House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said over the weekend that Democrats were “very concerned” over the prospect that President Joe Biden could soon be impeached by the Republican-controlled chamber.

McCarthy made the remarks during a Sunday interview with Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures” when asked what additional evidence Republicans were seeking in their investigation into the Biden family and whether they were bribed in exchange for getting a Ukrainian prosecutor fired from investigating Burisma, where Hunter Biden was on the board.

“We find new information each week,” he said. “We did not know about the whistleblowers coming forth. We did not know of all these times that the president lied to the American public. Each step we take contradicts what the Bidens had said before. Could you imagine being a sitting vice president, and your family’s members set up 20 shell companies?”

“And then they deal with foreign countries, that you have got 16 of 17 payments from Romania while you’re vice president,” he continued. “And then we have the vice president, now president, claiming that he utilized American tax dollars to withhold from Ukraine to get a prosecutor fired.”

McCarthy said that lawmakers learned during their summer recess about the amount of pressure that Hunter Biden and one his business partners was under to get the prosecutor removed from investigating the company.

“So there’s a lot of questions still. And to be able to get the answers to these questions, you would need an impeachment inquiry to empower Congress, Republicans and Democrats, to be able to get the answers that the American people deserve to know,” he continued. “I have had Democrats now tell me they’re very concerned because they back this president based upon what he told America. And with each turn, we find that is not true.”

Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) let President Joe Biden’s family have it during a recent appearance on Fox News’ “Hannity,” saying that Americans being lectured about “privilege” by Biden was “like being lectured about gun safety by Alec Baldwin.”

Kennedy argued that the case surrounding President Biden’s embattled son Hunter Biden was primarily rooted in the intersection of “privilege and sleaze,” and went on to lay out how he believed Hunter was the prime example of “privilege.”

“Huntergate is about two things: privilege and sleaze,” Kennedy began. “First, the privilege. President Biden and many members of the media lecture us incessantly about the injustice of privilege, especially so-called ‘white privilege.’ But to me, that’s like being lectured about gun safety by Alec Baldwin.”

Kennedy went on to point out that while the president and other members of his party routinely lecture Americans about privilege, “they never mention Hunter Biden, who is the epitome of privilege.”

“How did Hunter Biden earn those millions of dollars?” Kennedy asked then, referencing money the younger Biden had raked in through foreign business deals and time spent on the board of Burisma Holding. He then asked how smart Hunter could have been if he surrendered the now infamous laptop to a stranger despite the sensitive – and incriminating information — he’d stored on it.

“How smart is it to try to deduct your hookers on your federal income tax?” he asked. “The next time we are lectured about privilege, I want people to remember that.”

Kennedy then pivoted to his second point, saying that he knew the White House’s position was that Joe Biden had called Hunter and talked to his business partners “about the weather” because he was such a devoted father.

“If you believe that, you will never own your own home,” Kennedy said. “At a minimum. At a minimum, the evidence brought forth by the House and by Senator Grassley, by the way, in the Senate, is clarion clear that President Biden was well aware of what his son was doing, and he aggressively enabled it.”
