What Newt’s Reading Jonathan Turley writes that Joe Biden's failure to denounce Nancy Pelosi's dead-end impeachment stunt is a missed opportunity. -Newt Say It Ain’t so, Joe: The Failure of Biden to Denounce This Impeachment Is a Missed Presidential Opportunity By Jonathan Turley JonathanTurley.org Recently, Joe Biden made the commendable decision to nominate Merrick Garland as the next US Attorney General. Against that backdrop, his refusal to condemn House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) attempt to impeach President Trump before he leaves office is a missed opportunity to unite the country. Biden has said that he is concerned about the coronavirus and rebuilding the economy, but protecting the Constitution is his chief duty. The Democrats’ “snap impeachment” proposal will gut the Constitution. Biden could have said that he would not go along with this plan, but he missed the opportunity. Great article by the Washington Times on how the Democrats, along with their allies in Silicon Valley and the media, suppressed the Hunter Biden scandal. -Newt How Silicon Valley Scions Launched 'Unprecedented Cover-Up' in Hunter Biden Case By Rowan Scarborough Washington Times Democrats, with the aid of their allies in Silicon Valley, have suppressed the Hunter Biden scandal. There is mounting evidence that Joe Biden and his son had lucrative financial ties to Chinese conglomerates and other foreign oligarchs. As former Trump adviser J.D. Gordon noted, several agencies within the federal government and several entities outside of government ignored the Hunter Biden scandal while hyping the fake Russian collusion hoax targeting President Trump. A pre-election report released by the Senate Finance Committee and the Senate Homeland Security Committee showed that Hunter Biden had received suspicious payments of millions of dollars from foreign individuals and entities. The New York Post reported on the links between Hunter Biden and a Ukrainian oligarch. In response, both Facebook and Twitter blocked the sharing of the article, claiming that its veracity had not been verified. However, hardly any journalists made an effort to verify the story. I stand with House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy in calling on Congress and Joe Biden to address actions to unify our nation and not engaging in activities such as impeachment that will further divide us. -Newt A Statement from House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy By Kevin McCarthy RepublicanLeader.House.gov In the aftermath of the unacceptable storming of the US Capitol, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and other Democrats are moving to impeach President Trump. Impeaching the 45th president just days before he leaves office will only divide America more. Joe Biden and Republicans must work together “to lower the temperature and unite the country to solve America’s challenges,” such as the coronavirus pandemic, struggling businesses and workers, and hostile adversaries abroad trying to do us harm. America must work to remain the shining city on a hill. But taking steps that will further divide us unnecessarily are not the answer. Newt's Latest Podcasts: On Sale Now:
