U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is opening an inquiry that could lead to impeachment of President Joe Biden.
Biden has been under investigation for abuse of power in connection with his alleged role in business dealings between his son, Hunter Biden, and government-associated corporations in Ukraine and China. President Biden is accused of using his power when he was vice president of the United States to assist his son's business dealings in foreign countries and to shield him from investigation afterward.
A 115-foot-high tower in South Boston that commemorates the evacuation of Boston by British troops in March 1776 will undergo a $30 million restoration starting this coming weekend, officials said.
The project, which is scheduled to begin Friday, September 15, is designed to restore the tower and the surrounding landscape "to its former grandeur" in time for the 250th anniversary of the British evacuation, which is March 17, 2026, according to a written statement from The National Parks of Boston.
