⚡️Five Biden administration investigations House Republicans pan to launch in 2023

1. Joe Biden and the Afghanistan withdrawal

Rep. James Comer (R-KY), the ranking member on the House Oversight Committee, sent letters to a number of government agencies requesting documentation and other materials related to the troop withdrawal, accusing the Biden administration of committing obstruction.

2. Dr. Anthony Fauci and the COVID-19 pandemic

Republicans have long criticized Fauci for his response to the pandemic, particularly surrounding theories as to how the coronavirus originated and spread from Wuhan, China, in late 2019 and early 2020. GOP lawmakers on the House Energy and Commerce Committee already opened their own investigation into the origins of COVID-19 in 2019, requesting “an independent, expert investigation of the origin of COVID-19,” according to a letter they sent then-National Institutes of Health Director Francis Collins.

Republicans on that committee have since called on the NIH to preserve all records and communications related to the pandemic for review early next year, criticizing the agency for failing to respond to earlier requests for information.

3. Hunter Biden and his laptop

Hunter Biden’s business dealings have long been of interest to the Republican Party, first taking prominence during the 2020 election as the GOP sought to determine whether then-candidate Joe Biden benefited financially from his son’s transactions, pointing to national security concerns.

4. Alejandro Mayorkas and the southern border

The House Judiciary Committee has already notified Mayorkas they will be seeking his testimony early into the next Congress, as well as the testimony of 10 other DHS officials.

5. Merrick Garland and bias within the Department of Justice

In a letter sent to the Department of Justice, House Republicans informed Garland they would be seeking the testimony of 15 officials — the most of any of the departments that received the Nov. 18 notices.
