Congress passed a law stating that an impeachment and removal would strip POTUS of his immunity for an official act?
Weird, I must have missed that legislation.
You do understand that Congress can impeach and remove a POTUS for whatever the hell Congress wants to impeach and remove him for, right? It is functionally no different than a motion of no confidence in parliamentary systems—our set up just makes it a lot harder to do because of the 2/3rds requirement. There is no legal standard for what “high crime or misdemeanor” means in a purely political context.
