Trump Trial: Judge Merchan won't allow certain Defense testimony

Merchan, just now, has decided that Trump's team can't use Brad Smith, an expert in campaign finance law, as a witness because it would "result in a battle of experts and confuse the jury."

He also isn't allowing in an email that was sent to Cohen to impeach his testimony, because it is hearsay, but allowed emails only sent to Cohen to be introduced as evidence for the State.

This is absolutely absurd.
