DALTON, Ga. — On Wednesday afternoon, Republican U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene voted against the impeachment of President Donald Trump.

Just a few hours later, Greene announced on Twitter that on Jan. 21 she will introduce articles of impeachment to remove President-elect Joe Biden from office for “abuse of power.”

Biden is to be inaugurated on Jan. 20.

“I would like to announce on behalf of the American people we have to make sure that our leaders are held accountable,” Greene said during an appearance on Newsmax. “We cannot have a president of the United States that is willing to abuse the power of the office of the presidency and be easily bought off by foreign governments.”
 
Greene, in her first year in Congress, represents the 14th Congressional District, which includes Whitfield and Murray counties.
