Impeachment trials are different of course. The Chief Justice could rule that certain questions are out of order, but there is precedent that a majority of senators present may overrule him on that.


But I think all people of good conscience should acknowledge that it should EXIST and someone should tell the house majority!

The house plays the role of prosecutor.
The rights to call witnesses in defense does not kick in until the trial begins.
A wise prosecutor will question the accused informally and check in on any witnesses that the accused mentions, but these are matters of wisdom, not rights.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
