Biden Likely Guilty of 'Impeachable Offenses', If Proof 'Leads Where We Believe it Will' - Speaker
Newly-elected House of Representatives Speaker Mike Johnson weiged in on the ongoing congressional probe into Joe Biden's alleged influence-peddling abroad, and the GOP efforts to impeach the Democratic POTUS.
Evidence may prove that US President Joe Biden committed “
impeachable offenses,” the Louisiana Republican who was recently
elected House Speaker has stated.
“If in fact all the evidence leads to where we believe it will, that’s very likely impeachable offenses, that’s listed as a cause for impeachment in the Constitution… Bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors,” Mike Johnson
stated in a US media interview.
Johnson, who himself sits on the House Judiciary Committee, referenced James Comer (R-Ky.), Chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability, and his investigation, emphasizing that documents and bank records accumulated were the reason why the House shifted into the
impeachment inquiry stage on the US President, adding:
“We are going to follow the truth where it leads, engage in due process… The evidence is coming together.”
Further along in the interview the host voiced the view, shared by increasingly many House GOP and rank-and-file Americans, as per polls, that 80-year-old President Joe Biden has been
struggling cognitively. To this, Mike Johnson agreed, and responded by referring to this as a "
concerning reality."
“If you look at a tape of Joe Biden making an argument in the Senate Judiciary Committee a few years ago and you see a speech that he delivers now, there’s a difference. Again, it’s not a personal insult to him. It’s just reality,” stated Johnson.
The new gavel-holder in the House also summed up his current vision of the Biden administration as a "failed presidency.”
Regarding Johnson's determination to proceed further with the GOP resolve to impeach Joe Biden, Rep. Andy Ogles of Tennessee told US media that in his opinion the new Speaker "is more than happy to move forward, and will move forward, and the only question is the timeline." Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene agreed, adding: “I definitely think he’ll be supportive.”
