One my my liberal acquaintances said that "evidence revealed after a trial opens is always admissible in a court of law, so why not here?"
What should I tell her?
Its not a court of law!
This is not a judicial proceeding but a political proceeding.
STFU?
;D
Evidence obtained through your own investigation during a trial would be admissible. But you cannot compel additional discovery from the other party once the trial has started. The democrats are issuing subpoenas for documents that were not requested during the impeachment hearing. They are trying to get the Senate to do what they failed to do. The demand for additional records or documents should be dismissed by the judge. Roberts would not allow this in any court in America.
Discovery is closed the second the jury is sworn.
Tell her THIS is not the same as a court of law and has it’s own set of rules to follow.
They are the same rules that were used in the Clintoon trial.
If it was good enough for Clintoon....
