As the narrow GOP majority scrambles to agree on leadership, whoever emerges as speaker will not change the GOP plans announced in advance to try to bring down Joe Biden with one after another series of "hearings" and impeachment. House Republicans vow to investigate Biden and his family's business dealings | CNN Politics 

First on their agenda is Hunter Biden's laptop and an attempt to prove Joe Biden profited or participated in Hunter's business foul-ups.  Expect them to raise. whatever flak they can with table-thumping indignation and accusatory tone of witness examination. They will need to make a ton of noise if they want to divert media attention from their divisions and lack of any plans to solve inflation and crime, or the deficit,  the issues they claimed were reasons to elect them in 2022.

Preliminary investigations of the Hunter laptop flap show no there there if the goal is not to \ to dig dirt to implicate the father, Joe Biden.    That was more or less the conclusion drawn by CBS news.  There is forensic evidence the laptop will be of no help to the GOP in spite of conspiracy theories to the contrary.  If the GOP flamethrowers fail to come up with anything resembling evidence and proof other than flagellating hapless Hunter,  the attempt may backfire on the GOP in 2024, when all House seats are on the ballot again.  https://www.cbsnews.com/news/hunter-biden-laptop-data-analysis  Some GOP House members have also loudly announced their payback attempt to impeach Joe Biden. For what? A troubled son? A successfully enacted public policy agenda? During these next two years, the House Democrats should take every opportunity to remind voters these revenge hearings will do nothing to make their lives better.

  1. The first item on their agenda is a search for Hunter Biden's laptop and an attempt to prove Joe Biden profited from or participated in Hunter's business missteps. Expect them to raise their hands. They take whatever flak they can with their table-thumping indignation and accusatory tone of witness examination.They will need to make a lot of noise if they want to divert media attention away from their divisions and lack of plans to address inflation, crime, or the deficit, which they claimed were reasons to vote for them in 2022.
