Impeachment Round Two

Submitted by ub on

US Congress levels charges against individual one, a high government official.

Impeachment does not in itself remove the official definitively from office; it is similar to an indictment in criminal law, and thus it is essentially the statement of charges against the official.

If POTUS is impeached, he must then face the possibility of conviction on the charges by a US Senate vote, which is separate from the impeachment but flows from it, and a judgment that convicts the official on the articles of impeachment entails the official's definitive removal from office.

On the second day of open testimony in the impeachment inquiry, the House Intelligence Committee heard from former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch.

The real issue most Americans should be considered is do we want to just get over it? Or do #WeThePeople want to accept this GOP action that yes there was law-breaking but it came from Russia so it is not really their fault?
