Impeachment in American History
Twenty-one “civil officers of the United States” have been impeached by the House of Representatives over the course of American history. Fifteen of the impeached officials have been federal judges, one has been a senator, another a cabinet secretary, and three have been presidents (Trump twice, of course). The Senate has taken up each of these impeachments, eventually, but has not always completed the process with a decision on guilt or acquittal. Only three federal judges have been impeached by the House, found guilty by the Senate, removed and disqualified from holding federal office in the future. Five more, again all federal judges, have been impeached, convicted, removed from office but not disqualified from holding federal office in the future – one of those, Alcee Hastings, was subsequently elected to Congress.

We’ve entered the last month of the regular season and LSU is still managing to keep it’s head above water. The near sweep at Ole Miss and even the single win against Arkansas last weekend were hugely important in terms of making sure LSU actually reaches the SEC post season in Hoover. Here’s where things stand:
LSU 7-14
MIZ 5-16
For the SEC Tournament, the last two teams in the conference (irregardless of division) stay home. LSU has a two game lead on the rest of the bottom and basically controls it’s own destiny by playing Auburn and A&M over the next few weeks. Winning the series against both is hugely important. From there, who knows what the summer holds. Get a win (or preferably two) in Hoover and a post season trip to some far-flung locale is still reasonably possible. With a low 20s RPI and the consensus #1 Strength of Schedule in the country, LSU’s resume can somewhat mitigate it’s poor record. The Tigers just n

Twenty-three yards from the far chain, 44 yards from the goal line, Trey Lance crouched in shotgun formation intending to pass to the right. Jimmy Kepouros lined up wide left, processing the situation: third down, start of the fourth quarter, his and Lance s undefeated squad up eight in the 2020 FCS national championship game. Teeing up a field-goal attempt might have padded the lead, provided Lance was inclined to settle for the safe play. But no receiver got open, so he sprinted forward, ball in hand, and no defender so much as laid a finger on him.
