STORYLINE:
U.S. House Republicans on Wednesday voted to authorize impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, in a 221-212 vote along party lines.
"The impeachment power resides solely with the House of Representatives," Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, a hardliner within the Republican Party, told reporters.
"If a majority of the House now says we're in an official impeachment inquiry as part of our constitutional duty to do oversight, that carries weight. That's going to help us get these witnesses in," said the Ohio Republican, one of the leaders of the impeachment push.
Republicans hope that the impeachment inquiry vote would give them better legal standing to hold the president's son Hunte
