'Oh My God, Really??': John Fetterman's Mocking Response To Impeachment Inquiry Is All Of Us

John Fetterman had a mock concerned response to the news that Speaker McCarthy would launch an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden.

Pennsylvania Democratic Senator John Fetterman had a mock concerned response to the news that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy would launch an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden.

McCarthy's move is seen as an attempt to placate far-right lawmakers who have threatened to remove McCarthy from his leadership position if he does not support their calls for significant spending cuts, which could result in a government shutdown by the end of the month.


Fetterman, when asked about McCarthy's announcement, responded with a burst of laughter and disbelief:

"Oh my God really? Oh my gosh, you know, oh it's devastating. OOOoOoOOoOoOOOOh don't do it, please don't do it. Oh no, oh no!"

You can see the video of Fetterman's response below.

Fetterman had previously told a group of reporters that Republicans should proceed with impeachment hearings if they are "gonna keep threatening it."

He added that an impeachment inquiry "would just be like a big circlejerk on the fringe right" and that Republicans had a "fetish for Hunter Biden," the President's son, who this summer pled not guilty to tax charges for filing two years of his tax returns late and expects a grand jury to return an indictment on a gun charge by September 29.

Many praised Fetterman's response and shared their own criticisms.


McCarthy's decision to unilaterally declare the impeachment investigation, without a formal vote in the House, intertwines Republican efforts to scrutinize Biden with the ongoing funding dispute in Congress.

Under McCarthy's plan, three House committees—Oversight, Judiciary, and Ways and Means—will be tasked with conducting the impeachment inquiry into Biden and his family.

Republicans have been searching for evidence of financial misconduct or corruption by the president but have not yet produced concrete proof to support these claims. Nevertheless, they argue that they have gathered sufficient information to justify further investigation.

The announcement by Speaker McCarthy is seen as potentially paving the way for House investigators to issue subpoenas for bank records related to Biden and his family members as part of the impeachment inquiry, adding further tension to the ongoing budget and funding battles in Congress.

HGTV Stars Respond To Backlash From Christian Fans For Casting Same-Sex Couple In Their New Series

Back in 2016, home renovation and lifestyle power couple Joanna and Chip Gaines faced accusations of anti-LGBTQ+ bigotry. The criticism stemmed from their attendance at a Waco, Texas church that preached against LGBTQ+ equality and basic human rights.

At the time, the couple owned and operated Magnolia Homes, a remodeling and design business in Waco, Texas, and their HGTV program Fixer Upper was a hit. After the show ended in 2018, the couple created their own Magnolia Network in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery in 2020 to create original content and air other home and lifestyle programs.

The administration of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump is currently engaged in a face-off with California over occupying forces sent by Trump to Los Angeles, which is about 50 miles from Anaheim where Disneyland is located, making Vance's choice even more questionable.

Joe Biden Calls Out 'Liar' Trump Over His Claims About Biden's Use Of Autopen For Pardons

Speaking to The New York Times, former President Joe Biden called President Donald Trump a "liar" over claims that Biden's pardons are "void" because they were done by autopen, a conspiracy theory heavily promoted by Republicans who've already suggested many times that Biden was not mentally fit while in office.

In the final hours of his presidency, Biden issued a series of preemptive pardons, including ones for his relatives, all members of the House committee that investigated the January 6 attack—such as former Congresswoman Liz Cheney—and several of Trump’s most prominent adversaries, including General Mark Milley and Dr. Anthony Fauci.
