Mitt Romney was on a Sunday show yesterday and was asked about the move in the House to vote on an impeachment investigation into Joe Biden this week. He was asked specifically if he had seen any evidence that Biden had committed high crimes and misdemeanors.
Romney the RINO said no, adding that the House shouldn’t vote for an impeachment inquiry because there’s no evidence Biden did anything wrong. He suggests House members are just going after Joe Biden because of the sins of his son.
Watch:
Let me contrast this ridiculous statement by Romney with a few paragraphs from Jonathan Turley today, a professed Democrat, who weighed in on the impeachment inquiry:
In September, I testified at the first impeachment inquiry hearing and stated that the evidence had clearly passed the threshold for such an inquiry. While there was no requirement to hold a formal vote to start this process (as the Democrats did with Trump), I encouraged the members to hold such a vote.
Since that hearing, the evidence has only mounted against President Biden. It is now clear that Biden lied when he maintained as a candidate, and later as president, that he had no knowledge of his son’s business dealings with foreign interests. Even Hunter himself contradicted the president on this claim.
It is also now clear that he lied in denying that his son never made money in China. The indictment confirms massive transfers from Chinese sources.
It is also clear that Hunter was engaged in raw influence peddling. This included threatening at least one Chinese businessman that his father was sitting next to him and would retaliate against him if he did not send millions to the Bidens.
President Biden also lied when he claimed this week that he had not had any “interactions” with his son’s business associates. There are emails, audiotapes and testimony now disproving that claim.
Millions of dollars flowed to Biden family members through a labyrinth of shell companies and accounts. Hunter Biden sent emails saying that up to half of his income went to his father while they used shared accounts and credit cards for expenses.
Even Biden associates now admit that they were selling “the Biden brand” and influence with Joe Biden. Advocates simply argue that they were merely selling the “illusion” of influence.
It is now time to see if a single Democratic member will stand against corruption and support an inquiry into the president’s role and later cover-up of this corruption. That includes the use of White House staff to spread false claims and attack critics.
If a Democrat like Turley believes that Biden is guilty, then why on earth does someone like Romney refuse to see it? I don’t know the answer to that, other than to suggest he’s an elitist RINO who thinks the respect of his Democrat peers is more important than getting to the truth about Biden’s corruption.
