The Whore of BlahbylonNever stop talking about it.
Nienkez 🔻@The_Whore_of_Blahbylon @js I don't care about the Epstein Files. The man is a criminal and has added war crimes to the long list. Releasing files will aid nothing. He will juste deny and on with the next thing. Just impeach the psycho!

Impeached but not convicted. That process failed to get the requisite number of votes in the Senate. Therefore no sanction-phase was reached.
When "the man on the street" says "impeached", they're usually intending more than just the House's portion of the process. Simple impeachment (the academic meaning) means, essentially, fuck-all absent the Senate's trial process ending in a conviction.
There's not been a successful full impeachment-conviction during the lifetimes of the current electorate. I suspect that even if there were, most people outside of government and academic circles still would not understand the difference.

@ferricoxide @The_Whore_of_Blahbylon @js Just get the man out of the White House. The rest -including the Epstein files - will mean nothing unless he is removed.
