The House Republicans have initiated a formal impeachment hearing against President Joe Biden. The first day of the hearing was dedicated to reviewing the evidence that the Republicans have collected thus far. The House Oversight Committee commenced the impeachment inquiry hearing into President Joe Biden on 28 September.

Accountability Committee, stated, "If Republicans possessed any incriminating evidence, they would have presented it today. However, they have nothing." Jonathan Turley, a law professor at George Washington University called as a witness by the Republicans, expressed his belief that while the House had met the threshold for an inquiry, the current evidence is insufficient to warrant impeachment charges. Turley stated, "I do not believe that the current evidence would support articles of impeachment."

The White House has denied any wrongdoing on behalf of the president, and the probe is politically motivated. Democrats say there is no evidence Biden received any payments or engaged in any improper behavior during his tenure as vice president.

Democrats at a hearing displayed a countdown to a US government shutdown, and questioned why the House has not voted to formally launch an impeachment inquiry.

Meanwhile, President Biden is actively campaigning for a second term in office, potentially facing former president Donald Trump in a contest. It is noteworthy that Mr. Trump is currently undergoing criminal trials on multiple charges, ranging from his attempts to overturn the election results to mishandling classified documents subsequent to his departure from office.
