Impeachment as a Recurring Political Weapon, From Trump to Clinton

Showing 19 Impeachment videos from Charlie Kirk's video collection.

Impeachment shows up across the site less as a single event than as a recurring political weapon both sides accuse the other of overusing. Candace Owens made the fullest defense of Trump against the charge at the Oxford Union, tracing calls for his impeachment back to the morning after his 2016 victory and arguing the Russia collusion investigation that followed collapsed without producing the evidence its proponents promised, treating the entire episode as proof the process had become detached from any actual wrongdoing. Charlie Kirk extended that argument into current politics, framing Chief Justice Roberts's pushback against calls to impeach judges ruling against Trump as a genuine constitutional dispute over where sovereign authority actually resides, and separately calling for Ilhan Omar's impeachment after she criticized Kirk's legacy following his death, a position President Trump echoed directly from Air Force One. Historians on the site placed the current fights in a longer lineage: Bill Whittle traced how the Lewinsky scandal and subsequent impeachment overshadowed Bill Clinton's genuine policy achievements, while Allen Guelzo examined Andrew Johnson's impeachment as the consequence of a president fundamentally unequal to the moment he inherited after Lincoln's assassination, a comparison that implicitly framed impeachment as a tool reserved for presidents who had already failed on the merits.
