Greene: McCarthy’s GOP call focused on Biden impeachment.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Calls for Impeachment Inquiry into President Biden
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has made a bold statement, suggesting that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) will be among the first members of Congress to vote in favor of moving forward with an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.
During an appearance on American Sunrise on Real America’s Voice, Greene expressed her confidence in McCarthy’s commitment to starting the process by September. She revealed, “The reason why I’m confident is we had a house GOP call yesterday and that was his big push on the call.”
Questioning the Hesitation
Greene raised concerns about some House Republicans’ reluctance to take the initial steps towards an impeachment inquiry. She clarified, “An impeachment inquiry is just asking the question. We’re just asking members of Congress, do you think we should inquire about impeachment? It’s not saying, ‘Do you want to impeach?'”
Expressing her frustration, Greene exclaimed, “And at this point right now, I’m like, what the hell is wrong with Republicans?”
The Republican congresswoman, currently in her home in Rome, Georgia, highlighted the inquiries she receives from her constituents. She shared, “I’m hanging out with all of the great, wonderful normal people that actually have a brain and have common sense and are asking me every day, ‘Marjorie, when is Congress going to move on with this impeachment inquiry?'”
Multiple Articles of Impeachment
Since President Biden took office in January 2021, Greene has sponsored multiple articles of impeachment against him. Alongside other Republicans, she has introduced various articles of impeachment during his first two years in office. In May, Greene initiated impeachment talks over Biden’s handling of immigrant crossings at the southern border after Title 42 expired.
In her recent calls, Greene has been advocating for Biden’s impeachment based on alleged involvement in his son Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings.
McCarthy’s Support
McCarthy has indicated his willingness to initiate an impeachment inquiry into Biden. As Republicans hold a slim majority in the House, they are seeking to obtain bank and credit card statements from the Biden family. Failure to provide these documents may result in impeachment proceedings.
McCarthy confirmed the likelihood of an impeachment inquiry, stating on Fox News, “It’s a natural step forward.”
Greene clarified that McCarthy is not the member holding back the impeachment inquiry. Instead, she pointed to “some of these few remaining Republicans that maybe won a Biden district.” However, she believes that the GOP conference is coming together and expects a vote on the matter in September.
