A Republican lawmaker is attempting to impeach new President Joe Biden already.

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene filed two articles of impeachment against President Biden on Thursday alleging abuse of power when he served as vice president.

She says Mr Biden withheld billions of dollars in US aid to Ukraine in order to prevent an investigation into his son Hunter’s business dealings in the country.

The impeachment push is unlikely to succeed given the Democrat’s control of both houses.
