As usual, Speculum doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.
Who wants to wager that he states this lie again even after I prove him wrong...AGAIN?
Impeachment

What Is Impeachment?
Impeachment, as authorized by Article II, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution, is the formal process that allows Congress to bring charges of "Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors" against high-ranking civil officers, such as the president.1
The power to impeach serves as the first step in an important check on the executive and judicial branches of government regarding violations of law and abuses of power. When impeached by the House of Representatives, the official goes on trial and, if convicted by the Senate, is removed from office.2
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Impeachment, as defined in Article II, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution, is the formal process by which Congress brings charges against high-ranking civil officers, such as the president, in a bid to remove them from office.1
Only the U.S. House of Representatives has the power to impeach a federal official, and only the Senate can convict and remove the impeached official.
Only three U.S. presidents have been impeached by the House—Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton, and Donald Trump—and all were acquitted by the Senate.
How Impeachment Works
Article II, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution says:
The President, Vice President and all Civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
Importantly, impeachment is not the same as removal or conviction, though many people think that is the case. Impeachment is a charging process, similar to an indictment in a criminal proceeding.
Impeachment at the federal level is rare; removal even more so. Impeachment proceedings have been initiated by the House of Representatives more than 60 times since the adoption of the U.S. Constitution. Just 20 of those proceedings have actually ended with impeachment. There have been just eight convictions by the Senate, all of them of federal judges.5
Only three U.S. Presidents—Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton, and Donald Trump—have been impeached by the U.S. House of Representatives. All three were acquitted by the Senate. -

3 words of original thought....sixteen volumes of copy pasta...that's not how it's supposed to work
(and that assumes the 3 words were actual original thought and not just what you surmised from the copy paste shit)
Thinking and being wrong is better than quoting others over and over and that quoted material being right... -

2021-12-08 at 1:19 AM UTCBiden has issued 72 executive orders (from EO 13985 through EO 14056) in less than a year, more than any of the four years Trump was in office. So, who's really the larger threat to the checks and balances? That's right. Biden.

You are too stupid to know that "The power to impeach serves as the first step in an important check on the executive and judicial branches of government regarding violations of law and abuses of power…" means that impeachment is the FIRST STEP.
Rump has been stepped on TWICE and therefore has been IMPEACHED TWICE, moron.

2021-12-08 at 6:47 PM UTCImpeachment is a process. That process contains more than just one element. The House can only oversee a part of that entire process. Articles of impeachment is not an impeachment, only a part of the entire process. Just because CNN and Wikipedia told you Trump was impeached does not make it so.

Just because Rump told you he won the election doesn't make it so either.
