And with that, that‘s a wrap! Stay tuned for our next book! #impeachment #jeffreyengel #politics #uspolitics #politicalscience #history #ushistory #president #executivebranch #truecrime #houseofrepresentatives #senate
Short version: it‘s not over and may never be over, but that‘s why we have systems in place. #impeachment #jeffreyengel #futurepredictions #spoilers #president #presidentialelections #trump2024 #donaldtrump #uspolitics #politicalscience #elections
I just love this quote from our author, Jeffrey Engel! #impeachment #jeffreyengel #richardnixon #politicalscience #uspolitics #history #ushistory
Did I mention that I love irony? It‘s ironic to me that recording and listening to private conversations created the downfall of Richard Nixon. Here was a president who listened in on his political rivals, denied it for years, then several recorded private conversations admitting what he did was used against him forcing him to resign. #politics #impeachment #jeffreyengel #richardnixon #spying #recording #history #uspolitics #ushistory
After Clinton was acquitted, he was asked if he can forgive and forget. His response… #billclinton #impeachment #peterbaker #ushistory #uspolitics #history #politics #unitedstates #unitedstatesofamerica #acquittal #forgiveness
Sometimes getting along hinders the process, especially if groupthink is evident. We know this from business, but Bill Clinton‘s team applied it to politics. As long as the senate keeps debating, Clinton isn‘t removed from office. #impeachment #peterbaker #billclinton #senate #trial #monicalewinsky #history #politicalscience #uspolitics #ushistory #unitedstates #presidency
Should I ever teach history, I want to teach my students to put themselves in the shoes of historical figures or people of the time period. If I ever get to teach college level 1990s presidential history, I promise you there will be an assignment dedicated to what the lawyers might have said when breaking the news to Hillary of Clinton‘s confession #confession #hillaryclinton #billclinton #impeachment #peterbaker #ushistory #uspolitics
Interesting how Hillary wrote a memo and did research on presidential impeachment- I love foreshadowing in history. #foreshadowing #irony #hillaryrodham #hillaryclinton #richardnixon #billclinton #impeachment #uspolitics #ushistory #history #politicalscience #presidency #peterbaker
Let‘s play a fun game called how many quotes can we read that we can apply to today? #billclinton #impeachment #peterbaker #unitedstates #uspresidency #uspolitics #ushistory #corruption #history #politicalscience
One positive from the Nixon investigation- both parties were willing to investigate to get to the truth. #impeachment #timothynaftali #richardnixon #resignation #bipartisan #houseofrepresentatives #senate #ushistory #uspolitics #investigation #history #politicalscience
Nixon did a lot of shady things, but this impeachment focused on agency abuse and obstruction of justice. #nixon #richardnixon #impeachment #timothynaftali politics #ushistory #uspresidency #history #politicalscience
I rarely cover vocab on here, but thought I would share a new word: #mugwumps #impeachment #socialstudies #vocab #timothynaftali #ushistory #history #teaching
So I like this quote because it reminds me of the Trump trials today. No matter what evidence is presented against Trump, his supporters will always find a way to rationalize it. #impeachment #timothynaftali #richardnixon #psychology #politicalscience #ushistory #uspolitics #history
It‘s more of an end of the chapter question, but I‘m going to ask it now. I think we can all see this will not end well. However, how would things have been different if Nixon had just cooperated and handed over what he was asked to hand over from the beginning? #discussion #richardnixon #impeachment #politicalscience #uspolitics #history #ushistory
Sometimes, we just make things worse for ourselves. #richardnixon #impeachment #trial #ushistory #timothynaftali #history #politicalscience #uspolitics
We rarely have the book just give us the lesson, but here we are. #andrewjohnson #impeachment #jonmeacham #uspolitics #ushistory #socialstudies #politicalscience #history #presidency #usgovernment
We need more politicians like Lincoln who accept defeat and is willing to work with the administration to transition #abrahamlincoln #impeachment #jonmeacham #andrewjohnson #history #ushistory #politicalscience #uspolitics #kindlequotes
