Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene vowed to keep pressuring House GOP leaders to impeach President Biden and top members of his team.

Ms. Greene said Republicans should keep their promise to hold the Biden administration accountable. Specifically, she wants to see votes to impeach Mr. Biden, Attorney General Merrick Garland, FBI Director Christopher A. Wray and U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Matthew Graves.

Voters “think that Republicans are weak and never do anything, never hold anyone accountable,” the Georgia Republican told The Washington Times. “There’s a lot the speaker could be doing but he’s just not doing, and it’s really a shame.”



Ms. Greene led an effort to oust Mr. Johnson as speaker but he was saved by House Democrats voting to table her motion. She could try again and there’s no guarantee Democrats would help Mr. Johnson next time.

Still, all those impeachment votes are unlikely.

House Republicans’ impeachment inquiry into Mr. Biden’s connection to his family’s hugely profitable foreign business deals has fizzled out, and a vote on that appears unlikely before the election.

Party leaders have not talked about impeaching the Justice Department officials Ms. Greene wants to target.

As of now, the only oversight-related vote GOP leaders have planned is a resolution holding Mr. Garland in contempt of Congress for declining to turn over audio from Mr. Biden’s interview with a special counsel investigating his mishandling of classified documents.

House Republicans want to vote on the contempt resolution when the chamber returns in June, but that depends on the whip count showing enough GOP support. The timing aligns with Mr. Garland’s scheduled June 4 appearance before the House Judiciary Committee.

Ms. Greene said if GOP leaders decline to bring articles of impeachment against Mr. Biden or top Justice officials up for a vote, she is considering doing so herself.

Impeachment resolutions are privileged under House rules, meaning any member can trigger a floor vote. Leadership can counter the move with a motion to table the measure or refer it to committee.

“I am considering [forcing a vote] because we’ve done an incredible investigation on the Oversight committee. And the American people know it,” Ms. Greene said. “They’re not confused over what to do. It’s these people I work with in here.”
