    6. Bogus attempt to prosecute Senator Mark Kelly, and pilfer his pension, when all he did was tell the truth.
    7. Bogus attempt to prosecute Senator Elissa Slotkin.
    8. Bogus attempt to prosecute Representative Jason Crow.
    9. Bogus attempt to prosecute Representative Maggie Goodlander.
    10. Bogus attempt to prosecute Representative Chris Deluzio.
    11. Bogus attempt to prosecute Representative Chrissy Houlahan.

27. Multibillion dollar bribes paid to family members in exchange for official favors. Note 8, Note 1.
28. During his first term, causing the death of at least half a million Americans, by politicizing the response to Covid. The passage of time does not make this any less outrageous.
29. Collecting illegal tariffs for over a year.
30. Imposing 15% across-the-board tariffs. This might not be illegal, but it’s outrageously stupid.
31. Fraud, 34 counts, for which he was convicted by a jury.
32. Stealing money allocated for housing of US troops deployed overseas, and spending it on the border wall. The constitution says this is absolutely not allowed.
33. Detaining people for weeks on end for no reason, e.g. detaining visitors who were here on a valid visa and who were on their way out of the country when they were snatched.
34. Deporting immigrants and refugees who were here 100% legally and had no criminal record whatsoever.
35. Last but not least: Immunity for official acts. The founders would have considered this off-scale outrageous. There’s no legitimate basis for it. We never needed presidential immunity until we got a criminal president.

2 Notes

1.

If this isn’t a clear-cut impeachable offense, I don’t know what is.

2.

This is part of his never-ending efforts to undermine elections, dating back to the primaries in the summer of 2016.

3.

He actually got impeached for this. The passage of time does not make the conduct any less outrageous. The fact that he got acquitted is a scandal and an outrage of epic proportions.

4.

This is a twofer: Extortion is a crime and an impeachaable offense. Secondly, foreign interference in our elections is also a crime.

5.

This is another twofer: His never-ending efforts to overturn one election after another are super-outrageous. Secondly, even if the Atlanta raid weren’t election-related, it would be intolerable. Our forbears pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor to put a stop to unreasonable searches and seizures. They started a war over this, as explained here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Writ_of_assistance

6.

Under US law, extortion is considered a form of bribery, i.e. solicitation of a bribe; see 18 USC 201. The constitution explicitly lists bribery as an impeachable offense.

7.

When Nixon used government agencies to do his personal and political dirty work, it formed one of the three articles of impeachment approved by the Judiciary Committee.

8.

Conjobservatives made a huge stink about payments to Hunter Biden, even though there was never any proof of bribery, i.e. no serious evidence that government decisions were affected. The bribery occurring now is a hundred times more clear-cut and the amount of money is a hundred times larger.
