"Johnson defends vote to formalize Biden impeachment inquiry amid White House ‘impasse’: 'We have no choice' while Americans grow weary"

House Speaker Mike Johnson defended the upcoming vote to formalize the impeachment inquiry into President Biden, citing the need to fulfill their constitutional responsibility and follow the rule of law. Johnson argued that House Republicans have hit an impasse in their investigations due to the White House impeding the process by not allowing witnesses and withholding documents. The vote on the resolution is not the same as a vote to impeach, but rather a step to continue investigations into the Biden family's business dealings. Republicans aim to enforce subpoenas and set forth a clear process, emphasizing that no one is above the law, including President Biden.
