Next year the GOP will have the majority in the house. Its widely thought that they will try to impeach Biden.
Now a sitting POTUS is suppose to be impeached for committing an impeachable offense.
The constitution says these crimes are impeachable:
Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
Treason and bribery are easy but what is a high crime or misdemeanor?
How broad can this be defined? Can the GOP simply say something Biden did is impeachable, vote on it and impeach Biden? Are there any checks and balances?
Yes. And I fully expect them to. It's OK. With two years of Trump as the de-facto speaker and the extremists calling the shots in the House, it will be a clear choice in 2024 between Team Normal and Team Crazy.
yes and no.. it's a charade at this point just like the prior 6 fishing expeditions the dems did to Trump. It's a complete clown show on both sides of the isle.
Why not. Impeach Trump 1 was pure BS. Pretty much the last 2 presidents before that were just as corrupt. Obama with his weaponization of IRS and FBI, Bush2 with fake Iraq reasons. Impeach 2 was barely more. yes Trump is a turd. No he did not do enough against the rioters. I would still not have voted for the impeachment. (At least until being a narcissist and scumbag are impeachable)
Biden bribery re Hunter paybacks looks about the same as Trump corruption digging dirt and revenge in Ukraine.
Can they...of course, and the frothing at the mouth desire the Democrats showed to Impeach Trump shows that is the case.
However, I hope they realize that it means nothing any longer without a Conviction in the Senate, and that is NOT going to happen. Of course if they do impeach Biden, even if the next (R) President is a great leader and widely popular if the (D)'s hold the House they too will be impeached to "get even".
Republicans can make up a reason to impeach just like the Democrats did with Trump, I expect Republicans to get back at the Democrats at some point impeaching a Democrat President about 3 or 4 times.
Yes. Democrats have set the standard when they impeached Trump on a story the Democrats made up, Hillary spread and the FBI & media went along with.
As we now know, the investigation found Trump was not a Russian asset and it was the DNC, Hillary, the FBI and the media Democrats control colluding on a made up story in order to completely undermine the Presidency of someone who won an election fair & square.
So yes, Republicans can impeach Biden each and every day on made up stuff.
But just like all impeachments today, it will never result in actually booting a sitting President.

Not like it will pass anyway.
Pretty soon we can just impeach every president.
That's the precedent the democrats have set.
