Johnson: Biden Impeachment Inquiry Result Of 'Stonewalled' Investigation
It doesn't have to be this difficult.
But Joe Biden simply wouldn't cooperate.
Biden is forcing the Republican Party to do things the hard way.
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) knows there is an unavoidable next step to take after the Biden administration “stonewalled” a Biden family investigation.
"Our three committees of jurisdiction — judiciary, oversight, ways and means — have been doing an extraordinary job following the evidence where it leads. But now we're being stonewalled by the White House because they're preventing at least two to three DOJ witnesses from coming forward, a former White House counsel, the national archives, the White House has withheld thousands of pages of evidence," said Johnson.
Now, because the White House couldn’t just cooperate, we are gearing up toward that next step -- an impeachment inquiry vote.
It seems that the Biden administration consistently forgets that we have laws that demand accountability.
It doesn’t matter who you are or how much you kick and scream.
When they were interviewed on Fox and Friends, Johnson and House GOP conference chairwoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY), had just finished up a meeting with colleagues.
In that meeting, they discussed the impeachment inquiry and came to a decision on whether to vote to authorize the proceedings.
“It’s become a necessary step. Elise and I both served on the impeachment defense of Donald Trump twice when the Democrats used it for brazen, partisan political purposes. We decried that use of it. This is very different. Remember, we are the rule of law team. We have to do it very methodically,” said Johnson.
Johnson has been there and done that. Twice.
Now, the impeachment inquiry vote is set to take place before the House recesses on Dec. 14.
If the vote falls in Johnson's favor, President Joe Biden could be in big trouble.
