"House Republicans Seek Testimony from Biden and President in Impeachment Probe"

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, R-Ky., announced plans to invite President Joe Biden to testify in the impeachment investigation, alleging that his family received tens of millions of dollars from foreign companies with his assistance. This comes after a public hearing where GOP lawmakers accused the president's relatives of corruption, but no new evidence directly implicating him was presented. The prospects of moving forward with impeachment have also diminished as some House Republicans question the evidence for impeachable offenses.

GOP's Impeachment Inquiry into Biden: Graham Unfazed

Senator Lindsey Graham downplayed the House Republicans' impeachment investigation into President Joe Biden, stating that he hasn't been paying much attention to it and hasn't seen a "smoking gun" that proves Biden financially benefited from Hunter Biden's business enterprises. While Republicans have alleged that the president benefited from his family's foreign business dealings, they have not publicly released evidence to support these claims. Graham criticized Hunter Biden's argument that his father was unaware of his business dealings, stating that it is "falling apart." However, Graham emphasized that his focus is on other national priorities, such as supporting Israel and addressing America's border policy.

Hunter Biden's Controversial Actions and Republican Criticism

Larry Kudlow expresses his lack of surprise at Hunter Biden's defiance of the Republican House, suggesting that it was orchestrated by his lawyers and that Joe Biden was aware of it. Kudlow questions the shifting statements made by Joe Biden regarding his involvement in his son's business and raises suspicions about potential money laundering, bribery charges, and influence peddling. He highlights the need for investigations into these matters and speculates that an impeachment investigation may be a more strategic move than an actual impeachment. Kudlow also emphasizes the importance for Republicans to focus on a strong economic growth message and criticizes Biden's handling of the border crisis and foreign policy failures.

"Prosecutors Investigate Allegations of Illicit Funds in Gustavo Petro's Campaign"

Nicolás Petro, the son of Colombian President Gustavo Petro, has admitted to receiving illicit funds that were used for his father's 2022 presidential campaign, according to prosecutors. Nicolás Petro disclosed that he received money from a contractor charged with murder, a former senator convicted of drug trafficking, and a powerful businessman. The revelations could lead to an impeachment investigation or criminal investigation into what the president knew about the campaign money. President Petro denies any connection to the allegations. The arrest of Nicolás Petro comes after leaked audio messages implicated the president's chief of staff and ambassador to Venezuela in possible campaign finance violations.
