McCarthy opposes Boebert's privileged resolution to impeach Biden
Washington Examiner ^ | 21 Jun 23 | Reese Gorman

Posted on 06/22/2023 2:30:05 AM PDT by Erik Latranyi

Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) opposed Rep. Lauren Boebert's (R-CO) privileged resolution to impeach President Joe Biden and believes her resolution can harm the House's investigations into Biden and his family.

Boebert filed a privileged resolution to impeach Biden on Tuesday, meaning House leadership has two days to schedule the vote. The resolution, if it comes to the floor for a vote, will likely face a successful motion to table as now the speaker and many other House Republicans oppose the measure.

"If we just bring something to the floor with only two days' notice, what case have you made to the American public?" McCarthy asked. "I take this role very seriously, I take swearing and upholding the Constitution. So if it ever rises to that level, I'm not opposed to moving impeachment. But just to put something on the floor because someone disagrees with somebody is not the responsibility, I believe, of doing it correctly."

Contrary to Boebert, McCarthy said, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) worked with other members on her privileged resolution to censure Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and got all the facts behind it when she brought it to the floor. It failed the first time because of its multimillion-dollar fine, not because people opposed censuring Schiff.

You support an anti-gun, pro-abortion man who throws LGBTQ+ parties in celebration of Biden’s policies.

You may as well have said that Rush Limbaugh and the EIB "protected" her too.

Fetterman syndrome...

Only Republicans have "unqualified" candidates.

If a Democrat can fill a diaper or mist a mirror, they're qualified.

I'm just noting that you have no credibility.

Pure crap. McCarthy and his minion want to -pretend- they are moving to impeach Biden. But there are angry at actually having to vote and follow throw on a time table.

Lauren called their bluff.

Translation: I didn’t want to actually DO it. He and I just agreed on the debt ceiling crime. And we are busy going street Trump right now. How dare her?!

RINOs, like the Trump endorsed McCarthy, will hide behind their “investigations” so they never have to take actions or hold actual votes.

Motions to impeach are absolutely worthless with no chance of removing Biden from office. In no way will 67 Senate votes ever be amassed to throw Biden out.

“Now DeSantis, or Ron DeSanctimonious as I call him, he came out with the six weeks. Other people agree with it. And a lot of people don’t,” Trump said in an interview with Newsmax.

“We’re in a position now – and I’m going to be leading the charge – we’re in the position now where we can get something that the whole country can agree with...”

Barf. Yes. It came from the Examiner, but nothing with any truth attached is placed on MSN.
