Fox News contributor Jason Chaffetz told “America Reports” Friday that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., need to “get organized.” Chaffetz said more Republicans need to “unify” and take a position on the Hunter Biden investigation and whether to impeach President Biden over it. The former congressman also criticized President Biden for denying knowledge on Hunter Biden’s business deal, calling it a “total lie.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
JASON CHAFFETZ: That’s a total fabrication \u2013 what the White House has said every single step of the way has been a complete and total lie. And you know what? Congress needs to get some guts. They need to get organized. I want to see Mitch McConnell standing there with Speaker McCarthy unified and get all Republicans. Why do they just leave it off to the side for a handful of Republicans to express frustration? I don’t want to see a single other thing from this speaker and the minority leader until they actually unify and take a position and demand that these things happen. When that happens, things happen in Washington, D.C. But right now, nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Most corrupt family to ever live in the White House! Impeach!” Rep. Jim Banks, R-Ind., wrote on Twitter, while Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., wrote, “Read and understand just how deep the corruption goes. Biden should be thrown out of office. Impeach!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Former Arizona gubernatorial candidate and conservative firebrand Kari Lake suggested the president was guilty of “extortion” and “treason” in addition to bribery, and claimed former President Donald Trump was impeached for Biden’s “crimes.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
