Editors Note: "Moderate" Republicans are trying to get MAGA Republicans to BACK OFF by offering Impeachment Inquiry in "exchange" for passing a "clean Continuing Resolution" that will not "shut down" the government which will NOT DEFUND DOJ, or Jack Smith's Election Interference, or close the Border, and will keep sending Billions to Ukraine! NO! Hell NO! We want BOTH! We want an Long Painful Impeachment Inquiry of Joe Biden AND we want NO Continuing Resolution! Call your Congressman NOW and Tell them to Stand Strong on the Freedom Caucus's Demands. Watch the video below as Rep. Matt Gaetz calls out McCarthy and makes our case:

“House Republicans have uncovered serious and credible allegations into President Biden's conduct. Taken together these allegations paint a picture of a culture of corruption,” Mr. McCarthy said.
“Today I am directing our house committee to open a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden. This logical next step will give our committees, the full power to gather all the facts and answers for the American public,” Mr. McCarthy said.
The investigation will be led by Reps. James Comer (R-Ky.), Jason Smith (R-Mo.), Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), the chairmen of the oversight, ways and means, and judiciary committees, respectively.
“We will go wherever the evidence takes us,” Mr. McCarthy.
Mr. McCarthy declined to answer reporters' questions at the conclusion of his statement.

White House spokesman for oversight and investigations Ian Sims called the move "extreme politics at its worst."
"House Republicans have been investigating the President for 9 months, and they've turned up no evidence of wrongdoing," Sims wrote on Twitter on Tuesday. (CLICK HERE MR. SIMS TO SEE YOUR LIE OF "NO EVIDENCE" TOTALLY DISPROVEN) "His own GOP members have said so. He vowed to hold a vote to open impeachment, now he flip-flopped because he doesn't have support."
The House Oversight Committee has an ongoing investigation into the Biden family and their alleged foreign business schemes. Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) said on Sept. 7 that emails from the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) were the "final straw" that would generate enough votes in the House to open an investigation.
The agency admitted in August that it held a large number of emails reportedly sent by President Joe Biden under pseudonymous email accounts while he was vice president, according to the conservative nonprofit Southeastern Legal Foundation.
The group filed a lawsuit against NARA, compelling the agency to hand over the roughly 5,400 emails potentially linked to the fake email accounts which were allegedly sent under three personal pseudonymous email accounts: Robin Ware, Robert L. Peters, and JRB Ware.
A spokesperson for NARA declined to comment on the alleged emails when contacted by The Epoch Times at the time.

Mr. McCarthy’s announcement came on the day the House resumed session following a nearly seven-week summer break. It is also 19 days from a government shutdown if the House and Senate cannot pass the 12 required appropriations bills to fund operations beyond Sept. 30, the end of the fiscal year.
Mr. McCarthy alleged that President Biden lied to the American people about his knowledge of his family's foreign business dealings. The speaker said that witnesses have testified that President Biden joined a number of phone calls and had other interactions that resulted in the flow of millions of dollars into the business accounts of Hunter Biden and his business partners.“We know that bank records show that nearly $20 million in payments were directed to the Biden family members and associates through various shell companies. The Treasury Department alone has more than 150 transactions involving the Biden family and other business associates that were flagged as suspicious activity by U.S. banks,” Mr. McCarthy said, adding that an FBI informant has alleged that a bribe was made to the Biden family.
“Despite the serious allegations, it appears that the president's family has been offered special treatment by Biden's own administration, treatment that not otherwise would have received if they were not related to the President,” Mr. McCarthy said. “These are allegations of abuse of power obstruction and corruption. And they warrant further investigation by the House of Representatives.”
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) criticized the announcement, calling it "politics on steroids."
"There's no substance to this," Ms. Warren said. (CLICK HERE ELIZABETH TO HEAR ALL THE SUBSTANCE TO THESE CHARGES) "This is all about speaker McCarthy bowing down to a handful of extremists who will cost him his job if he doesn't get just as wild and out there as they already are."
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), asked if he supports the inquiry, said, "that's the House's undertaking."
"They're gonna have an inquiry. There's been no allegation of a high crime or misdemeanor that would meet the constitutional test," Mr. Romney said. (HEY MITT, IF THESE AREN'T HIGH CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS THAN THERE IS NO SUCH THING!) "So that's a very different matter, and we'll see if that arises."
