Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Have they found anything they could actually impeach Biden over, or do they just hope that something comes out of the nowhere once they start the process? This whole impeachment stuff sound to me just like Trumps lawsuits for "stealing my vote" and the whole "I'll hold a press conference where I will present irrefutable evidence" stuff.
Both. They scream “BiDeN cRiMe FaMiLy!” To distract from trumps corrupt ass kids being literally employed in the White House. Like dude said trump has 4 indictments…
However I am also sure they are desperate to find anything they can twist into scandal regardless of substance. They investigated Clinton for 25 years before settling on a blowjob.
Remember Trump blackmailing Zelensky to make up dirt on Biden? Nothing. Remember Hunter’s laptop? Nothing. They will keep fishing because they would prefer that over doing jackshit for the average citizen.
That sounds like Clinton was given blowjob by republicans lmao
McCarthy has admitted a few different times now that they have literally zero evidence to serve as a basis for an investigation or implement
Well, he is a Democrat, I guess thats enough now?
Which shows that stupidity is still a political trait and not limited to one side.
You're both-sidesing the fact that Republicans solely are thinking about impeachment based on nothing?
I'm sure they'll eventually find something. The Clinton impeachment investigation didn't set out to find anything about his affairs, it was some land deal that turned out to be on the up and up after all.
The point is, they just want to investigate, bog the White House down with discovery, leak anything embarrassing (I'm sure there's a ton more Hunter stuff to leak), and I'm sure they'll eventually find something that sorta kinda looks like a crime (or obstruction), because if you investigate anyone you'll find something eventually.
It's basically about hurting Biden politically, and painting Biden as a criminal, so the uninformed voter can just say 'they're both the same'.
The big problem here is that you have way too many uninformed voters in your country. Which is always a weak base for a working democracy.
Not my country, but yeah, Americans are stupid (and are kept that way by the media).
The most hilarious part of the land deal was that the Clintons lost money on it. Like, that's not how corruption works.
It does if you're really bad at it. See: Trump.
They just want it as a historical anecdote when they talk about presidents being impeached. They're really, really sore about Trump going through 2 of them
Shame the system is rigged to allow your friends on half the jury
