But what if your job happens to be the most powerful position in the country - or the world? That's where impeachment comes in. But how does it work? Alex Gendler details the process of impeachment.

    The truth, guys- RUclips Algorithm reads current events

      @jornzwaagstra1150 4 года назад +62

      well if a lot of people search for a topic then youtube will recommend it and since the topic is really relevant for a lot of people, lots of people search for the topic. then the recommendation start recommending even more and now we are in a endless loop that will slow down when the topic isn't relevant anymore. SO the algorithm isn't really reading the current events it's just trying to stay relevant with our own intrest. or maybe that is what they want me to say hhmmmmmm

      @Shivani2006 There's no treason, and the accusation of a crime is rather lame. Trump asked Ukraine to look into Joe Biden. Joe Biden's son has fishy a $50k/month job with a Ukranian oil company without any experience, education etc to have the job. Finding Biden involved in corruption would be good for the U.S., and good for Trump. If you see it good for the U.S., it looks like nothing. If you see Trump trying to take Biden down ahead of 2020, you might try to impeach him. That's it. Quite unbelievable that it's gone this far.

      1) Investigations take time
      2) How is it a tool for the democrats? Robert Mueller is actually a registered republican. That shouldn't matter, as this investigation isn't political, but that certainly disproves the idea that he is the democrats' tool. Not to mention he wasn't appointed by democrats, he was appointed by the Justice Department in a republican administration. So I really don't see your point.

    “Individual Members of the House can introduce impeachment resolutions like
    ordinary bills, or the House could initiate proceedings by passing a resolution authorizing an inquiry.” Pelosi has neither introduced a bill nor asked for a resolution authorizing an inquiry.

    • @LazyGameClips
      @LazyGameClips 4 года назад +1

      I refer to the video on Checks and balances. An inquiry does not need to be authorized or voted on. Heads of committee have full authority to proceed with an impeachment inquiry with or without the approval of the Speaker of the House. This is why you're seeing an impeachment inquiry take place without a vote on the house floor. Not to mention that over the past 2 years impeachment has been brought up many times, but alternative measures were pursued to avoid it until now.

    • @tullymerton
      @tullymerton 4 года назад +2

      Actually, Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner explained how the last two Impeachments worked. Committees do not create agendas for the House to act upon. The House creates agendas for Committees to act upon.
