Calls Grow to Impeach Biden Over Exchange With Then-Afghan President Ashraf Ghani
“This is the phone call, instead of the one between Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, that should lead to impeachment.”
According to an explosive report from Reuters, Biden asked then-Afghan President Ashraf Ghani to lie about how things looked in the country before the withdrawal of American troops.
People are starting to call for Biden’s impeachment over this, noting that Democrats impeached Trump for less.
Miranda Devine writes at the New York Post:
Joe Biden’s call to Afghan prez is impeachable: Devine
Psst, Nancy Pelosi! Still looking for a phone call worth impeaching a president?
Do I have news for you.
Reuters has a bombshell report about a July phone call between Joe Biden and then-Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani, in which the US president promises military aid in return for lies.
The “perception around the world and in parts of Afghanistan, I believe, is that things aren’t going well in terms of the fight against the Taliban,” says Biden in the July 23 call. “And there’s a need, whether it is true or not, there is a need to project a different picture.”
Whether it is true or not.
No, things weren’t going well, three weeks after the US abandoned Bagram Airfield in the dead of night…
“Was the president in any way pushing a false narrative in that call?” a reporter asked White House press secretary Jen Psaki Wednesday after the Reuters story broke.
“I am not going to go into the details of a private conversation,” she replied.
Hah! That sure wasn’t the Democrats’ standard when they impeached Donald Trump last year over a leaked phone call with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Jen Psaki’s about face on this would give you whiplash. Here she is this week:

This is her on Trump in 2019:
It is not just the call transcript. The whistleblower complaint would likely have more details. We need both. And not just the call.
— Jen Psaki (@jrpsaki) September 24, 2019
Why shouldn’t Biden be impeached for this?
IMPEACH HIM!
Joe Biden asked the President of Afghanistan to LIE!
In the transcript, Biden told Ghani to say that the fight against the Taliban was going well "whether it is true or not."
The Afghan President responded, "Mr. President, we are facing a full-scale invasion…"

I mean they literally impeached the last guy because of the details of a private conversation https://t.co/I85WfpvM1h

Wow, the President of the United States had a call with a foreign leader where POTUS asked the leader to lie on his behalf, and promised military assistance if he did as he was told. Do I have that right?
— Ben Domenech (@bdomenech) September 1, 2021
On a call with Afghan President Ghani in July, Biden told him to LIE “to project a different picture” of the war.
At the same time, Biden was repeatedly LYING to the American public.
The result of Biden’s LIES was 13 brave Americans losing their lives.
HE NEEDS TO RESIGN!

Nick Arama writes at Red State:
Couple this with the story I did earlier on Biden waiving briefing Congress on the actual facts of the terrorist problem and the weakness of the Afghan army. So he’s telling the Afghans to put out a false story while stiff-arming Congress as to the real facts.
That combined to make the perfect storm for the debacle.
The White House is now refusing comment, and it’s no wonder because they deserve to get ripped apart over it. This is the phone call, instead of the one between Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, that should lead to impeachment.
Joe Biden is unfit to be Commander-in-Chief.

Last word goes to Jesse Kelly:
The GOP has always been the unilateral disarmament party. Democrats will spend four years doing everything to kneecap a GOP president and the GOP will respond by doing absolutely nothing.
There’s a reason the communists won the war for America. They were the only ones fighting. https://t.co/QhBs3mup9C

The Turtle McConnell is NOT our friend, not on our side.
He is also owned by the Chinese, via his wife’s family.
Care to show me which part of the constitution gives the senate minority leader the ability to launch an impeachment of the president?
You’re wasting you’re time with impeachment.
At worst you end up getting rid of 10% sleepy China Joe and he’s replaced by kamil hoe Harris.
What you haven’t done is get rid of all those strung pullers behind the scene that created the fuck up of HISTORIC proportions in Afghanistan. They will still be there pulling the strings.
Much better to let 10% sleepy China Joe being himself in front of the nation and forcing Democrats to own the abortion of his Presidency.
That’s why impeachment would not be a waste. Get Harris in there and prove she’s as much of a fraud and failure as Joe because of her handlers.
Then, put in Pelosi and prove she’s as much of a fraud and failure as Joe because of her handlers.
Then after that – Pat Leahy, the President pro tempore.
I used to believe that we got the government we deserve, but not any more. NOBODY deserves Biden*, Harris, Pelosi and Leahy. I am starting to warm to the theory that God hates us and wants to punish us severely.
All those people who voted for Biden deserve him. All those who tolerate the corrupt election officials in Pennsylvania and elsewhere deserve Biden, even if they didn’t vote for him.
If God sent Israel and Judea into captivity, because of worshipping false gods and child sacrifice, what makes anyone think God will not punish the USA?
Well, it would depend on who The Ho (or rather her string pullers) nominated for VP, because if there was a nomination and it gets past Congress, that person would be next, e.g. Gerald Ford.
Why?
Who are her handlers? Who are yours?
Cheap ideas, Bear, it’s not the why, it’s the how.
The why is well we just know.
Apparently we don’t know the how.
We must be really stupid.
I know I am.
It absolutely is a waste of time simply because you still have all the fucking decision makers hiding in the shadows in place. No one capable of rubbing two or more brain cells together believes 10% Creepy Joe is calling any shots other than for his wet nurse.
“A waste of time” – right now, that’s what we need. We need to run out the clock on Dem control of Congress & the White House. C’mon, we know an impeachment vote would fail even if it was to get to either chamber. But it would be news – it would be opportunity after opportunity to make the case that the Democrats are incapable of leading. It puts the focus on the morons in charge – where it needs to be.
Exactly. One impeachment at a time. I expect the Dems to remove Biden by the end of the year anyway. Things are gloomy enough for the Dems without having their party leader being the heaviest anchor. We are probably heading for a major constitutional crisis once the ball gets rolling. No one likes the constitutional options and I expect “both” wings of the Uniparty will try to negotiate around them.
Where did anybody say it would originate in the senate?
You’d be replacing a zombie who responds to everything he is told with “Yes, master” with a “vibrant, diverse, and ignorant” spitfire who would insist on expressing her own personal incompetence despite the orders of her handlers to make her own mark on history.
Yeah, I’d make that trade in a minute. Mistakes cratered Joe in seven months; mistakes squared would crater Kamala in three.
…especially because the moment Kamala takes the Oval Office, we regain the Senate.
You’re missing the obvious benefits of impeachment proceedings. Democrats are absolutely NOT going to allow him to be impeached. That would be admitting that he’s a pathetic failure.
They MAY try the 25th Amendment and claim that ‘nobody could have known’ how bad he would be.
But they WILL NOT allow him to be impeached. So the key is to force the sack of crap Democrats to go ON RECORD voting to keep this demented moron in office after this disaster, and force them to defend that vote.
But of course Bitch McConnell won’t do that, because it would actually work, and make the Democrats look like the scum they are.
But he won’t do it because he knows goddamn well that a huge number of RINO trash would ALSO vote to keep Biden in place, and it would expose just how utterly disconnected they are from the base they claim to serve.
Last I checked a grand total of TWENTY-FIVE Republicans had actually taken the weak stance of signing the letter demanding Biden resign. Out of 213 House and 50 Senate. Less than 10%. Meanwhile as of a few days ago 83% of Republicans want Biden impeached over this disaster. The divide between the base and our ‘representatives’ has never been more clear.
Refusing to consider impeachment is purely Bitch McConnell protecting the RINO scum like Grahamnesty and Pierre Delecto from having to take a vote that would expose the fact that they DON’T WANT Biden gone.
Hell, McCarthy still hasn’t followed through on his weak bluff to remove Cheney and Kizinger from committees.
As I have said for the last year. Conservatives WILL NOT WIN with RINO trash like Bitch McConnell and McCarthy as their ‘leadership’.
What we’re wasting our time with is democracy.
We don’t live in a democracy…
I think we should impeach and remove Biden* because he likes ice cream.
Well, why not? The Communists impeached Trump twice for no valid reason whatsoever. One impeachment came AFTER the J20 coup and Trump was removed from office because of a stolen election.
If the Republicans win the House in 2022 (spoiler alert: they won’t), they should impeach Biden* every hour on the hour. Thanks to the Communists and their Franz von Papen Republican sidekicks the impeachment/removal process is already an unfunny gag at our expense. So it is time the Communists Usurper in the White House gets to be the butt of the joke.
Kamala has pretty much gone into hiding, as if she fears being preemptively double-tapped.
And who knows, Biden might then nominate Hillary as VP.
You didn’t think she’d given up, did you?
Joe hasn’t told a truth in his life I think, can’t hold him accountable for telling another leader to lie out his ass because the Propaganda Ministry will cover for him.
Biden didn’t do anything wrong. At least supposing he didn’t ask for money.
And if he did, the liberal press will still say he did nothing wrong.
In any event, let this one pass. Publish the call, show how he is a duplicitous asshole, but any impeachment drive will fail in Congress. Of course, do you really want Cackles as president?
Legally or politically?
So do we now apply the Noah Feldman standard he applied in his testimony to Congress in Trump’s 1st impeachment? I would love to hear from him now.
Asking for money is extortion. Offering it in exchange for something is bribery.
No, he did the same thing he did to the Ukraine: “Do what I tell you, or I’ll hold up your aid.” The first time he did it, he was only vice president. Now he’s president, and the impeachment hammer is available.
The standard of “not doing anything wrong” does not apply to impeaching the president any more. The GOP needs to follow the same rulebook as the Dems.
How bad do his actions need to be for you to say he did?
There is none so blind as he who will not see.
.
To be fair if you impeach Biden you get Kamala and she’s an even more awful option for the White House so unless you can impeach Biden, Kamala and Pelosi at basically the same time, why bother?
Keeping Biden in the White House allows Republicans to use his crimes, and Democrat circling of the wagons, to encourage voters to support them next election, or at least not vote Democrat.
Another issue with ,-la taking over. 2024’s election will be “the GOP is racist because they are running a white male, while WE have a candidate that ticks all of right boxes.”
“Sure, she’s proved herself to be a total loon, but…
Look, a squirrel!”
Even if impeached, there’s no way enough Dems will vote to convict. Impeachment nowadays is just a political tactic to hurt the reelection bid of a president by a House controlled by the other party.
When Biden crosses his legs he looks like a frappin’ prissy.
Maybe he and Jill (the phony doctor) should double-date with the emasculated Harry.
Where is Biden’s health report? Trump released his, even showed what meds he was on. What meds is Biden on? His report was supposed to be released months ago. I guess since he’s mentally and physically unfit and taking medicine we’re not supposed to know about, we’ll never see it.
You’re only asking because you are a healthist.
I was asking for a friend. So there.
Biden’s spent the last two months cramming for his urine test.
Cramming with what? And where? Inquiring minds want to know. Or maybe not.
Cranberry juice?
Where is that vainglorious little shmuck, Lt. Colonel Staypuft when you need him?
McConnell shoots down calls for impeachment: Biden “is not going to be removed from office”
Why? Because we like him. M-O-U-S-E!
Hate McConnell
Anything other than puppet Biden being arrested for treason leaves me cold.
Trump calls for an investigation. Biden calls to withdraw support. Others complement him for a premature evacuation that may plausibly, but not probably, save lives in what is effectively a nation building project under Taliban rule. Pelosi et al are basking in a Katrina controversy.
It’s probably a loser idea, even if some Democrats start going for it, which I doubt, it will hold,
Sundowner is doing what the Left wants so he is a useful puppet for them, why get rid of that in their eyes?
What an absolute joke. Biden lied wow that’s a new one. On that basis every politician would be impeached.
Comparing Ukraine call to this, apples and oranges. The Ukraine call involved quid pro quo this didn’t. Sure Biden wanted to spin things to look better but how is that an impeachable offence.
Biden is a puppet. He would be replaced with a new puppet who is already selected (Harris). Biden will be blamed for the evil underway because he IS incompetent. That is why he was selected as POTUS. Calling for his impeachment is serving the needs of the shadow government. It is the plan. It is pretending all is business as usual.
It is treason that is underway, not incompetency, although there is plenty of that and it is being exploited by the hidden powers. Treason is not comfortable to think about so people want to think “incompetency.” The problem with think incompetency is that we are marks in the con game. This is treason and Biden is a tool. There are more tools ready. Look at the battlefield, not just one soldier. You see the replaceable platoon leader but he is following orders from an invisible higher grade officer who is working a large scale plan. Why did the AAF shoot down Yamamoto’s aircraft in WWII? He was not visible and it took a lot of effort to locate him. Yamamoto was a leader. Biden is a puppet. To think otherwise is to play into the plan and be part of it. The shadow always planned to take him out by having us do it for them so they have clean hands. Help them and see what happens next. It will not be better.
President Romney or Cheney as a negotiated alternative to the constitutional options. Place it next on the list after Roe v. Wade and ObamaCare.
I am completely bewildered by the sht show we are living through. Seems like that whole 3 branch thing has been pruned back to one stinking stump.
Sleepy creepy Joe also promised us the cure for cancer. What happened to that? We can’t impeach till we get that…
And people please listen to me, the above statement is sarcasm. Some people need a sign.
Trump’s call was executing a treaty and falls under Article 2 power.
Biden’s had no legal grounds and amount to a bribe.
