Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) did something counterintuitive Wednesday during a House committee hearing: He asked the committees leader, Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), to second a motion to impeach President Joe Biden .
Although Moskowitz seemed to hand Republicans what they want a vote to start the impeachment process against Biden on a silver platter, Comer basically responded with crickets.
But that was Moskowitzs point, as he explained to Tony Bobulinski, a former business partner of the presidents son and a key witness for the GOP .
If these hearings were a success, right, if what weve been doing for the last 15 months had convinced the American people that Joe Biden committed a high crime and misdemeanor, you can be damn sure they would have called the vote by now, right? Moskowitz said, suggesting that Republicans lack evidence in their impeachment inquiry.
In response, Bobulinski pointed to recent data that shows that the American people are well aware of the Bidens corruption.

Under questioning, Bobulinski said he thought that Biden was guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors that would warrant impeachment, but didnt cite a specific high crime or misdemeanor in his testimony.
Moskowitz stressed that since Comer and his House oversight committee have spent months investigating the Biden family with no impeachment, they must lack proof.
They havent proven he committed a high crime and misdemeanor. Otherwise, we would call for impeachment, said Moskowitz, who had showed up to the hearing wearing a mask of Russian leader Vladimir Putin .

Moskowitz then decided to troll Comer by asking for him to support a motion to impeach Biden.
I just think we should do it today, Moskowitz said . Lets just call for it. Ill make the motion, Mr. Chairman. I want to help you out. You can second it, right? Make the motion to impeach President Biden. Go ahead. Its your turn. You second it.
Comer stayed silent.
No? Nothing? OK, we got nothing. Moskowitz said mockingly.
