In a recent interview, Nancy Pelosi did not hold back in expressing her disapproval of the Republicans’ impeachment inquiry into President Biden. She drew distinctions between this inquiry and the previous impeachments of former President Trump. Here’s the whole story.
The Interview
During an interview with MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart, the 83-year-old politician said, “They’ve had months, almost this whole year, going on nine months of investigations. They’ve come up with nothing.”
The Contrast
Pelosi went on to draw a sharp contrast between the impeachment of Trump and the current inquiry into President Biden.
Trump Impeachment Had Evidence
She explained, “When we engaged in impeaching [Trump] because we had no choice, we were accusing him of high crimes and misdemeanors, which were evident. And even Republican senators voted for in terms of Ukraine and in terms of the assault on the Capitol. But this is almost silly, except that it’s so serious.”
Divert Attention
The former Speaker voiced concerns that the ongoing impeachment inquiry would divert attention from more pressing national issues.
This Is Sinful
She continued, “This is sinful. Again, it’s about values. Our budget should be a statement of our values. And what is important to us as a nation should be reflected there.”
They’re Being Frivolous
“Our Constitution is what we take an oath to protect and defend. And in both cases, they’re being frivolous,” she added.
The Inquiry
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced the inquiry into President Biden earlier in the month.
Illegal Foreign Business Dealings
The decision to launch the investigation was prompted by rumors suggesting potential illegal foreign business dealings involving the 80-year-old President and his son, Hunter Biden.
Abuse of Power
“These are allegations of abuse of power, obstruction, and corruption,” McCarthy said when announcing the inquiry.
Trump Weighed In
Former President Trump also weighed in on the impeachment inquiry during an interview with Megyn Kelly. Trump implied that if the Democrats had not impeached him twice during his presidency, the current inquiry into President Biden might not have occurred.
It’s a Shame
He said, “And it’s a shame when that happens. I’m not in favor of that, but that’s what’s going to happen because that’s human nature.”
