CNN headline today:

"McCarthy starts to plot Biden impeachment strategy while GOP skeptics remain."

What the GROUNDS for impeachment might be is addressed in paragraph nine. CNN thus buries the lede of a more striking story: a vibes-based approach, where you establish first the feeling, "we wanna impeach," relegating the small matter of "impeachment for what?" to later stages.

That's news! Instead CNN frames for us another strategy story.

@jayrosen_nyu McCarthy has no agenda for the House. And his only hope of keeping the lights on through this budget cycle is to distract his idiot caucus with dog-and-pony "impeachment" circus.
