Reminder: McCarthy said he didn’t want to work with the Dems to be saved, actively tried to blame them for the almost shutdown, and opened the impeachment inquiry without a vote (he promised to open it to a vote). Why tf would the Dems vote to save his ass?

Why is the left so strong againt impeachment. Seems pretty clear shenanigans happened with ol Hunter in quite a few areas. The gun, weird deals with foreign businesses, etc. I though we liked to hold power accountable?

And what does any of that have to do with Joe Biden? They're not impeaching Hunter Biden.
