House Republicans are holding their first impeachment inquiry hearing on Thursday, fueled by allegations President Joe Biden has financially benefited from his family’s foreign business dealings.

GOP lawmakers have long targeted Hunter Biden’s work overseas. But while investigators have produced evidence revealing the president’s son and his associates made millions from the affairs, they have yet to produce concrete evidence that shows the president personally benefited from those dealings.

Republican lawmakers have called three witnesses for the Thursday hearing, including a forensic accountant, and former assistant attorney general and a legal scholar. They have also vowed to subpoena Hunter Biden and Joe Biden’s brother, James Biden’s, bank records as early as this week.
