White House and the entire Democrat Party. Before we get started, please make sure you like, comment, share, and subscribe

Speaker Johnson was giving a weekly presser, his first, to reporters when he was asked
0:29
about the impeachment of Joe Biden. Now, as you know, the House is currently engaged in an impeachment inquiry and that's an evidence
0:36
gathering, you know, evidence gathering procedure that the House does before they decide whether
0:43
or not to impeach. Now, what Johnson responded to this with, I thought, was rather telling
0:51
It separated Democrats from Republicans, but it also gave a hint, in my opinion, into the
0:55
future for Biden, for the Democrats, and even for the Republicans. Let's take a look
1:00
Many of you know my background, I'm a constitutional law attorney. I believe this is a very serious matter
1:06
I was called upon to serve on the impeachment defense team in the House twice under President
1:11
Trump when the Democrats used it for raw partisan political purposes and I decried that at
1:16
each step of the way. The reason is because the impeachment power that we have in the Constitution, in the House
1:21
specifically, next to a declaration of war, you could argue it's the most, it's the heaviest
1:26
power that we have and it cannot be wielded for political purposes. So I have been very consistent, intellectually consistent in this and persistent that we
1:35
have to follow due process and we have to follow the law. That means following our obligation under the Constitution and doing appropriate investigations
1:42
in the right way, at the right pace, so that the evidence comes in and we follow the evidence
1:47
where it leads. We follow the truth where it leads. As we stand here today, I'm not predetermined that, but I do believe that very soon we are
1:53
coming to a point of decision on it. We're in the impeachment inquiry phase, as you know, which is an important step in that
2:00
due process and what you're seeing right now, although a lot of American people are anxious
2:04
about this, many, you know, Republicans across the country are anxious to get to the end
2:08
point on this and I think some Democrats want to know how it ends as well
2:11
What you're seeing right now is a deliberate constitutional process that was envisioned
2:16
by the founders, the framers of the Constitution. This is how they envisioned this to go, not the way the Democrats did it
2:21
Snap impeachment, sham impeachments and all the rest. So I know that, um, I know that people are anxious about it, but I will say, uh, Chairman
2:28
Comer, Chairman Jordan in judiciary, uh, Chairman Smith in ways and means they've done an extraordinary
2:33
job very methodically. And I, I would say outside the scope of politics, they've been taken in the evidence as it goes
2:39
So we're going to follow the evidence where it leads and we'll see. And I'm not going to predetermine it this morning
2:44
Now if you listen closely to what Johnson's saying, it's easy to believe that an impeachment
2:48
is likely in the very near future. It seems to me that he's setting the stage, but he's also saying, look, we're not going
2:55
to do what the Democrats did. We're not going to rush this. It's not going to be a sham. This is going to be real
3:00
We're going to have real evidence and real reasons, real reasons to impeach the president
3:05
And that's important. That is so important when you're doing an impeachment, because a lot of people look
3:12
at the impeachments of Trump as a sham, as a political operation
3:16
That's why a lot of people don't find them to be legitimate. I want to know what you guys think about this
3:21
Do you think Joe Biden should be impeached? And if you do, for what reason
3:25
Let me know in the comments. Also please remember to like, share and subscribe
