On top of everything else, Senate Republicans are now guilty of jury tampering. As Jill explains in her post, three Republican U.S. Senators met with Donald Trump’s defense attorneys yesterday to discuss the their strategy on the day before the defense attorneys present their case to the “impartial” jurors of the upper chamber.
What? Members of the jury holding a strategy meeting with members of the defense team in the middle of the trial? I’m no constitutional scholar, but isn’t that, like, illegal? Or if not illegal, it must certainly be unethical, right?
Anyway, Jill says it all much better than I ever could….

Jill wrote a great post. I’ve been following along from afar. it’s a sad situation because it looks as if the Republican Senators had already determined how they would vote and that they won’t let even the most compelling evidence change that.

I wish there could be a real criminal trial with witnesses and an impartial jury.
