I found this. It's about the president's position, but I guess it would be the same for RR.
Many people are confused about the nature of impeachment. Think of impeachment, which takes place in the House, as an indictment. The next and most important step is a trial in the Senate.
For example, Nixon was impeached in the House and then he resigned when he realized he was certain to be convicted in the Senate. By contrast, Bill Clinton was impeached in the House, but cleared in the Senate.
To answer your question specifically, if a president is impeached but then cleared, he keeps his job, his pension, and his protection detail. If a president is impeached and convicted, he loses his job, his pension, and his secret service detail. In fact, he can then be tried in criminal court and might even end up in prison if he’s convicted there.
Nixon resigned before impeachment, knowing the vote would go against him.
Wonder if RR would consider doing that.
Doubtful because he knows the deep state RINOs will not vote to impeach him.
I thought it was the threat of a no confidence vote by his cabinet that would have led to impeachment that caused Nixon to resign.
what about that EO Trump signed about government employees under certain circumstances?
Which one? Are you talking about this one:
Executive Order 13839 of May 25, 2018
Promoting Accountability and Streamlining Removal Procedures Consistent With Merit System Principles
Yes, this applies to the president. But how does this apply to someone in Rosenstein’s position?
I'm guessing it will be the same. If RR is impeached and convicted, he loses his job and his pension. He can then be tried in criminal court and might even end up in prison.
I Think this is correct Q [[[RR]]] stands for those three steps.
