....

Mr. Trump was impeached on Wednesday, Professor Turley said. “Article I, Section 2 says that the House ‘shall have the sole power of impeachment.’ It says nothing about a requirement of referral to complete that act.”....

What's the practical point of this? There has to be one, because these are actually power plays for which absolute legality is not required (neither does it exist).

Maybe to allow arguing on the part of the Dems that an "impeached president" should not be allowed to appoint the successor to Ginsberg?
