Podcasts about presidential impeachment

Some scholars call our politically fraught and hyper-partisan times “the age of impeachment.” They claim the increased use of impeachment and removal proceedings signals an erosion in institutional norms, perhaps that we've even “overwhelmed” the use of impeachment and diluted impeachment of any significance. What does U.S. impeachment history tell us? The Constitution provides that treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors are impeachable offenses. A common thread that runs throughout presidential impeachment proceedings is an effort by legal counsel to try and define the scope of impeachable misconduct.  On this episode of Discovery, we discuss the history of impeachment with Professor Michael Gerhardt from the Carolina Law faculty, whose teaching and research focuses on constitutional conflicts between presidents and Congress. He has authored nine books, testified more than 20 times before Congress, and has served as an expert commentator for CNN, Fox and MSNBC. Gerhardt joined the Carolina Law faculty in 2005 and serves as the Burton Craige Distinguished Professor of Jurisprudence. Gerhardt's new book, The Law of Presidential Impeachment, provides a comprehensive and nonpartisan explanation of impeachment's role in presidential accountability.

Delve into the heart of the impeachment process in the U.S. Constitution with Professor Michael J. Gerhardt,  a distinguished professor of jurisprudence at the University of North Carolina Law School. Explore the historical origins, the framers' intentions, and the complexities of holding high-ranking officials accountable. With insights into recent events and the evolving role of political parties, this episode offers a thought-provoking examination of democracy's safeguard. 

Have you ever wondered how impeachment really works? As a witness and consultant in the impeachment trials of Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, legal scholar Michael J. Gerhardt has collected a lifetime of scholarly research and firsthand experience. But despite his proximity to such high-profile cases, Gerhardt doesn't advocate for or against the impeachment of specific presidents. Instead, he illuminates the legal and procedural aspects that govern the process, providing a comprehensive overview of impeachment from its origins to present-day practice. His new book, The Law Of Presidential Impeachment, is a nonpartisan exploration that aims to break down the process and offer readers a deeper understanding of how the Constitution holds presidents accountable. In The Law Of Presidential Impeachment, Gerhardt guides us through the historical roots of presidential impeachment, tracing it back to the nation's founding when American colonists, still reflecting on past grievances with their former king, embedded the process in the Constitution. Impeachment recently returned to the forefront of American political discourse during Donald Trump's presidency, but Gerhardt's expertise goes beyond contemporary events to provide a timeless perspective on the constitutional mechanism. If you've ever wanted the chance to peek into the process of presidential impeachments, join us as Gerhardt helps to deepen understanding of our executive branch and the overarching governmental system that shapes our democracy. Michael J. Gerhardt is the Burton Craige Distinguished Professor of Jurisprudence at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the Scholar in Residence at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, and the foremost scholar on impeachment in the United States. He is one of only two legal scholars to testify in three different presidential impeachment hearings and served as Special Counsel to the Presiding Officer in Donald Trump's second impeachment trial. He is the only legal scholar to address the entire House of Representatives on the law of presidential impeachment was the Order of the Coif Distinguished Visitor in 2020-22 (an honor given only to one legal scholar each year in recognition of their scholarship) and received University of North Carolina's highest award given to a faculty member in recognition of their public service in 2023.   Buy the Companion Book The Law of Presidential Impeachment: A Guide for the Engaged Citizen Third Place Books

President Joe Biden is being threatened with impeachment by the Republican-led U.S. House of Representatives. His predecessor, Donald Trump, was twice impeached by a Democratic-led House. Three presidents earlier, Bill Clinton was impeached. No president has ever been removed from office as the result of an impeachment, but it continues to be a high-profile way to go after the president of the United States. But what exactly is impeachment? Why is it included in the U.S. Constitution? How does the process work? Constitutional scholar Michael Gerhardt offers a comprehensive, nonpartisan, and up-to-date explanation of the Constitution's various mechanisms for holding presidents accountable for misdeeds real and imagined. He is the author of the new book The Law of Presidential Impeachment, which draws on a lifetime of scholarly research, as well as Gerhardt's unique experience as a witness and consultant in the impeachment trials of Bill Clinton and Donald Trump. Join us as Gerhardt offers new perspectives on impeachment, arguing that it cannot be properly understood in a vacuum, but must instead be viewed in the context of its coordination with such other mechanisms as criminal prosecutions, censure, elections, congressional oversight, and the Fourteenth and Twenty-Fifth Amendments.

The Law of Presidential Impeachment: A Guide for the Engaged Citizen by Michael J. Gerhardt https://amzn.to/3vsc1GJ A clear and comprehensive overview of presidential impeachment from a leading expert in the field As a result of Donald Trump's presidency, impeachment was once again thrust into the spotlight of American political discussion. However, its history goes back to the very founding of the nation, when American colonists, remembering their grievances against their former king, entrenched the process in their new Constitution. The Law of Presidential Impeachment breaks down both the law and politics of this process, providing a comprehensive, nonpartisan, and up-to-date explanation of the Constitution's various mechanisms for holding presidents accountable for their misdeeds. Based on a lifetime of scholarly research, as well as unique experience as a witness and consultant in the impeachment trials of Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, Michael J. Gerhardt's new book takes the reader back to the basics of presidential impeachments. Rather than provide reasons for or against impeaching particular presidents, he explains the law and procedures that govern impeachment, examining a number of significant, yet under-explored, issues and themes. Gerhardt offers new perspectives on the subject, arguing that it cannot be properly understood in a vacuum, but must instead be viewed in the context of its coordination with such other mechanisms as criminal prosecutions, censure, elections, congressional oversight, and the Fourteenth and Twenty-Fifth Amendments.

The deliciously redundant Yogi Berra is a winner once more – it may be “déjà vu all over again” as the GOP ponders impeaching Biden. And, can Trump dump his D.C. federal judge on grounds of bias?

May 16, 1868. The Capitol is filled with spectators, anxiously trying to predict how each Senator will vote. It's the first presidential impeachment trial in American history, and its outcome will have profound effects on Reconstruction, the great project of rebuilding the nation after the Civil War. What made many members of Congress declare President Andrew Johnson unfit to lead that effort? And what motivated this former ally of Abraham Lincoln to declare himself an enemy of true Reconstruction?Visit History.com/Reconstruction for more.

The impeachment has finally concluded, and without surprise, the Republicans could not find a backbone to prosecute the twice impeached former President Donald J. Trump for his role in the riots at the Capitol in Washington, DC. However, there were some interesting names that did not vote in favor of the former president. One of those names? Senator Richard Barr. So many questions were left unanswered. Why were witnesses not called? Why not put Capitol Police Eugene Goodman on the stand? Goodman is the same man that was later awarded the highest congressional honor (Congressional Gold Medal) for leading rioters away from the Senate doors during the insurrection. Why not give him an opportunity to speak on the incidents that took place on January 6th, being that he was actually in the midst of chaos, face to face with the violent mob? Those questions will never be answered, but a positive that did emerge out of this hideous impeachment was Rep. Stacy Plaskett calling out Republicans for their blatant racism. It is still unbelievable that a riot sparked by Donald Trump-a rally for white supremacy-actually took place at the United States Capitol. What is not surprising is the mayhem happening in the St. Louis jail. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected every stitch of this country including the correctional facilities. Prisoners throughout this unprecedented pandemic have experienced blatant human rights violations. The recent riot in St. Louis is a direct result of those violated rights. Speaking of COVID, are we dining inside restaurants with a new strain on the virus running loose? From the impeachment to healthy and safe eating venues, the real question is "What’s in it for Us?"See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today on Culture Shift, Barry Farah talks about the process of impeachment and the due process required for public officials facing indictments. In the United States, the impeachment process does not guarantee removal. Barry describes the process of impeachment as an indictment that requires members of Congress to vote on whether the crime committed is egregious enough for removal. An investigative step is required for the impeachment process to be fully carried out. In this episode Barry Farah goes through the history of presidential impeachments and how it relates to contemporary calls for impeachment. Join us today as Barry discusses the importance of investigation during impeachment to ensure those being indicted are given due process.

Guest: Hamline University Professor of Political Science and University of Minnesota Visiting Professor of Law David Schultz An impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump is underway in the U.S. House of Representatives. The president is alleged to have pressured Ukrainian leaders to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, over the latter's business dealings in Ukraine. Trump is also alleged to have urged Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate possible Ukrainian interference in the 2016 election, despite the fact that there is no evidence of such interference having taken place. A key issue is whether President Trump threatened to withhold military aid to Ukraine if the requested investigations did not materialize. Trump and Ukrainian President Zelensky have both denied that military aid was conditioned on a quid pro quo, although Trump has admitted to discussing the Bidens during a phone call with Zelensky. The impeachment inquiry became public this week, with US diplomats testifying before the House Intelligence Committee. Hamline University Political Science Professor and University of Minnesota Visiting Professor of Law David Schultz discusses the current impeachment inquiry, and previous impeachment proceedings against US presidents.

Impeachment is having yet another moment on Capitol Hill, as Democrats look for a way to enforce what they consider their constitutional duty to investigate the Trump White House. In a surprise Rose Garden speech Wednesday, President Trump said he could no longer work with Democrats until they stop their investigations into his administration and finances. Meanwhile, Democrats argue impeachment is the answer because he's holding up those investigations.

Bob and Ben speak with Jeffrey Engel about the history of Presidential impeachment and how understanding the past can inform the debates surrounding the impeachment of current and future Presidents. Jeff explains the reasons the delegates to the Philadelphia Convention in 1787 chose to enshrine impeachment in the Constitution, how the process works, and what they meant by “other high Crimes and Misdemeanors” (it turns out that last part isn't as vague as you might think). He also talks about the reasons for the impeachments of Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton, why Richard Nixon was so close to being removed from office when he resigned on August 9, 1974, and why Nixon and Clinton's decisions in the face of impeachment might have a lasting effect on American politics today. Jeff's new book Impeachment: An American History, which he co-authored w/ Peter Baker, Jon Meacham, and Timothy Naftali is out from Modern Library on October 16, 2018. Dr. Jeffrey A. Engel is an award-winning American history scholar and director of the Center for Presidential History at Southern Methodist University. He is an expert on the U.S. presidency and American diplomatic history. You can follow him on twitter at @JeffreyAEngel. This episode was recorded on October 9, 2018 and was edited by Gary Fletcher. A special thanks to Dr. Brandon Miller of SMU's Department of History for connecting us with Jeffrey Engel.

Presidential impeachments are vanishingly rare in American constitutional history: in the 230 years since ratification, only three presidents have faced serious attempts to remove them from office. And yet, as President Donald J. Trump’s tumultuous tenure continues, it seems increasingly plausible that we’ll see a fourth. In ordinary times, in ordinary presidencies, impeachment talk is considered taboo: the “I-word” is heard only on the political fringes, if it’s heard at all. Yet Trump’s first year in office saw four resolutions, containing a total of nine articles of impeachment against him, formally introduced in the House. Recent polls reveal strong support for an impeachment inquiry among the Democratic base. Should the Democrats recapture the House in the 2018 midterms, even reluctant members may find that pressure difficult to resist. The rancor engendered by our current impeachment debate bears out Alexander Hamilton’s prediction that impeachments would “seldom fail to agitate the passions of the whole community, and to divide it into parties.” But the scope of “high Crimes and Misdemeanors” shouldn’t turn on one’s opinion of any particular president. Partisans who lower the bar to impeachment in order to punish a president they revile — or raise it to save one they support — may, under future presidents, live to regret the standard they’ve set. This study touches on most of the specific charges directed against President Trump, but it does not answer the question of whether he should be impeached and removed from office. Instead, it is designed to serve as a primer on the purpose, history, and scope of the Constitution’s impeachment provisions — and a corrective to some of the popular myths that have grown up around the remedy. First among those myths is the notion that impeachment is reserved solely for criminal abuses of office. Perversely, as the power of the office has grown, that misconception has ensured that the federal official with the greatest capacity to do harm now enjoys stronger job protection than virtually any other American. But the remedy James Madison described as “indispensable … for defending the community against the incapacity, negligence, or perfidy of the Chief Magistrate” isn’t limited to violations of the law or abuses of official power. As the 1974 House Judiciary Committee report on “Constitutional Grounds for Presidential Impeachment” put it, impeachment was “intended to reach a broad variety of conduct by officers that is both serious and incompatible with the duties of the office.” “A good magistrate will not fear [impeachments],” Massachusetts’ Elbridge Gerry insisted at the Constitutional Convention, and “a bad one ought to be kept in fear of them.” Through the exercise of the “sole Power of Impeachment,” the House can call even the most powerful federal officer to account. That power should never be invoked lightly, but neither should Americans fear to wield it, should it become necessary.

#84: Opening Arguments, Trump Impeachment, and Moral Decision Making Cellar Door Skeptics is back this week with an expert laiden show. The show begins talking with Andrew Torrez Co Host and Legal Expert of the Open Arguments Podcast. We sit down with him and talk about the origins of the podcast, their special nitch in law based podcasting, and their grueling schedule. We also will talk with him about Presidential Impeachment and if we are anywhere near impeachment or if it is just a pie in the sky hope of the left. The second segment of the show will feature Pyschologist David Teachout from Humanity’s Values Podcast and Life Weavings LLC. This segment will tackle the article Christopher mentioned three episodes ago about how moral decision making could be affected by a damaged brain. Christopher and David will look at the scientific article and see if it is too much suplosition or if the study can be used as a valid way to examine how morals can be formed. #OpeningArguments #Impeachment #Morals #Psychology #DonaldTrump #Podcast Subscribe: http://www.spreaker.com/user/cellardoorskeptics Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CellarDoorSkeptics RSS Feed: https://www.spreaker.com/user/8326690/episodes/feed iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/cellar-door-skeptics/id1044088575?mt=2&ign-mpt=uo%3D4 Website: http://cellardoorskeptics.com Stitcher: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/cellar-door-skeptics Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cellardoorskeptics PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/CellarDoorSkeptics Intro Music: http://aloststateofmind.com/ Links ------ http://openargs.com/ https://www.patreon.com/law https://www.facebook.com/openargs/ @Openargs http://patorrez.com/ ------ http://www.lifeweavings.org/humanitys-values-podcast/ https://www.facebook.com/lifeweavingsllc https://www.lifeweavings.org/ ------ http://www.jneurosci.org/content/36/48/12157 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventromedial_prefrontal_cortex https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilitarianism https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4259516/ http://www.philosophybasics.com/branch_deontology.html
