Would a president be impeached if he has pardoned five high-ranking members of his administration who had been convicted and sentenced to five years in prison for bribery?
Most likely he would be implicated in the bribery and that would result in impeachment. Having 5 people in his administration charged with bribery would most likely lead right back to him.
