In what was supposed to be a central theme of the party's drive to derail Biden's re-election effort, a 291-page report alleges that he was the architect and beneficiary of a lucrative influence-peddling scheme fronted by his son, Hunter, and brother, James.
The culmination of a months-long impeachment inquiry conducted by three Republican-led committees was timed to coincide with the opening of the Democratic national convention in Chicago, but it is now Kamala Harris, the vice-president, at the top of the ticket, not Biden.
The report stated: "Overwhelming evidence demonstrates that President Biden participated in a conspiracy to monetise his office of public trust to enrich his family.
"President Biden's participation in this conspiracy to enrich his family constitutes impeachable conduct."

Are you sitting comfortably? You will be in HS2's seats, say designers

The latter-day history of the Cure is a peculiar thing. They ended the 90s in apparent disarray, yet the 21st century found them more revered than ever. You couldn't move for younger artists paying homage: everyone from heavy metal bands to dance producers seemed to want to collaborate with the band's frontman, Robert Smith.

Thereafter, gigs came flecked with new songs but the release schedule fell silent.
