Wrong.
“Impeachments are confined to political characters, to political crimes and misdemeanors, and to political punishments.” Justice James Wilson.
Impeachment was for attempts to “subvert the Constitution.” George Mason.
Impeachment was to be used for “the abuse of the public trust.” Alexander Hamilton.
Impeachments were imposed for “unconstitutional opinions, attempts to subvert the fundamental laws and introduce arbitrary power.” Justice Joseph Story.
Very simply, impeachment was the recourse when judges intruded on the domain of the other two branches, affronted the will of the people, or introduced arbitrary power by seizing the role of the legislature. These judges must go. Let blackrobes nationwide understand that they can be fired.
Nonsense by O’Connor. Throw the bums out. Great quotes - thanks for posting them.
It is amazing that these judges and politicians think their jobs are a birthright like the Kennedys. “Public service” my arse. They are liars and parasites.
These aren’t impeachments merely constitutional exercises othe Iowa constitution. Nor are they “retaliation”, just voters doing their jobs
