The Hill reports:
House Republicans on Wednesday teed off on one of their own colleagues, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), over her stunning move to force a vote this week to impeach President Biden.
While no fans of the president, Boebert’s GOP critics said her move to stage an impeachment vote this week is wildly premature, harming the Republicans’ ongoing efforts to investigate the Biden family’s business dealings while undermining potential impeachment efforts in the future.
McCarthy had urged Boebert to address the conference before making a privileged motion to bring her impeachment resolution to the floor, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) told The Hill. Boebert told McCarthy “she would think about doing it,” according to Greene, but went ahead with the privileged motion anyway.

Republicans need to stick together and get this man out office for his dereliction of duty on the Southern Border. https://t.co/buMcB8lkDT

Rep. Lauren Boebert claims that she is forcing a House vote on impeaching President Biden because she is “directed and led” by “the spirit of God” in everything she does: “We are doing what is right, what is righteous. History will prove that.” pic.twitter.com/EBoKqYEFif

House GOP members not happy with Lauren Boebert for forcing a vote to impeach Joe Biden. In conference, Speaker McCarty argued against it, per attendees. Many are opposed. And even a backer, MTG, critcized Boebert for copying her impeachment resolution, calling her a “copy cat”
