Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) filed one article of impeachment against President Joe Biden on Friday after the president decided to withhold weapons delivery to Israel.
Mills said on Thursday he was preparing the articles of impeachment, arguing that Biden’s decision to delay military aid, including 2,000-pound bombs, is similar to the Democrats’ first impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump, in which he withheld aid to Ukraine in exchange for announcing an investigation into the Biden family.
“As a member of the House of Representatives, it is my constitutional duty to present articles of impeachment against Joe Biden for his most recent abuse of power,” Mills said in a statement to the Washington Examiner.
The article of impeachment, obtained by the Washington Examiner, said that using the powers of his high office, Biden “solicited a ‘quid pro quo’ with the foreign government of Israel by withholding precision guided weapons shipments in order to try and extract military policy changes.”
“This egregious action not only compromised the credibility of the United States but also undermined the interests of our longstanding ally, Israel,” Mills said. “Therefore, President Biden’s conduct warrants impeachment, trial, removal from office, and disqualification from holding any future office under the United States.”
