On November 12, the United States Supreme Court refused to hear Remington's appeal of the Connecticut Supreme Court decision allowing the Sandy Hook lawsuits against gun manufacturers to continue. At issue is the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act of 2005, signed into law by George W. Bush, with bi-partisan support in the House and the Senate. Neither party escapes scrutiny on this one, but the NRA and Bush pushed for it and got it passed, to the substantial safety detriment of the American people.

The charge of high crimes and misdemeanors covers allegations of misconduct by officials, such as dishonesty, negligence, perjury of oath, abuse of authority, bribery, intimidation, misuse of public funds or assets, failure to supervise, dereliction of duty, unbecoming conduct, refusal to obey a lawful order, chronic intoxication, or tax evasion. Offenses by officials also include ordinary crimes, but perhaps with different standards of proof and punishment than for non-officials, on the grounds that more is expected of officials by their oaths of office. Indeed the offense may not even be a breach of criminal statute. See Harvard Law Review "The majority view is that a president can legally be impeached for “intentional, evil deeds” that “drastically subvert the Constitution and involve an unforgivable abuse of the presidency” — even if those deeds didn’t violate any criminal laws.
