Marjorie Taylor Greene Backs Off Impeachment Push After Realizing She Has No Allies

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been pushing to impeach President Biden since his first day in office - which is when she released her first articles of impeachment against him. She has repeatedly called for his immediate impeachment, but this past weekend she changed her tune. Greene now says that impeachment "cannot be rushed," and that these things take time. The reason for Greene's sudden change of heart isn't because she realized she has no evidence - it is due to the fact that her own Party isn't jumping on board with her plan. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

On President Biden's first full day in office in January of the year 2021, Marjorie Taylor Greene introduced articles of impeachment against him. She has now introduced articles of impeachment against President Biden, I believe at least six times, maybe a few times above that, but at least six. She has been the leader in pushing for the impeachment inquiry that Republicans have been talking about for the last two months. And I'm telling you all that to tell you this because this past weekend on Saturday, Marjorie Taylor Greene came out and said, whoa, everybody pump the brakes. You know, we, we don't need to just dive right into an impeachment inquiry right now. Like y'all are a little overzealous. She's telling us, here's what she said again, the woman who impeached Biden or tried to impeach Biden on his first day in office now says this about impeachment.

Our country deserves for Congress to vote for an impeachment inquiry for very important reasons, not a rush impeachment vote. I mean, here's why. Uh, the committee work has proven Joe Biden lied to the American people. And not only does he know about Hunter's business deal his, he is involved, uh, for some of us that's grounds enough to go ahead and vote for impeachment. But I believe we would fail the country if we rushed to impeach because there is more at stake. You know, it's become evident that there is a vast amount of people in previous administrations, this administration, federal agencies that all worked diligently to cover up unbelievable corruption and crimes committed by the Bidens and Joe himself. We need a very tedious impeachment inquiry that allows us to take a deep dive to uncover the traitors within that conspired together, not only to keep a criminal VP in office, but then work to propel him to the highest office in the land President of the United States, all by covering up the truth and stopping Biden prosecutions from happening. The impeachment inquiry cannot be rushed. It must be done right no matter how long it takes. Patience will be the virtue that will lead us to the traitors within.

Who the hell is this person? Like, where has this person been the last two and a half years? Like, Hey, whoa, guys bumped the brakes on impeachment? We don't know all the facts, but I think I know all the facts and I would impeach 'em today, but that's not how this works. So why is Marjorie Taylor Greene suddenly changing her tune? Well, first and foremost, Marjorie Taylor Greene knows that none of the evidence that she just talked about in those posts on social media exist like we know he was involved in the business deals. No, you don't. Like you literally have zero pieces of evidence and zero witnesses to corroborate that statement. You do not know that because everybody said that actually didn't happen. So all the evidence right now points to that not happening. You see what I'm saying? So you got no evidence there. But I think

The bigger reason she's now saying, Hey guys, let's calm down a minute, is because her own caucus, the Republican caucus in the house is against her. They don't have the votes. They don't have the votes right now to even open the impeachment inquiry, let alone actually impeach him. And she knows that that not only would be a disaster for the Republican party, but her personally, that would be a disaster for her.
