House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) explained on Sunday why it was important for the House to vote on formalizing an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.

Just three days later, and after Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy flip-flopped on his vow to hold a vote before launching the probe, Jordan, one of the three co-chairs of the impeachment inquiry, pulled his own 180 by telling Fox & Friends, “We don’t need that to move forward” because McCarthy’s pronouncement “gives added weight to it.”

Despite having no concrete evidence to support Republican allegations that the president was involved in any wrongdoing as it relates to his family’s business dealings, McCarthy capitulated to MAGA hardliners on Tuesday and announced he was unilaterally opening an impeachment inquiry.

    I wonder what would happen if Biden directed Democrats to support the impeachment process on the grounds that Republicans don’t actually have any evidence and they want to get it out of the way so they can get back to governing.

    Force the fascists Republicans to shit or get off the pot. Show that the far right promises to “get Biden” are nothing but cons, let them take the hit, while Biden gets the boost for being unjustly persecuted by the real criminals.
