The investigation of Bill Clinton, by Ken Starr. which eventually led to Clinton's impeachment, lasted four (4) years. Now let us suppose that Democrats, who held majorities in Congress, at the time. had begun to pressure the Department of Justice, to remove Ken Starr at on the occasion of the first anniversary, of his investigation. Not the people, Congress or the Department of Justice would have tolerated it.
In its own way, that was a test of whether the people of the United States deserved to call themselves a "free people". We may face a similar test in our own time.
