Marjorie Taylor Greene believes impeachment inquiry will sway Republicans to remove Biden.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene: Impeachment Inquiry Could Change Republican Minds
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) believes that an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden could sway House Republicans who currently oppose the idea. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has shown interest in launching the inquiry as more allegations of bribery and corruption against the president come to light.
Greene’s Perspective
“I think the impeachment inquiry is really important,” Greene told Breitbart. “The impeachment inquiry will show the public even more information. It will help get those Republican members that we have to the point where they will be there for impeachment.”
Greene acknowledges that there are still a few Republicans in the House who are against impeaching the president. These members could potentially prevent the party from reaching the 218 votes threshold required for an impeachment vote to pass. If the House does vote to impeach, the next step of removing Biden from office would take place in the Senate, which is currently controlled by Democrats.
Importance of the Inquiry
“The whole purpose of them calling for an impeachment inquiry is to push the [members] that won’t do it,” Greene added. “So, it is a really important process.”
Some Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee support the opening of an impeachment inquiry. Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) has called for his party to hold all corrupt members of the Biden administration accountable. Other committee members argue that it is their duty to launch an impeachment investigation.
Committee’s Responsibility
“We continue to learn about the corruption of the Biden crime family and how deep and wide that corruption seems to go,” said Judiciary Committee member Harriet Hageman (R-WY). “With the revelations of the past several weeks and the increasing pace of new information leading towards the ‘big guy’ being directly involved, it is incumbent upon the Judiciary Committee to immediately open an impeachment investigation.”
Currently, there is no clear timeline for when the House will open its inquiry. Both chambers are currently on their August recess.
