White House dismisses ‘unfounded’ impeachment inquiry.
The White House Slams McCarthy’s Baseless Impeachment Inquiry
The White House has strongly criticized House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s decision to initiate an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden and his family’s business dealings. Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre dismissed the inquiry as baseless and lacking any evidence of corruption.
“I’m going to refer you to my colleagues over at the counsel’s office on any specifics to the inquiry,” Jean-Pierre stated. “I’m certainly not going to speculate on what has been a baseless inquiry that the House Republicans can’t even really defend themselves and that many House Republicans have said they couldn’t support their own votes.”
Republican Threat Looms for Biden
The White House considers the impeachment inquiry a political move by Republicans and urges them to focus on issues that truly matter to the American people. Jean-Pierre hinted at the possibility of a federal government shutdown if Republicans do not cooperate.
When asked about Biden’s response to the inquiry, Jean-Pierre emphasized that the President is prioritizing important matters such as the economy and cancer research.
While Jean-Pierre refrained from answering questions about the inquiry, Communications Director Ben LaBolt took to social media to criticize McCarthy’s lack of a clear response.
“Speaker McCarthy had 24 hours to come up with an answer about why he reversed his position calling for a vote to proceed on the impeachment inquiry,” LaBolt posted. ”He came up with nothing.”
McCarthy’s announcement of the inquiry overshadowed Rep. Matt Gaetz’s plans to address the House and hold a press call regarding his potential attempt to remove McCarthy as Speaker. Despite McCarthy’s actions, Gaetz remains firm in his belief that McCarthy is not fulfilling the promises made to more conservative Republicans.
