Author Aldous Huxley once said, “you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you mad.”
Such a moment of madness has arrived in Congress as members prepare to vote on the formal approval of an impeachment inquiry. The second indictment of Hunter Biden shattered long-standing denials and narratives repeated by the White House and members of Congress. What is left in its wake is now plain to the public: corruption. The vote is not whether to impeach President Biden, but whether members support the investigation into these growing allegations of corruption by the Biden family.

This article is right on, and I seriously doubt even one Democrat will stand for the truth, but rather still deny deny deny, which has become their mantra for so long it is second nature nature, hell it is their first nature actually, even when evidence of the contrary is so obvious and staring them in the face. You won't get an honest answer from any of them, they will go down with that proverbial ship and sink with it! So go ahead and drown dumba**es.

A few years ago it was the “Clinton Crime Family,” and conservatives were aghast. Little did we know that the Biden family corruption would make the Clintons look like minor leaguers. This is insane. Even more insane is that so many people in polls still intend to vote for Brandon.

FTA: "...it makes no sense to insist that there is no direct evidence while opposing efforts to establish such evidence."
This is also the elitist/liberal/Leftist/Progressive/Dem* stance on voting fraud, various aspects of transgenderism, the 6 Jan "insurrection" and climate variation, among other things.
I think it is a mind-set, not a political position. That mind-set being, "I know better than you. Shut up and do as I say. We don't need no stinkin' investigations."
*I can't call them "Democrats" or their party "Democratic".

The truth is in plain sight but few democrats will ever face it. Insane die-hards like Hillary Clinton, Ninny Pelosi and Adam Schiff are still screaming that Russian collusion got Trump elected in 2016. Only those who understand that it's all been a farce will finally give up the charade and begin the birth of a new one.

I predict they'll vote in lockstep against an impeachment inquiry. I'm reminded when a few democrats denounced Clinton's behavior, but voted against impeachment and conviction anyway. They are into power, and anything that might diminish their power has to be stopped.

Sorry, Prof Turley.
This indictment is just the way the Biden crime family and their enablers are going to shut down any further action.
Weiss and his crew colluded with Hunter's Lawyers to pull a fast one until the local judge called them on it.
They're busy looking for the most incompetent US Attorney who will delay the case as long as possible and then screw it up if and when it goes to trial.

Republicans could produce video evidence and eyewitnesses to Biden committing crimes and democrats will excuse it if they can’t explain it away . Because Trump is hitler and republicans are nazis.

#7 Former whatever Claire McCaskill refers to MAGAs as wackadoodles. That might be worse than being called a nazi.

#4, your comment "The truth is in plain sight but few democrats will ever face it. Insane die-hards like Hillary Clinton, Ninny Pelosi and Adam Schiff are still screaming that Russian collusion got Trump elected in 2016."
Or course they won't face it, but they NEVER believed it was true. How could they? They made it all up.

The only question is, who will step forward on the Democratic side to demand not impeachment but answers?
If John Fetterman does it I'll know for sure it's Pod People!

The reason they have to change batters is not the corruption, but the polls.
They know going in to the vote that they have to cheat at least 20%, not 5%!
That takes a lot more computer hackers and ballot stuffers.

Mitt Romney doesn't know his civics. It wasn't a vote to impeach Biden, just to study his responsibility. Good thing he never made it to the White House. What an ignorant blow-hard!

Let's talk about Joey's favoring the Hildebeast to further his election. She knows all about pay to play having done it herself. Maybe Joey should have consulted her first.
