WASHINGTON — The White House has stood up a war room of two dozen lawyers, legislative aides and communications staffers to lead an aggressive response to a likely Republican impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, a White House aide said.
The effort has been taking shape for months in the White House counsel’s office, as part of the response to Republican-led House investigations.
Biden's aides and allies say they are preparing to vigorously push back against an impeachment inquiry and present it as an evidence-free partisan sham that shows a GOP penchant for chaos.
“Comparing this to past impeachments isn’t apples to apples or even apples to oranges; it’s apples to elephants,” the White House aide said.
“Never in modern history has an impeachment been based on no evidence whatsoever!”

First one to say that Biden's lawyers will cry "election interference" and have the investigation ended.

I'm afraid that dog won't hunt. They kind of pissed on their own feet on this one.

Phew... now that you underlined it, it seems this impeachment will indeed be very, very powerful. I didn't think it was, but now I see it will be. Potentially exceeding power level 9000.
I say if he did something impeachable and an investigation shows it, be gone with him. But... what's the evidence for the impeachment for so far? Heck, what's the evidence for starting an inquiry even? Anything tangible?
Here's what I think will happen... an inquiry is started, subpoenas are issued, but this time around the courts quash all the subpoenas from Congress because they are not accompanied by any supporting evidence. The republicans in congress attempting this maneuver cry that they are being stonewalled by the republican judges presiding over their cases, creating another ideological cluster-# for the republicans watching all of this unfold. This won't end well, but what else is new.
Basic rule in life, don't accuse anyone of anything unless you have proof FIRST.

This isn’t Trump where nothing the Dems brought against him was tangible at all but nice try.

These rotten bastards have some nerve to say something like that when that’s exactly what they did to Trump.

So their first step is too discredit the FACTS that have been uncovered. I do believe it will not be enough as too much was purposely hidden or buried by government agencies. The people have been watching.
