Elise Stefanik Backs Biden Impeachment Inquiry

Republicans are finally talking about impeaching Joe Biden after he’s likely committed thousands of impeachable offenses. 

After dismissing calls for impeachment as recently as last month, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy finally backed a “non-imminent” impeachment inquiry as damning revelations continued pouring in from the many probes into Biden family corruption.  

Now, Rep. Elise Stefanik is the latest top Republican to back an impeachment inquiry, telling Maria Bartiromo she “absolutely” supports one. “I'm in conversations with Speaker McCarthy and all of our members. The important thing to know about an impeachment inquiry is that it ensures that the House is at the apex of its power and oversight responsibility. It means that our subpoenas have the most power possible when it comes to litigating this out in court because we know getting the facts is not going to be easy,” Stefanik said. 

“We know this White House, this Department of Justice, they are trying to cover up for Hunter Biden and ultimately Joe Biden,” she continued. “What is important that you mentioned at the beginning of your statement is the White House is trying to quietly change its language. First it said that Joe Biden never spoke to his son about Hunter's business dealings. They have now changed that language to now saying Joe Biden has never been in business with Hunter Biden's business operations. That is a significant change…” she continued.

Stefanik was referencing a recent change that Karine Jean-Pierre made in responding to allegations about Joe’s involvement in Hunter’s business dealings. KJP used to claim that Joe wasn’t aware of Hunter’s dealings, but has since changed her defense to claiming that Joe “wasn’t involved” in them. 

Some Democrats are already speaking out against the move, with former Trump-impeachment manager Adam Schiff complaining, without a hint of irony, that “The Republican desire to impeach someone, anyone, no matter whether there’s any evidence just shows how they have descended into chaos.”
