3:05pm- Rebecca Beitsch and Emily Brooks of The Hill write: “The House GOP on Wednesday formalized its impeachment inquiry into President Biden with a House vote, a step Republicans hope will add legal weight to their demands as the probe moves into a more aggressive end stage.

3:10pm- Hunter Biden defied a Congressional subpoena on Wednesday—opting instead to address the press in a speech outside of the U.S. Capitol. He insisted that his father, President Joe Biden, “was not financially involved” in any of his dealings with foreign businesses. In response, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) said they plan to initiate “contempt” proceedings against Hunter Biden.

3:15pm- On Wednesday, MSNBC’s Monica Alba reported that the Biden Administration is concerned about the “emotional toll” a Hunter Biden drug relapse—triggered by his ongoing legal troubles—would have on his father, President Joe Biden. Could this be the excuse the White House provides for a potential pardon of Hunter? The president’s son has been charged with several tax evasion felonies, as well as federal firearm charges.

3:30pm- While appearing on Fox News with Laura Ingraham, George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley said that Hunter Biden “engaged in legal self-immolation” when he defied a congressional subpoena.

3:40pm- Xi Van Fleet—Author of “Mao’s America: A Survivor’s Warning”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show. During the conversation, she describes the horrors of growing up in Mao’s China. Xi explains there is a dangerous trend of Americans no longer prioritizing protections on our freedoms. She explains, “the CCP can [indefinitely] lockdown a city as big as Shanghai...just shut it down overnight…many people starved to death…a lot committed suicide…Why didn’t it happen in America? It’s because we have the Second Amendment.” You can find Xi’s book here: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/xi-van-fleet/maos-america/9781546006305/?lens=center-street
