H. RES. 598
Impeaching Joseph R. Biden, President of the United States, for dereliction of duty by leaving behind thousands of American civilians and Afghan allies, along with numerous taxpayer-financed weapons and military equipment, endangering the lives of the American people and the security of the United States.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AUGUST 23, 2021
Mrs. GREENE of Georgia (for herself, Mrs. MILLER of Illinois, and Mr. GOSAR) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
RESOLUTION
Resolved, That Joseph Robinette Biden, President of the United States, is impeached for dereliction of duty by leaving behind thousands of American civilians and Afghan allies, along with numerous taxpayer-financed weapons and military equipment, endangering the lives of the American people and the security of the United States, and that the following Articles of Impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate:
Articles of Impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people of the United States of America, against Joseph Robinette Biden, President of the United States of America, in maintenance and support of its impeachment against him for dereliction of duty by leaving behind thousands of American civilians and Afghan allies, along with numerous taxpayer-financed weapons and military equipment, endangering the lives of the American people and the security of the United States.
The Constitution provides that the House of Representatives ‘‘shall have the sole Power of Impeachment’’ and that the President ‘‘shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.’’.
In his conduct as President of the United States, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of the President of the United States, and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, defend, the Constitution of the United States—Joseph Robinette Biden showed dereliction of duty by leaving behind thousands of American civilians and Afghan allies, along with numerous taxpayer-financed weapons and military equipment, endangering the lives of the American people and the security of the United States.
ARTICLE I
Whereas Joe Biden failed to secure the extraction of thousands of American civilians and Afghan allies before and during the withdrawal between August 14 and August 16, 2021, putting thousands of lives in imminent danger from the Taliban.
Whereas, as Commander-in-Chief, Joe Biden has armed our enemies by leaving numerous weapons, ammunition, and other military equipment which could be used against American citizens, allies, and other civilians in Afghanistan.
Whereas Joe Biden has shown the American people that his administration failed to properly prepare for the extraction of civilian and military assets from the nation of Afghanistan.
Whereas Joe Biden abandoned tens of thousands of American citizens and Afghan allies stuck in Afghanistan at danger of being captured, tortured, held hostage for ransom, or killed.
In each of these actions, Joseph R. Biden showed grave dereliction of duty and continues to demonstrate that he is unfit to hold the office of President of the United States.
Wherefore President Biden, by such conduct, has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to national security and the Constitution if allowed to remain in office, and has acted in a manner grossly incompatible with self- governance and the rule of law. President Biden thus warrants impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States.

I wonder why the MSM isn't talking about this.
maybe because it doesnt have a snowballs chance in hell with todays partisan politics?
oh it will likely be used as "fodder " in the 24 campaign , by both sides .
It doesn't fit their agenda.
If they do talk about it they will downplay it as a Republican payback for the Trump impeachments.
I hope the Republicans have lined up as many US citizens, Green Card Holders, and Special VISA holders that had to struggle to make it out of the country to interview as possible. If any didn't make it interview their family members.
Brandon seems to think grabbing as many unvetted Afghans from the Kabul airport and transporting them to the US is the same thing as getting the people he was supposed to out.
The difference is this is more legitimate than the Trump "impeachments".
And the idiot Democrats and their supporters applaud that nonsense.
You're kidding , right?
First of all it was briefly in the news a year and a half ago when the psycho Marjorie Greene filed the paperwork.
Second, US presidents dont get impeached for military actions.
Third, no one cares.
Find another hobby dude.
He isn't.
In case you missed it Republicans took control of the House. They are in charge of investigations and starting impeachment proceedings.
Abandoning US civilians, Green Card holders, and special VISA holders is a military action? Try the hell again. Bringing in how many unvetted Afghans to the US (who knows how many are Taliban, Al Qaeda, or ISIS/ISIL is a military action?
The Democrats and their sycophants in the main stream media don't care. Seems Republicans and anyone that deems US citizens valuable does care.
We all wish you would. Isn't there some anti Trump article you need to post or comment on?

I really hope the right keeps up with all this crap for two years. You will be handing the 2024 election to the Democrats.
High crimes and misdemeanors. What crime are they charging him with?
Crime? Still looking for an impeachable offense.
An impeachable offense is anything they can get to stick. We know that. But this is nothing more than tit-for-tat political theater. It's the FreeDumb Caucus saying they are playing by grade school sandbox rules.
I'm more interested in who'll be Speaker next week, than this shit.
As they demonstrated with Trump, an impeachable offense is whatever Congress says it is.
It's supposed to be "high crimes and misdemeanors", but I fear that ship sailed several years ago.
I'm not sure about "handing" it to them, but it will certainly help them.
We are learning from the Democrats. Reality doesn't matter. Smearing your opponents 24/7 across the media spectrum does.
Buckle up buttercup. The next two years are going to be all about how Brandon and the Democrats destroying this country.
That plus the looming Democrat recession should do the trick.
Democrats broke it; now they expect Republicans to play by the previous rules.
It doesn't work that way.
See, unlike the several hundred "but Trruuummmmppppp" articles you seed, this is the actual document. I guess you didn't look at the source either.
And it still doesn't answer my question in #1.
You need to really do some research.
So no one cares about abandoning US Citizens, leaving military equipment to the enemy and killing hundreds of people? Let this have happened pre-2020 and you would have your hair on fire.
I guess I could go on and on and on about somebody who has zero effect on my life because he lied like every other politician.
Extorting a foreign country to interfere in the election process, is considered to not be an impeachable offense? Based on where you have set the bar, there is nothing Biden has done, or could do, to even come close to justify impeachment.
They didn't impeach him for extortion, though, did they?
The Constitution says "high crimes and misdemeanors". But neither of the impeachment articles were actually even crimes. So the explanation was basically that Congress defines "high crimes and misdemeanors"... in other words, an impeachable offense is whatever they say it is.
I don't think so, no. But I'm not in Congress. Let's also be honest here and admit that he would have to do something insanely illegal for you to even begrudgingly admit impeachment might be a consideration. I don't expect he will.
I hope they actually show some restraint and help us start to get back to normality, but given the Jan 6 committee nonsense and the pattern of retribution that has been set over the last decade or so, I'm not particularly optimistic.
He was impeached for the actions he took to extort Ukrainian aid in the election.
The House adopted two articles of impeachment against Trump: abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.
Trump's impeachment came after a formal House inquiry found that he had solicited foreign interference in the 2020 U.S. presidential election to help his re-election bid, and then obstructed the inquiry itself by telling his administration officials to ignore subpoenas for documents and testimony.
The inquiry reported that Trump withheld military aid and an invitation to the White House to Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy in order to influence Ukraine to announce an investigation into Trump's political opponent Joe Biden and to promote a discredited conspiracy theory that Ukraine, not Russia, was behind interference in the 2016 presidential election. A phone call between Trump and Zelenskyy on July 25, 2019, was particularly important—whistleblower Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman was a participant in the call, and later informed Congress.
It's all right there in the article. Next time try reading it before comments like this.
There's no shortage of possibilities. This is just one. There is a list of shit just from his 1st 100 days. Take your pick
It lists no crimes. Read it for yourself before jumping in with unsolicited comments.
Yet there is an amazing shortage of any you are bothering to list.
You apparently didn't pay attention. I recommend finding somebody that can explain the big words to you.
I'm the one that put it up. I'm not like the left. I have the capability to read AND understand what I'm reading.
Lot of talk, but no crimes being listed. If you're just going to troll, and not support your own claims, this conversation will end.
So again.... not extortion.
Are you plagiarising Wikipedia because you actually think people don't know what happened?
That's funny because extortion isn't listed in the Articles of Impeachment. Looks like somebody's been drinking the Koolade.
Have a look yourself:
[DELETED]
That's funny because the actions he took to extort Ukraine ARE listed.
I see that reading thing is still problematic for you.
Yup, there won't be any more silly answers or pictures. There is nothing like hitting them with facts!
Nothing says "I can't prove you wrong, but you hurt my feelings and have nothing of value to add" than using memes or spamming the same inane comment over and over again.
I like to look at them on the nights that I have trouble sleeping. It puts me right out!
I see that comprehending what you read is still problematic with you.
How about not protecting the borders of the United States or not enforcing the laws of the United States. There are many reasons to impeach this proxy president.
No. Anything I've heard so far as a "reason to impeach" has been every bit as ridiculous as impeaching Trump over a dodgy phone call.
Absolutely none of that is worth the long-term damage another impeachment will do to this country.
Do you really live in Texas?
Absolutely none of that is worth the long-term damage another impeachment will do to this country.
Oh, I see, it's on the Republicans to maintain civility.
Dallas. 32 years.
Yes. Somebody has to behave like adults. Historically that has been non-Tea Party Republicans and a few centrist Democrats. Are you going to leave that to AOC or the BernieBots?
We impeach for "high crimes and misdemeanors", not "bumbling incompetence". The fact that 2/3 of Democrats live in an eternal tantrum doesn't change that.
You made a good case for preserving civility in the era of the left.
It does not fit the leftist liberal MSM narrative.
I tend to agree , but its likely there are not the votes needed in the house to bring charges , and definitely not the votes in the senate to convict , hense , snowballs chance .
then i remember who is next in line for the presedency?
really?
there is a reason i view the VP as , assasination insurance , they also fill the impeachment insurance role .
Biden played that role outstandingly .
This could be the first of many articles.
Whatever. I still want to know what the US Afghan withdrawal of May 1, 2021 as agreed to by the Trump Administration and the Taliban would have looked like.
Will never know. Since Trump lost the election; and Brandon the Human Fuck Up Machine unilaterally extended the withdrawal until Sept 13. The rest of his massive fuck up is history as he withdrew troops before getting all US citizens, Green Card holders, and Special VISA holders out.
He never had a plan for getting them out; and has "turned the page" on them using his words.
Ought to check details before you spout off.
Besides. If Trump were re-elected what would the May 1st 2021 withdrawal looked like? Dare to venture a guess?
IMO this article has it right. There are more important things on the minds of voters then investigations and impeachments. This is not to say there should not be any investigations, but the Republican majority must be smart about it come January and proactively work (and show to the public everything they are trying to do) to improve the lives of the American public. Endless investigations that go nowhere will not improve their chances for 24. IMO the voting public has a rather short fuse and demands action to improve their lives first.
But as the midterms showed- it doesn't matter what the polls say. No where on the polls was Trump listed; and Jan 6th ranked so low it wasn't even funny; yet Brandon and the media made it all about Trump; Jan 6th; and turning 70 million plus voters that cast ballots for Trump into future domestic terrorists. If Trump had given either of Brandon's two hate filled speeches threatening to use the US military against US citizens; Democrats would have impeached him instantly.
If Republicans can tar and feather Brandon and his administration for everything they have done wrong until 2024; then voters will respond appropriately. That will work far better letting Brandon, Democrats, and their media sycophants set the narrative again.
This turn the other cheek bullshit only works in parables.
That is not to say Republicans don't have to put forward legislation to help the American people; and stop Brandon and the Democrats out of control spending. Unfortunately they have to work against the McConnell Senate Establishment RINO's- that are more than willing to go along with Democrat spending largesse.
