The White House refutes Republican accusations: Biden is "absolutely right"
According to Agence France Presse on September 13th, after Republican lawmakers launched an impeachment investigation against President Biden, the White House stated on the same day that Republican accusations against Biden were "baseless.".
When asked about the impeachment investigation, White House press secretary Karina Jean Pierre told reporters, "They've been investigating the President all year round... but they haven't produced any evidence to prove what he did wrong, nothing. That's because the President has never done anything wrong."
According to reports, Kevin McCarthy, the Republican Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, "succumbed to strong pressure from the far right within the party" and authorized the launch of an impeachment investigation into Biden on the 12th.
Republican congressmen accused Biden of "lying" to the American people about his son Hunter Biden's controversial business deal, but Jean Pierre said that Republicans did not even have enough support in the House of Representatives to approve the impeachment investigation vote. "Even Republicans in the House of Representatives have said that there is no evidence," she said. "This is a political trick."
The report points out that this impeachment investigation was conducted in a situation where Biden is facing lower approval ratings in polls, and he is likely to confront former President Trump in next year's presidential election.
According to Reuters, Biden previously ignored questions from reporters about the impeachment investigation. Later on the 13th, Biden stated that Republicans wanted to impeach him because they wanted the government to shut down.
