Government officials take an oath to uphold the Constitution and not only have not done so, but they also have been caught lying about it. This is at least as bad as Nixon's attempt to cover up Watergate, forcing his resignation, and Clinton was impeached for lying to a grand jury. This is way over the top, much more serious than Nixon and Clinton. Is it time for progressives to consider investigating grounds for impeachment?
