“You don’t even have to be convicted of a crime to lose your job in this republic..Impeachment is not about punishment. It's about cleansing the office. It's about restoring honor & integrity to the office”– @LindseyGrahamSC Jan 1999. #ImpeachDonaldTrump

“it’s a misreading of the Constitution for any member to assert that for a member to vote for an article of impeachment means that that member must be convinced that the President should be removed from office. The Constitution doesn't say that.” – Rep Barbara Jordan, 7/25/1974

“The division between two branches of the Legislature- the House & Senate, assigning to the one the right to accuse & to the other the right to judge, the Framers ..were very astute. They did not make the accusers & the judges the same person.”– Rep Barbara Jordan, 7/25/1974

“what Trump did was un-American. After trying to capitalize on the Russian hacks, [he] questioned U.S. intelligence & publicly sided with Putin in denying the Russian leader’s role. Trump betrayed us, and he will do it again if we let him.”
