BREAKING: Kevin McCarthy to endorse Biden impeachment inquiry

Sources familiar with the matter say he sees the move as a "logical next step" in the investigation into the president and his son.

According to NBC News, details will be provided to lawmakers by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan and House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer during the House Republican Conference on Thursday, the first time the group will meet after the August recess.

Members of the GOP have long hinted that an impeachment inquiry was imminent.

"It only raises more and more questions, and we're gonna have to find the answers," McCarthy said on Monday, referencing recent revelations about the president's conduct.

"This is all information that just has been coming forward that we've been able to find out, but the other information is we find that the Biden family delays everything. It benefits them to delay the information. The American public deserves to know."

The House Oversight Committee has been investigating Hunter Biden for months now, and while his former business partner did testify that Joe Biden was present during a number of phone calls with foreign associates, the then-vice president only discussed benign issue such as the weather.

While some Republicans have expressed a desire to launch an impeachment inquiry, others warned that there is not enough hard evidence against the president to warrant such a procedure.

This is a breaking story and will be updated.
