HouseĀ RepublicansĀ James Comer andĀ Jim Jordan, who areĀ leading an impeachment inquiryĀ intoĀ Joe Biden, refused to second a motion made byĀ Representative Jared Moskowitz,Ā 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 lawmakersā bluff in what he called a āfakeā probe.
They went after Obama for silly things like mustard and suits and putting his feet on his own desk [yes, these were actually things they got mad about] When they saw that it wasnāt getting traction they stepped back. They knew if they impeached Obama theyād never get another Black vote ever.
They were after Bill Clinton from Day One. They pushed the Whitewater probe before he entered office, and tried to make āTravelgateā [Clintonās team fired some White House staff without realizing they had tenure. ] Vince Foster was a Clinton family friend who committed suicide after the election. The GOP said he was murdered.
Both of them were key goals of Fox News. Which started under Clinton.
How is it possible one little cable network has so much power??
Well. Best not to think about it.
Because it was never just āone little cable networkā. It was a Murdoch outlet with a ton of economic and political support from the major power players of the US right wing high society from day one.
It was never not designed to monumentally sway public debate and political policymaking.
