| “We are not going to rule it out or in,” Nadler tells TIME. “If our duty is to do it, we will do it. If it’s not, we won’t. Impeachment is not a punishment. It is not a political act to say we think it’s a good idea to get rid of the President. Impeachment is a defense of the Constitution, a defense of liberty. It’s a very blunt sword that should only be drawn if absolutely necessary. But it may be.” | |
| — Representative Jerry Nadler | |
| From an article written by: Molly Ball (with reporting by: Alana Abramson, Brian Bennett and Philip Elliott) | |
| The article is titled: “The Path To Impeachment“ | |
| The article appears in Time Magazine, dtd: 25 March 2019 | |
