_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Impeaching Joseph R. Biden, President of the United States, for high
crimes and misdemeanors.
Resolved, That Joseph R. Biden, President of the United States, is
impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and that the following
articles of impeachment be exhibited to the United States Senate:
Articles of impeachment exhibited by the House of Representatives
of the United States of America in the name of itself and of the people
of the United States of America, against Joseph R. Biden, President of
the United States of America, in maintenance and support of its
impeachment against him for high crimes and misdemeanors.
article i
In his conduct of the office of President of the United States,
Joseph R. Biden violated his constitutional oath to faithfully execute
the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his
ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United
States, in that:
President Biden failed to secure the southern border by halting
construction of a barrier along the U.S.-Mexico border, leaving Border
Patrol agents to fend for themselves in the effort to secure our
borders.
President Biden attempted to end the Migrant Protection Protocol
policies that required migrants seeking asylum to wait outside of the
United States.
President Biden abrogated the responsibilities of Federal border
enforcement to private shelters, religious organizations, and local
officials with respect to testing incoming migrants for COVID-19.
President Biden willfully released thousands of migrants who
entered the United States illegally without a date to appear in court
for immigration.
President Biden knowingly released migrants having tested positive
for COVID-19 from Border Patrol custody and into the United States, and
knowingly transported COVID-19 positive migrants throughout the United
States.
Wherefore President Biden, by such conduct, thus warrants
impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to
hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United
States.
article ii
In his conduct of the office of President of the United States,
Joseph R. Biden violated his constitutional oath faithfully to execute
the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his
ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United
States, in that:
President Biden has violated the constitutional duties of the
office of President of the United States by not faithfully executing
the law.
President Biden has extended the moratorium on evictions despite
publicly acknowledging it would ``not pass constitutional muster''.
President Biden has violated the separation of powers by extending
the moratorium despite the clear warning from the U.S. Supreme Court.
President Biden has violated the separation of powers by extending
the moratorium with no legislative directive from the U.S. Congress.
Wherefore President Biden, by such conduct, thus warrants
impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to
hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United
States.
article iii
In his conduct of the office of President of the United States,
Joseph R. Biden violated his constitutional oath faithfully to execute
the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his
ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United
States, in that:
President Biden has failed to act responsibly as Commander in Chief
with regard to the withdrawal of United States forces from Afghanistan.
President Biden has abandoned thousands of Americans with the
removal of military personnel before American civilians were evacuated,
willfully putting their lives at risk.
President Biden has aided and abetted the enemy by failing to
secure or destroy American-donated military equipment as Taliban forces
overtook territory in Afghanistan, leaving billions of dollars' worth
of military hardware in the hands of enemy soldiers.
President Biden has executed a withdrawal policy that leaves
Afghanistan in the hands of a terror-supporting regime and weakens
America's ability to prosecute the Global War on Terror.
Wherefore President Biden, by such conduct, thus warrants
impeachment and trial, removal from office, and disqualification to
hold and enjoy any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United
States.
