In a campaign email signed by Vice President Harris, the campaign criticized the impeachment inquiry, initiated by "MAGA Republicans," as "beyond ridiculous" and urged supporters to donate $5, $10, or $25 to combat the "vicious lies" of Kevin McCarthy and Marjorie Taylor Greene. The email emphasized that the Republicans are launching this inquiry because they cannot challenge Biden's record. It stated, "If you're waiting for a moment to show your support for him, trust me when I say: This is it."
The email also included a statement from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on X, formerly known as Twitter, correcting Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) regarding who has been advocating for Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) to initiate the inquiry. The email described the inquiry as a theatrical performance with unconvincing actors, highlighting that former President Trump has also pressured leaders to pursue impeachment. "They're literally fighting over who gets the credit for the idea," the email stated. The campaign added, "You don't need to read between the lines to figure out why."
