January 1, McCarthy Warns Against Impeaching Joe Biden

While several House Republicans have called for President Joe Biden’s impeachment, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) warned against using the proceeding for “political purposes.”

Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo recently asked McCarthy if he would move to impeach Biden if Republicans win the House majority in the upcoming midterms.

“One thing we learned that the Democrats did is they – they used impeachment for political reason,” McCarthy said. “One thing we learned that the Democrats did is they – they used impeachment for political reason,” “We believe in the rule of law.”

“We’re not going to pick and choose just because somebody has power. We’re going to uphold the law. At any time, if someone breaks the law and the ramification becomes impeachment, we would move towards that. But we’re not going to use it for political purposes.”

The lawmaker vowed that the GOP will focus on “holding this administration accountable” if they win back the House.

“We will take the facts to wherever the facts go, because America’s been through too much with people playing politics with the concept of impeachment,” McCarthy said. “But if it rises to that level, we would have the law determine that.”
