Impeaching Joe Biden

Biden Impeachment Effort Grows: MTG Backs Plan, McCarthy Against

Rep. Lauren Boebert’s effort to impeach Biden is growing, but Speaker Kevin McCarthy is yet to sign on

The articles of impeachment against Joe Biden introduced by Rep. Lauren Boebert are finding support among other Republican populists, namely Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, but House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is urging House Republicans against the impeachment vote...no balls. They need a two thirds vote in the Senate so are reluctant to go forward.

Boebert introduced a privileged motion to force an impeachment vote in the House, an act that signals open defiance against McCarthy and traditional lawmaking in Congress. While Greene had previously introduced articles of impeachment against Joe Biden, this will mark the first time the House is forced to a vote.

People haven't fully understood the genius of what @LaurenBoebert is doing with these impeachment articles. These articles are crafted in a special way through the Parliamentarian that FORCES a vote of each member on the record. This isn't just noise. This is the first real chance at impeaching Biden.
