The dam has finally broken on calls for President Joe Biden to be held accountable for his flagrant abuse of power with a House GOP lawmaker introducing articles of impeachment against the authoritarian leader along with Vice President Kamala Harris.
On Monday, Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) introduced his articles, accusing Biden of weaponizing the Executive Branch to “shield the business and influence peddling schemes of his family from congressional oversight and public accountability.”
Ogles’ articles come days after the power-abusing Democrat leader’s Justice Department indicted former President Donald J. Trump, the current GOP frontrunner in next year’s election, on criminal charges under The Espionage Act of 1917 – a draconian law enacted to crush dissent during World War I that was largely forgotten until it was dusted off during the Obama administration to go after whistleblowers.
“Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have refused to protect and defend the Constitution,” Ogles wrote on Twitter. “They have mired their office in criminal activity and political weaponization. It is time their corruption be brought to task with the full force of the law.”

“Joe Biden hasn’t just failed the American people with his abysmal excuse for ‘leadership’ — he’s violated his sworn oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” the House lawmaker told Fox News Digital.
“Joe Biden has repeatedly abused his position of power, both as vice president and president, to cover up his illicit family business dealings and exploitation of taxpayer resources,” the Volunteer State Republican said.
“The American people know they can’t depend on the so-called ‘Department of Justice’ to investigate the Biden family’s corruption, and so it’s up to the U.S. Congress to hold him accountable once and for all,” Rep. Ogles added.
Harris’ “high crimes and misdemeanors” include her putrid performance as Biden’s border czar and accuse the veep of having “extraordinary incompetence in the execution of her duties and responsibilities and an indifference to Americans suffering as a result of America’s ongoing southern border crisis.”
Ogles added, “Biden is a disgrace to the Oval Office and should be stripped of his position and held responsible for his high crimes against the United States” and that his diversity hire “accomplice” Harris “has demonstrated her extraordinary incompetence time and again.”
“She has allowed the land invasion at our southern border to continue unchecked, threatening the livelihoods of millions and the lives of thousands who have been murdered at the hands of illegal aliens and died from illicit fentanyl,” Ogles said.
It’s probably unlikely that Ogles’ articles will draw much support but it’s important to remember that House Democrats tried to impeach Trump several times before former Speaker Nancy Pelosi finally unleashed the dogs.
Even if more House Republicans come around on impeachment, it could the least of the despotic leader’s worries because Trump just vowed that there will be some very serious payback if he wins the election and returns to the White House, riding back into D.C. like Clint Eastwood in “High Plains Drifter” with vengeance on his mind.
On the eve of his arraignment on the criminal charges brought against him by Biden and his surrogates, the embattled ex-POTUS sent a message that he’s coming for the “entire Biden crime family” in a flaming hot all-caps Monday missive from his Truth Social platform.
