House Republicans will be remembered by history for trampling on the Constitution for political gain rather than working to solve the serious challenges at our border, DHS spokesperson Mia Ehrenberg, via statement.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer called the impeachment "a new low for House Republicans.".

This sham impeachment effort is another embarrassment for House Republicans, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, via statement.

The one and only reason for this impeachment is for Speaker Johnson to further appease Donald Trump, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, via statement.

President Biden also condemned the impeachment.

History will not look kindly on House Republicans for their blatant act of unconstitutional partisanship that has targeted an honorable public servant in order to play petty political games, President Joe Biden, via statement

Biden Attacks Trump Supporters, Claims They're the Kind of People ‘You'd Like to Smack in the Ass’

During a recent campaign event in Scranton, Pennsylvania, President Joe Biden launched a sharp attack on supporters of Republican nominee Donald Trump, characterising them as the kind of individuals "you'd like to smack in the ass." His remarks came as he criticised Trump’s proposed tax cuts for high earners, framing them as harmful to working-class Americans. Biden's comments aimed to highlight what he perceives as the detrimental effects of Trump’s policies, which he argues primarily benefit the wealthy. This outburst, reflecting Biden's escalating rhetoric against Trump and his supporters, underscores the growing tensions as the November 5 election approaches. The President's comments sparked discussions about the deepening divide in American politics, with both candidates intensifying their messaging in the lead-up to the election. #BidenVsTrump #TrumpSupporters #Election2024 #PoliticalRhetoric #ScrantonSpeech #TaxCuts #WorkingClass #DivisivePolitics #Biden2024 #CampaignTrail #AmericanPolitics #VoterResponse #Unity #Democrats #Republicans
