The White Home has hammered Home Republicans for saying {that a} Biden impeachment listening to will probably be held two days earlier than a authorities shutdown.
White Home Spokesperson for Oversight & Investigations Ian Sams mentioned in an announcement offered to PoliticusUSA:
Excessive Home Republicans are already telegraphing their plans to attempt to distract from their very own chaotic lack of ability to control and the impacts of it on the nation. Staging a political stunt listening to within the waning days earlier than they could shut down the federal government reveals their true priorities: to them, baseless private assaults on President Biden are extra necessary than stopping a authorities shutdown and the ache it will inflict on American households.
Their shutdown would damage our financial system and nationwide safety, furlough 1000’s of federal staff, and jeopardize the whole lot from troop pay to catastrophe aid to efforts to struggle fentanyl. They’re clearly hoping they’ll use their baseless, evidence-free impeachment stunt to attempt to divert consideration away from the results of their excessive agenda, together with their present funding proposal to slash tens of 1000’s of preschool slots nationwide and get rid of 1000’s of legislation enforcement jobs. The President has been very clear: he’s going to stay centered on the problems that matter to the American folks, together with stopping the devastating and dangerous cuts proposed by Home Republicans which can be hurtling us towards a authorities shutdown. Home Republicans ought to drop these foolish political Washington video games and really do their job to stop a authorities shutdown.
It doesn’t take a genius to see what Home Republicans are doing.
The crumbling Home majority appears to assume that they’ll distract from the truth that they’re about to close down the federal government by holding an impeachment listening to.
Home Republicans are trying to vary the topic and flip the narrative as they’ve turn out to be more and more pissed off that their Hunter Biden investigation has gotten little consideration exterior of conservative media. Any impeachment listening to that they maintain will seemingly function extra allegations with out proof in opposition to Biden.
Republicans are about to seek out out that the American folks care extra about getting their Social Safety checks and army pay than an evidence-free impeachment of Joe Biden.
