Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Ca.) told Just the News that forming a select committee on impeachment of President Biden or proceeding directly to an impeachment inquiry are both viable options but the ultimate decision will be made by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.
Issa, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, was asked if he prefers a select committee as opposed to an impeachment inquiry overseen by the House Judiciary Committee.
“I trust the speaker to figure out the best team to put together for that inquiry. He can always go to the Judiciary Committee, which is heavy on the impeachment side, but the reality is, the January 6 [select] committee, had it been bipartisan, might well have been as good of a format,” he said during an interview on Capitol Hill.
