After a bumpy start, the new Congress is working to get down to business launching investigations and deciding which lawmakers will sit on certain committees

In the ever-growing classified document scandal involving a sitting President—U.S. President Joe Biden, the DOJ is continuing with its ongoing investigation.

This comes after FBI agents searched the President’s beach house earlier this week.

While no additional classified materials were found—officials are looking into whether classified information was transferred to notebooks.

Meanwhile, according to reports, the FBI is set to search former vice President Mike Pence’s Indiana home for additional classified materials in the coming days.

Back on Capitol Hill, the GOP has ousted Democrat Ilhan Omar from the powerful foreign affairs committee over her history of antisemitic and anti-American remarks.

Long-promised investigation into the Biden family and alleged misuse of powerful will begin next week. The Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, Rep. Jim Jordan, discussed what they will focus on during their investigation.

“Is how big government worked with big tech to keep that information from the American people, starting with those 51 former intel officials who wrote that now famous line, that ‘he Hunter Biden laptop story has all the earmarks of a Russian information operation,'” he said.

And John Kerry, the President’s Climate Envoy has been informed, he too is under investigation by the House for secretive negotiations with the Chinese Communist Party.
