Media giant Glenn Beck is now calling for the impeachment of President Barack Obama as well as some of the biggest names in the Republican Party for “arming known terrorists.”
Beck is reacting to a White House announcement Monday that waives part of the Arms Export Control Act to allow “non-lethal assistance” to rebels in Syria.
“I called today for the very first time in my career … I personally am calling to impeach the president of the United States. This is impeachable. He is arming known terrorists, and people like John McCain should be impeached as well,” Beck said on his broadcast this week.
“We know some of the arms are going to fall into the hands of al-Qaida. And how do we know that? Because the president just had to waive the law saying that we are going to arm known terrorists,” Beck said. “If that’s not an impeachable offense, for Lindsey Graham, for John McCain, for John Boehner, for the president of the United States, I don’t know what an impeachable offense is.”
“This president, John McCain, Lindsey Graham, and John Boehner, and anyone else who stands for giving aid and comfort, military support to al-Qaida in Syria, should be impeached,” Beck continued. “Notice there’s Republicans and Democrats, so it’s clearly not about party.”
“We did not get into bed with Hitler to defeat Japan. We did not do it,” Beck added. “It’s the height of insanity. But I also believe it is impeachable. I believe it is treason.”
Beck noted a disturbing irony when it comes to Obama’s treatment of U.S. citizens compared to terrorists.
“He’s taking guns away from the people while giving guns to al-Qaida,” Beck said. “What else do you need for impeachment?”
