As part of the blueprint for checks and balances, the United States Constitution outlines a procedure for Congress to impeach and remove public officials, including the president of the United States. Develop an argument on whether the congressional procedure outlined in the Constitution for impeachment and removal an effective check on the president, too weak a check on the president, or too strong a check on the president

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

In the United States political system, it is true that Congress or the legislative branch as part of the blueprint for checks and balances has the power to impeach and remove public officials, including the President of the United States, as has been the case with Andrew Johnson, Bill Gates, and Donald Trump.

This congressional procedure outlined in the Constitution for impeachment and removal is an effective check on the president, however, the procedure has its complexities because it requires both chambers -Senate and House of Representatives- to vote and decide about the future of the President.

The US Constitution authorizes Congress to impeach the President basically for the following reasons: bribery, high crimes, and treason.

The problems start with those definitions and the legal terms used by lawyers to accuse and defend. Then, the vote on the House of Representatives and if it passes, it has to go to the Senate. In the Senate, it is needed two-thirds or more have to vote to convict the President.

In US history, both impeached Presidents -Johson in 1968 and Bill Clinton in 1988- have been acquitted.

Read this body paragraph from an essay about poaching.

International laws are rules that different countries agree to follow. Strong international laws make it more difficult to sell poached animal parts. For example, international law resulted in the cooperation and training of law-enforcement groups from Kenya, Tanzania, and Thailand. As a result, large shipments of elephant ivory were discovered before they left an airport in Kenya. Actions like this help countries stop groups that benefit from poaching.

Which sentence in the paragraph gives a reason that supports the claim?

“International laws are rules that different countries agree to follow.”
“Strong international laws make it more difficult to sell poached animal parts.”
“As a result, large shipments of elephant ivory were discovered before they left an airport in Kenya.”
“Actions like this help countries stop groups that benefit from poaching.”
