In a damning report, House Republicans have accused President Joe Biden of engaging in “impeachable conduct” by allegedly abusing his office to enrich his family. The 292-page report, obtained by Fox News Digital, is the culmination of months of investigation by the House Oversight, Judiciary, and Ways and Means Committees, which have been leading the impeachment inquiry against the president.
The report claims there is “overwhelming evidence” that Biden participated in a conspiracy to monetize his position of public trust. Republicans allege that Biden’s family and their business associates received tens of millions of dollars from foreign interests, who believed these payments would grant them access to and influence over the then-vice president.
The committees detailed that more than $27 million flowed into the Biden family’s coffers from foreign individuals or entities since 2014. Additionally, it is alleged that Biden’s position as vice president was leveraged to secure over $8 million in loans from Democratic benefactors, many of which remain unpaid, with missing or unproduced paperwork.
Republicans assert that President Biden’s involvement in these activities was not passive. The report outlines instances where Biden attended dinners and spoke on the phone with his family’s foreign business partners, including high-profile figures like Russian oligarch Yelena Baturina, who wired $3.5 million to a firm linked to Hunter Biden after such a meeting.
The report further claims that Biden’s participation in these activities constitutes impeachable conduct, as he allegedly placed the welfare of his family above that of the United States. Republicans also accused Biden of mishandling classified information during his vice presidency, removing sensitive documents from the White House without proper authority, a matter that Special Counsel Robert Hur investigated but did not recommend charges.
The allegations also extend to Biden’s involvement in what Republicans describe as a conspiracy to conceal this conduct. The report suggests that foreign money was laundered through complex financial transactions and that Biden’s family went to great lengths to obscure the origins of these funds.
The report concludes by referencing the Constitution’s remedy for a president’s “flagrant abuse of office”—impeachment. However, while it lays out the evidence gathered, it stops short of formally recommending impeachment at this stage. House Speaker Mike Johnson praised the committees’ work, urging Americans to read the report and consider the implications of the alleged conduct.
House Republicans initiated the impeachment inquiry in mid-2023, with the full House of Representatives formalizing the process in December 2023. The inquiry gained momentum after Biden suspended his re-election campaign following a difficult first presidential debate against former President Trump. Despite the serious allegations, the path forward remains uncertain, as the report did not specify when or if articles of impeachment will be brought to the House floor.
