House Republicans voted to formally open a impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden and his family’s business dealings. But, nothing regarding the evidence has changed, according to Michael Gerhardt, a professor at the University of North Carolina Law School who has testified before Congress on the Clinton, Trump and Biden impeachments.
“Republicans are hoping that with this formal authorization of an impeachment inquiry, they can persuade courts that they can perhaps get at bank accounts they have not been able to get up before — not because they think there’s anything there necessarily, but because they’re still fishing to try and find stuff about President Biden, as opposed to Hunter Biden,” he told William Brangham.
