When was the ‘First
Time’ you know at a ‘Federal Criminal Trial’ that the ‘Prosecutors’ are not
allowed to call ‘Witnesses’?
(Somebody who gives
evidence after seeing or hearing something)?
'Would Never' come
to mind?
Well this is just
what ‘McConnell & trump’ are trying to pull in this
‘Federal Criminal
Trial’!
The House
(Prosecuting Attorney’s), should never go to trial without their ‘Witnesses’!
(A prosecutor is a
legal representative of the prosecution in countries with either the common law
adversarial system, or the civil law inquisitorial system.
The prosecution is
the legal party responsible for presenting the case in a criminal trial against
an individual accused of breaking the law. Typically, the prosecutor represents
the government in the case brought against the accused person).
The House of
Representatives can only (make formal charges against)
and Article I § 3
The House
(“managers,” the prosecuting attorney) then must go to court (The Senate), to
try the case!
Article I § 2 of the United States
Constitution
the House of
Representatives the sole power to impeach (make formal charges against) and
Article I § 3 gives the Senate the sole power to try impeachments.
Article II §
4 of the Constitution
provides as follows:
"The
President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be
removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or
other high crimes and misdemeanors."
In a Senate
impeachments trial which congress in the prosecuting attorney?
A committee of
representatives, called “managers,” acts as prosecutors before the Senate.
The
Senate sits as a High Court of Impeachment in which senators consider evidence,
hear witnesses, and vote to acquit or convict the impeached official.
In the
case of presidential impeachment trials, the chief justice of the United States
presides.
Thus, the operative
legal standard to apply to an impeachment of a sitting President is
"treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."
