EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., is urging House GOP leaders to hold a chamber-wide vote on impeaching President Biden days after a highly anticipated report accused the commander in chief of committing impeachable offenses.

The 291-page report lays out evidence of the Biden family’s foreign payments and the family patriarch’s role in meeting or speaking with partners. The Republican-led House committees leading the impeachment probe into Joe Biden concluded Monday the president engaged in impeachable conduct by helping to enrich his family with millions of dollars in business schemes that traded on his name and then defrauded voters by lying to cover up the scandal. The House Oversight, Ways and Means and Judiciary Committees said they believe the evidence from their nine-month investigation establishes that Biden abused his office and violated his oaths under...

The nearly 300-page report on Biden family corruption matters for many reasons, the most important of which is to restore America’s standing in the world.With Joe Biden out as Democrats’ candidate for president, the House of Representatives’ report on the impeachment inquiry released this morning may give off a “What difference, at this point, does it make?” vibe.After all, even if the House votes to impeach the president, the Senate won’t convict him and he’ll be out of office and politics forever in January 2024. The nearly 300-page report nonetheless matters for many reasons, the most important of which is...

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...

Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) introduced articles of impeachment against Vice President Kamala Harris Tuesday over her role in immigration law and for allegedly misleading the public on President Joe Biden‘s condition. The two articles of impeachment, obtained by the Washington Examiner, come two days after Biden dropped his reelection bid and endorsed Harris to take his place at the top of the Democratic Party’s ticket. The first article of impeachment, “willful refusal to uphold the immigration laws,” stems from her alleged “inaction” with border security and immigration law as “border czar.” The second article of impeachment, “breach of public trust,”...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and a group of House progressives on Wednesday introduced articles of impeachment against conservative Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. Why it matters: It's a long-shot element of a broader legislative push by House Democrats to rein in the court after a spate of decisions in June that incensed liberals. Driving the news: The resolutions accuse Thomas and Alito of refusing to recuse from cases in which they had a "personal bias or prejudice concerning a party," as well as "failure to disclose" income, gifts and other financial info. The articles targeting Thomas include...

Merrick Garland is no “by-the-book” attorney general. Even now, Garland is refusing to hand over audio recordings of President Joe Biden’s interviews with former special counsel Robert Hur over the president’s hoarding of classified documents, despite a congressional subpoena. As the Department of Justice stonewalls Congress, it is also prosecuting the Republican Party’s presidential candidate for the very crimes the Hur tape supposedly “exonerates” Biden from. Considering the Hur transcript has already been released — and we know that Biden lied about it — there is even less justification for withholding the audio. And considering the DOJ has apparently cleaned...

resident Joe Biden was blasted on social media this week over a past anti-Trump tweet that critics said showed he should be impeached for withholding some weapons from Israel if it moves forward with a military operation in Rafah, Gaza. "President Trump withheld Congressionally appropriated aid to Ukraine unless they granted him a political favor," Biden tweeted as a candidate in 2019 about the impeachment push against Trump over a phone call with Ukraine that Democrats claimed was a "quid pro quo." "It's the definition of quid pro quo. This is no joke—Trump continues to put his own personal, political...

Articles to impeach President Joe Biden over his decision to withhold aid to Israel for political reasons are in preparation, freshman Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) announced Thursday. Biden’s decision to withhold bombs from Israel is concerning due to its political implications. Biden’s base wants him to defund Israel, while many moderate Democrats support Israel’s ability to defend itself against terrorists. Biden appears stuck between competing coalitions during an election year. He currently trails in the polls to Trump and has a historically low approval rating to win reelection as an incumbent. Democrats accused former President Donald Trump in 2019 of...

This week, the Department of Justice (DOJ) refused to comply with a Congressional subpoena for the audio of Special Counsel Robert Hur's interview of President Biden. It was this interview that prompted Hur to decline to prosecute Biden even though he had mishandled classified documents because "he would present himself as an elderly man with a poor memory and be acquitted." Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte defended defying the subpoena, saying "the written transcript alone should be enough for them. After all, we could have refused to give them anything. Their threat to hold me in contempt of Congress is...

Democrats had set their sights on impeaching Donald Trump long before he assumed the presidency. The media was openly speculating how Democrats might impeach him if he won months before the election. Once they had control of the House in 2019, it was only a matter of time before they ginned up a pretext for impeaching him. Bizarrely, they launched an impeachment inquiry over a phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Those charges stemmed from the accusations of whistleblower Eric Ciaramella, who took his claims to Rep. Adam Schiff’s (D-Calif.) office in 2019. Democrats accused Trump of...

On Wednesday, the U.S. Senate held a "trial" regarding the Articles of Impeachment directed at Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. I've got "trial" in quotation marks because the trial never really got off the ground. As detailed in the overview of the proceedings, while Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) started out with a show of allowing the Republicans to have a say in the proceedings, it would all be for naught, and the Republicans exposed that, beginning with Senator Eric Schmitt's (R-MO) objection calling for a full trial. Schumer then raised a point of order asserting that...

Both articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas were deemed unconstitutional by the Senate on Wednesday in a party-line vote. The first of two articles of impeachment alleged Mayorkas engaged in the "willful and systemic refusal to comply with the law" regarding the southern border in his capacity as DHS secretary. The second claimed Mayorkas had breached public trust.

Senate Democrats voted unanimously to shut down the Senate trial of President Joe Biden’s impeached homeland security chief Alejandro Mayorkas. The first vote of 51 Democrats to 48 Republicans, with one non-voting Republican senator, was reported at 3:18 p.m. on Wednesday. The vote, initiated by Majority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), declared that the first article of impeachment was “unconstitutional” because the charges against Mayorkas did not rise to the impeachable level of “high crimes.”

Washington — House Republicans are presenting the articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to the Senate on Tuesday, kicking off a confrontation over an impeachment trial that's been brewing for months.

Press Conference by GOP Senators demanding Schumer do his duty and hold a trial of Despicable Traitor Alejandro Mayorkas

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) says the articles of impeachment against Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas are “absurd” and that he will “resolve this as quickly as possible.” As reports circulate that Schumer is readying a motion to dismiss articles of impeachment against Mayorkas, the majority leader suggested to the media on Tuesday that he is looking to “resolve” the matter quickly. “We’re going to try and resolve this issue as quickly as possible,” Schumer said. “Impeachment should never be used to settle policy disagreements.”

I would think that Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer would recall when his predecessor Senator Dirty Harry Reid from the great state of Nevada made some critical errors on how to conduct Senate business that would later come around and bite them ( democrats) in the rear. No one has ever accused Chuck though of being a deep thinker.If you don't recall why Chuck should have learned from Harry not that long ago, here is a brief reminder from the year 2013, when Harry screwed the Senate and Democrats in the chamber. Eight years later in 2013, it would be...

A federal judge scolded the Justice Department on Friday for refusing to allow attorneys involved in the Hunter Biden investigation to comply with subpoenas issued by House Republicans. The House Judiciary Committee filed a lawsuit last month in the federal District Court in Washington seeking to force DOJ lawyers Mark Daly and Jack Morgan to provide testimony as part of the panel’s impeachment inquiry into President Biden. The GOP-led panel co-leading the impeachment probe related to the 81-year-old president’s alleged involvement in his family’s business dealings claims the DOJ has “thwarted” efforts by the committee to get depositions from the...
