Republicans reject motion to impeach Joe Biden
newsweek.com

House Republicans James Comer and Jim Jordan, who are leading an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden, refused to second a motion made by Representative Jared Moskowitz, a Florida Democrat, to impeach the president.

Moskowitz tried to put the motion on the table for a vote on Wednesday in an effort to call GOP lawmakers' bluff in what he called a "fake" probe.

The point isn't to actually impeach him, it's to make a big media circus that frightens and confuses voters. They want the biggest news story in the days leading up to the election to be "Biden lookin sus" as opposed to Trump's criminal history or the state of the economy, because that's their best shot at pulling votes away from him.

Re: what's his nuts FBI director coming out and a couple weeks before Nov 2016 with that email scandal that also went absolutely nowhere

The media may oblige. Clicks are clicks and the fourth estate is too hungry to worry about 2 years from now, it seems.

"Fairness."
