(KTTS News) — Southeast Missouri Congressman Jason Smith will be part of the impeachment inquiry into President Biden’s involvement with his son’s business dealings.
Smith, who chairs the House Ways and Means Committee, will lead the inquiry along with House Oversight Chairman James Comer and House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan.
The process will give House committees more authority to seek bank records and other official documents.
President Biden has denied any wrongdoing.
There’s been no evidence directly linking him to Hunter Biden’s foreign business activities from when he was vice-president.
Press Release
House Committee on Ways and Means Chairman Jason Smith (Mo.), House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (Ky.), and House Committee on the Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (Ohio) today issued the following statement regarding Speaker Kevin McCarthy (Calif.) opening an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden:
“Since January, House Republicans have uncovered an overwhelming amount of evidence showing President Joe Biden lied to the American people about his knowledge and participation in his family’s influence peddling schemes. Bank records, suspicious activity reports, emails, texts, and witness testimony reveal Joe Biden allowed his family to sell him as ‘the brand’ around the world to enrich the Bidens. And, thanks to two brave IRS whistleblowers, we know that the Justice Department – which has been sitting on much of this evidence – has prevented career investigators from pursuing information that could have led to Joe Biden.
“Based on the evidence, we support the opening of an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden. The House Committees on Oversight and Accountability, Judiciary, and Ways and Means, will continue to work to follow the facts to ensure President Biden is held accountable for abusing public office for his family’s financial gain. The American people demand and deserve answers, transparency, and accountability for this blatant abuse of public office.”
