Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
It’s the holiday season in the faculty lounge and the subpoenas are hung by the chimney with care. On this episode, Professors Epstein and Yoo do a deep dive into the strengths and weaknesses of the impeachment case, the shortcomings of the Inspector General’s report on the Russia investigation, and the greatest legal question of our time: can you impeach an ex-president? All that plus Richard breaks down the economics of Christmas, John calls for civil disobedience in the Berkeley food scene, and Franklin Pierce finally gets called to account.

… in which Professor Epstein gratuitously assigns the worst possible interpretation of Donald Trump’s blurtings.
So what else is new.
It continues to amaze me how so many learned constitutional scholars fail to recognize that “Treason, Bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors” are not the only *impeachable* offenses, but rather are the offenses that require removal upon *conviction.* It’s essentially a minimum sentencing provision.
Maybe Gaetz really meant we should be impeaching a certain former VICE president. hmmm
It was a reference to Obama:
