Impeach Joe Biden? Do It, Republicans! Ha Ha Ha...

McALLEN, Texas | It is the story snaking across the nation's ragged capital. Some Republicans want to impeach President Joe Biden, a Democrat. No real reason, other than that they currently hold the majority in the House of Representatives.

That's House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, a former yogurt shop owner back home in California, in the photo you see above. He's itching to do to Biden what Democrats did to Donald J. Trump when they were in power. Hate lasts forever in Washington, D.C.

But good luck with that.

It may just help Biden more than hurt him at the 2024 ballot box.

McCarthy is treading carefully, fully knowing that an impeachment now could end up blowing up on his pale face. There are not enough Republicans to impeach Biden, is what the learned pundits are saying openly and often.

This from The New Republic magazine: [ If you tune in to right-wing media, of course, Biden is the most corrupt person on earth. Millions of people believe this. Salivating Republicans have held hearings. They’ve produced no evidence of anything.

McCarthy knows this. On a Fox News appearance, Sean Hannity pressed him on whether Joe Biden (shown in photo at right) can be charged with bribery, not because he allegedly benefited from anything in Ukraine but because of his son. McCarthy dodged the question. He also said something that could have come out of the mouth of his namesake Joe: "I think there’s enough proof out there that this Biden family needs to come forward and show there wasn’t a pay-to-play." I see. That’s the modern version of prove you’re not a Communist.

Evidence doesn’t matter. They’ve already made up their minds. As the Queen said, “Sentence first, verdict afterwards.” I say let them do it. They will look insane to swing voters. Insane. Go, Kevin, go. Throw that punch. ]

He won't. MAGA types may scream and holler at him to pull the trigger, but McCarthy knows what's at stake. And you don't hear always bellicose Trump prodding him on this, do you?

But, sure, let's see what these do-nothings do.

House Republicans have passed NO signature legislation since taking over after the 2020 election.

 Yeah, go ahead, boys.

We dare you...
