Florida Republican Files Impeachment Articles Against Biden

Facts

• On Friday, Florida House Republican Rep. Greg Steube filed four separate articles of impeachment against US President Joe Biden.¹
• The four articles allege bribery and a violation of the Hobbs Act, collusion with the Justice Department, the defrauding of investors, and paying for his son, Hunter's, drugs and prostitutes.²
• This comes as House Republicans are currently considering a formal impeachment inquiry against Biden following allegations concerning family business associations centered upon his son.³
• The news comes the same day that US Attorney General Merrick Garland named prosecutor David Weiss as special counsel to investigate the financial and business dealings of Hunter Biden.⁴
• The impeachment filings follow that of Rep. Lauren Boebert, who attempted to impeach President Biden in June for allegedly failing to enforce immigration laws and address the fentanyl epidemic.⁵

Narratives

• Republican narrative, as provided by FOX News. Democrats and their friends in the corporate media have done their best to shield the Biden family, but there's ample evidence of their consistent abuse of power and shocking negligence. From Hunter's tax crimes to Biden’s failed border policies, it's time that the Biden family finally be held accountable, and this is the first step in doing so.
• Democratic narrative, as provided by The Guardian. Whether it be the outcries of the far right or the continued murmurs of the party's establishment, Republican discussions of impeachment against Biden are merely an attempt to retaliate against the plethora of charges currently facing Donald Trump. An effort to confuse Americans between fact and fiction, the Republican desire to undermine Biden in such a manner is an act of desperation that's doomed to fail.
