Stefanik wants to impeach Joe Biden

Jul 28, 2023 12:33 pm

Fox News reports that Rep. Elise Stefanik is all in on impeaching President Joe Biden. Stefanik said, "Oh, absolutely. I'm in conversations with Speaker McCarthy and all of our members. The important thing to know about an impeachment inquiry is that ensures that the House is at the apex of its power and oversight responsibility. It means that our subpoenas have the most power possible when it comes to litigating this out in court because we know getting the facts is not going to be easy." Her comments say what impeachment would do for House Republicans, not what Biden did that deserves being impeached. On that issue, she only said something about, "illegal money laundering, the fact that nearly 20 Biden family members have profited illegally." Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said this week that he may consider an impeachment inquiry of Biden over claims of financial misconduct. Stefanik, also a Republican, represents the 21st Congressional District, including Rensselaer County. Other Hudson Valley representatives have not joined calls to impeach Biden.
