Potential Biden impeachment inquiry - Major strike averted - Ocean current slowdown

Source: Associated Press

1. Summary
   During a Fox News interview on Monday, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said that House Republicans' investigation into the Biden family's overseas business is "rising to the level of impeachment inquiry." An impeachment inquiry grants lawmakers the power to obtain information, so as to evaluate starting actual impeachment proceedings.
   
   While calls to impeach President Biden had been prevalent among the House GOP's most conservative members, the idea is gaining traction among other House Republicans. McCarthy also previously expressed hesitation about impeachment proceedings.
   
   "When Biden was running for office, he told the public he has never talked about business. He said his family has never received a dollar from China – which we prove is not true," McCarthy said Monday. The shift also comes after lawmakers uncovered an FBI memo saying an informant learned the CEO of Ukrainian firm Burisma sought to bribe Joe and Hunter Biden. The memo's allegations remain unverified.
