Rep. Cory Mills, R-Fla., formally filed articles of impeachment against President Biden on Friday over his recent comments about withholding offensive weapons aid to Israel, drawing parallels to House Democrats' first impeachment of former President Donald Trump, Report informs, citing Fox News.
The first-term House Republican said that it was his constitutional duty to do so.
His legislative text accuses Biden of abuse of power and charges that he tried to force Israel into changing its own defense policies by leveraging lethal aid.
"In violation of his oath to faithfully execute the office of President and to uphold the Constitution, President Biden abused the powers of his office by soliciting a 'quid pro quo' with Israel while leveraging vital military aid for policy changes. This egregious action not only compromised the credibility of the United States but also undermined the interests of our longstanding ally, Israel.
