Keith E. Whittington

Keith Whittington, David Boies Professor of Law at Yale, dives deep into the impeachment power outlined in his new book. He clarifies what the Constitution says about impeachment while exploring the notion of 'high crimes and misdemeanors.' Whittington emphasizes Congress's crucial role and the political intricacies involved, especially in light of recent events like the January 6th Capitol attack. The discussion also critiques partisanship's influence and ponders whether Trump's second impeachment should have led to a conviction.
