Has Joe Biden Committed Impeachable Offenses?

By the standards used against Donald Trump, he certainly has.

At the end of President Trump's first term, congressional Democrats impeached and tried the president, and the one and only article of impeachment was for “incitement of insurrection.”

The focus of this charge was a statement made by the president telling the January 6th rally attendees that, "if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore”, the operative word there being “fight.” Of course, the assumption was the definition of the word fight can only include physical violence. The House managers must have never heard anyone say, “I’m going to fight this cancer with all my energy.” They certainly did not anticipate the president’s counsel playing video showing Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren, Chuck Schumer and certain impeachment managers using the word “fight” and not being charged with anything. The implication was that the president encouraged and incited violence at the Capitol, one of the results of which was the murder of a Capitol police officer. This charge was specifically included in the article. We know now it was a lie and there was no evidence then to make such a charge.

The constitutional text covering impeachment requirements includes the phrase “high crimes and misdemeanors.” The generally accepted viewpoint is that this describes any serious abuse of power, including legal and illegal activities. Any civil officer can be impeached for misconduct, violation of oath of office, or serious incompetence.

Joe Biden, in the early days of his presidency, issued executive orders stopping the construction of the border wall and the Keystone pipeline. Regarding the pipeline, this order put Americans out of work with the justification being the claim by so-called environmentalists that pipelines cause irreparable harm to the landscape, the animal kingdom, and the climate.

Last time I checked, #notmypresident is still a Leftist DEM.

Therefore, for all intents and purposes, impeachable offenses do not exist. They exist only for Repubs. /s

You can only impeach an officer that has been (legally) elected to the office.
That he was “certified” by Congress makes no difference.

Listen to Pence’s words \again\ regarding each State’s confirmation of election.

Has Joe Biden Committed Impeachable Offenses?>>>>

What Joe Biden has done to the FBI investigation of Hunter Biden and what he did to steal the election via fraud, both constitute impeachable offences,

Joe BidAn might have gone AWOL. Literally!

Hard to believe, huh?

Go to his schedule, at the top is today, and all the days since 1/20 follow in descending order. Each new day is posted the midnight before.

Except today, Saturday, April 24.

Today's entry (or one covering the weekend) is not even there.

For aviation followers, there is an FAA TFR over Wilmington this weekend, but I've seen no public news of him going there.

This aligns with the FACT that EVERY SINGLE NIGHT since 1/20 (with possibly 2 exceptions) the WH has gone pitch dark, as if on a timer, at exactly 11:00 PM.

Opening the border & welcoming invasion by a foreign country is certainly an impeachable offense.

Hang ‘em

Hang em high...

He is not a legitimate president. He cheated and everyone knows it too. He should be ousted on his butt out of that WH ASAP.
