Leah Barkoukis "Fox News’ senior political analyst Brit Hume weighed in on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s announcement of a formal impeachment inquiry, arguing the move “was really quite clever.”

"He continued: "I think she’s thinking that she needs to be responsive to the needs of her caucus -- look at what she did today, it was really quite clever if you think about it.' . . .

" 'There's a lot of talk about Biden's son, that Biden stopped the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that so whatever you can do with the Attorney General [Barr] would be great.
