    Biden Impeachment Inquiry Breaks Precedent and Lacks Credible Evidence Compared to Past Presidential Impeachments

    • This impeachment inquiry into Biden is different than past ones, with no credible evidence of wrongdoing and concerning alleged activity before he took office.

    • Past impeachments of presidents like Nixon, Clinton, and Trump concerned actions during their terms and had more evidence.

    • The impeachment process here breaks precedent - no formal vote to start, concerns pre-presidency activity, and unclear timing.

    • Pelosi didn't hold a formal impeachment inquiry vote for Trump's first impeachment until a month after announcing it.

    • Impeachment is a political process so the bar is what the House majority can bear, not a legal standard.
