0:51Now PlayingHouse Democrats say "We will defend President Biden until the very end," as Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced Tuesday he is directing the U.S. House to open an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden over his family's business dealings, launching historic proceedings ahead of the 2024 election.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries in a press conference Tuesday said, "It is an illegitimate impeachment inquiry...a waste of time and taxpayer dollars."
McCarthy said that House investigations so far "paint a picture of a culture of corruption” around the Biden family as Republicans probe the business dealings of the president's son, Hunter Biden, from before the Democratic president took office.
“These are allegations of abuse of power, obstruction and corruption, and they warrant further investigation by the House of Representatives,” McCarthy, R-Calif., said at the Capitol, announcing he was directing the House led by the Oversight Committee "to open a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.”
The White House shot back, calling the action in the midst of the presidential campaign “extreme politics at its worst.”
