Incoming House Oversight Committee Chair Promises Investigation Into Biden Impeachable Offense

Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), the incoming chairman of the House Oversight Committee, says that the Biden administration may have engaged in a quid pro quo with Saudi Arabia, and he appeared to suggest that this was an impeachable offense per the Democrats’ own standards.

Back in October, Saudi Arabia said that Joe Biden tried to get OPEC+ to delay a cut in oil production until after the midterm elections were over.

“It appears that Joe Biden went on his hands and knees to Saudi Arabia and begged them to increase oil production before the election — which of course would drop the price of gasoline right before the election,” Comer told Just The News.

“We wonder, was it an agreement where Biden said to them, ‘You could do whatever you want after the election. You could cut production after the election to increase prices so you could make more money. Just help me out before this election?'” Comer asked. “If so, the Democrats used to call that a quid pro quo.”

Comer even said that if true, it’s far worse than what Democrats accused Trump of to justify impeaching him.Saudi Arabia.

Very good.

Except they’re forgetting that the SENATE is the one who actually CONVICTS. And who controls the Senate?

No point in even doing it unless there’s a chance to convict.

Nixon was never convicted.

This is down the line in terms of offenses. “10%” from the Chinese payola would be up there.

It’s more than just “who contrals the Senate,” two thirds are requires.

Who cares, impeach the b@stard. The “it doesn’t matter if we impeach him or not” crowd” are clueless. Hit back, for God’s sake.

Incoming House Oversight Committee Chair Promises Investigation Into Biden Impeachable Offense

Too bad promises from Congress are about as dependable as a screen door on a submarine.

“No point in even doing it unless there’s a chance to convict”

Got a disagree with that.

Two things will happen:

1: bidens criminal activity gets put into in the light (although the lefty media will ignore it)

2. The investigations go into the permanent public House record.

Let them waste time. It will keep them from screwing up so much or surrendering more. Both are repooblican hall marks.

Very true.

But there is some merit in showing the evidence. In any investigation, if done properly, if enough facts come out the case decides itself

Of course, the Senate wouldn’t convict him so don’t even worry about that.

But laying it all out there, showing that he truly is worthy of impeachment is almost as good as an impeachment. He and the Senate will have surrendered any momentum or presence, for lack of a better term.

Imagine them proving that what he did was impeachable. Schumer and the rest don’t convict. From that pint on, they all have that cloud over their head.

One reporter…”Sen Schumer, in light of the overwhelming evidence discovered by the House, how could the Senate not convict?” That’s a tough answer, even for a POS like Schumer.

"Incoming House Oversight Committee Chair Promises Investigation Into Biden Impeachable Offense"

"Investigation Into Biden Impeachable Offense" will be a full-time job imo.

A thorough investigation needs to include why previous Democratic-controlled House failed to impeach Biden.

They should impeach him for something ever day of the week. One day hearing, impeach, then send to Senate. Keep the Senate busy until 2024.
