Biden Is About to Commit an Impeachable Offense, Republicans Must Respond With Fury – Opinion

As my colleague Brandon Morse reported, President Joe Biden is about to blatantly break the law to “cancel” thousands of dollars of student loan debt accrued by some of the most privileged members of society. Nothing will be cancelled. Instead, because the government will simply be out that money, the burden of those debts will be transferred from those who accrued them to hundreds of millions of taxpayers who didn’t.

It’s a disgusting, immoral move to tell a janitor making $40,000 a year that he must now foot the bill for college-educated Americans with far brighter employment prospects while receiving absolutely nothing in return. Beyond that are economic issues. How do you see inflation changing if there are millions who suddenly get rid of $10,000 worth of debt just for the sake of it?

As I stated in the opening sentence, however, it is clear that Biden’s actions are illegal. There is no federal provision that allows him to “forgive” student loan debt on the backs of taxpayers via the stroke of his pen. Nancy Pelosi is on record saying Biden doesn’t have that power. The Department of Education has said Biden doesn’t have that power. For the president to still attempt this move wouldn’t just be a pushing of the envelope. This would not be just a push of the envelope.

What are the Republicans going to do? It isn’t enough to rant on social media. Biden must be held accountable by the next Republican House and possibly Senate. That should come in the form of making the treasury account for the “canceled” debt and burning the university system to the ground via taxes and investigations. But the GOP can’t stop there. Joe Biden must be impeached.

For too long, too many on the right have been too squeamish to talk about impeachment unless it’s regarding Donald Trump. The perversion of Washington is that they’ll impeach a president over hinting at what would have been a legitimate investigation, but they’ll shy away from impeaching a president who willingly breaks the law to transfer debts to innocents who didn’t take it out. It’s time to take the gloves off. There’s more to impeachment than “perfect” phone calls and mean tweets. Biden must be taken to the cleaners, and while he wouldn’t be convicted in the Senate, getting all this out in the open is a win in and of itself. The lawlessness has to stop, and any Republican who isn’t willing to act should resign.
