Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy joined Fox News "Sunday Morning Futures" this week to discuss the current investigation being conducted by the GOP into President Joe Biden.

In addition to speaking to the potential of conduct by the executive branch, McCarthy also talked on the spending policy being implemented by the Biden administration, as Fox News reported.

McCarthy stated in his comments that the Republican Party has lately come "closer" to starting an impeachment inquiry against President Biden.

This is an endeavor to hold the United States government "accountable" that is now being pursued by the new House Speaker, Mike Johnson.

McCarthy's Comments

"No one in America would have known that President Biden has lied, that they did receive money from China…that he did get involved in the business dealings," McCarthy said during his Sunday interview.

"When he went to Cafe Milano, his son got a new Porsche and $3 million was sent to him. We have systematically followed every place the facts have taken us each and every day. And now it's moved even closer because now we've got the subpoenas going in to get the bank statements.

"We found all of this, the shell companies no one knew about prior. This is important," the California lawmaker said.

The Current Speaker's Take

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said in remarks to Fox News Digital that he believes Bidne is taking part in an "ongoing cover-up" and has "lied repeatedly" about knowledge and involvement with first-son Hunter Biden's business dealings.

The House Speaker told the publication that the impeachment inquiry against the current president will continue "methodically" and without a "predetermined" outcome.

"We are the rule of law team, and so we have to respect and regard due process and do this in a way that the founders would have intended," he said.

"Impeachment is an awesome power that Congress has, and it is not intended to be, nor should it be, used as a political tool to be wielded lightly."

The newly minted House Speaker added, "We take this very seriously," going on to say that Republicans continue investigating and "collecting evidence and following the truth and that evidence wherever it leads."

"We’ve not predetermined the outcome of this. We’ve not pre-judged it," he said. "But I think everyone can see how it is unfolding," he added.

Johnson, who was formerly a Constitutional lawyer, has said that the process of impeachment was "We’ve not predetermined the outcome of this. We’ve not pre-judged it," he said. "But I think everyone can see how it is unfolding."
