In March 2019, appearingon MSNBC\u2019s Rachel Maddow Show, Nadler said of the investigation of former President Trump, \u201cOur job is to protect the rule of law in this country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In 1998, Nadler protected former President Bill Clinton after he was found lying regarding his affair with Monica Lewinsky. Nadler stated that the attempt to impeach Clinton was \u201cclearly a partisan railroad job.\u201d He&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/wp-srv\/politics\/special\/clinton\/stories\/excerpts121898.htm\">asserted<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"21\">\n<p><em>Perjury is a serious crime and if provable should be prosecuted in a court of law. But it may or may not involve the president\u2019s duties and performance in office. Perjury on a private matter, perjury regarding sex, is not a great and dangerous offense against the nation. It is not an abuse of uniquely presidential power. It does not threaten our form of government. It is not an impeachable offense.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The effect of impeachment is to overturn the popular will of the voters. We must not overturn an election and remove a president from office except to defend our system of government or our constitutional liberties against a dire threat. And we must not do so without an overwhelming consensus of the American people. There must never be a narrowly voted impeachment, when impeachment is supported by one of our major political parties and opposed by the other. Such an impeachment will produce divisiveness and bitterness in our politics for years to come and will call into question the very legitimacy of our political institutions.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The American people have heard the allegations against the president and they overwhelmingly oppose impeaching him. They elected President Clinton. They still support him. We have no right to overturn the considered judgment of the American people. . . . [T]his is clearly a partisan railroad job. . . .

I think it\u2019s very important that he testify before the American people, even if he doesn\u2019t say anything beyond what he said there. The attorney general and the president and others are lying all the time about what was in the report and it\u2019s very important that he, to the TV audience and to the American people \u2026 answer questions about it, even if there is no new information. \u2026 Most people are not going to read the 448-page report.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In June 2020, Nadler <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/nadler-calls-antifa-imaginary-former-antifa-member-blasts-only-thing-imaginary-is-nadlers-sense-of-justice\/\">slammed GOP members<\/a> of the House, stating, \u201cThey couldn\u2019t utter the phrase \u2018black lives matter\u2019 and could barely [broach] the subject of police reform. Instead, their&nbsp;amendments, I\u2019ve given you about half of them, just listed here, were arrant nonsense, off-topic, dealing with imaginary things like Antifa and completely negating the entire purpose of the bill.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jim Jordan, the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, infuriated, responded to Nadler, \u201cThey\u2019re not imaginary, they\u2019re real \u2026 To have the chair of the Judiciary Committee, on the House floor, say \u2026 these words \u2026 \u2018imaginary things like Antifa.\u2019 They are far from imaginary.
