[ [link removed] ]Sign now: Demand Speaker Johnson and House Republicans drop their
nonsense impeachment investigation into President Biden!
Dear MoveOn member,
Before the newly elected speaker held this current role, Representative
Mike Johnson did whatever he could to help Trump remain in power despite
losing the 2020 election. And now as speaker, his conquest to help Trump
reassume power continues—this time through advancing the sham impeachment
inquiry into President Biden.
In a recent Fox News interview, Speaker Johnson confirmed that the inquiry
and investigation will continue.^1 This is in stark contrast to Johnson's
role both times Trump was impeached—he voted against impeaching Trump
twice and made his name as a relative newcomer by staunchly defending
Trump's real impeachable offenses. Johnson was among the chief House
architects of the effort to throw out the 2020 election.^2 He's the
ultimate election denier. He does not operate from the truth, but instead
the MAGA agenda.
The truth is that impeaching President Biden is part of the GOP's
insidious strategy to distract voters, vilify Biden, and pave the way for
Trump to take back the White House in 2024. Trump has even been pushing
his close allies to impeach Biden, directing the entire charade from the
sidelines.^3
[ [link removed] ]Will you sign the petition to demand Speaker Johnson and House
Republicans drop their baseless impeachment investigation? This is nothing
more than an effort to reelect Donald Trump, and they are abusing their
powers.
Republicans are using a sham impeachment inquiry to advance their
far-right agenda, discredit President Biden, and reelect Donald Trump.
Demand Speaker Johnson and House Republicans drop their baseless
impeachment stunt NOW!

These MAGA extremists are simply extensions of the Trump campaign, working
to discredit Biden without any evidence. And here's the scary part: Even
if they know they don’t have any evidence and will never get any, they
could still win by carrying on and twisting the truth to their followers.
They must be stopped.
Now, after the first impeachment hearing utterly failed, Representative
James Comer, the leader of the sham impeachment inquiry, doesn't want to
hold any more public hearings.^4 This comes after a senior Republican aide
called the first hearing "an unmitigated disaster."^5 Their principal GOP
witness even claimed, "I do not believe that the current evidence would
support articles of impeachment."^6 They want to operate in private, being
able to spread lies without any accountability.
Monthslong Republican efforts to find any reason to impeach Biden have
amounted to absolutely nothing. Because the dirt doesn't exist. But
they're not letting reality stop them from carrying on the charade,
because they'll do anything to grub for political power, no matter the
cost to the rest of us.

Want to support MoveOn's work? Book bans have skyrocketed thanks to
right-wing state laws which have forced teachers to remove books from
their classrooms. In response, MoveOn is launching a "Banned Bookmobile,"
filling it with books that the far right has banned, and driving it around
to hand out those books, for free, in highly trafficked areas that will
attract media attention. To keep the Banned Bookmobile up and running into
2024, we need your help.
