Impeachment of Andrew Johnson - Johnson was Appointed Military Governor

Time: 1865

Place: Washington D.C., U.S.

Details: Then after several states left the Union, including his own, he chose to stay in Washington (rather than resign his U.S. Senate seat), and later, when Union troops occupied Tennessee, Johnson was appointed military governor. While in that position he had exercised his powers with vigor, frequently stating that "treason must be made odious and traitors punished".
