House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy isn't chomping at the bit to impeach President Joe Biden.
McCarthy, who is positioned to be voted speaker by colleagues if Republicans win back control of the House in the midterm elections this November, was noncommittal when pressed on Fox News, arguing Democrats have weaponized impeachment in a way he does not want to replicate.
"We believe in the rule of law." he added."We’re not going to pick and choose just because somebody has power. We’re going to uphold the law. At any time, if someone breaks the law and the ramification becomes impeachment, we would move towards that, but we’re not going to use it for political purposes."House Democrats led two successful impeachment efforts against former President Donald Trump. One involved the president's conduct with Ukraine.
