- A House Freedom Caucus member said there's no evidence linking Biden to a high crime.
- Appearing on MSNBC on Sunday, Rep. Ken Buck also railed against Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
- He said the idea that she's "the expert on impeachment" is "absurd."
A far-right House Freedom Caucus member said on Sunday that any evidence linking President Joe Biden to any high crime or misdemeanor "doesn't exist right now" as some Republicans push to impeach him.
Appearing on MSNBC's "Inside with Jen Psaki," Republican Rep. Ken Buck was asked about the constant push from political bomb-thrower Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene to impeach the president. Buck noted the "time for impeachment is the time when there's evidence linking President Biden to a high crime or misdemeanor."
"That doesn't exist right now," he said.
Buck said that Greene previously attempted to impeach Biden "before he was sworn into office more than two and a half years ago."
"The idea that she is now the expert on impeachment or that she is someone who should set the timing on impeachment is absurd," Buck said.
Greene has been pushing for an impeachment inquiry to begin for weeks, and on Monday, she said she wants the GOP to launch it as soon as this week.
Over the last 2 and a half years, Greene has filed articles of impeachment against Biden on six separate occasions over a conspiracy regarding him and Ukrainian officials, his handling of border security, the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan, and more. None of the attempts has ever been brought up for a formal vote on the House floor, other than to refer it to a committee.
In response to Buck's comments, Greene said it seemed like the Freedom Caucus member was pining for a job from the Democratic president.
"When is Ken Buck going to announce he's a Democrat? The amount of shilling for Joe Biden is astounding," she wrote on her government-verified Twitter account.
The publicized back-and-forth between Buck and Greene comes several months after the Freedom Caucus booted Greene from their ranks days after she called fellow caucus member Rep. Lauren Boebert a "bitch" on the House floor.
