Topic	Should Trump be impeached?
red sox 777 06/22/19 3:09:07 PM #30:	banananor posted... Is the police chief eliminated from being a suspect in a case in his district? No, but he won't be allowed to investigate his own case. Some other authority will be called on to do so. But in the case of the US President, there is no other federal authority authorized by the Constitution. I think maybe a "runaway grand jury" could do it. Unfortunately grand juries have been neutered of their independent investigation powers in practice, and by statute from the 60s apparently federal grand juries can't charge someone with a crime without a government prosecutor signing off on it anymore. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! <cite>red sox 777 posted [p:923692786] in Should Tru...
