'Trump 2024, baby!' GOP congressman blurts out motive for Biden inquiry

A Republican congressman was caught on camera giving away his real goal at the impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.

Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX), one of Donald Trump's strongest allies in the U.S. House, was asked Tuesday on Capitol Hill what he hopes to gain from the inquiry into the president and his family's business dealings, and video obtained by Rolling Stone shows him appearing to admit it's political theater.

“All I can say is: Donald J. Trump 2024, baby!” Nehls replied.

Rolling Stone contacted Nehls, who suggested Trump as a potential House speaker after Kevin McCarthy was ousted, for comment, and he was a bit more reserved than he was in the video.

Republicans, “Will follow the rule of law and go where the facts lead us," he said.
