The move against President Biden, which Speaker Kevin McCarthy has been signaling for weeks, comes as some far-right House Republicans are irate over spending and threatening to depose him.
He may or may not have. Doing it this way avoids a vote of record for many Republicans in districts Biden won or in districts that are close.
This move though was to save his own skin from a vote to remove him as speaker. Problem is they still might since there is no good way he can avoid a shut down, at least i dont think there is. The next few weeks are going to be pure chaos and even if the committe votes for impeachment then he has to take it to the whole house and that is going to be interesting.
Interesting, so obviously he didn’t have the votes.
