In this video, I go over the implications of Presidential immunity and the history behind it. Sorry, my notepad notes didn't capture, so I'm going to paste them below so you can read along, along with the links of where I got them.

Federalist No. 39
The Conformity of the Plan to Republican Principles
For the Independent Journal.
Author: James Madison
The President of the United States is impeachable at any time during his continuance in office.
Federalist No. 69
The Real Character of the Executive
From the New York Packet
Friday, March 14, 1788.
Author: Alexander Hamilton
The President of the United States would be liable to be impeached, tried, and, upon conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes or misdemeanors, removed from office;
and would afterwards be liable to prosecution and punishment in the ordinary course of law.
The person of the king of Great Britain is sacred and inviolable; there is no constitutional tribunal to which he is amenable;
no punishment to which he can be subjected without involving the crisis of a national revolution.
Federalist No. 77
The Appointing Power Continued and Other Powers of the Executive Considered
From the New York Packet.
Friday, April 4, 1788.
Author: Alexander Hamilton
To the People of the State of New York:
The answer to this question has been anticipated in the investigation of its other characteristics, and is satisfactorily deducible from these circumstances;
from the election of the President once in four years by persons immediately chosen by the people for that purpose;
and from his being at all times liable to impeachment, trial, dismission from office, incapacity to serve in any other, and to forfeiture of life and estate by subsequent prosecution in the common course of law.
The Constitution
Article I
Section 3
The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation.
When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside:
And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present.
Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor,
Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.
