What? Can't believe someone other than Trump, and a Democrat at that, could get impeached?

Let them prove it in court.

It doesn't go to court. The state House passes the bill, the Senate tries the case. Of course, if this were Trump, you'd have already declared him guilty and demanded an execution.

This is news to me....that the national Congress can supersede a state Congress and impeach its' governor. Can you map that out for the reading audience by tomorrow evening or at a later date? We'll wait.

Each state's legislature has the power to impeach state politicians in office, just like Congress at the federal level.
The process is the same, but the necessary votes for impeachment and conviction can vary from state to state. Usually a 2/3rds majority must impeach and convict.
Here's a couple of successful impeachments in Arizona over the years.

Arizona and two other states adopted public funding to fight corruption.

In Azscam, a half dozen or so legislators were caught on video taking bribes to vote certain ways on certain bills. They all fell on a proverbial sword and resigned--some were also criminally convicted--from office, apologizing profusely. The exception was Carolyn Walker. She got loud and angry calling her fellow legislators "racists" and such and saying she wasn't going to resign and they couldn't make her.
Her employer (AZ legislators are part-time and hold other jobs usually) fired her. The legislature impeached and convicted her. Her vote in the senate was the only one against her conviction.
Then there was Governor Ev Mecham. Ev was a car dealer turned politician and everybody in politics pretty much hated the guy. The legislature found a reason to impeach him and the rest is history.

He was the 15th of 15 governors across all 50 states to be impeached in US history. If Walz is impeached he'll be number 16.

The national Congress has nothing to do with impeaching state officials. The state does that. I don't know where you got that idea from.

Cheeto Jeezus and company seem to think otherwise. Here, for your education. Hopefully you'll have read it carefully and comprehensively when I pick this up tomorrow: www.politico.com/news/2025/08/21/donald-trump-washington-courts-00516892

Dirty City (DC) is not a state. It is a federal district that is ultimately controlled by the federal government. So, you picked a shit example.
