McCarthy: This Impeachment Is Not Only an Attempt to Undo the Last Election, It Is an Attempt to Influence the Next One as Well

EXCERPT:

MCCARTHY: “Today is more than the fairness of an impeachment process. It is about the integrity of our electoral process. Democrats are trying to impeach the president because they are scared they cannot defeat him at the ballot box. That’s not my words, that’s the words of my colleagues from the other side of the aisle that has offered impeachment three different times. This impeachment is not only an attempt to undo the last election, it is an attempt to influence the next one as well. This is not what Democrats promised when they entered the majority 11 months ago. In this chamber, we heard from our speaker while we all sat here, we heard what the speaker said when she talked about words of optimism and cooperation. It was said we would work together to make America stronger, more secure and more prosperous. We were told our mission was to return the power to the people. In fact, our new colleagues on the other side of the aisle were sent to Washington with a mandate to do just that. So what’s happening? Nothing like that today.”
