Tom Cotton, R-Ark., said Thursday the House of Representatives needs to impeach President Joe Biden for pledging to withhold weapons from Israel if it attacks Rafah, which sits in the Gaza Strip.
The House has no choice but to impeach Biden based on the Trump-Ukraine precedent of withholding foreign aid to help with reelection,” Sen. Cottonon Wednesday he would not supply Israel with artillery shells the nation has used to carry out similar strikes if it invaded Rafah. More than 30,000 people have reportedly died in Gaza as the Israel-Hamas war surpasses its seventh month.
The Biden administration paused a shipment of 1,800 one-ton bombs and 1,700 500-pound explosives headed to Israel as the nation seized Rafah’s border with Egypt. The president has warned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu against endangering civilians, telling him last month U.S. aid would be contingent on how Israel avoided civilian casualties.The House launched an impeachment inquiry into Biden in December to investigate alleged corruption and bribery.
