I think even the most ardent haters of President Biden are now forced to acknowledge the impeachment inquiry in to his alleged crimes, brides, and whatever other sorted things he was accused of doing has been a bust. Were that not the case it would be advancing to a vote on articles of impeachment in the House.
Swalwell pronounces ‘time of death’ for GOP’s Biden impeachment push

But from a Repub perspective all is not lost. The list of unproven allegations remain fertile in the minds of MAGAist's. Because once planted, the seeds of disinformation flourish inside the right wing echo chamber. They are sustained not by facts or evidence but rather by belief. And we can be sure the endless droning from RWM has had an affect on more casual observers as well. Those who only pay attention enough to know baseless assertions have been made, not that they are baseless. No matter. The investigation has achieved its end. Namely, to create the illusion of impropriety.
Now it is time to put the matter behind them for Repubs have moved on to the next sham. Holding AG Garland in contempt despite his compliance with a request by House Repubs to turn over the transcript of SC Hur's interview with Joe.

The House Judiciary Committee moved forward on holding Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt Thursday, but it won't be enough to satisfy hardliners.

This was part of Hur's investigation in to Joe's possession of classified docs. An issue Repubs would prefer to keep alive in the public's consciousness seeing as.......well.......perhaps one day......His Orangeness will go on trial for concealing possession of classified docs and refusing to comply with a subpoena for their return. Though one can fairly say Trump appointee Aileen Cannon is dutifully trying to delay the trial with all the duplicity she can muster.
Does it matter that this kind of contempt finding is unprecedented? No. It's an election year and the POT nominee for prez is a criminal defendant in 4 jurisdictions. Distractions must be created. False equivalences must be made. Voters must be made to feel "they all do it" even though the facts say otherwise. So...........
