The nearly 300-page report is a summary of the investigation conducted by the House Oversight, Judiciary and Ways and Means committees over the past year and a half, nearly all of which has already been made public.

It argues that Biden enriched himself through his family’s business ventures and concealed his mishandling of classified information in office, the subject of the investigation conducted by special counsel Robert Hur, who declined to press charges this year.

In addition, the committees say that the Justice Department mishandled its investigation into his son Hunter Biden’s tax problems and that the White House has withheld key documents and witnesses from the impeachment investigation.

The investigators put the total at $27 million, according to the bank records they received. But the investigators failed to turn up evidence that Biden himself received money from those companies or participated in the foreign business deals beyond the occasions when Hunter Biden called him on speakerphone to exchange pleasantries while in the company of foreign business associates or when he saw them at his son’s birthday dinner.

Someone remind me… didn’t Joe Biden drop out of the race? Wouldn’t that mean that this transparent political hit job was a colossal waste of time on the part of the Republicans?

Hmm. That sounds familiar. I could swear it was a different family.

No, no, you see, it’s only nepotism when liberals do it. When Trump does it, it’s just sparkling corruption.

That’s the Republican method of operation. Accuse your opponent of doing what you are doing. When you point out that it’s their guy doing it, they just claim you are the one lying. Their base is so deeply programmed they believe it.

One of Indiana’s most progressive towns, Bloomington, was gerrymandered into a separate district from the rest of the county based on very specific town borders despite the fact that the county as a whole is also very progressive and almost always votes Democratic.

Obviously in order to dilute the vote.

Yep, Bloomington is part of the rest of that pink district. Weird how that county sways Republican, isn’t it?

For republicans, being a democrat is an impeachable offense. On the other hand if you are a republican, it is perfectly fine to send a murderous mob after other republicans, steal, defraud…

its a no lose situation for them. They water down what impeachment means by abusing it and can then say its all just politics because see how theyre people get impeached for being completely exonerated on an investigation but they lied while an unrelated question around infidelity was asked which is totally the same as trying to force a foreign leader to do a hit job on who you think your future political oppenent will be by withholding funds congress appropriated for them.

Excuse me!? Who is this in reference to??

If someone is guilty of a crime, they should be held accountable. I don’t know if that requires congress to be involved or the FBI or what but if Biden did what they say he did (for which they’ve found no evidence) he should 100% be impeached and prosecuted. I don’t care how old you are or what your job is or how long ago you were president. The rules apply to everyone. Not just the people you don’t like. However, it would seem the Supreme Court has already determined this case is baloney.

If the Republicans want to waste time and money, they should be held accountable by journalists and the people who vote them into office should be made aware of their misdeeds. Sadly, most republican voters don’t really care about reality or corruption in their own party as much as vengeance. The GOP has zero political agenda other than hating and oppressing others.
