What’s remarkable so far about an ongoing FX miniseries about the Bill Clinton impeachment saga is how accurately it portrays aspects of the legal cases.

My colleague Tiana Lowe has deftly limned how the series makes a lot of “thoughtful choices” about how to portray Clinton inamorata Monica Lewinsky and how obviously guilty Clinton was of “systemic sexual harassment.” Likewise, Impeachment: American Crime Story really does a good job of showing, in a way seamlessly woven into the narrative, that various aspects of the former president’s behavior really did appear to constitute, yes, crimes.
