2. "holding MF45 to justice"

It is unlikely that impeachment will do that unless you have a rather broad interpretation of the word.

The primary goal of impeachment was always going to be political, as it's an inherently political process. The goal is to convince people to vote him out in 2020, because it's highly unlikely that he'll be removed by the Senate or resign.

As for justice, we have to hope that that comes after his presidency, in the form of state charges, etc. The DOJ certainly isn't going to do anything about it now.
