The video explains the impeachment process, highlighting that impeachment is a process, not an outcome. It covers historical impeachments of Presidents Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton, neither of whom were removed from office. The process begins in the House of Representatives, where charges are investigated and articles of impeachment are drafted. If approved by a simple majority, the process moves to the Senate for a trial. The Senate acts as judge and jury, requiring a two-thirds vote to convict. The video also provides statistics on past impeachments and discusses the precedent set by Senator William Blunt's case.
