Biden accused of abuse of power, obstruction in blistering House Republican impeachment report hours before his DNC speech

House Republicans issued a blistering report Monday accusing President Biden of committing at least two offenses that would justify his impeachment — delivering a political black eye to Biden just hours before he speaks on the opening night of the Democratic National Convention.

Republicans launched the investigation last September after evidence surfaced that Biden, 81, repeatedly interacted with his relatives’ foreign business partners during his vice presidency — and following allegations from two IRS investigators of a far-reaching Justice Department cover-up.

Biden engaged in “abuse of power” and “obstruction of justice or obstruction of Congress” by corruptly abetting and concealing a $27 million “influence-peddling racket” — which warrant proceedings that could result in his removal from office***

As much as $18 million allegedly flowed from foreign entities to “shell companies” and other accounts linked to first family members from “corrupt dealings” that sold the “Biden brand” to associates in Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Russia and China.

Biden family associates — including former Hunter Biden business partners who testified to the panels — nabbed another $9 million in profits.***

In light of the Bidens’ skulduggery, abject corruption, and criminality, the Republicans will be issuing a strongly worded letter.

We’ve seen this play before with “crooked” Hillary getting a free pass. There were plenty fiery words directed at her, which fired up the base and got out the vote, only to be followed up with no action. Lather, rinse, repeat.

"Griftin' Joe" Biden

A vote in the House along party lines.
A vote in the Senate along pary lines.

The result - a conviction with no removal...but a conviction on the record forever.

And with the conviction, Biden will barred from entering Disney’s Country Bear Jamboree without an escort.

Is there a crime they have not committed?

[kiryandil]

No Democrat jury in the District of Corruption will convict that vicious old felonious geezer.

And with the conviction, Biden will barred from entering Disney’s Country Bear Jamboree without an escort.

What a bonus for the kids. No freaky hair sniffing to contend with!

When they send the DOJ their strongly worded letter will they lace it with Anthrax powder?

[Steven Tyler]

If Biden goes rouge at the DNC convention, by declaring he remains in the race, he gets impeached.

If Biden reads what is placed before him, he gets to be a puppet for some more time.

Impeachment is not a conviction. The House’s vote to impeach is more along the lines of an indictment. The Senate conducts the trial and convicts or exonerates.

[philman_36]

OK. The Senate can convict without removal, correct?

[philman_36]

A vote in the House along party lines. (Impeachment)
A vote in the Senate along pary lines. (Conviction, possibly)

The result - a conviction with no removal...but a conviction on the record forever.

Or just an impeachment if the Senate doesn't do what it should.

There is still an impeachment on the record...forever.

[philman_36]

His crimes would be on the record because the DOJ isn’t going to put them on the record.

[Manic_Episode]

Justice is an illusion paid for with massive taxation.

M.E.

[fwdude]

Yes, impeachment is forever, but let’s not call it a conviction.

[rfreedom4u]

And not one damn thing will be done about this. Other than talk of course.

[philman_36]

Yes, impeachment is forever, but let’s not call it a conviction.

Okay. Impeachment is as good as a conviction if the Senate is honest in its determination.

How is that?

[philman_36]

Just think about this, even the possibility of a conviction could force a resignation.

Wouldn't that be a turn of events!

Oooh, that's almost as useful as a sternly-worded letter. Almost.

[DesertRhino]

A blistering report! And here I thought republicans were useless. /s
