Democratic presidential candidate Rep. Dean Phillips expressed concerns that the GOP House impeachment inquiry into President Biden’s potential involvement in his son’s overseas business deals could harm Biden’s electability.
Phillips criticized Biden’s handling of the situation and called for a serious primary contender to challenge him in the 2024 nomination.
Recent polls indicate public skepticism surrounding Biden’s family business interests, with House Republicans aiming to initiate a formal impeachment inquiry. (Trending: LeBron James Shares Gun Advice For Americans)
“I don’t see the evidence of it, but yes, when your own son and your own brother are clearly, at the very least unethical and at worst, doing illegal things — my goodness, of course the country pays attention to it,” Phillips said.
“People do believe that it perhaps makes him unelectable — somehow, it conflates him with the Trump family’s indiscretions.”
The White House has been accused of obstructing investigations into Biden’s alleged mishandling of classified documents and family influence-peddling schemes.
“The White House continues to obstruct Congress’ quest for information about President Biden’s mishandling of classified documents and his involvement in his family’s influence-peddling schemes,” a House Oversight Committee spokesperson said.
“Instead of cooperating with Congress, the White House created a war room with two dozen staffers to combat our constitutional oversight and send snarky letters.”
“The American people deserve better from the White House and we will continue to provide the transparency and accountability they are owed.”
Biden and the White House maintain cooperation with the investigation while denying any wrongdoing.
“As we have said from the beginning, the president and the White House are cooperating with this investigation, and as it has been appropriate, we have provided relevant updates publicly, being as transparent as we can, consistent with protecting and preserving the integrity of the investigation,” White House spokesperson for investigations Ian Sams stated.
