Glad to see our lawmakers wasting time and resources on this circus. This is shameful. Everyone involved should feel deeply ashamed of themselves. They seriously need to touch grass, and to stop eating paint chips. Seriously, how can anyone support this nonsense?
If Biden committed impeachable crimes, then he should face it. There doesn’t seem to be any tangible evidence to support the accusations. Trump is not a figurehead—he is their god. But even if Trump is ousted from the party, the rhetoric will only continue to become more and more unhinged. This is only going to get worse, as many of them seem to be true believers. Can one reason at all with these sycophants? An exercise in futility, right? Then what are we to do? They have plenty of strongholds, so voting enough of them out seems unlikely to affect the behavior and rhetoric. So what do we do?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The House voted Wednesday to formally authorize the impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden, even as Republicans have failed to produce evidence showing that the president financially benefitted from his family’s business dealings.
Instead choosing to hold a press conference on Capitol Hill, Hunter Biden reiterated his willingness to testify publicly, an offer that House Republicans have rejected.
The previous House speaker, Republican Kevin McCarthy, unilaterally launched the inquiry in September without a formal vote on the matter.
At the time, a number of more moderate Republicans expressed concerns about launching a formal inquiry, given the lack of clear evidence about Biden’s involvement in his son’s business dealings.
House Democrats defended Hunter Biden’s decision to defy his subpoena, accusing Republicans of attempting to “cherry-pick” testimony to advance baseless allegations against the president.
“They wanted to conduct the deposition in a closed-door interview, so the public couldn’t see it and so they could continue to cherry-pick little pieces of evidence and distort and misrepresent what had taken place there,” Jamie Raskin, the top Democrat on the House oversight committee, told reporters.
