TODAY, we are submitting our legal analysis directly to the U.S. Senate, detailing exactly how unconstitutional this trial is:
- The Chief Justice of the United States isn’t serving as the presiding officer – something the Constitution requires: “When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside.” (Art. I, Sec. 3)
- The Constitution provides for the impeachment of “The President,” not a former President. (Art. II, Sec. 4)
- You can’t impeach a private citizen – legally, that amounts to an unconstitutional bill of attainder. (Art. I, Sec. 9)
Reps. Swalwell (the subject of the FOIA lawsuit we just filed regarding his connection to a Chinese spy), Raskin, Lieu, and the other radical Left impeachment managers are attempting to pull political stunts.
We MUST NOT let them turn the U.S. Senate into a kangaroo court. I and other senior members of the ACLJ’s legal team have more experience with impeachment than anyone else. Today, as we submit our legal analysis to the Senate, we need YOU to defend the Constitution with us.
Sign Our URGENT Petition: Stop Unconstitutional Impeachment.
Jay Sekulow
ACLJ Chief Counsel
