Democratic Congressman from Illinois Raja Krishnamurthy, a member of the House Oversight Committee, liberally shared his thoughts in a recent interview on the impeachment inquiry into President Biden. He, like many others, found the developments markedly 'absurd', maintaining strong disbelief that the investigating Republicans will uncover any concrete evidence to back up their claims. In support of his argument, he cited Republicans such as Mitt Romney, asserting that there's not a single shred of evidence implicating the president in any wrongdoing whatsoever.
Furthermore, Congressman Krishnamurthy raised doubts about the ability of the Republican majority in the House to keep up with their legislative duties in addition to the impeachment inquiry. He expressed his concern about the lack of substantive progress in such a politically-charged environment, with the timing of the impeachment vote coinciding with the pressing issue of government funding.

On the more controversial side of things, Krishnamurthy was asked about Hunter Biden's compliance with the congressional subpoena. Despite his obvious discouragement over the investigation, the congressman believes that Hunter Biden addressed the subpoena appropriately. He openly professed his readiness to appear for a deposition as long as it was conducted transparently, yet the offer was deemed as 'defiance' by the Republicans.
Also brought into the conversation was a bipartisan resolution denouncing the rising antisemitism on college campuses. Yesterday, the House saw 303 votes supporting the resolution, 84 of them were Democrats, while 125 Democrats voted against it. Congressman Krishnamurthy, himself voted against it and explained his opposition, making it clear that while he condemns the testimony, he believes the resolution's call for the firing of university presidents oversteps Congress’s authority and infringes upon that of the universities.
