Answer 1

7. The impeachment process outlined in Article II of the U.S. Constitution involves the House of Representatives initiating impeachment proceedings by bringing charges against a federal official, followed by a trial in the Senate where the accused faces removal from office if found guilty of "high crimes and misdemeanors." 8. The Supreme Court's decision in United States v. Nixon upheld the principle of the rule of law by ruling that even the President is not above the law and must comply with judicial orders, including turning over evidence relevant to a criminal investigation. This decision reinforced the idea that no one, not even the highest government official, is exempt from legal accountability.
