The Senate *will* allow the use of video/audio evidence in the trial, per the unanimous consent agreement earlier today.

UPDATE: The Senate has *approved* the use of video evidence that Democrats were hoping for. This ensures Democrats can play videos of Trump and Mulvaney in their own words.

I know it has to be spelled out, "tables and chairs to accommodate an equal number of managers from the House of Representatives and counsel for the President," but wouldn't it be a hoot if the House managers went in one at a time to conduct a portion of the trial, thereby restricting the counsel for the president to just one at a time?
