House Speaker Mike Johnson speaks to reporters and members of the media after a meeting with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Capitol Hill on Thursday. On Thursday, House Speaker Mike Johnson granted his first cable-news network interview since securing his new role. He was not playing on “hard” mode, certainly; his interlocutor was Fox News’s generally pliable Sean Hannity., the questioning was gentle, like a dad giving his son a job interview at the family business.
Nevertheless, Johnson continued, “that’s the reason that we shifted into the impeachment inquiry stage on the president himself. Because if in fact all the evidence leads to where we believe it will, that’s very likely impeachable offenses.” He noted that one of the grounds for impeachment was bribery, which, he claimed, the Biden situation “looks and smells a lot like.
The Hannity interview was useful in one sense. Johnson’s predecessor as speaker, Rep. Kevin McCarthy , had approved the impeachment inquiry driven largely by Comer and Jordan. When McCarthy was ousted, it wasn’t clear what would happen. Johnson confirmed that it will move forward.could provide any evidence impugning Joe Biden or his son, by their own admissions.
There’s a truth buried in that, of course. You can do more with cherry-picked transcripts when your goal is to coat Joe Biden with insinuations and unproven allegations. Had Devon Archer’s deposition been a hearing, the final result would have been that viewers saw him admit that Biden wasn’t involved in his son’s work. There would have been multiple Democrats on hand to evaluate Archer’s testimony critically, something that does Comer no good.
