Republicans Furious With James Comer For His Biden Impeachment Inquiry: ‘A Jumbled Mess’

House Republicans thought they had the perfect way to counter the seemingly endless legal problems confronting former president Donald Trump: Open an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden and pursue removal from office as the 2024 election draws closer by the day.

Now, however, two months after the inquiry began, many in the GOP are calling the investigation “a jumbled mess” and blaming House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY), who is leading the effort, according to CNN.

“The prospect of their inquiry not culminating in impeachment has prompted some internal frustration among Republicans, with finger-pointing already underway in GOP circles about what went wrong — and who is to blame — even as the Republican-led committees continue to push on with their probe.”

“Some of the ire has been directed at House Oversight Chairman James Comer, who has spearheaded the investigation into Biden family business records.”

The House Republican caucus currently has a narrow margin of two votes, which means they would need unanimity from their members if and when a vote for impeachment goes to the floor.

Some in the GOP, however, are already suggesting they won’t vote to impeach Biden given the scant “evidence” that’s been assembled by Comer and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH).

Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA), a member of the right-wing Freedom Caucus who was also involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election, noted, “I don’t know that the case has been made adequately to the American people” to impeach Biden. And a GOP insider echoed those remarks, commenting, “You’d be hard-pressed to say it’s going well. It’s a jumbled mess.”

The crux of the so-called case against President Biden is that he allegedly accepted bribes from foreign countries that did business with his son, Hunter Biden. But there hasn’t been a shred of credible evidence presented to prove such an allegation.

All of this begs the question as to whether or not the real goal of Republicans is to keep issuing subpoenas in the hope the White House will accidentally fail to release every document requested which would then serve as the pretext for charging the president with obstruction of justice regarding a crimes that have yet to be proven.

In other words, it’s just election-year politics, but the waste of time and taxpayer money could wind up backfiring badly on the GOP and costing them control of both houses of Congress while also reelecting Biden for a second term.
