WASHINGTON: The Republican-led US House of Representatives will hold its first hearing on Thursday in its impeachment inquiry against Democratic President Joe Biden, two days before Congress's deadline to avert a government shutdown.
Lawmakers will hear from a forensic accountant, a former US Justice Department official and a law professor. At the center of the investigation are allegations that Biden, as vice president, pressured Ukraine to fire a top prosecutor because the prosecutor was investigating Burisma, a company for which Hunter Biden was on the board of directors.
On Tuesday, the House Oversight Committee said it had obtained bank wires from Chinese nationals sent to Hunter, listing Joe Biden's home address in Delaware as the destination, before he was president. It is not clear if Biden received the money.
