Representative Lauren Boebert has suggested she has a plan to remove President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi from office.
Boebert, a Republican who represents Colorado's 3rd congressional district, told conservative commentator Glenn Beck on Tuesday that she had legislation to remove the president and vice president.
She also said on Tuesday that she supported the removal of Pelosi as speaker and possibly the impeachment of Secretary of State Antony Blinken as well following the U.S. evacuation of Afghanistan.
Boebert told Beck: "When you start thinking about impeachment and discussing that, you start going down the list. Well, do we really want President Harris? Do we really want President Pelosi?"
She was referring to the presidential line of succession. If Biden were to be impeached or resign, Harris would take his place, while if Harris were also to be removed or resign, Pelosi would be next in line.
Boebert criticized the possibility of Pelosi as president, saying: "She certainly has shown what she's done with the people's house here in Washington, D.C., I can imagine what she'd do with the White House.
"I have legislation that will be introduced to impeach both Biden and Harris," Boebert said. "And Nancy Pelosi can follow them out the freaking door. She certainly needs to be held accountable for this as well and we have called—as the Freedom Caucus—we have called on Leader McCarthy to introduce a resolution to vacate the chair."
Earlier on Tuesday, Boebert addressed the issue during a press conference held by the House Freedom Caucus.
My take on what's next for Joe Biden and the rest of his incompetent administration.
It's time for action! https://t.co/i69f9ExWiWpic.twitter.com/pGHendy2LW

"The blame starts at the top, with Biden and his handpicked vice president who bragged that she was right there making the same bad decisions. And if not for her own dereliction of duty, she should be impeached for not demanding we invoke the 25th Amendment," she said.
"It is time for action, impeach Biden, impeach Kamala Harris, and throw in the secretary of state if you could get him back from vacation. Take a vote to vacate the chair, to get Nancy Pelosi the heck out of here," Boebert went on.
Removing Biden, Harris and Pelosi in quick succession would be a formidable undertaking. No president has ever been successfully removed from office through impeachment and Democrats hold majorities in the House and Senate.
Moreover, the next in line to the presidency is the Senate president pro tempore, an office currently held by 81-year-old Democratic Senator Patrick Leahy of Vermont. After Leahy come members of the cabinet—all of them appointed by Biden.
Newsweek has asked Boebert's office for comment.

Boxes of rocks resent all comparisons with Bobert...
My apologies to the rocks
Rocks are not as dumb as all of that Bobert...
Bobert is old Gohmert that has gone all bad.
Considering that the Democrats have reduced the grounds for impeachment to nothing; removing Biden and Harris by impeachment is doable. But she will have to wait until after midterms when the Republicans take the House and Senate.
That will also remove Pelosi from the line of succession.
She has the right idea; her timing is just off.
President Trump conditioned official acts on a public announcement by the new Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky, of politically-motivated investigations, including one into Joe Biden, one of Trump's domestic political opponents. In pressuring President Zelensky to carry out his demand, President Trump withheld a White House meeting desperately sought by the Ukrainian President, and critical U.S. military assistance to fight Russian aggression in eastern Ukraine ." [22] : 8 In January 2020, the Government Accountability Office , a non-partisan watchdog, concluded that the White House broke federal law by withholding Congress-approved military aid to Ukraine. [23]
Considering the legal trouble she may be facing, she is the one who needs to be gotten rid of.
now being investigated by the FEC, FBI, CO secretary of state, and soon a congressional ethics committee.
More like the "Free Dumb Caucus" - a/k/a - the gop.
pfffhhhtttt.....none of them are beer drinkers. I bet they drink scotch and wine. Beer is too "common" for these elitist assholes
Oh, I don’t know about that. I have Boebert pegged at Natty Light. She may drink it from a champagne flute though. As they say, you can take the girl out of the trailer park, but you can’t take the trailer park out of the girl.
Nah...she's a hard seltzer kind of girl. I don't think she can handle beer
pffft, it's a smoke screen. that tea party twat has got both federal and state agencies investigating her.
... is an example of an irresponsible partisan who should be replaced by the voters this November.
You mean like the members of the squad?
no. boebert has actually broken laws.
I mean what I wrote. Boebert had demonstrated that she is an irresponsible partisan who does not deserve to hold her office.
but will they?
Often the voters fail to do their jobs.
Did I sleep 2/3rds of the way through 2022??
LOL Just ribbin' ya
this next
Lauren Boebert.
Because what the world really needed was a RW version of Alexandria Ocasio Cortez.
