Original title: Partisanship intensifies in the United States, and political turmoil aggravates social dilemmas
McCarthy, the Republican speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, recently announced that he is asking the relevant committees of the House of Representatives to launch a formal impeachment investigation into President Biden. Partisanship in the United States is intensifying, and domestic politics are becoming increasingly turbulent.
McCarthy said that the U.S. House Oversight and Accountability Committee’s investigation of Biden family members found that the Biden family has a “culture of corruption” and that President Biden may be suspected of “abuse of power, obstruction of justice, corruption” and other behaviors. According to reports, the investigation into the Biden family mainly focuses on his son Hunter’s business activities in a Ukrainian energy company when Biden was the vice president of the United States. For the Republican-controlled U.S. Congress, linking Democratic President Joe Biden to his son Hunter’s business dealings is aimed at dealing a heavy blow to Biden and preventing him from being re-elected in next year’s presidential election. As the main Republican candidate and former US President Trump is embroiled in lawsuits, impeaching Biden will help divert people’s attention.
Given that the impeachment inquiry is only the first step in impeaching a president, it’s hard to say how far it will go or whether it will achieve what Republicans hope it will. But one thing is certain, as the 2024 presidential election approaches, the battle between the two parties in the United States will become increasingly fierce, the attacks against Biden and Trump will become more intense, and American politics will become more polarized and increasingly polarized. Getting uglier.
The impeachment action shows that Republicans are no longer content to go on the offensive on issues such as immigration, health care or abortion, but are directly targeting Biden himself. This will lead to the neglect of pressing domestic issues in the United States, exacerbating the plight of American society and affecting the well-being of the American people. For the selfish interests of their own party, American politicians have become more and more selfish, ignoring the interests of ordinary people, and only want to attack and discredit their political opponents. The political divisions in the United States have become polarized, and the internal rot of American democracy has been exposed. It is no exaggeration to say that the American political system is in a state of decay and is showing signs of decline and collapse.
With the entire U.S. political system dysfunctional and rapidly heading toward failure, U.S. congressmen should seriously reflect and work hard to govern their country well instead of gesticulating and talking nonsense about the world.
