Another Gateway Pundit nonsensical article.

Right out of the gate, basic facts wrong - the Senate does not impeach - the House does that. The Senate holds the trial and decides whether to convict. Impeachment / Conviction in Congress also has nothing to do with litigation in the judicial branch. Impeachment / Conviction has to do with whether or not someone can maintain public office - not whether they can or will be prosecuted criminally.

Has anyone ever survived impeachment then separately convicted of (or even charged with) related crimes?
