NEW YORK (77 WABC) — Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy vowed that Republicans will focus on “holding this administration accountable” if they win the House Majority In The 2022 Midterms.
“One thing we learned that the Democrats did is they – they used impeachment for political reason,” McCarthy told Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday after she asked if he would move to impeach Biden. “We believe in the rule of law. We’re not going to pick and choose just because somebody has power. We’re going to uphold the law. At any time, if someone breaks the law and the ramification becomes impeachment, we would move towards that. But we’re not going to use it for political purposes.”
He left the door open to impeachment if its discovered they find that laws were broken by the administration.
Last summer, a wave of Republicans called for Biden to resign or be impeached over the chaotic withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan.
The Taliban swiftly took control of the country. Thirteen U.S. service members were killed in a bombing attack outside Kabul airport.
