Some of their own members are reluctant to vote for it because they are in districts that Biden won. But GOP leadership has to appease their most ultra-MAGA faction. However, the GOP&#8217;s road to Biden&#8217;s impeachment has run into a bit of a sinkhole. The Republican Ministry of Propaganda (aka Fox News) has altered the anti-Biden road map. On Wednesday&#8217;s episode of Fox and Friends, co-host Steve Doocy let some actual morsels of reality loose in the studio. During a segment about the prospect of the House impaneling a Biden impeachment inquiry, GOP House Squeaker Kevin McCarthy enumerated his feeble reasons for doing so&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;You&#8217;ve got IRS whistleblowers saying something when it comes to government treating the Bidens different. You&#8217;ve got an informant claiming that the Biden family had been bribed. Should you ignore that or should you investigate that? The only way you can investigate that is through an impeachment inquiry. So the committee would have the power to get all the documents that they would need.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Never mind that everything McCarthy referred to is at best hearsay. Not a single bit of it has been verified. And even Doocy of Fox News recognized that, telling his <em>&#8220;Curvy Couch&#8221;<\/em> potato colleagues, and Fox&#8217;s viewers, that Republicans are pedaling disinformation&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;We\u2019ve seen this movie a couple of times before. First step, impeachment inquiry. Almost always it leads to an impeachment. I\u2019ve heard from members of Congress on the Republican side, they are going to, they\u2019re going to do the &#8216;I&#8217; word of Joe Biden &#8230; And they\u2019re going to use the 1023 form as the basis for everything.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Here\u2019s the problem &#8230; The 1023 form makes a damning case against the Bidens, but it\u2019s completely unverified. And in fact, there are certain critical parts of the story that have been refuted by the people in the story! So it\u2019s problematic. So that\u2019s why Kevin McCarthy says we need other stuff, more documents.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Fox News host\u00a0Steve Doocy on Republicans&#39; plan to impeach President Biden:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere\u2019s the problem&#8230;.It\u2019s completely unverified&#8230;there are certain critical parts of the story that have been refuted by the people in the story!

Doocy is virtually alone at Fox News in acknowledging the fact that Republicans &#8211; and everyone else at Fox News &#8211; are purposefully lying about their case against Biden. They are basing it entirely on an FBI form that is used to record raw, unverified data acquired from unnamed sources whose credibility may be suspect.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=57006\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FBI describes the FD-1023<\/a><\/strong> as a document that <em>&#8220;does not validate the information, establish its credibility, or weigh it against other information known or developed by the FBI [and that it] regularly receives information from sources with significant potential biases&#8221;<\/em> In this case, the unnamed source referenced in the FD-1023 actually refutes the claims by made by Republican scandal mongers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=57451\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">GOP Rep Tells Fox News He Would \u2018Probably\u2019 Impeach Biden for \u2013 Um \u2013 Zero Evidence of Any Crime<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, McCarthy is sorely uninformed about the role of Congress with regard to impeachment. It is not Congress&#8217; job to investigate unfounded allegations. Their role is to consider whether facts brought out by qualified law enforcement investigations rise to the level of <em>&#8220;high crimes and misdemeanors.&#8221;<\/em> Not that Republicans care about any of that. They are focused solely on maligning Biden and other Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, Shadow GOP House Speaker, Marjorie Taylor Greene, has already filed motions to impeach DHS Sec. Alejandro Mayorkas, FBI Director Chris Wray, D.C. U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves, and Attorney General Merrick Garland. Before she\u2019s through there will likely be similar resolutions for everyone from Vice-President Kamala Harris, to Commander, the White House dog. And after McCarthy pushes through the preposterous resolutions to <em>&#8220;expunge&#8221;<\/em> Trump&#8217;s impeachments, what makes them think Democrats won&#8217;t do the same for Biden when they take back the majority next year?
