Kevin McCarthy to make statement as he is expected to endorse Biden impeachment inquiry – live updates | Donald Trump

Kevin McCarthy to give statement ahead of expected endorsement of Biden impeachment inquiry

House speaker Kevin McCarthy plans to tell Republicans that the House has enough evidence to justify impeachment proceedings against Joe Biden, according to multiple reports.

McCarthy plans to tell his conference the impeachment inquiry is the “the logical next step” in order to obtain bank records and other documents from the president and his son, Hunter Biden, Punchbowl News reported.

In recent weeks, McCarthy has privately told Republicans he plans to pursue an impeachment inquiry into Biden and hopes to start the process by the end of September, sources told CNN.

As Donald Trump faces four separate criminal cases, House Republicans have floated the impeachment of Biden as they investigate his son Hunter’s business dealings. Republicans have been unable to substantiate wrongdoing by either Biden.

McCarthy suggested last month the House would pursue impeachment if it did not obtain access to certain documents, even though Republicans had never asked for some of the documents at issue, according to the Hill.

McCarthy is expected to give a press conference at 11am ET. We will be following it live here.

Key events

Kevin McCarthy calls for Biden impeachment inquiry

House speaker Kevin McCarthy has called for an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.

Speaking to reporters, he said:

I am directing our House committee to open a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.

More to follow.

Sam Levine

Impeachment would require a majority vote in the House – where Republicans have a slim advantage – to formally charge Joe Biden, then a two-thirds vote in the Senate, which is controlled by Democrats, to convict him. It is therefore extremely unlikely to succeed.

Far-right Republicans in the House have agitated for impeaching the president but those who could face tough re-election battles next fall have been more skeptical.

“So the question to me right now is: do the investigations … are they producing enough facts and evidence that warrant taking it to the next step?” Mike Lawler, a New York Republican in a highly competitive district, told NBC News in August.

I don’t think it’s there at the moment, but these committees are doing their job.

In the Senate, some more moderate Republicans have also expressed skepticism about impeachment. Mitt Romney of Utah told HuffPost last week:

I haven’t seen any evidence at this stage to suggest he’s met the constitutional test for impeachment.

Even on the right of the Republican Senate caucus, enthusiasm for impeachment is scarce. Alabama senator Tommy Tuberville, a leading Trump ally, told reporters last week he was “not for going through another damn trial to be honest with you. [We] did that here with Trump.”

The report by the Congressional Integrity Project offers an anatomy of a fake scandal, detailing a series of exaggerated assertions that have shriveled under scrutiny.

They include James Comer, the chairman of the House of Representatives’ oversight committee, saying at his first press conference that he had evidence of “federal crimes committed”, relentlessly invoking “deep state” conspiracy theories and claiming that his whistleblowers “fear for their lives”.

The report states:

After months of political stunts, dozens of hearings, transcribed interviews, and memos, and despite hours on Fox peddling conspiracy theories, Comer and his Maga crew have failed to find a single shred of evidence linking President Biden to any of their lurid accusations.

In fact, Republicans have been forced to walk back claim after claim.

For months, the report says, Comer talked to the media about four individuals he claimed were “whistleblowers”, a term increasingly hijacked by the right. It adds:

Problem is – they weren’t whistleblowers and there were only two people.

Comer was eventually factchecked by his own colleague on the House oversight committee. Democrat Jamie Raskin wrote to him:

The two individuals your staff specifically identified as the individuals they understood to have been referenced during your March 6 Fox News interview, are not whistleblowers … Your repeated statements about ‘four people’ suggest that either you have intentionally misrepresented the Committee’s investigative progress to your conservative audience or that key investigative steps have been deliberately withheld from Committee Democrats.

Kevin McCarthy and the GOP House leadership scheduled a closed-door session for Thursday morning so that members could get an update on the investigations by House judiciary committee chair Jim Jordan and House oversight committee chair Jamie Comer, according to the Punchbowl News report.

On Monday, a report by the Congressional Integrity Project said Comer has spent “eight months of abject failure” in trying to prove Joe Biden guilty of wrongdoing. Comer has repeatedly overhyped allegations of bribery and corruption against Biden without once producing hard evidence, the report said.

Comer has been leading an aggressive investigation into unsubstantiated claims that Biden was involved in his son Hunter Biden’s foreign business affairs during his time as vice-president.

A CNN/SSRS poll this week found that 61% of Americans believe that Biden did play such a role, including 42% who think he acted illegally. But establishing the link between father and son has proved an elusive holy grail.

We’re currently waiting for House speaker Kevin McCarthy to deliver an expected statement endorsing an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden.

McCarthy “has been moving in the direction of an impeachment inquiry, calling it a ‘natural step forward’ for the House GOP to gather more facts”, according to NBC News.

Yet this morning, Punchbowl News reported that McCarthy is set to tell House Republicans later this week that an impeachment inquiry is the “logical next step” in the GOP’s investigations into the president and his son, Hunter Biden.

Kevin McCarthy faces a ‘perfect storm’ as a shutdown looms

The House returns from its summer recess today as the speaker, Kevin McCarthy faces a collision course of difficult challenges – avoiding a costly government shutdown, and addressing growing calls on the right to launch an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden.

With just 12 legislative days left before the end of the fiscal year, the Republican-controlled House must quickly pass some kind of spending package to keep the federal government open after 30 September.

If it does not, the government will shut down for the first time in nearly five years, furloughing federal employees and stalling many crucial programs.

McCarthy has indicated his preference to pass a continuing resolution, but members of the hard-right House freedom caucus insist they will not back a continuing resolution unless the speaker agrees to several significant policy concessions, such as increased border security and an impeachment inquiry into Biden over the business dealings of the president’s son, Hunter Biden.

Given House Republicans’ narrow majority and a new rule allowing any single member of the chamber to force a vote on removing the speaker, McCarthy’s handling of this fraught situation could determine whether he loses his gavel after just eight months in power.

Ken Buck, a Colorado Republican congressman, said in Sunday interview with MSNBC’s Jen Psaki:

There’s a perfect storm brewing in the House in the near future, in September.

He added:

On the one hand, we’ve got to pass a [short-term funding bill]. And we also have the impeachment issue. And we also have members of the House, led by my good friend, Chip Roy, who are concerned about policy issues. So you take those three things put together, and Kevin McCarthy, the speaker, has made promises on each of those issues to different groups. And now it is all coming due at the same time.

Former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang remains listed as the co-chair for the Forward Party, which he launched after leaving the Democratic party to become an independent in 2021.

Yang slammed the idea of the 2024 presidential election shaping up to be a Donald Trump vs Joe Biden rematch in the Politico interview, describing the situation as “terribly unrepresentative and borderline ridiculous” and pointing to their ages.

I mean, you’re talking about two guys whose combined age is 160. In a country of 330 million people, you would choose these two gentlemen at this stage? I mean, it makes zero sense.

Andrew Yang has ‘had conversations’ with third-party No Labels group

Andrew Yang, the former Democratic presidential candidate, confirmed he has had “conversations” with the centrist group No Labels about its third-party presidential bid.

Yang, in a Politico interview published yesterday evening, said:

I’ve had conversations with various folks who are associated with No Labels.

He avoided directly answering if the group had specifically approached him about running as a possible presidential candidate, but said he and the group “have a lot of friends and people in common”.

Yang, who ran for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020, said he is an “anyone-but-Trump guy”, adding:

I would not run for president, if I thought that my running would be counterproductive, or if it would increase the chances of someone like Donald Trump becoming president again.

Should the US district judge Tanya Chutkan decline to remove herself from the case, legal experts said Donald Trump could seek to have the decision reviewed and petition the US court of appeals for the DC circuit for a writ of mandamus, a judicial order to a lower-court judge compelling an action such as recusal.

The appeal could be accompanied with a motion to stay Chutkan’s rulings pending appeal, which could delay the pre-trial process and push back the current trial date set for March 2024 while that litigation continues.

That kind of postponement would be beneficial to Trump, who has made clear that his overarching legal strategy for each of his criminal cases is to seek delay – preferably until after the 2024 presidential election as part of an effort to insulate himself from the charges.

The consequences of an extended delay could be far-reaching. If the case is not adjudicated until after the 2024 election and Trump is re-elected, he could try to pardon himself or direct the attorney general to have the justice department drop the case in its entirety.

It was uncertain whether US district judge Tanya Chutkan’s two public statements would satisfy the high bar for removal from the 2020 election interference prosecution case.

Notably, the motion by Donald Trump’s legal team did not complain about any of Chutkan’s pre-trial rulings to date, perhaps because in a handful of instances, she has ruled against prosecutors.

The judge, an Obama appointee, came into the case with a reputation of being particularly tough in January 6-related prosecutions after she handed down sentences in some cases that were longer than had been requested by the justice department.

Still, Chutkan is far from the only federal judge in DC – or elsewhere in the country, for that matter – who has suggested Trump might have culpability for the Capitol attack during sentencing hearings.

Filing a recusal motion is not necessarily uncommon and federal judges tend not to take offense, former prosecutors and defense attorneys have said, even if Trump files them almost as a matter of routine. Recently, Trump sought to recuse the state court judge in his Manhattan criminal case, which was denied.

Trump asks judge to recuse herself in federal 2020 election subversion case

Donald Trump’s legal team on Monday asked the federal judge overseeing the 2020 election interference prosecution against him to remove herself from the case.

Lawyers for the former president argued that previous public comments by the US district judge Tanya Chutkan about the former president’s culpability in the January 6 Capitol attack were disqualifying.

The recusal motion, filed to and against Chutkan, faces major legal hurdles: to succeed, Trump must show a “reasonable person” would conclude from just her remarks – but not any of her actual rulings – that she was unable to preside impartially.

Trump has long complained that the judge assigned to the case was biased against him because of her previous comments about Trump in other January 6 riot defendant cases and his legal team weighed filing the motion for weeks, two people familiar with deliberations told the Guardian.

The nine-page motion identified two episodes where Chutkan remarked on her opinion about Trump’s responsibility in instigating the Capitol attack, which Trump’s lawyers argued gave rise to the appearance of potential bias or prejudice against the former president.

The first instance came in October 2022 when she said, referring to January 6:

And the people who mobbed that Capitol were there in fealty, in loyalty, to one man … It’s a blind loyalty to one person who, by the way, remains free to this day.

Trump’s lawyers argued that those remarks, which came during sentencing of a rioter who stormed the Capitol, suggested Chutkan believed Trump should have been prosecuted and jailed in a pre-judgement of guilt that alone was disqualifying.

The second instance was when the judge told another January 6 rioter in December 2021:

The people who exhorted you and encouraged you and rallied you to go and take action and to fight have not been charged.

She added, “I have my opinions,” but that was out of her control.

Trump’s lawyers argued that those remarks suggested Chutkan agreed with that rioter’s defense attorney, who had said Trump had falsely convinced his supporters that the 2020 election was fraudulent and that they needed to take steps to stop the peaceful transition of power.

US intelligence officials have accused Vladimir Putin of personally authorizing influence operations against Democratic candidates in support of Donald Trump in both the 2016 and 2020 US presidential elections.

Yevgeny Prigozhin, a former Putin ally who also managed online influence operations, admitted in November that he had interfered in the US elections. He said in the run-up to the US midterms:

Gentlemen, we interfered, we are interfering and we will interfere.

Prigozhin was killed last month when his private jet crashed en route from Moscow to St Petersburg.

Putin made the remarks during an economic forum in the far eastern city of Vladivostok, where he is also due to hold meetings with Kim Jong-un, the North Korean leader, this week.

Russian president Vladimir Putin, speaking earlier today, said significant changes in the US-Russia relationship were unlikely regardless of who wins next year’s presidential election.

What to expect from the future, no matter who the president is, it’s hard for us to say, but it’s unlikely that anything will change radically.

He claimed the Biden administration was “hammering into people’s heads” that Russia was an existential adversary and ”it will be very difficult for them to somehow turn this whole ship” in the other direction.

Speaking at an economic forum in Russia’s far-eastern city of Vladivostok, Putin also discussed Moscow’s “amazing” relations with Beijing and whether he would run for re-election in 2024. Please do follow our Russia-Ukraine war live blog for more.

Donald Trump, in an interview with Fox Business last month, boasted about his relationship with Vladimir Putin and claimed the Russian leader would have never gone into Ukraine if he was US president because he was “the apple of his eye”.

Trump said:

Putin would have never gone into Ukraine, but that was just on my relationship with him. My personality over his. [He] would have never gone in. I used to speak to him. I was the apple of his eye, but I said ‘Don’t ever do it.’ It was tough stuff there, but he would have never done it.

In a previous interview with Fox News, Trump claimed he had a plan to stop the war in Ukraine within 24 hours of taking back the White House.

Trump said he had a good relationship with both Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, and Putin. He said:

I would tell Zelenskiy, no more. You got to make a deal. I would tell Putin, if you don’t make a deal, we’re going to give him a lot. We’re going to [give Ukraine] more than they ever got if we have to. I will have the deal done in one day. One day.

Speaking earlier today in Vladivostok, the Russian leader said:

We hear that Mr Trump says that he will solve pressing problems in a few days, including the Ukrainian crisis. Well, this cannot but bring happiness. This is good.

Putin: Trump’s prosecution ‘good for Russia’

Here’s a clip of Russia’s president Vladimir Putin discussing the criminal cases against Donald Trump while at a forum in Russia’s far eastern city of Vladivostok.

Putin said the prosecution of the former US president was good from Russia’s point of view. He said:

As for the prosecution of Trump, for us what is happening in today’s conditions, in my opinion, is good because it shows the rottenness of the American political system, which cannot pretend to teach others democracy.

He continued:

In this sense, if they are trying to fight us in some way, it’s good, because it shows who is fighting us. It shows, as they said back in Soviet times, ‘the bestial face of American imperialism, the bestial grin’.

Putin speaks out about the cases against Donald Trump:

“This shows the whole rottenness of the American political system, which cannot claim to teach others about democracy. What’s happening with Trump is a persecution of a political rival with political motives.” pic.twitter.com/oouu6rQwyQ

Putin claims Trump’s criminal cases show ‘rottenness’ of US politics

Good morning, US politics blog readers. Russian president Vladimir Putin waded into the debate over the criminal charges facing Donald Trump, saying that the cases against the former US president amount to political “persecution” that exposes the fundamental “rottenness” of the American political system.

Putin, speaking at an Eastern Economic Forum gathering in Russia’s Pacific coast city of Vladivostok on Tuesday, said the prosecution of Trump was good for Russia “because it shows the rottenness of the American political system, which cannot pretend to teach others democracy”.

The Russian leader added:

Everything that is happening with Trump is the persecution of a political rival for political reasons. That’s what it is. And this is being done in front of the public of the United States and the whole world.

Trump currently faces a total of 91 charges across four criminal cases in Georgia, Florida, New York and Washington DC. Opinion polls indicate that he holds a commanding lead over his rivals to become the Republican party’s candidate in the 2024 presidential election.

Both during and after his four-year term in the White House, Trump repeatedly touted having a friendly relationship with Putin. Trump has also claimed he could end the war in Ukraine in a matter of days if re-elected president.

Here’s what else we’re watching today:

  • 10am Eastern time. The Senate will meet and hold a confirmation for Tanya Bradsher’s nomination as deputy veterans affairs secretary.

  • 12pm. The House will meet to take up various bills, including resolutions calling for the release of Paul Whelan and Evan Gershkovich in Russia.

  • 3pm. The House rules committee meets to prepare the annual defense spending bill for the floor.

  • 3pm. The House freedom caucus will hold a news conference on government funding.
