House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., on Tuesday said he is directing three House committees to open an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden in an effort to seek bank records and other documents from the president and his son Hunter Biden.
lol. lmao, even
I predict this exchange between a reporter and McCarthy…
“What evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors do you have to go forward with impeachment?”
“In two words - Hunter Biden.”
The right-wing doesn’t need a real reason or even a reason that makes sense. They just need something that can fit on bumper sticker. Plus - there’s the added benefit that mocking norms and not even pretending about the way things should work drives libs insane.

If you want to add another total failure to the record, be my guest, Karen. I mean Kevin.
These guys truly do not give a fuck about the people.
So the right wing media will make a big deal out of any findings, which will probably have some corruption uncovered but of the vanilla, boilerplate variety everyone does in DC, the conservative base will get frothy over it, the libs will Nothingburger it, everyone else will see it as more “both parties are corrupt” background noise, impeached in the house, senate acquits.

If this happens he should be impeached and convicted. I am SO fucking over poo-pooing fucking federal corruption scandals. I don’t care if they’re all doing it. Even more reason. Kushner should’ve been put on trial.

Yep. They set a terrible precedent.
nah, this is doa and everyone will re-learn the lesson that impeachment for piddly shit is a self-own.
Any impeachment proceeding is almost sure to pass the House and fail in the Senate.
i understand how impeachment works and i understand the congressional math. i disagree w/ the throwaway christman thesis that the US is on some terminal course of constant impeachments: it will be seen, yet again, that the benefits of impeachments redound to the impeachees party; many republicans understand this, but they are unable to discipline the flailing MAGA wing of the party.
The GOP when they impeached Clinton because Clinton didn’t think a BJ counts as sex?
How so?
Watch as every future president gets impeached for some random bullshit
Idk, this feels like a blue slip thing, where dems follow norms from like 40 years ago and republicans just do whatever they like with no opposition
