Republicans Talk New Grounds of Impeachment for Biden
Published May 10, 2024 at 7:41 PM
Republican lawmakers are looking to bring new articles of impeachment against President Joe Biden after the White House threatened to withhold some aid to Israel.
Over seven months into the war between Israel and Hamas, Biden has begun to shift his approach to the conflict while escalating his public criticism of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The president took one of his strongest stances against Israel's military actions in the Gaza Strip during an interview with CNN on Wednesday, saying that he would withhold sending bombs and artillery to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) if the weapons might be used in an assault on the city of Rafah
Some Republicans have accused Biden of withholding the additional weapons shipment to help his reelection chances in November. The Democrat has faced immense pressure from the left-leaning members of his party and key parts of the Democratic electorate to change his approach to the Israel-Hamas war.
Florida GOP Congressman Cory Mills announced on Thursday that he had begun drafting the impeachment articles, which accuse Biden of abusing his "powers" to solicit a "'quid pro quo' with the foreign government of Israel." The draft, which was partially shared to X, formerly Twitter, copies large parts of Democratic Representative Jerry Nadler's impeachment articles against former President Donald Trump, who was impeached in December 2019 for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.
The House has no choice but to impeach Biden based on the Trump-Ukraine precedent of withholding foreign aid to help with reelection," Republican Senator Tom Cotton said in a post to X Thursday morning. "Only with Biden, it's true."
House GOP lawmakers have led a months-long impeachment inquiry into the president over accusations that Biden was involved in a bribery scheme while serving as vice president under the Obama administration. The investigation has yet to point out any specific crime or directly link Biden to foreign business dealings conducted by his son, Hunter Biden. Democrats have repeatedly dismissed the impeachment threat.
