President Joe Biden is taking a lot of heat over his threat to cut of weapons shipments to Israel if it invades Rafah.
And now, the position might lead to an impeachment vote.
On Thursday, Fox News Digital reported Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) is preparing impeachment articles against Biden due to his latest stance on Israel.
“The House has no choice but to impeach President ‘Quid pro Joe’ Biden. As Vice President, Biden was caught threatening to withhold funding and aid to Ukraine unless they fired the attorney general investigating Burisma, a company financially benefiting his son Hunter, not to mention the 10% share for ‘the big guy’ himself,” he said in a statement.
Mills added, “Now, Joe Biden is pressuring Israel, our biggest ally in the Middle East, by pausing their funding that has already been approved in the House, if they don’t stop all operations with Hamas. It’s a very clear message, ‘this for that.’”
The first term congressman pointed out “these are the same accusations made against President Trump, which resulted in his impeachment by Democrats” in 2019.
“The same must happen for Joe Biden, which is why we’re drawing up articles of impeachment now,” Mills said.
On X, Mills shared noted Democrats accused former President Donald Trump of a “quid pro quo” for withholding aid to Ukraine to pressure officials there to investigate Democrats.
Mills shared a picture the text of the impeachment charge against Biden and wrote, “The yellow highlighted area was verbatim of Rep. Nadler’s impeachment articles accusing and impeaching President Trump for ‘Quid Pro Quo’. I have submitted to House counsel and will pursue action tomorrow morning using the Dems’s own language, but Biden’s actual abuse of power. Quid Pro Joe.”

The document accuses Biden of soliciting a “‘quip pro quo’ with the foreign government of Israel by withholding precision guided weapons shipments in order to try and extract military policy changes.”
“President Biden sought to pressure the Government of Israel to take steps by conditioning official United States Government acts of significant value to Israel,” it added.
During an interview on CNN on Wednesday, Biden said, “If [Israel goes] into Rafah — they haven’t gone into Rafah yet — if they go into Rafah, I’m not supplying the weapons the weapons that have been used historically to deal with Rafah, to do deal with the cities, to deal with that problem.”
However, he said the U.S. will continue to replenish Israel’s Iron Dome system.
And he claimed an assault on Rafah is “just wrong,” and reiterated, “We’re not going to supply the weapons and artillery shells.”
In light of his new stance towards Israel, a 2019 tweet from Biden resurfaced in which said Trump “withheld Congressionally appropriated aid to Ukraine unless they granted him a political favor. It’s the definition of quid pro quo.”
“This is no joke—Trump continues to put his own personal, political interests ahead of the national interest. He must be impeached,” Biden added at the time.
