Alan Dershowitz says the Constitution doesn't allow for impeachment based on policy differences

Harvard professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz said Thursday that the Constitution doesn't allow for impeachment just because of differences between the two political parties. 

"The Constitution doesn't provide for impeachment for differences in policies or even for doing things that we all think are wrong," Dershowitz told the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show. "That provides a good reason for perhaps voting against that party, but not a good reason for impeaching or criminally prosecuting."

Dershowitz stated that he's concerned with the politicization of the justice system and worried that the GOP may start going after Biden in response to an IRS whistleblower's allegations that the Biden administration gave "preferential treatment" to Hunter Biden.

"What we're seeing is tit for tat politics and so there probably will be an effort to get Biden," he said. "There are already some extreme Republicans who are calling for the impeachment of Biden or calling for the impeachment of certain people in his administration. Probably, there will be an effort to try to impeach Tony Blinken."

Dershowitz added that government agencies are supposed to be independent and not used as political weapons.

"I do know that you cannot have political pressure from the White House or from the administration on the IRS, which is supposed to be absolutely independent," he said.
