Despite drumbeating for more than a year to impeach Joe Biden, House Republicans have quietly begun looking for an off-ramp in the face of an overwhelming lack of evidence against the president—and a rapidly shrinking majority in the chamber.
Republicans have accused Biden and his son Hunter of corruption and influence peddling, but their lengthy investigation has failed to turn up any proof of the president’s wrongdoing. In fact, the biggest criminal act revealed during the course of the probe was committed by the GOP’s own star witness, Alexander Smirnov. The Department of Justice has accused him of making up the allegations against the Biden family that jump-started the whole impeachment effort.
As the investigation crumbles, Republicans are starting to sour on it entirely. “I don’t think we have the will to impeach Joe Biden,” Texas Representative Troy Nehls told Fox News on Tuesday. “We just don’t.”
maybe they realize that the monster we have now is way better than the horrifying thing we'll have to deal with if Kamala becomes president.
She's in favor of civil asset forfeiture, prison slave labor, she's perfectly fine with all the crimes that the banks commit every day and she's a bloodthirsty maniac in favor of every war going on right now.
President Harris is not even a possibility if the house votes to impeach Biden. The Dems have the senate majority, and the GOP would need a 2/3rds vote. Heck, they likely wouldn’t even get all of the GOP senators voting for it.
The plan was never to actually kick the guy out of office. The plan was to have a media stunt.
Their plan was to minimize the legitimacy of an impeachment. Because Trump was impeached twice. So if they can impeach Biden based on no substantial evidence, then Trump’s impeachments look much less serious. Their goal has always been to water down the idea of impeachments, so Trump’s impeachments can’t be used against him in the future.
Wanna know something? For part of Obama's time in office, he had a filibuster proof majority in the house and senate and the only thing he did with it was to give us a republican's idea for healthcare.
A system that forces everyone to buy for-profit healthcare and still allows those for-profit companies to deny care.
The democrats care so much about "bipartisanship" and "reaching across the isle" that they caved in to pressure that didn't even matter.
Why would they do this? Because the democrats actually wanted to do what they ended up doing, and now they don't even bother virtue signaling any left-wing views. They just come right out and advocate for authoritarianism now.
They only had the votes for a few short bubbles of time here and there. They had less than half the year if you added all the time up, and chunk of that was recess or with Kennedy on his deathbed.
