Marjorie Taylor Greene Drafting Articles of Impeachment for Biden Over Afghanistan

Why Is Marjorie Taylor Greene Suspended From Twitter?



Republican Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene says she's working on articles of impeachment as President Joe Biden faces steep criticism over his administration's Afghanistan withdrawal strategy.

On Monday, Greene appeared on Real America's Voice' War Room Pandemic with host Steve Bannon, where she revealed that her team is currently drafting articles of impeachment against Biden.
"I have my team right now working on articles of impeachment," Greene said. "Because I'm so disgusted with Joe Biden. You know I've already filed one set of articles of impeachment. But his failure as a president is unspeakable."
Greene went on to praise former President Donald Trump, saying "Trump right now is more presidential and he's not even in the White House than Joe Biden can ever be or stand up to in the past seven months."

Greene also referenced the Taliban as she spoke out in support of Americans owning assault-style rifles.
"I wouldn't be surprised at all if [the Biden administration] are paying the Taliban," the lawmaker said. "After all, they are paying them with weapons, vehicles, Blackhawk helicopters because the Afghan army is handing them over as fast as possible."
"Anytime any Democrat ever speaks to America about gun control again, and they want to talk to you about your AR-15, you tell them right now how many weapons and how many semi-automatic weapons did you hand over to terrorists in Afghanistan, to the Taliban, ISIS and possible Al-Qaeda before you ever talk to Americans about gun control," Greene added.

Trump and a slew of congressional Republican have criticized the Biden administration for their withdrawal from Afghanistan.
"It is time for Joe Biden to resign in disgrace for what he has allowed to happen to Afghanistan, along with the tremendous surge in COVID, the Border catastrophe, the destruction of energy independence, and our crippled economy," Trump said in a statement.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said that the withdrawal from Afghanistan was "mishandled."

"The exit, including the frantic evacuation of Americans and vulnerable Afghans from Kabul is a shameful failure of American leadership," he added in a statement.
Representative Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey called on Biden to resign as president.
"I cannot believe I'm saying this, it literally is time for this president to resign," Drew told Fox News host Trey Gowdy Sunday. "It is time for this vice president to resign. It is time for the Senate president and Speaker to resign. We need new people, even new Democrats, hopefully that are moderates."

Taliban soldiers stormed Kabul on Sunday after seizing most of Afghanistan following the withdrawal of U.S. troops. Taliban claimed that "the war is over" after Afghan President Ashraf Ghani fled the country Sunday morning.
Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives on December 18, 2019, on abuse of power and obstruction of Congress charges. He was later acquitted of all charges on February 5, 2020.
The former Republican president was impeached again on January 21, 2021, on an incitement of insurrection charge following the January 6 Capitol riot.

Newsweek reached out to the White House for comment.

Pointless, but something. A for effort, nothing for execution.

 

[jward]

I would have said pointless, too, except if there really is this ground swell of disgust
for the drawdown's handling, and MSM is really colluding with the effort to throw
him under the bus. . .

 

[Nowski]

She is a good rep, however she needs to remember that
the POS demoncraps won on November 3rd 2020.

So many peoples, simply forget that one important fact.

Its their country now, not hers, not yours or mine,
or anybody who still believes in The Constitution
and the rule of law. They can do pretty much as they please,
which they will. We ain't seen nothing yet, incredible bad
is coming, not if only when.

Nothing is going to be done, to the POS Biden regarding Afghanistan.
He will be protected at all costs.

Please be safe everyone. Realize and know, that the end is now here.

Regards to all.

I don’t see the benefit of impeaching O’l Joe. He’s not calling the shots during this usurpation of the Presidency. Cutting off the head of the snake is a good idea but like tenacious weeds in the garden, we need to get weeds out completely meaning, get the roots out totally. The “roots” behind this usurpation are really deep and impeaching Joe doesn’t really provide the ultimate solution to our problems.

Well it's either this or a bunch of colonels do a variation on "Garden Plot".....

 

[Jeep]

Biden vs Cameltoe, not much of a choice. One is just as bad or not worse than the other. Both is controlled by the globalists, deep state, chicoms.

 

[Melodi]

Last week I would have said this is pointless, this week I am not so sure. It depends on if any moderate Republicans and a few Democrats start to sign on to the idea.

If that happens, then we KNOW it is time to throw Uncle Joe under the bus (as already being indicated by the comments on the mainstream media).

Like Nixon, I think it unlikely that things would get to the point of an actual impeachment trial, but if it looked like there just might be enough votes to get one started, his handlers might force him to resign.

A long shot, but not one I would totally discount either.

 

[jward]

I wish my brain was big enough to game out all the differing interests and who is
best served by which ones, but I think there are probably some roads by which
some of "them" find it useful to let "one of us" do the surgical removal of him, and
advance us to the next level of the game. :: shrug ::

I know it's way too early to enact the "President Kamala" plan, but you have a point in that they may not have a choice.

 

[CaryC]

With the Demons in control of the House, not going to happen, even if it gets to the point of his eyes going in different directions and he starts speaking in an unknown tongue.

However she has been a thorn since she got there, which is just cool, no matter what the subject.

they only have a 5 seat majority.

 

[CaryC]

they only have a 5 seat majority.

While that is true. It's still a majority and the demons while not liking their comrades, they won't have them arrested either. 'Sides all you need is one. Ask the Senate.

 

[barbarossa58]

It would be pointless to get rid of Biden without the entire rotted, deep state, infrastructure propping him up...Hell, they'll just find another...

 

[Freeholder]

It would be pointless to get rid of Biden without the entire rotted, deep state, infrastructure propping him up...Hell, they'll just find another...

Unfortunately, the cleansing needs to start with we the people. And I'm not talking about getting rid of people, but of turning away from sin towards God.

And that's just it. If you did have a "shift" within that thin DNC majority along with the RINOs, all of those Obama retreads and their K St. people would have to expect to be next in the dock and start acting accordingly depending upon their influence and reach. The "what did you know and when did you know it" has very sharp teeth.

The "Deep State" would throw these political hacks and apparatcheks to the wolves and sharks without hesitation if it comes down to it.

You get US/NATO casualties on the ground, particularly if the Taliban broadcast "snuff films" of them or civilians/government supporters and there's no telling which direction things will go or whether they'll go at all.

 

[jward]

Well ultimately, yeah.
Nothing like the dark to turn us toward the light, so I keep telling myself this is all "good".
..not simple, easy, nor pleasant, but hopefully, ultimately, part of the fuel for the
pendulum swing toward "good".

Pfffft....

Political theatre

I think there are still a few left to come into God's Kingdom, but yeah, you are right -- not too many left. Not in this country, anyway.

That is exactly how I've been looking at it. The situation is horrific and terrifying and infuriating. But, my husband is so fond of saying "everything happens for a reason," so I am assuming the reason is so we can eventually get this cesspool of a government back on track and MAGA for real.

 

[Meemur]

Pfffft....
Political theatre

Yes, but it's time to start making some attempts to shift the narrative. I applaud her (and Rand Paul's) efforts.

I don't particularly dislike MTG as she does appear to be a useful firebrand, but I'm not certain she's much more than political theatre. You're right that it's cool that she's a total thorn in the Demonrats' side; it's just that her MO seems to put focus on her own self rather than whatever issue she's on about at the time. She has stuck with the President, though, which is good.

A gesture? A reminder that maybe, just maybe they're not as all powerful as they think they are.... yet?

 

[Millwright]

HEH

They would change the House voting rules.

All votes for impeachment will be mail-in.


What could go wrong.

 

[ShadowMan]

She should make sure she includes CONGRESS and all the GENERALS that also contributed to this FAILURE! There needs to be a major purge of the State Department and the CIA as well. Someone(s) seriously need to be held accountable for this mess and lose their jobs.

 

[Josie]

Her attempt may come to nothing but someone has to do something! Rolling over and playing dead has gotten us to this point. So stir that pot, Marjorie! Let's see that happens!

 

[CTFIREBATTCHIEF]

While it is true, that if articles of impeachment are brought forward, the drunken crone that is the speaker of the house will probably just laugh at them, the point is that you are now forcing the enemy to react to YOUR moves and attempt to counter those moves. It puts THEM on their back foot for a change. It makes THEM have to start answering questions that they don't want to hear.

For too long, patriots have been told that "well we don't do that, we don't play like that, we have PRINCIPLES" Bullbleep!!! We have a totally incompetent pResident pudding cup as the face of this nation who is, by his total ineptitude,is putting our Republic in grave peril. THAT is impeachable in my opinion. Add the fact that he KNOWINGLY went along with the CDC extending the rent moratorium AFTER being told by several people that it was unconstitutional. He did it anyway. and we have it on video that he knew it wasn't lawful but he did it anyway to "buy time" THAT is an impeachable offense by knowingly and willfully breaking the law. He broke his oath to the Constitution and has served up his ass on a platter by doing it.

Will anything come of this? the articles being filed? Who knows. but I know that if nothing ISN'T done, that nothing WILL be done or discussed. The Dems will have to react to it, in an environment that is not conducive at this time, to the hair sniffer getting a whole lot of slack from anyone in his party or in the media. Add to the mixture, the first videos that come out of of our citizens being put to the sword in A-stan, then absolutely anything is possible

She should do it, and if it's slapped down, somebody else in Congress should step up, stop wringing their hands and say "we can't do anything" and do their Constitutional duty and hold this demented fool's scrawny ass to the fire. KEEP on doing it, make it the news story of the day EVERY day until he's hounded out of office. As for "heels up" hell we'll deal with her black ass too!

Our Republic is in peril. If our so-called elective representatives do not do the duty that they swore an oath to do, then they are complicit. Unlike our military, our critters can rise and do their sacred duty in perfect safety and comfort. I'm tired of hearing republicans say "we can't do anything" Well if you DON'T do anything, then you will ensure things getting worse. These shitebags need to stand up, do their jobs and the hell with how they are thought of at media cocktail parties in the swamp.

IMPEACH 46!! and convict.

 

[Old Gray Mare]

She should make sure she includes CONGRESS and all the GENERALS that also contributed to this FAILURE! There needs to be a major purge of the State Department and the CIA as well. Someone(s) seriously need to be held accountable for this mess and lose their jobs.

One step at a time.

This could be a trial balloon. We'll see where it goes. It may be to let the masses know Democrats aren't the only ones with the power to impeach? To instill doubt? Maybe they're not as all powerful as they think? Maybe she just wants to poke the Swamp. Maybe get some free press?

 

[Jeep]

I have a feeling also that all of this will blow over in a week or two if TPTB want to keep china joe in the white house. The will tell the media to forget about it and move onto something else.

 

[barbarossa58]

Or create something else...

 

[Sammy55]

Or maybe this is when the FF comes in and blows everyone's mind onto a possibly even worse event.

 

[Ragnarok]

Yes, but it's time to start making some attempts to shift the narrative. I applaud her (and Rand Paul's) efforts.

What efforts?

Empty speeches?

Haven't we had our fill of that, yet? They aren't doing anything but placating the conservatives into thinking something will be done.

Until I see ACTION, they are part of the problem.

We need a Patton not a Colin Powell

 

[bluelady]

Why not impeach both Biden and Harris? She specifically stated that she was right there with him in agreement on this one.

 

[Hfcomms]

Why not? They impeached Trump twice over nothing and this with Biden is something.

 

[Walrus]

The untold story here is that it's my understanding that every session of Congress has had its own filings of impeachment (I'm not sure as to what level of dot gov that each one was about) since the beginning of time. They only go somewhere if the Speaker wishes, and of course the great majority of filings are from the disgruntled minority. If it hadn't been for MTG beating her own drum, this one would probably wouldn't have been noticed, either. But it'll still be pitched on the trash heap out back just like all the other ones have been. No sense getting all outraged over more political theatre - waste of energy.

 

[Countrymouse]

Given the dilemma they're in (see the thread on Main about how they can't ax Joe via the 25th) the Dems might just WELCOME this.........

 

[Red Baron]

An impeachment proceeding may be the only way to force people to testify about their involvement in the Afgan fiasco?

Who knew what, and when did they know it?

 

[Housecarl]

What efforts?

Empty speeches?

We need a Patton not a Colin Powell

With what's already come out and what will likely happen next we're way past Patton territory and moving into the zones of Sulla and Aurelian.....

 

[SpokaneMan]

Yawn. Nobody will be impeached. The commies are in control now. It's up to us to rescue our Republic. And God is about to give us the green light.
