WASHINGTON Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is losing patience with House leadership over its refusal to join her quest to impeach President Joe Biden as a rival Republican firebrand looks to steal her thunder.

The House will likely vote Thursday on a presidential impeachment resolution except its by Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) rather than Greene, who initially introduced articles of impeachment against Biden way back in January. Boebert used a special procedure to force the House to take up her resolution against the apparent wishes of House GOP leadership.

The speaker normally dictates when and what the House votes on, and Republican leaders urged their rank-and-file during a conference meeting on Wednesday to vote against Boeberts resolution. They argued its too soon for impeachment a sentiment many Republicans seemed to share.

Greene spoke out at the meeting in favor of Boeberts resolution even though it wasnt her own.

I made it clear in the conference to everyone in the conference and I dont have a problem addressing the conference. Lauren Boebert never addressed the conference. But I made it clear to the conference that I have introduced articles of impeachment literally since Joe Biden s first day in office on this Ukraine issue, Greene told reporters on Wednesday.

Greene introduced a resolution in January to impeach Biden for enabling bribery when he was vice president by allowing his son to influence the domestic policy of a foreign nation, namely Ukraine, essentially recycling the discredited allegation at the heart of former President Donald Trump s 2019 impeachment. Last month, she introduced another impeachment resolution, this one faulting Biden for allegedly failing to secure the southern border.

Boeberts impeachment proposal, which she introduced on the House floor Tuesday evening, also relates to border security, a favorite topic of Republican attacks against Biden. Greene complained to reporters on Wednesday that Boebert refused to co-sponsor her immigration-related impeachment resolution last month.

She basically copied my articles and then just introduced them and then changed them to a privileged resolution, Greene said.

Boebert denied being a copycat.

Im not in middle school. This isnt a copycat game, she told HuffPost. Copying her would be her going and demanding a vote on the floor, and then me going and doing it right after.

Greenes frustration is rooted not only in Boeberts move to steal her thunder, but also in the GOP conferences general lack of enthusiasm for impeachment. Many Republicans seem to agree with leadership that its too soon to try to throw Biden out of office.

Lets see what the facts look like a month from now, or two months, said Rep. Glenn Grothman (R-Wis.), who thinks Biden is the worst president in U.S. history. There are all sorts of investigations going on right now.

On Wednesday, Greene complained that shes paid all her campaign dues to the National Republican Congressional Committee, voted for the shit sandwich debt ceiling bill and got the votes for McCarthy to become speaker without getting enough in return. Her own impeachment resolutions havent seen any action, such as a markup in the House Judiciary Committee.

I cant have them even start the process on Judiciary for impeachment when everybody knows the president is a criminal and took a $5 million bribe? Greene said, referring to an unverified tip the FBI received in 2020 regarding Biden and Ukraine.
