President Joe Biden’s top White House lawyer is encouraging Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson to end his chamber’s efforts to impeach the Democratic president over unproven claims he benefited from the business dealings of his son and brother
President Joe Biden arrives at the White House from a campaign trip to Michigan, Thursday, March 14, 2024, in Washington. President Joe Biden's top White House lawyer is encouraging House Speaker Mike Johnson to end his chamber's efforts to impeach the president over unproven claims that he benefited from the business dealings of his son and brother.
The rare communique from the White House counsel’s office comes as Republicans, their House majority shrinking ever further with early departures, have hit a near-standstill in their Biden impeachment inquiry. “Does it reach the ‘treason, high crimes and misdemeanor’ standard?” Johnson said, referring to the Constitution’s high bar for impeachment. “Everyone will have to make that evaluation when we pull all the evidence together.”
"The White House does not get to decide how impeachment gets resolved, that is for Congress to decide,” Raj Shah said in a statement.
