In a lengthy report released on the first day of the Democratic National Convention, Republicans used circumstantial evidence to accuse the president of corruption tied to his son’s foreign business dealings.
House Republicans on Monday formally made the case for impeaching President Biden, releasing a lengthy report accusing him of corruption and seeking to allow his family to profit off his office in connection with foreign business deals made by his son Hunter, who has been charged with felony tax crimes.
In the 291-page document, released on the day that Democrats gather in Chicago to begin their party convention, Republicans call Mr. Biden’s conduct “egregious” and say he should be impeached for abuse of power and obstruction. But the report contains no proof that Mr. Biden, when he was vice president, engaged in any corrupt quid pro quo to benefit his son’s business partners, and Republicans admit they have no direct evidence that he ordered any interference into a Justice Department investigation into Hunter Biden.

They really want Harris that badly?
I think this meme really sums up current Republican feelings vis-à-vis Biden and Harris:
They’ve been saying they’ll use impeachment as both a political weapon against their enemies and as a defense to their own crimes.
Republicans used impeachment as a weapon in the 90s against Clinton, so they are just confirming they will continue.
Tbf, what he did was wrong and he lied about it under oath. While it may have been petty, it’s still more than they’ve got on Joe.
I think it backfired in Clinton’s case. “Impeached over a blowjob”, turned into more of a joke than a conviction. All that sound and fury, and Bill came out looking put upon rather than a villain.
Strictly a coincidence that it was released on Day 1 of the Democratic Convention. I can’t believe it. How crazy is that?
Republicans opportunistic timing really undersells their seriousness.
That, and the lack of evidence.
Republicans are so transparent. FFS why even support them? This is just so stupid it’s sad.
Because you’re using logic and reason. You can’t do that if you want to understand the republiQan base.
It’s a cult. Very literally. There’s a supreme leader who cannot be questioned, and members risk being excommunicated for speaking against the cult. Plus 100 other ways.
Extreme capitalistic (or “national socialist”, or religious) patriarchy is a gun to the head. That’s how it works. No discussion is requried, or wanted. Everything that seems “normal” about it is the edge of the cult where culture and language and all the human elements struggle between the cult and the real world.
