Answer:

The correct answer is A. The outcome of President Bill Clinton's impeachment was that the Senate found him not guilty of the charges against him.

Explanation:

Clinton's second term was particularly marked by the extensive media coverage of the sexual scandals in which he was involved, mainly linking him to White House Scholar Monica Lewinsky, a graduate in Psychology who had intimate relations with the president. On August 6, 1998, she became the first witness to refute the affidavit of a president of the United States, in which he denied having had sexual relations with her. The prosecutor accused the president of eleven serious crimes worthy of impeachment, for perjury, abuse of power and obstruction of the work of justice. On October 8, the Congress voted 258 to 176 votes in favor of the impeachment process. After a few months, Clinton admitted to having maintained an "improper physical behavior", although he denied having committed perjury.

On February 12, 1999, the Senate declared Clinton "not guilty" of the crime of perjury by 55 to 45 votes in favor, and of the crime of obstruction of justice with a tie to 50. For culpability, a majority of two thirds was required.

Although nixion May not have ordered the break in he did order a ?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:  a COVER-UP

Context/detail:

"Watergate" was the scandal in which persons working for President Nixon's reelection campaign committed crimes to spy on their opponents at Democratic party headquarters, and then efforts were made to cover up those crimes.  Nixon didn't directly order the break-ins and spying attempts, but he did order the cover-up of his administration's connections to those activities.

The first break-in attempt by burglars working on Nixon's behalf occurred  in May, 1972, as persons connected to the Nixon reelection campaign broke into the Democratic National Committee office in the Watergate complex of buildings in Washington, DC.  They were planting wire-taps on the Democrats' phone lines, and also stole copies of documents.  When the wire-taps didn't work properly, they broke in again (in June) to try to fix the surveillance devices, but they were caught.

Nixon's role in Watergate was especially in his efforts and those of members of his staff to cover up what had happened.  Ultimately, the Watergate affair brought down the Nixon presidency.  He resigned in order to avoid impeachment.  And the whole affair made Americans more distrusting of government.

Which of the following explains why it was diffuclt for jews to organize resistance against the nazi holocaust
Murljashka [212]
The deprivation of slum life and the continuing fear of NAZI terror made jews resistance very difficult and dangerous. NAZI had begun to practice it racial ideology where other races were looked down upon; the Jews were the primary target for NAZI. Jews were forcefully forced out of their civil jobs hence becoming the second class citizen.
