President Trump has achieved a first, something that no other American president has been able to put in their memoirs. He is the only president to be impeached twice. While this isn’t something any president hopes to achieve, it is still a monumental milestone.
With just a few days left in office, the chances that Senate will convene for a trial are slim. Even if they did, it isn’t likely that there will be enough Senators looking to expedite the process. Which will leave judgment of the issue unresolved until after Joe Biden’s inauguration.
But now it seems we could be getting a two for one as Biden could soon be facing a similar predicament.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the newly elected Republican from Georgia, took to Twitter Wednesday to announce that she will be filing articles of impeachment against President-elect Joe Biden a day after the inauguration.
She said her motivation is to stand up for the 75 million Americans who are “fed up with inaction” in government.
“It’s time to take a stand,” she said. “I’m proud to be the voice of Republican voters who have been ignored.”
The congresswoman did not specify what exact charge she will level against Biden, but she tweeted out the now-famous panel discussion at the Council on Foreign Relations where Biden talked about how he urged Ukrainian officials to fire Viktor Shokin, the country’s prosecutor in 2015, while he was vice president. Biden has denied any wrongdoing.
Greene’s office and the Biden transition team did not immediately respond to an after-hours email from Fox News.
Greene has been an incredibly loyal supporter of President Trump over the last few months of his time in office but is more commonly known for her stalwart support of the Qanon conspiracy theory.
