Chairman Comer’s flailing and unauthorized ‘impeachment inquiry’ into President Biden simply ran right into a brick wall of arguments by the White Home that ought to actually make him rethink the entire embarrassing and self-destructive train. The legislative course of is designed to reinforce the widespread good of the folks and may by no means be used simply to smear and harass a President, his White Home workers, and folks in his household.
All through this investigation, Chairman Comer has distorted plenty of details, invented some, and hid the proof in an effort to distract from his utter failure to seek out any proof of wrongdoing by the President, a lot much less an impeachable offense.
These current subpoena and transcribed interview requests are one other useless try and intrude with the justice system and present particular counsel investigations. With the doable exception of Donald Trump, no person is impressed by the Chairman’s requests.

The White Home goes to battle the subpoenas and the truth that the Home hasn’t licensed the investigation, or given a legislative function for the probe may imply that the White Home has a superb probability of profitable, or at minimal tying up the investigation in courtroom for a really very long time.
Home Republicans ought to rethink this abuse of energy misadventure. Home Republicans have to cease weaponizing their oversight powers earlier than voters kick them out of the bulk subsequent November.
