President Joe Biden late Wednesday brushed off the House Republicans’ impeachment inquiry, saying the way he sees it, they launched the investigation against him because they want to shut down the federal government.
Biden, speaking at a Democratic fundraiser in Virginia, said that instead of being concerned about the probe, “I’m focused on the things the American people want me focused on.”
The president’s remarks were the first since Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced the launch of a Biden impeachment inquiry while the Republican House leader is also struggling to shore up votes to fund the government and prevent a federal shutdown.
Trump’s impeachment (which Republicans are obviously trying to mimic to get back at Democrats), stemmed from wrongdoing that everybody was aware of, it was in the news for months. We were well aware of it by the time impeachment happened.
With this latest Republican effort though, it seems obvious to anyone not drinking the kool-aid, that there’s nothing there. They still seem to be going after something to do with Hunter Biden? Are we still on this legendary laptop or whatever? It’s completely unclear what impeachable offense they’re actually accusing him of.
This seems to follow in a long line of Republican antics aimed at muddying the waters, the root of which I’m sure probably leads back to Russia. They’re trying to kick the legs out from underneath Ukraine and so are amping up the crazy in hopes of destabilizing the US and/or throwing the election to Trump (who also needs to win to avoid prison).
Something about helping him laptop the drugs? I actually don’t know and I keep up with their shenanigans.

It’s a grift, pure and simple.
Yeah, Hunter Biden himself doesn’t seem like a great character, but last I checked he hadn’t been on the ballot and I’m pretty sure he hasn’t been given an official position within the government like “Senior White House Advisor” or “Assistant to the President” (as we saw with Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump). If there’s some sort of impropriety going on, then yeah, that’s not right, though not sure that it rises to the level of “High crimes and misdemeanors” (maybe it’s just a “misdemeanor”) IF it was occurring. It wasn’t right when the previous occupant was sitting in the White House when it was out in the open and blatant nepotism, but I haven’t seen any evidence of it occurring in the current administration.
He’s just a private citizen which is why this is dumb as hell. He did dumb shit, but it has zero effect on the government in any way.
I still don’t know what dumb shit he allegedly did.
he did cocaine off of a strippers butt hole and some other stuff i guess
