High crimes and misdemeanors is a phrase from Section 4 of Article Two of the United States Constitution: "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."

Nadler is adding that impeachment is justified when a President expresses righteous indignation for being falsely accused of colluding with a foreign entity to throw an election, and, impeachment is necessary when a President simply is exercising Article II rights and duties.

Imagine Nadler trying this under any war time president. In fact, imagine him trying this against Obama or Clinton.
