| 0:00.0 | Well, howdy there internet people, Lidsboo again. So today we are going to talk about the |
| 0:07.4 | possible expungement of former President Trump's impeachments because that's apparently a thing |
| 0:16.6 | that's being considered. It looks like McCarthy is kind of on board with the |
| 0:21.7 | idea. |
| 0:23.0 | Generally, what it means is that the House is going to vote to, quote, |
| 0:30.0 | expunge the former president's impeachments. |
| 0:36.3 | There are a lot of legal scholars saying |

| 1:52.0 | it would still be part of the historical record. |
| 1:56.7 | It's not something that's going to disappear regardless of what they do. |
| 2:02.4 | This is once again a show for their base to show them that |
| 2:07.0 | they're doing something and that something is apparently basically adding a line in a history book later. |
| 2:17.0 | It will say, you know, the former President Trump was impeached twice. |
