Here are the details…
In a move that should’ve happened soon, Republican Senator Ted Cruz has just come forward and stated that there are “multiple grounds” for President Joe Biden’s impeachment if the GOP can retake control of the House following the midterm elections.
In a recent interview with conservatives Michael Knowles and Liz Wheeler, Cruz was asked if they would attempt to impeach Biden if they gained House majority. Cruz responded, “I do think there is a chance of that, whether it is justified or not, as we talked about when Verdict launched, the Democrats weaponized impeachment. They used it for partisan purposes to go after Trump because they disagreed with him.”
Cruz later said, “I think there are potentially multiple grounds to consider for impeachment. Probably the most compelling is the utter lawlessness of President Biden’s refusal to enforce the border. His decision to just defy federal immigration laws and allow 2 million people to come here unimpeded in direct contravention of his obligation under Article Two of the Constitution to take care that the laws be faithfully executed.”
Adding, “That is probably the strongest grounds right now for impeachment but there may be others. Because the Democrats decided this is just another tool in the partisan war chest I think there is a real risk that this turnabout will be fair play.”
WATCH:
Senator Ted Cruz said that he thinks there are “multiple grounds” for president Joe Biden’s impeachment and that a Republican House would be under “enormous pressure” to begin procedures.
