TL;DR Summary

At least two hardline Republicans plan to force a vote in the Republican-controlled US House of Representatives on whether to impeach Democratic President Joe Biden and members of his administration, over the objections of Speaker Kevin McCarthy, who fears that such moves risk undermining congressional investigations. The efforts stand little chance of advancing in the House, which Republicans control by a narrow 222-212 margin. Some hardline Republicans have been eager to impeach Biden as an act of retribution after his predecessor, Republican Donald Trump, was twice impeached by the then-Democratic-controlled House.
