On Wednesday, December 13, 2023, the House of Representatives officially approved an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden.
The vote, tallying 221-212, was strictly along party lines, with all Republicans backing the inquiry and all Democrats rejecting it.
The resolution tasks the Judiciary, Oversight, and Ways and Means Committees with investigating potential grounds for impeachment.

With this vote, we are now in better legal standing to fight the White House’s obstruction.

Lies? Joe Biden has yet to negate one single fact that the House Oversight Committee has uncovered.
I don’t think that answer is going to work for Joe.
On Wednesday, the White House issued a combative statement from Joe Biden regarding the “Baseless House Republican Impeachment Stunt,” claiming that “even Republicans in Congress admit [the inquiry] is not supported by facts” and that the American people “need their leaders in Congress to take action on important priorities for the nation and world.”
