On October 26, 2023, Mike Johnson, a Republican representative from Louisiana, was elected as the new Speaker of the House. Johnson, a relatively unknown figure to President Biden's White House, has raised hopes among conservatives for a potential impeachment of President Biden.

Johnson, who has been serving in Congress since 2017, is known for his conservative views and has been a vocal critic of the Biden administration. His election as Speaker of the House has been seen as a significant shift in the power dynamics of the House, which was previously controlled by Democrats.

While Johnson's election has been welcomed by conservatives, it has also raised concerns among Democrats, who fear that his leadership could lead to a more confrontational and partisan atmosphere in the House. However, Johnson has stated that he intends to lead with fairness and respect for all members of the House, regardless of their political affiliation.

Despite the speculation, it remains unclear whether Johnson will pursue impeachment proceedings against President Biden. While some conservatives have expressed hope that Johnson's leadership could pave the way for impeachment, others have cautioned that such a move could be politically risky and potentially divisive.

Johnson's election as Speaker of the House marks a significant moment in American politics, and his leadership will undoubtedly have a significant impact on the direction of the House and the broader political landscape in the coming years.
