Joe Biden impeachment

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/joe...inq-rcna127752

Mike Johnson thinks he has the votes. This may actually get off the ground.

Obvious distraction from Republican George Santos getting expelled from Congress.

It's misdirection, you rubes.

It will go nowhere.

As it always has.

Yeah, this won’t change anything. He’s not going anywhere…unfortunately.

It won't change anything. But like the less legitimate impeachments of Donald Trump, I'm sure the hope this will help put him in a negative light at an important time. And drag out stuff about him the media doesn't want to talk about.

Andrew, I hate to say it, but the guy is untouchable, and so is his entire family. The Establishment will do everything in their power to protect Biden from scrutiny and will try to make the People feel like idiots for questioning his leadership. And even people who think Biden is unfit will still defend him because they know that the alternative would be either Trump or DeSantis, and they’d rather let the country burn to the ground than kick Biden out. Either that or they don’t pay a speck of attention to what’s going on in the world and just know to vote blue no matter who.

Besides, you really think the Democrats are gonna follow the rules and let any Republican candidate win the next election?

In regards to the laptop story, Sam Harris said that Hunter could’ve had “corpses of children in his basement”, but if keeping that fact hidden from the public would mean helping Joe beat Trump, then the government would be justified in committing such an unconstitutional act. This is the scary reality we live in right now, when TDS triumphs over rational thought and morality

It actually reminds me of the cult in Jonestown. The members eventually found out that Jim Jones was a fraud and they knew that it was wrong to beat and abuse their fellow members and even their own children, but they were so committed to their cause in building a communist utopia (and too afraid to offend the rest of the flock) that they still followed Jones. And look what happened: Over 900 members died in Guyana, more than 300 of which were children.

If we just look at the popular vote (and that's absolutely what you should do in a democracy), Republicans have won ONE presidential election in 35 years. Are you implying the Democrats have been cheating every single time, just last time or is next time the first time?

Maybe before 2016 they’ve always played by the rules. Then again, this is the same party that created the KKK to intimidate the recently freed slaves and the Republicans. So who knows? Besides, no matter which side it represents, the federal government is nothing but a big cesspool of corruption and power play

Trump was impeached twice and never removed from office. There have only ever been four Presidential impeachments. Two were Trump.

Even in the very unlikely event that he is impeached by the House, he almost certainly would not be removed from office as it's never happened to a president (requires trial by the Senate and a guilty verdict which has a very high standard.) So it's just a big dog and pony show.

In the super unlikely event that it passes in the House, the only purpose it's gonna serve is to make those who hate Biden get their jollies off, with no real consequences. It's a big waste of everyone's time.

I mean, you're not wrong. But it isn't the right that opened the bottle about this kind of stuff.

LOL. Nice try.

*Bill Clinton's impeachment enters the chat.*

PS - the lack of a *single* comment about George Santos is very telling. Wouldn't you say?

This is going to be the new normal going forward.

if the other team has the numbers in the house, Impeachment.

There'll be another 5-10 impeachments in the next 30 or so years. Whoever wins in 2024, will be facing impeachment be 2027.

If a president goes without being impeached, that'll be the odd one out.

If this could make the two-party system crumble, it would be a blessing.

If that was remotely a possibility... sign me up. The republican party as it stands is beyond laughable. Beyond a few... these are jokers. Preferable to the others, sure... but these are just jokesters getting a check.

Except at that time, the Democrats sat roughly on the political spectrum where the Republicans are today, and vice versa. In others words Democrats in 1860s were more right wing than Republicans. Ergo if the KKK formed today, it would be via the Republican Party instead…

Reposting for Andrew "Not Backing Down." Since, you know. He made a claim that was easily refutable.

What's that called when a person does that again? Repeatedly even.

Rhymes with "fire," I think. Or "perspire."

Starts with "L," I believe.

Wish I could remember what that word is!

Oh, well. Andrew sure likes to act like he's knows everything. He probably knows the word I'm trying to think of!

You sure nothing’s changed? After all, they want black people to believe that they’re “sellouts” if they vote Republican, as if they are still the “property” of the Democrats. President Lyndon Baines Johnson infamously stated, “I’ll have those n——- voting Democratic for the next 200 years,” and his legacy was black dependency on welfare and even the destruction of the black family. Yes, the old South was Confederate and racist, but there was no “party switch”. The reason the South became Republican by 1994 was because since the 1980s there has been a mass exodus to the southern states, and the racist older generation that lived through the Great Depression eventually died off, leaving the South to the younger Republican voters that were raised in the less racist parts. Of course the South still has racists (trust me I know).

Biden said, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black.” By the way, Biden’s mentor, Robert Byrd, was once a member of the KKK. In 1977, he didn’t want his children to “grow up in a racial jungle” thanks to desegregation policies. And he even called Obama “the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean.”

And what does “right-wing” even mean anymore? Being colorblind? Judging people based on their character and not their color? Protecting parents’ rights? Giving more power to the communities and not the government? Free speech?

Why should only “right-wingers” oppose the return of racial segregation in schools? Because it’s “progressive” and giving non-white people “safe spaces”? If being more “progressive” means calling for racial divide, then no thanks, bub.

Ah yes, conveniently forgetting the Great Party Switch. If you cross-checked every Klansman's party registration I can guarantee you one party has more members than the other, and it won't fit into your narrative.
