BISMARCK—U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) joined Larry Kudlow on Fox Business to discuss the latest news regarding Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA-23) impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden. U.S. Representatives Jim Jordan (R-OH-04), Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and James Comer (R-KY-01), Chairman of the House Oversight Committee, are leading the formal impeachment inquiry. Excerpts and full video are below.
On Representatives Comer and Jordan Addressing Senate GOP:
“Chairman Comer and Chairman Jordan were at our conference luncheon Wednesday and laid out their agenda, their plan very methodically, as they’ve been doing all along, and talked about why an inquiry is important and appropriate. […] There was not a single Republican senator who pushed against it. Some made some friendly suggestions like ‘take your time, do it right, not quickly,’ which they seem to already be doing. It’d be good if you could have a vote on the inquiry eventually, add some credibility, but they got a lot of encouragement from Republican senators. I think a lot of Republican senators were kind of put at ease by listening to Jim and Jamie talk to us in such an intelligent and productive way.”
On Bipartisan Support for the Impeachment Inquiry:
“To the degree there are some grumbling Republicans because they wish this wasn’t happening, I understand that. They somehow think it might get in the way of our anti-Joe Biden agenda or our pro-Republican economic agenda. They may be right about that, but you don’t expect the firemen to pull over to the Dairy Queen on their way to a fire. You have to deal with the crisis that’s in front of you, and you have a constitutional responsibility to do that. I think we all realize as inconvenient this impeachment inquiry might be, it is nonetheless necessary. It seemed to me to be pretty much unanimous consent in the room. At least if there were any complainers, they weren’t speaking up in the room. […] The country seems to be with us on this one. 62 percent in the last poll I saw believe the President is already guilty of some involvement in Hunter Biden’s problems, so I think the public is with us.”
