Vậy là tự nhiên lại đón ông già sắp bị luận tội

Speaker (chủ tịch hạ viện) Kevin McCarthy on Tuesday opened an impeachment (luận tội) inquiry into President Biden, working to appease (xoa dịu) far-right lawmakers (nhà lập pháp cực hữu) who have threatened to oust him if he fails to accede to (chấp nhận) their demands for deep spending cuts (cắt giảm mạnh chi tiêu) that would force a government shutdown (đóng cửa chính phủ) at the end of the month.

Mr. McCarthy’s decision to unilaterally announce (đơn phương công bố) an impeachment investigation with no formal House vote entwined the Republican investigations into Mr. Biden with the funding fight that is rattling the Capitol. It appeared to be a bid to (nỗ lực nhằm) quell a brewing rebellion (dập tắt cuộc nổi loạn đang bùng phát) among ultraconservative critics who have accused the speaker of not taking a hard enough line on spending, by complying with their demands to more aggressively (quyết liệt) pursue the president.

Mr. McCarthy said he would task three committees — Oversight, Judiciary, and Ways and Means — with carrying out the inquiry into the president and his family as Republicans hunt for evidence of financial wrongdoing (hành vi sai trái tài chính) or corruption (tham nhũng). After months of digging, Republicans have found no such proof, though they argue they have enough information to warrant more investigation.

Mr. McCarthy’s announcement appeared to clear the way for House investigators to issue subpoenas (trát đòi ra hầu toà) for the bank records of Mr. Biden and his family members.
