　　Open "play"

　　The House Oversight and Accountability Committee held the first hearing of impeachment investigation on 28th, aiming at finally proving Biden’s illegal behavior in overseas business activities engaged by his second son Hunter. The theme of the first hearing is the legal basis of impeachment investigation, and the witnesses summoned are legal and criminal investigation experts.

　　James Comer, the chairman of the committee and a Republican, said at the hearing that Biden had "abused his power" and "there was a mountain of evidence". Jonathan Terry, a witness summoned by Republicans and a law professor at George Washington University in the United States, said that although the current evidence is enough to launch an impeachment investigation, it is not enough to charge Biden. Michael gerhardt, a witness summoned by Democrats and a law professor at the University of North Carolina, believes that the current evidence is not enough to support the impeachment investigation.

　　With the "preparations" in the early stage of the presidential election in the United States next year, the wrestling between the Republican Party and the Democratic Party has become increasingly fierce. Trump, a popular Republican potential candidate, has been criminally prosecuted four times this year, involving the case of "secret affair", "hush money" and suspected of overthrowing the results of the 2020 presidential election. In the Republican-dominated House of Representatives, Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced on the 12th that he would open an impeachment investigation against Biden on the grounds that Biden was suspected of "abusing power, obstructing justice and corruption".

　　Trump and his supporters say Democrats are launching a political offensive in an attempt to prevent Trump from re-entering the White House. The Democratic Party also accused the Republican Party of playing politics against Biden.

　　A White House spokesman said on the 28th that the hearing that day was "an unfounded stunt" and Biden would still "focus on the priorities of the American people rather than such political games". Jamie Ruskin, a Democrat member of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, questioned the legitimacy of the Republican impeachment investigation "without a vote in the House of Representatives" and "without conclusive evidence". "If Republicans get a gun with a smoking muzzle, or even a dripping water gun, they will show it today." Ruskin said, "But they have nothing."

　　After the hearing, Comer instructed to collect more records of private and commercial bank accounts of Hunter and Biden’s younger brother James.

　　Democrats also showed a countdown clock at the hearing, accusing Republicans of continuing to push the impeachment investigation despite the dispute over the appropriation bill, which led to another "shutdown" of the US government. Ruskin said that there are only 62 hours left before "closing the door", "but Republicans are impeaching on the basis of lies that have already gone bankrupt."

　　Talk about it.

　　Biden pointed his finger directly at Trump at an event in Arizona on the 28th, saying that the main potential opponent of next year’s US presidential election is the threat of American democracy. Arizona is a so-called "battlefield state" where the democratic and Republican parties compete fiercely.

　　The day’s activity was to celebrate the opening of the library to commemorate former Republican Senator John McCain who died of illness in 2018. Mccain was Trump’s sworn enemy.

　　According to Agence France-Presse, during Trump’s previous criminal prosecution, Biden has always avoided commenting on Trump’s lawsuit, but now he no longer evades and directly attacks Trump personally.

　　Biden said, "Some dangerous situations are emerging in the United States." "Trump said that the Constitution gives him ‘ The right to do whatever you want ’ … … (He said this) with the heart of revenge. "

　　Biden described Trump and his die-hard supporters as "extremists who have no common democratic beliefs with us".

　　Trump, who mentioned media reports, once called American soldiers captured and killed in the war "fools and losers". Biden asked whether his eldest sons bo Biden and McCain were also "fools and losers". Both of them served in the army, and McCain was captured in the Vietnam War.

　　In response to Biden’s remarks, Trump’s campaign team responded that "the ultra-left Democrats headed by Biden are the biggest threat to democracy in the history of the United States." (Hui Xiaoshuang)
