Oh, Good, Lauren Boebert Has Introduced Articles of Impeachment Kevin McCarthy shouldn't waste everyone's time indulging the whims and desires of residents of the cracker factory.

By introducing the articles of impeachment under a privileged resolution, Boebert has superseded House Republican leadership’s ability to control what comes to the House floor. By bypassing the usual process for bringing legislation to a full House vote, Boebert’s action would force lawmakers to vote on the measure in the next two days. But House Democrats announced Tuesday they will move to table the resolution, which would effectively prevent the House from considering a vote on final passage that would impeach Biden. In a GOP conference meeting Wednesday morning, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (Calif.) and other members of the leadership team argued Republicans needed to build a more concrete case against Biden and let voters see the evidence, while noting Boebert’s impeachment resolution would be dead on arrival in the Senate, according to a person familiar with the meeting who spoke on the condition of anonymity to detail internal conversations. That's what the inert Speaker of the House is selling? They "need to build a more concrete case against Biden," as opposed to whatever cartoons are rattling around in Lauren Boebert's head? How about not building a case at all against the president since he hasn't done anything wrong? Believe it or not, "Lauren Boebert disagrees with his immigration policy" is neither a high crime nor a misdemeanor.
It’s expected the resolution will be tabled when it comes up on the House floor. So what? A real Speaker would not have allowed this nonsense to draw a breath. A real Speaker would be trying to rescue the one marginal achievement of his speakership from the fangs and claws of the caucus he purportedly leads. He certainly shouldn't waste his— and our— time indulging the whims and desires of residents of the cracker factory.
Boebert is the second lawmaker from the staunchly conservative House Freedom Caucus to introduce a privileged resolution in just one week, a sign that the small group of far-right Republicans is becoming more emboldened. The group has been incensed since McCarthy largely circumvented their demands to dramatically cut spending when striking a deal with the Biden administration to lift the debt ceiling and avert economic calamity last month. The far-right flank of lawmakers was so angry over the deal that they prevented the House from voting on noncontroversial, partisan legislation for one week until they could ensure concessions from McCarthy. Several Freedom Caucus lawmakers, as well as other hard-right Republicans, relented on their floor blockade once McCarthy directed appropriators to match next year’s government funding to 2022 fiscal year spending levels and allowed an immediate vote on a resolution that would repeal a Biden administration gun regulation . As I said, lord, the children are at play again.
Boebert’s move comes after Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) introduced a privileged resolution to censure and fine Rep. Adam B. Schiff (D-Calif.) last week for investigating President Donald Trump . That resolution failed after 20 Republicans voted with Democrats to table it, specifically pointing to the $16 million fine as unconstitutional and fearing the action could set a precedent for a Democratic majority to do the same to a Republican in the minority. Luna reintroduced the resolution Tuesday evening after stripping the fine to appease moderates and libertarians. It is now expected to pass as early as Wednesday. Luna’s push could inspire other far-right lawmakers to fast-track their own prioritized resolutions that largely dabble in culture war issues that ignite Trump’s base. Boebert shouted out her effort on Twitter on Tuesday, writing to Luna: “Love your leadership on this! Thank you!” I'm going to be very happy when recess is over, assuming it ever is.
