“Removing US President Joe Biden from power will be an easy job,” said Rep. Marjorie Taylor Green of the Republican Party in the House of Representatives (the lower house of parliament in Washington), which broadcast former head of state Donald Trump.
According to the legislator from the state of Georgia, if her party wins the elections for deputies in the House and the Senate (the upper house), the parliamentary group members will start a procedure to remove Biden from power. In her words, Biden should be removed because of the falsification of the presidential election on November 3, 2020, the failure of the economy, the withdrawal of the American military from Afghanistan, and the return of the Taliban to power, etc.
Taylor-Green also said that Interior Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Attorney General, and Justice Secretary Merrick Garland would be impeached. However, she did not reveal the reasons for requesting that the two be removed from power.
Donald Trump said yesterday that if the Republicans win the parliamentary elections, they will start impeachment proceedings against the current head of state.
Today in the USA elect the 435 legislators in the House of Representatives and 35 of the 100 senators.
The polls give the Republicans a lead of 225 seats in the lower house and 53 in the upper house.
The impeachment process of the US president is similar to a trial. The initiators bring their accusations to the acting head of state in the House of Representatives. If at least 2/3 of the 453 parliamentarians confirm the charges, they go to the Senate.
The deputies of the upper house play the role of last resort and decide the political fate of the owner of the White House. The votes of at least 67 of the 100 senators are needed to remove the head of state.
So far, no president has left office as a result of a parliamentary vote. Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton were acquitted by the Senate (in 1868 and 1998, respectively). Richard Nixon resigned before the House of Representatives voted to impeach him (in 1974).
