(Washington, DC) -- "We have heard enough to be gravely concerned about the President's conduct," says 7th District Minnesota Congresswoman Michelle Fischbach, as House Speaker Kevin McCarthy directs a House committee open an impeachment inquiry. At the center of the investigation are business dealings of the president's son, Hunter, before his father took office. Fischbach says "the American people deserve to know all the facts" and a formal impeachment inquiry is "the next logical step." The White House calls the move "extreme politics at its worst." Speaker McCarthy is making the move on his own, analysts say because he might not have enough Republican votes on the House floor to authorize it.
