How an impeachment unfolds: Inside the 1974 Nixon hearings, day by day | Salon.com
The Judiciary Committee Impeachment Panel gathered to 
hear evidence in the Watergate affair, eventually leading 
to the impeachment of President Nixon. From left to right,
Donohue, Rodino and Hutchinson.

On July 27, 1974, the House Judiciary Committee recommended
America’s 37th president,
Richard M. Nixon, be impeached and
removed from office.

The impeachment proceedings resulted from a series of political scandals involving the Nixon administration that came to be
collectively known as
Watergate.

Only three presidents in U.S. history have been impeached:
Andrew Johnson in 1868, Bill Clinton in 1998 and Donald
Trump
in 2019 and in 2021.
