GOP senator calls for Biden’s impeachment over holdup on arms shipments to Israel

Republican Senator Tom Cotton from Arkansas calls on X for the impeachment of US President Joe Biden over withholding arms from Israel “to help with reelection.”
He points to the Democrat-led impeachment of former president Donald Trump in 2019, in which Trump is accused of withholding aid to Ukraine to pressure Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to cooperate with his campaign against Biden.
“Only with Biden, it’s true,” writes Cotton.
The House has no choice but to impeach Biden based on the Trump-Ukraine precedent of withholding foreign aid to help with reelection. Only with Biden, it’s true.
