.
