Newly minted House Speaker Mike Johnson came out to state that US president Joe Biden lied about his involvement in his family’s business affairs and engaged in a coverup, with the speaker Mike Johnson vowing that the impeachment inquiry into the president would continue as he now wields the power of the gavel.

Mr. Johnson made the remarks on the 26th of October during an interview, in which he said that removing President Biden from office is a real possibility in light of the evidence that has emerged suggesting that the president may have engaged in bribery.

Mr. Johnson referred to evidence that includes bank records showing tens of millions of dollars paid to various shell corporations linked to Biden family members, including the president’s son, Hunter Biden.

While President Biden has denied any involvement in his son’s business affairs, the GOP-led House Oversight Committee has released over 20 examples of evidence tying the president to Hunter Biden’s business dealings.
