House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's recent comments about opening an impeachment inquiry into President Biden were greeted with skepticism from Senate Republicans, including one who warned against following the lead of Democrats who "cheapened" the process under former President Trump.
"You'd have to have the argument," Senate Minority Whip John Thune, R-S.D., told reporters Tuesday. "It's a high threshold. I'd assume they'd have to have evidence and some process where they would at least get that evidence if they don't have it."
"Clearly the statements they're making would lead me to believe they have evidence. Or they think they have evidence that could reach that threshold of high crimes and misdemeanors," Thune added. "I'll say what I said before, and that is I think the best way to change the presidency is win the election… I think it's in our best interest to be making an argument for why we need to have the majority in the House, the Senate and the White House come Jan. 2025."

Yes, by all means... let’s not sink to their (their being the rabid, leftist Democrats that do so love fake impeachments against their opponents based upon hearsay and blatant lies and BS alone) level. No. Let us rise above the Marxist leftists in Congress and go one better. Let’s impeach the traitorous SOB(s) based on the evidence that we already HAVE...
and expect the resultant impeachment(s) to allow us to uncover yet more evidence of high treason among those that we, by constitutional law, are REQUIRED to hold accountable...
for a refreshing, rare and highly unusual change.
Apparently reasoned discussion on FR has given way to name calling and derision.
Can those senators be that deaf and blind not to realize what Biden and his administration is doing to this nation?? Time is of essence.

Yeah, then there’s that
Thanks
So the Senate, according to this hump and three quarters Cornyn, has no role in preventing, pursuing, or punishing governmental corruption. It's apparently beneath the House of Lords to trifle themselves with such petty matters and better left to the commoners. I really hate these people in the GOPe.
” we must get past this recent phase of screaming impeachment for every president since Clinton.”
Wrong. We must hold every president... even those with that magic “D” by their names, accountable for their criminal deeds, even if it’s just lying under oath. High treason (taking bribes from enemy nations for betraying America, in this case) must always be held accountable for if our nation is to survive.
But you’re free to continue to root for non-impeachment of the Democrat treasonists, if you wish. Your honesty is appreciated, if not your leftist-biased stance.
Thune is unaware that impeachment is mandatory for Bribery?
He must resign if he is that ignorant of the Constitution.
You impeach. Conviction is determined by the Senate. The evidence of bribery is overwhelming.
That he hasn’t been Articled 25ed yet, not only cheapens
the process, it puts our nation on record as being a
farcical entity.
We are so ripe for attack right now.
charges must be brought because crimes are being committed... what the corrupt senate does is up to them.
Excellent analogy!
The trap for Republicans is that Democrats know they can be abusive first and get away with it, because Republicans will reject "whataboutism," and insist on taking the high road in contrast, essentially giving the Democrats a free "kick me" every time.
Nothing will change unless Democrats feel the blowback. Democrats get away with free kick-me against Republicans; they get to do the crime to advance their agenda and the Republicans are forced by their "leadership" to stay on the high road.
McConnell doesn't want the House Republicans to pursue impeachment, Graham never followed through on his promises as committee chairman, Trey Gowdy never did either.
There is no reason to believe that a future GOP will behave any different than the prior GOP did.

The Republican Party no longer exists—it is a branch of the Democratic (China) Deep state. RFK Jr. is more opposition to the powers that be than any Main Stream Republican—and he’s from the left. We have only Vichy Republicans (AKA RINOs) who Hate Trump with all the manufactured bile they can muster on command, and the MAGA Populist. Trump made several mistakes, trusting the wrong folks he thought were friends, and not starting his own party. How can you tell a Vichy Republicans? Simple: Do they support Ukraine dictatorship 100% even to the point of war with Russia (but not China)? In it to win it! All the way to Moscow! Putin is evil and Hitler—must be ended. They have sold their souls to the Deep State.
DEMOCRATS ARE LAWLESS BECAUSE REPUBLICANS ARE BALLLESS!
Nice bumper sticker!
feel free.
How vile these GOP Senators are! They should also be impeached.
No and Hell No to any defeatist statements of why bother. Impeach the “son of a bitch” for the record and to get out more sordid details to the public.
Oh how surprising. /S
Cowards.
