Impeachment and Removal
Impeachment and Removal Jared P. Cole Legislative Attorney Todd Garvey Legislative Attorney October 29, 2015 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R44260 Impeachment and Removal Summary The impeachment process provides a mechanism for removal of the President, Vice President, and other “civil Officers of the United States” found to have engaged in “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.” The Constitution places the responsibility and authority to determine whether to impeach an individual in the hands of the House of Representatives. Should a simple majority of the House approve articles of impeachment specifying the grounds upon which the impeachment is based, the matter is then presented to the Senate, to which the Constitution provides the sole power to try an impeachment. A conviction on any one of the articles of impeachment requires the support of a two-thirds majority of the Senators present. Should a conviction occur, the Senate retains limited authority to determine the appropriate punishment. Under the Constitution, the penalty for conviction on an impeachable offense is limited to either removal from office, or removal and prohibition against holding any future offices of “honor, Trust or Profit under the United States.” Although removal from office would appear to flow automatically from conviction on an article of impeachment, a separate vote is necessary should the Senate deem it appropriate to disqualify the individual convicted from holding future federal offices of public trust. Approval of such a measure requires only the support of a simple majority. Key Takeaways of This Report The Constitution gives Congress the authority to impeach and remove the President, Vice President, and other federal “civil officers” upon a determination that such officers have engaged in treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors. -
Senate Trials and Factional Disputes: Impeachment As a Madisonian Device
TURLEY TO PRINTER 11/30/99 3:15 PM Duke Law Journal VOLUME 49 OCTOBER 1999 NUMBER 1 SENATE TRIALS AND FACTIONAL DISPUTES: IMPEACHMENT AS A MADISONIAN DEVICE JONATHAN TURLEY† ABSTRACT In this Article, Professor Turley addresses the use of impeachment, specifically the Senate trial, as a method of resolving factional disputes about an impeached official’s legitimacy to remain in office. While the Madisonian democracy was designed to regulate factional pressures, academics and legislators often discuss impeachments as relatively static events focused solely on removal. Alternatively, impeachment is sometimes viewed as an extreme countermajoritarian measure used to “reverse” or “nullify” the popular election of a President. This Article advances a more dynamic view of the Senate trial as a Madisonian device to resolve factional disputes. This Article first discusses the history of impeachment and demon- strates that it is largely a history of factional or partisan disputes over legitimacy. The Article then explores how impeachment was used historically as a check on the authority of the Crown and tended to be used most heavily during periods of political instability. English and colonial impeachments proved to be highly destabilizing in the ab- sence of an integrated political system. The postcolonial impeachment process was modified to convert it from a tool of factional dissension to a vehicle of factional resolution. This use of Senate trials as a Madisonian device allows for the public consideration of the full rec- † J.B. and Maurice C. Shapiro Professor of Public Interest Law at George Washington University.

Presidential Address: "The Anatomy of Treachery"
© 1957/2010 The British Psychological Society The anatomy of treachery by E. B. Strauss, M.A, D.M., D.Sc., F.R.C.P., Physician for Psychological Medicine, St. Bartholomew’s Hospital, and Lecturer in Psychological Medicine, St. Bartholomew’s Medical College, University of London _____________________________________________________________________ Citation: Strauss, E.B. (1957). The anatomy of treachery. Bulletin of the British Psychological Society. Issue 32, pp.1–13. _____________________________________________________________________ Presidents come and go; they are remembered for a while, and then forgotten by the Society over which they once presided. For the President himself, however, his election is a memorable and moving experience, involving gratitude, often hard to verbalize gracefully, heart-searching and doubts. Further, how few presidential addresses, even if courtesy demands their appearance in print afterwards, prove to be less ephemeral than the may-fly which enjoys life for one glorious day only! It is not since the very early days of this Society that a practising physician, a specialist in psychological medicine, has been accorded the great honour of being President of the British Psychological Society, an important society which is rapidly advancing along the path which, we hope, will end with a Royal Charter; and I am accordingly exceptionally grateful for the high distinction. This society has always had a flourishing Medical Section, which [2]indicates, I think, that medical psychology—i.e. the application of scientific psychological principles to medical problems—is considered to be a legitimate (even if, at times, unruly) child of the parent science. I recently defined psychology as that science which deals with the nature, functions and phenomenology of the mind; but members of the general public appear to have the vaguest ideas as to what a psychologist is.
