GOP Rep. Ken Buck calls Marjorie Taylor Greene's comments on timetable for Biden impeachment...

Rep. Ken Buck, R-Colo., a member of the hard-line conservative House Freedom Caucus, dismissed Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s comments on a timetable for an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden as "absurd" during an interview on “Inside with Jen Psaki” on Sunday.

In a video posted online last month, Greene said she won’t support any measure to fund the government before a Sept. 30 deadline until the House votes to formally begin an impeachment inquiry into the president. Greene, however, shifted her tone in a post to X, formerly known as Twitter, last weekend: “Our country deserves for Congress to vote for an impeachment inquiry for very important reasons, not a rush impeachment vote.”

Asked by Psaki to respond to Greene's shift in the timetable on a vote to begin a Biden impeachment inquiry, Buck noted that the far-right lawmaker first filed impeachment articles on Biden just after he was sworn into office, adding that "the idea that that she is now the expert on impeachment or that she is someone who should set the timing on impeachment is absurd."

“The time for impeachment is the time when there’s evidence linking President Biden — if there’s evidence linking President Biden to a high crime or misdemeanor. That doesn’t exist right now,” he said. “And it is really something that we can say, well, in February, we’re going to do this. It’s based on the facts. You go where the facts take you.”

Buck then argued that Republicans should not prioritize impeachment, citing the multiple congressional committees that are investigating Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings but have not found a “strong connection at this point” to the president.
