Biden Has The Perfect Three-Word Response To GOP Calls For His Impeachment

On Tuesday, Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy announced that he would instruct the relevant committees to open a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, even though he has yet to lay out a shred of evidence that ties the president to any high crimes or misdemeanors.

In his statement to the media, CNN notes, McCarthy tried to justify the move.

“These are allegations of abuse of power, obstruction and corruption,” the California Republican said in remarks outside his office on Capitol Hill. “They warrant further investigation by the House of Representatives. That’s why today I am directing our House (committees) to open a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.”

The House-led GOP investigations have yet to provide any direct evidence that the president financially benefited from Hunter Biden’s career overseas.

McCarthy is also skirting House rules by not calling for a formal vote of the full House to determine if a majority support an inquiry. That’s because the Speaker knows he doesn’t have the votes needed to pass such a motion, and losing on a vote would be devastating to him as he attempts to fight off extremist right-wingers in the GOP caucus who are eager to get payback for the two impeachments of failed former president Donald Trump.

Though the White House has made a few carefully worded comments on the impeachment inquiry, with spokesperson Ian Sams calling it “extreme politics at its worst,” Biden had remained mum.

Until today, that is.

As he returned to the White House on Sunday, Biden was asked about the inquiry by reporters. His response was curt and to the point.

“Lots of luck!”

Dark Brandon knows exactly how to troll the GOP.

Confused Trump Claims Biden Will Lead The Country Into ‘World War 2’ During Error-Filled Speech

During a speech he gave Friday at the D.C. Pray Vote Stand Summit, failed one-term, twice-impeached and oft-indicted former president Donald Trump accused President Joe Biden of being “cognitively impaired,” and then proceeded to make one gaffe after another as part of his remarks.

“We have a man who is totally corrupt and the worst president in the history of our country, who is cognitively impaired, in no condition to lead, and is now in charge of dealing with Russia and possible nuclear war.”

The disgraced ex-president added:

“Just think of it. We would be in World War 2 very quickly if we’re going to be relying on this man, and far more devastating than any war. There will never be a war if that happens— there will never be a war like this. It will obliterate everything there is, everybody, it will obliterate every country.”

Umm…wasn’t World War 2 from 1939-45? That’s certainly what the history books say. Then again, Trump never bothers to read or do any research, so it’s not exactly surprising that he doesn’t know when the Second World War took place.

In yet another bizarre claim, Trump also seemed to suggest that he’s beating former President Barack Obama in the 2024 polls.

“As you know, crooked Joe Biden and the radical left thugs have weaponized law enforcement to arrest their leading political opponent, and leading by a lot, including Obam— I’ll tell you what,” he said. “You take a look at Obama and take a look at some of the things that he’s done, this is the same thing.”

He continued: “The country was very divided, and we did with Obama, we won an election that everyone said couldn’t be won, we beat Hillary Clinton.”

So who exactly is cognitively impaired?

Joe Biden’s Latest Nickname For Trump Is Guaranteed To Enrage The Former Guy

President Joe Biden knows exactly how to get under Donald Trump’s thin skin, and he’s doing it again by giving the failed, one-term and twice-impeached former president a nickname that’s certain to push the Donald’s buttons.

Biden was speaking at a community college in Maryland and noted that Trump was one of just two president’s in U.S. history who left office with fewer jobs than when he began.

“One was President Hoover, and the other was Donald Hoover Trump. My predecessor promised to be the greatest job president in history. Well, it didn’t really work out that way. He lost 2 million jobs over the course of his presidency.”

Biden is absolutely correct, and that makes his new nickname for Trump even more devastating, as Forbes noted back in 2021.

“(Trump was) the first post–World War II president to see employment fall during his presidency. It last occurred when Herbert Hoover left office in 1933 amid the early years of the Great Depression.”

How many jobs were lost on Trump’s watch? According to the Washington Post, which used Labor Department figures, 3 million American jobs were lost while Trump was in office.

Biden’s latest burn was greeted with cheers on Twitter.

Comer Rages After Hunter Biden Is Indicted On Gun Charge Because He ‘Can’t Tie Joe Biden Into It’

Rep. James Comer (R-KY), chairman of the House Oversight Committee, is furious that the Justice Department decided to indict Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden, on three gun charges, and he made it clear when asked about the indictment that he’s most upset that DOJ charged Hunter Biden with a crime he cannot tie the president to.

Mediate notes:

Months ago, Comer was among those who complained Hunter Biden was getting a “sweetheart deal” with the Justice Department before that deal wound up falling apart.

That led a reporter to ask the congressman, “Sounds like you are still expressing skepticism. I mean, the idea that you wanted an indictment. From your perspective here, that’s not enough?”

Comer replied, “You have never heard me say anything about gun charges. Again, that’s the one crime he’s committed that you cannot tie to Joe Biden.”

Doesn’t the indictment prove that Special Counsel David Weiss did the right thing and wasn’t “politicized?”

The Kentucky Republican replied, “Well, I don’t know. We’ll see. That was an easy charge. So, I’m still holding out hope that Weiss does the right thing. This is — again — the least of all the dozen crimes he’s committed, the one charge, the one crime that Joe Biden wasn’t involved.”

Comer later issued a statement which he posted on social media. It reads:

“Today’s charges against Hunter Biden are a very small start, but unless U.S. Attorney Weiss investigates everyone involved in the fraud schemes and influence peddling, it will be clear President Biden’s DOJ is protecting Hunter Biden and the big guy.”

Translation: Comer has no case and now he has no leverage over Hunter Biden. Matter of fact, he probably cannot subpoena the president’s son because his attorneys won’t allow him to testify before Congress.

Of course, Comer never had any evidence of wrongdoing by the president, but now he has absolutely nothing. He has no proof of anything and he can’t use Hunter Biden as a designated whipping boy.

In other words, Comer and the GOP are f*cked.

Congress GOP Impeachment Joe Biden

WATCH: CNN Host Swats Down Matt Gaetz For Lying About GOP’s Bogus Impeachment Inquiry

On Tuesday, without a formal vote of the full House of Representatives, Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) instructed the relevant House committees to begin a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.

In his announcement, McCarthy said, “These are allegations of abuse of power, obstruction and corruption. They warrant further investigation by the House of Representatives.”

McCarthy’s move was a complete capitulation to extremists in the House GOP caucus. One of those members, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), later praised McCarthy’s move, but also suggested he might call for the Speaker’s removal, Newsweek notes:

“I rise today to serve notice: Mr. Speaker, you are out of compliance with the agreement that allowed you to assume this role. The path forward for the House of Representatives is to either bring you into immediate, total compliance or remove you pursuant to a motion to vacate the chair,” Gaetz said on the House floor.

“So we’re either going to get compliance, or we’re going to start having votes on motions to vacate, and we’re gonna have them regularly. I don’t anticipate them passing immediately. But I think that, you know, if we have to begin every single day in Congress with the prayer, the pledge and the motion to vacate, so be it.”

Gaetz appeared on CNN Tuesday evening to explain why he supported the impeachment inquiry called for by McCarthy, citing “bank records, devices, laptops, travel records” as “evidence” of high crimes and misdemeanors by President Biden.

But when host Abby Phillip explained that Republicans have yet to provide a shred of actual evidence against the president, a flabbergasted Gaetz exclaimed, “Are you trying to tell your viewers you don’t believe Joe Biden was involved in Hunter Biden’s–“

Phillip responded:

“Congressman, it’s not what I believe, it’s about whether there is evidence that president Biden is linked to the misdeeds that might be linked to Hunter Biden. That’s the issue.”

There is absolutely no evidence of crimes by President Biden. There are only accusations without any substance and constant mentions of alleged misdeeds by the president’s son, Hunter, who has never worked a day in the administration, unlike Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, who were top advisers to failed former president Donald Trump and later received a $2 billion payoff of gratitude from a Saudi investment firm.

House Republicans are about to go down a road that will lead to them getting wiped out in the 2024 election, so at least something good will come from their idiocy.
