On the recordDecember 13, 2023
Extreme MAGA Republicans in the House are on a Donald Trump-directed fishing expedition. In fact, they have been on a fishing expedition for months with embarrassing results--nothing-- no bites, no evidence for anything that justifies impeachment. There are no fish to catch in this Republican swamp, and good luck to all these Republicans who have to go home and justify a sham impeachment to their districts while telling them that we haven't passed the budget, haven't reauthorized the farm bill, haven't done a single thing that helps Americans live their lives. Instead, we are wasting time on bogus censure resolutions and bogus impeachment inquiries. We have 1\1/2\ legislative business days left in the year. We should be passing bills to help working families, but that is not what we do under extreme Republicans' control. Vote ``no'' on this new fishing expedition.
