Marjorie Taylor Greene introduces articles of impeachment against Biden

U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has introduced a series of articles of impeachment this week — including a move to impeach President Joe Biden.

“Biden has blatantly violated his constitutional duty and he is a direct threat to our national security,” Greene said.

Biden ”is unfit to serve as the president of the United States and must be impeached,” she added.

This week alone, Greene has filed the paperwork to remove Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, FBI Director Christopher Wray, District of Columbia U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves and U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland, who she said weaponized the Justice Department against former President Donald Trump.

Those officials, she said on Thursday, are “corrupt and unfit to hold office and they all must be impeached.”

The standard for impeachment is “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.”

It is unclear if any of the impeachment articles will get a vote on the House floor, but we can’t rule it out with Republicans in charge and Greene closely aligned with Speaker Kevin McCarthy.

It’s also not clear that Republicans have the votes to pass them with their slim majority, especially if more centrist-leaning colleagues balk at supporting Greene’s efforts.
