Why Do Republicans Want to Impeach Joe Biden? Here's What Happened

Kevin McCarthy's announcement supporting an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden has thrust forward House Republican investigations examining alleged business connections between the president and his son, Hunter Biden.

While investigations have so far not produced new, compelling evidence of improper business links between Joe and Hunter, the move will provide the GOP with additional investigatory powers, as well as set up the path for potential impeachment.

Newsweek has examined how far McCarthy's announcement has changed matters and whether the president could leave office, among other questions.
