This isn't the first time McCarthy has tried to keep his promise to Trump, one that the two of them concocted back in February 2020. Their strategy was to claim that the impeachment was a "hoax " and therefore not a legitiment cause of action.
House Res. 1131 was introduced on May 18, 2022 by Markwayne Mullins (R-OK) and co-sponsored by the usual suspects, to expunge the January 13,1021 impeachment of Donald Trump.

The last reported action on that Resolution was the same day it was introduced. It went nowhere.
So, here we go again . . . without precedent and certainly no constitutional support, McCarthy will try one more time to keep the promise he made to Trump back in February 2020.
As to be expected, in addition to the "hoax" claim, Trump also wants to link his impeachments to his failure to be re-elected so, therefore, once expunged, he should be re-instated.
For real. That the logic McCarthy will be using in Trump's latest attempt to de-legitimize the Biden Administration.
Now you know the rest of the story.
