                        ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from 
Georgia (Ms. Greene) for 5 minutes.
  Ms. GREENE of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to provide a report 
to the United States House of Representatives that Americans support 
impeachment.
  Last week, I introduced Articles of Impeachment against five people 
who have abused the power of their positions and provided corruption 
and disservice to the American people.
  I introduced Articles of Impeachment against U.S. Attorney Matthew 
Graves at the Department of Justice. Matthew Graves refuses to 
prosecute 67 percent of the crimes in Washington, D.C., and abuses his 
office in a political pursuit of people who he deems political enemies 
while persecuting people for January 6, people who just walked through 
the Capitol.
  Matthew Graves must be impeached. He should prosecute criminals in 
Washington, D.C., that commit all kinds of crimes every single day, not 
care about the one day when people have already been arrested and are 
rotting in jail.
  Last week, I introduced Articles of Impeachment against FBI Director 
Christopher Wray. By turning the FBI into Joe Biden and Merrick 
Garland's personal police force, Chris Wray has made himself a lackey 
of the regime.

  Under Wray's watch, the FBI has intimidated, harassed, and entrapped 
American citizens that have been deemed enemies of the Biden regime. 
The FBI even raided Mar-a-Lago on August 8 of 2022 in an 
unconstitutional raid of a former President's home.
  FBI whistleblower Garret O'Boyle told congressional investigators the 
FBI created a terrorist threat tag following the Dobbs Supreme Court 
decision in 2022.
  O'Boyle confirmed that the purpose of the tag was to target pro-life 
individuals, and now Wray has weaponized the FBI against his own 
agents.
  These brave FBI whistleblowers have been stripped of their salaries 
and their security clearances simply for coming forward and bravely 
telling the truth. FBI Director Christopher Wray must be impeached.
  I introduced Articles of Impeachment against Attorney General Merrick 
Garland. Since Merrick Garland took over as Attorney General in March 
of 2021, he has completely weaponized the Department of Justice.
  The politicization of the Department of Justice has resulted in the 
persecution of the left's political enemies and a real two-tiered 
justice system in America.
  Garland has used the FBI as a personal police force for his boss, Joe 
Biden. The Department of Justice's persecution of Joe Biden's primary 
political adversary, Donald J. Trump, is antidemocratic.
  Raiding the former President's home for legally declassified 
documents is a transparent violation of justice.
  Persecuting a declared candidate for President of the United States 
is nothing short of election interference.
  Not only that, from investigating parents who protest their local 
school boards to going after pro-life activists and Catholics, Merrick 
Garland must be impeached.
  What I will tell the House of Representatives today is a Rasmussen 
poll was released just last week indicating that 53 percent of voters 
in America--Republicans, Independents, and Democrats--support the 
impeachment of Joe Biden for high crimes and misdemeanors.
  I introduced Articles of Impeachment on Joe Biden last week because 
of the national security crisis at our border.
  I also introduced Articles of Impeachment against Secretary Alejandro 
Mayorkas for failing to do his duty to secure America's border, but he 
is only doing the bidding of his boss, Joe Biden.
  At 5 p.m. yesterday, I simply released a survey on my social media 
asking: Do you support impeachment?
  Mr. Speaker, 8,600 people responded, and that was just from 5 p.m. 
last night.
  Mr. Speaker, 77 percent said, yes, they support impeachment. Only 23 
percent opposed. If anyone reads the comments on my Twitter account, 
you know for sure it is not just Republicans that follow me.
  Joe Biden has deliberately compromised our national security by 
refusing to enforce immigration laws and secure our border.
  He has allowed nearly 6 million illegals from over 170 countries to 
invade our country. He has caused an approximate 1,700 percent increase 
in border encounters in just one sector of our northern border.
  Under his reign, there have been approximately 1.4 million known got-
aways who have evaded U.S. authorities.
  He has allowed fentanyl, the number one killer of Americans between 
the ages of 18 and 45, to overwhelmingly flood into our country and 
kill over 300 Americans every single day.
  Joe Biden should be impeached.
  In my district alone, we have had an increase of 350 percent of 
fentanyl murders.
  Joe Biden must be impeached.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Members are reminded to refrain from 
engaging in personalities toward the President.
