 High Crimes & Misdemeanors 

     Donald Trump's indictment is the first in U.S. history a former president has been charged with criminal wrongdoing.

     The House of Representatives impeached President Bill Clinton for perjury and obstruction of justice over his coverup of an affair. He admitted to lying under oath, surrendered his law license for five years, and paid a $25,000 fine.

     A grand jury named President Richard Nixon an unindicted co-conspirator for his role in the Watergate scandal. He resigned, avoiding impeachment. 

     A policeman arrested President Ulysses S. Grant for racing his horse-drawn carriage in Washington ... for the second time. He paid a $20 fine.

     Vice President Spiro Agnew resigned amid a corruption scandal, a felony tax-evasion charge. The government dropped corruption charges for alleged kickbacks during his Maryland political career. He was fined $10,000 and was disbarred. 

     Vice President Aaron Burr fled South after fatally shooting Alexander Hamilton in a duel. He returned after New York and New Jersey dropped murder charges. Two years later, Burr allegedly planed the secession of several Western states and tried to create an independent nation.

     So, what's taking so long to indict the Biden family?
