FIRST ON FOX — House Republicans will hold their first hearing in the impeachment inquiry investigating allegations of corruption and abuse of power against President Biden next Thursday, Fox News has learned.
The House Oversight Committee chaired by Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., is likely to subpoena the bank records of Hunter Biden and James Biden this week.
Next week’s hearing will be the first hearing since House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) formalized an impeachment inquiry last week.
However, Fox News was told that the hearing does not necessarily break any new ground. It will only be a review of the existing evidence and explain the status of the inquiry, said familiar sources.
Fox News has also learned that the Oversight Committee plans to subpoena the bank records of Hunter Biden and James Biden this week.
As for the timing of the general inquiry, Fox told leaders they wanted to wrap it up before the main season.
Biden has faced accusations that he was involved in foreign business deals set up by his son Hunter Biden, who allegedly promised his father to use his public office to grant favors in exchange for payments.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
