In fact, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) claimed back in August that there\u2064 is a &#8220;mountain of evidence&#8221; to support \u2063impeachment.<\/p>\n<p>House \u200dSpeaker Kevin \u2062McCarthy (R-CA) confirmed on Friday that he would not skip a floor vote \u2064to initiate an impeachment inquiry into\u200c Biden. McCarthy \u2064emphasized the seriousness of such an inquiry, stating that House Republicans would not take it lightly or exploit \u2064it for political gain.
