Impeachment Attempts against Biden
-
Nice summary of the 14+ House bills filed to impeach Biden:
First one by Marjorie Taylor Greene on Jan. 20, 2021, House Resolution 57 -- next day after Biden was sworn in -- for Hunter Binden working with foreigners. Then ...
• Extended a pandemic moratorium on evictions (introduced by Greene in August 2021).
> • Allowed immigrants to enter the country while infected with the coronavirus (Greene again, on the same day).
> • Withdrew from Afghanistan (Greene, still on the same day; Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), the following month; and Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Tex.) in 2022).
> • Promoted a false sense of how the war in Afghanistan was going (from Rep. Randy Weber (R-Tex.) in September 2021).
• Didn’t keep building the wall on the U.S.-Mexico border (Rep. Bob Gibbs (R-Ohio) later that month).
• Failed to secure the border (Rep. Bill Posey (R-Ohio) in April 2022 and May 2023, Boebert in June 2023 and … guess who, May 2023).
• Sold oil from the petroleum reserve (guess who, September 2022).
• Failed to provide information to Congress including an FBI interview form (Rep. Andrew Ogles (R-Tenn.) in June 2023).
• Was financially involved in “drug and prostitution activities” (Rep. Greg Steube (R-Fla.) in August 2023).The WaPo article linked at the top of this post has links to formal filings for each of the enumerated impeachment attempt.
The latest:
Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) announced that he would introduce an impeachment resolution targeting Biden for allegedly engaging in quid pro quo after withholding aid to Israel.

The congress was quite quick (it seemed to me) to impeach the recent secretary. I would say that the reason not to impeach President Biden is that there is no evidence.
