  Justice is never justice 
when the jury cares not for the facts

  Justice is never justice when the jury cares not for the facts. We must look at the Senate impeachment trial, and wonder if either side thinks the facts are relevant. The Republicans will vote to acquit, and the Democrats will vote to remove the president from office.
   No matter the facts.
   Facts might matter to truth. But they don't matter to an America divided by politics.
   Justice is never justice when facts just get in the way. If the Senate will not allow witnesses, what does that tell us?
   The vote will go down along party lines. Facts will have little to do with it. We won't determine what is right or wrong. We'll just verify that there are more Republicans than Democrats.
