before the 2016 election the atlantic fiercely protested accusations of bias and said they were nonpartisan freethinkers, before endorsing hillary clinton
then they briefly hired and immediately fired Kevin Williamson because they were completely intolerant of his unabashedly conservative views, and now they've gone full blown reeeeee

If Obama had done some of the things Trump has, and acted in private and public the way Trump has, it would be a consensus view on the right to impeach him. No doubt about it.

Sure. For the right, it would be the consensus. But would it be the consensus view for nonpartisan entities?

The Atlantic is a left-leaning magazine... I missed the memo that they've claimed otherwise.

Let's not pretend anti-Trumpism is necessarily leftism though... I haven't read that article, but I'm guessing most of the impeachment worthy acts are not partisan policy issues.

They are indeed left-leaning, but claim to be unbiased, lol!

And when it comes to the impeachment-worthy acts and partisan policies: would all the left-leaning media outlets also call for impeachment if a left-wing populist president behaved in the same way Trump is doing, but was implementing a ton of items from the liberal wishlist, appointing a ton of liberal judges to federal courts, and so on?

We dont know for sure, but my guess is that the answer is 'no'. They would be finding excuses for the lefty President's erractic behavior because they like his policies, just light the right-leaning media atm is defending Trump's behavior.

Where did they claim to be unbiased?

I don't see all the left-leaning outlets calling for impeachment. I don't think the left is willing to accept a progressive Donald Trump... they have higher standards than the right-wing.
