Quote:Rule 802. The Rule Against Hearsay
Hearsay is not admissible unless any of the following provides otherwise:

a federal statute;
these rules; or
other rules prescribed by the Supreme Court.

this day is coming soon to a senate near you....

who'd a thunk DJT would have named Biden & son, whistleblower, and shifty shiTTT as the four he wants to see appear in a senate trial....

#aceInTheirArseholeBaby

the ding-dongs don't have an out either way it plays out in the house at this point....

I doubt it makes it to the Senate.. The Dems will stop because they believe the damage is done..

Exactly. This farce was initiated just for the Demoncraptic voters as if it was gonna do any good. Those people have already made up their minds on whom they will vote for, and there's no Republican in that list. They will stop just prior to a vote BECAUSE they know that if it goes to then Senate they also know it would make a stop on a dime thing, i.e., it wouldn't pass muster. Another thing, do you think BullShiff wants to be investigated and made to come in front of Senate questions. He knows he and his cronies that are implicated in the Ukraine corruption and would not want to be caught lying to Congress which would come to that. BullShiff has played his cards and he doesn't even have a pair of deuces.

This isn't a trial.

It will be....and when it is all the heresay witness's are eliminated. Additionally, expect the GOP to put Bidens corruption, the Hillary/DNC 2016 Ukraine Connection, and Obama Administration spy on trial as all of those issues are closely linked to the reason Ukrainian aid was being delayed and is part of the case. Such a trial on national TV will be absolutely disastrous to Democrat 2020 presidential hopes.

Given the way polling is rapidly moving against impeachment---Im convinced that Nancy is currently looking for a way to avoid impeachment---and yet still save face. Im thinking Fisheyed Nancy will say something along the lines of "The case against Trump is obvious. However, we know impeachment is divisive and will tear the country apart. Given that we know the corrupt Republicans in the Senate will refuse to acknowledge the obvious Trump wrongdoing---we see little to gain by passing an impeachment charge to this corrupt Republican Senate and will instead simply let the American people speak to his guilt a year from now in the election."

I guarantee you, the smart Democrats do not want a Senate trial.

I think you're right. The Dems don't want their Senator candidates tied up in a trial during the primaries, either.
