Representative Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.), a member of the House Oversight Committee, is joined by Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) and Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio). provoked a vote on impeaching President Biden. , claimed that he would do so if indeed enough evidence was found that he had committed high crimes and misdemeanors.
The exchange took place during Moskowitz’s allotted time to question witnesses before the committee, where he first accused Hunter Biden’s former business associate Tony Bobulinski of accusing Biden of high crimes and misdemeanors. I asked him if he thought he should be impeached for his crimes.
“I believe that with all the evidence he has gathered, he has proven that Joe Biden committed high crimes and misdemeanors,” Bobulinski said.
“Okay, so I assume you believe Joe Biden should be impeached,” Moskowitz asked.
Bobulinski responded, “Well, that’s up to you guys,” and later said under pressure from Moskowitz that he did believe Biden should be impeached.
Moskowitz then asked if Comer and Jordan believed Biden had committed a felony or misdemeanor.
“I know he committed high crimes and misdemeanors, and I was involved and saw them happen,” Bobulinski responded.
“I think you believe he should be impeached. But what I’m saying is, the Speaker hasn’t moved on that yet. So look, Mr. Speaker, here’s about three and a half minutes. We have time. I mean, let’s just do it.’ Impeachment,” Moskowitz asked jokingly.
“So if you’re going to impeach him because you believe he’s proven he committed high crimes and misdemeanors, why continue to waste millions of taxpayer dollars?” he added.
Moskowitz went on to make a derisive motion for a vote, asking either Jordan or Comer to vote on it, but neither did so.
Jordan countered that the Republican-led committee would not do an “immediate impeachment,” referring to the 2019 Democratic impeachment of then-President Donald Trump.
Mr. Moskowitz continued to provoke the chairs until five minutes had passed.
