Biden Impeachment Push Gets a Big Boost
Plus: Aliens and UFOs get their big day on Capitol Hill.
Good afternoon, Press Pass readers. We’re coming up to the end of the last week of business in Congress before a long recess. During the break, I’ll be hitting the campaign trail for reporting beyond Washington. Make sure to sign up for Bulwark+ so you don’t miss any exclusive dispatches from around the country.
Today’s Press Pass looks at the somewhat quixotic right-wing effort to impeach President Joe Biden—which gained some momentum this week after Kevin McCarthy floated an official inquiry. We’ll also take a look at yesterday’s blockbuster hearing on UFOs, during which one witness in particular made a number of questionable claims.

His new openness to the cause represents a major step forward for House GOP advocates of the retaliatory mission to punish Joe Biden and the Democrats on behalf of former President Donald Trump.
