The Constitution gives Congress the power of impeachment for “Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”

Former president Donald Trump was impeached twice while president. First, he was impeached in 2019 for attempting to bribe Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate President Biden’s son Hunter in exchange for $400 million in congressionally approved military aid.

Trump was impeached a second time for his efforts to undermine the democratic process and illegally overturn the 2020 presidential election results. His efforts culminated in the Jan. 6 riot at the nation’s Capitol, an attack spurred on by Trump in a clear act of treason—and it was witnessed by the entire nation.

So, attempted bribery and treason, nearly an impeachment trifecta.

Currently, Donald Trump faces 13 charges in the Georgia election interference case, four charges in the federal Jan. 6 election case, 40 charges in the classified documents case, and 34 charges in the falsifying business records case.

That’s 44 federal charges and 47 state charges, all of which are felonies.

As a result, you would assume that any honest, well-informed politician who loves his country and wants to keep it “Great” would have deposited Donald Trump on the political refuse heap long ago.

But no. Instead, the clueless Republican leadership has decided to seek REVENGE!

Avoiding a government shutdown which would disrupt the lives of millions of people; repairing the country’s infrastructure; solving an

immigration situation which Republicans constantly claim is catastrophic—all are worthwhile endeavors.

Yet, apparently, these problems are much too complicated for Congressional Republicans to tackle and help solve. On the other hand, impeachment inquiries are easy.

Well, that is unless there are no grounds for impeachment, which is clearly the case where Republicans’ impeachment inquiry of President Biden is concerned.

Republicans have somehow conjured up a scheme that they can use President Biden’s son Hunter as a key to unlock an impeachment of the President.

Yet, so far, media reports describing the impeachment inquiry launched by the Republican-controlled House of Representatives have been filled with phrases such as “alleged without presenting any evidence to support claims” “GOP committee members did not present evidence” “not enough evidence to support impeachment at this time.”

My advice for Congressional Republicans who are hell-bent on impeaching President Biden is to call your dogs off Hunter Biden and focus your impeachment inquiry on Commander, the Bidens’ 2-year-old German shepherd.

Obviously, Hunter Biden has had his share of personal troubles. But President Biden, like most parents, is not directly responsible or tied to Hunter’s issues.

Commander, on the other hand, is displaying troublesome behavior for which Biden must be held accountable. In fact, compared to Commander, Cujo is a mere pussycat.

If Republicans want actual evidence in place of their current pie-in-the- sky fantasy to support their impeachment charges, there is plenty available when it comes to Commander. Disreputable things are happening in the White House, and the dog’s paw prints are all over them.

For example, you may have read in the news that Commander bit a US Secret Service agent at the White House two weeks ago, bringing his total to 11 such incidents in the past year!

White House sources have claimed that Commander is aggressive towards members of the president’s security detail because of their ‘unfriendly expressions.’

Countering that claim, White House personnel who have been bitten by Commander declare that the dog is “a significant hazard.” Sounds like a high crime or misdemeanor just waiting to happen, don’t you think?

What makes these recent dog-biting reports most intriguing is that a pattern appears to be forming. That is because this is not the first Biden dog with a biting problem.

You may recall that Major, another German shepherd, had to be moved from the White House in 2021 after “a couple of biting incidents.” And now, the latest report coming out of the White House is that Commander has suddenly ‘disappeared’ too.

Just what exactly is going on here? Why does President Biden encourage, nay, perhaps train his dogs to attack Secret Service agents? What is it that he does not want them to see? What is he hiding?

Even more suspicious is why Biden’s dogs mysteriously vanish. Why are they whisked away in the dark of night to some secret doghouse location?

It is obvious to me, and to most of you now that I’ve pointed it out, that Republicans in Congress are barking up the wrong tree in their impeachment inquiry.

Instead of working like dogs to dig up evidence which does not exist, Republicans should call off the dogs and drop this whole dog and pony show about Hunter Biden.

House Republicans can do all the hotdogging they want and put on a big spectacle in their inquiry. But everyone knows by now that their bark is worse than their bite because they have no evidence.

Once their impeachment case completely falls apart, they will all be in the political doghouse because, in the dog-eat-dog world of politics, you must present your strongest case to achieve a goal.

And in this case, the key to President Biden’s impeachment is Commander, not Hunter.
