The August 2024 House Republican report alleged Joe Biden committed impeachable offenses through influence peddling and obstruction but did not show direct evidence of criminal activity by the President. It relied on circumstantial evidence—SARs, bank records, and associate testimony—that failed to prove Joe Biden personally benefited from or influenced policy for his family’s $27 million in foreign payments. Discredited claims (e.g., Smirnov’s bribery story), lack of specific policy links, and testimony denying Biden’s involvement (e.g., Archer, Hunter) undermine the report’s criminal allegations. While ethical questions persist about the Biden family’s business practices, no federal crimes by Joe Biden were substantiated, and no charges have been filed. The report’s focus on impeachment, not prosecution, and the absence of a House vote reflect its political rather than legal weight.
