Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley and House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer have both alleged without evidence that Joe Biden was involved in a bribery scheme when he was vice president. So far, no proof has been offered. These allegations have been circling for a while, and controversial Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is suggesting impeachment of the president over these unsubstantiated claims.

Seriously, just put up or shut the fuck up. Then Sen. Ron Johnson weighed in on Fox News to prove what an ethically bankrupt guy he is.

"Quickly, before I let you go, Senator, will your colleagues make those underlying documents publicly available?" the Fox News host asked.

"We know the whistleblower will remain protected, but what about the allegations?" she added. "Will the American people see them?"

"Well, we'll have to see what's in them," Johnson admitted. "You know, see whether they're credible allegations, whether or not they connect to other wrongdoing by the Biden family."

"And if they turn out to not be credible, sir, will your colleagues acknowledge that, you think?" the Fox pundit asked. "Only got a couple seconds left."

"That'll be up to them," Johnson said. "They're the ones that'll get the documents."

I have questions! Who is "them," and is he admitting they might not acknowledge if they fucked up by falsely accusing Biden of crimes? It sure sounds that way. Additionally, he admitted that he doesn't know what's in them. The party of personal responsibility, you guys.

Do better, GOP.
