2 Ways to Impeach

1. I see you’re a fellow man of culture, my preferred scent is is sharpie original

2. I don't see the contradiction from the witness you asked.

   She did not see the car 30s-1m before impact. But knows she saw it before impact. She doesn't know how long before by time. In court she was able to give an estimate of location she saw it (but not precise time before).

   So what is the contradiction?

3. I sure wouldn't trust a jury to pick up on these things. Average people are super dumb.

4. My question is why the hell was a dog driving a truck who he gave that dog his license.

5. When do you pursue anything against the witness? If their omission caused a case to move forward that shouldn't have, and now the person has racked up all kinds of legal fees which could have been avoided if the witness had not impeached themselves, who makes your client whole?

6. What day was it?
   Yes.

7. Knowing how unreliable human memory is, why is deposition considered superior to questioning/examination?

   It could be the case that witness remembered a detail that escaped them during deposition

8. I don't get the last part.

9. Hey Mike it might be an insignificant detail but can you explain why you emphasized the deposition you handed the witness was a sealed original copy? Is that just the proper process? Thanks!

10. I'd love to see more videos about legal strategy like this! Fascinating!

11. What this really drove home to me as a layman is that court cases, at least civil ones, are really decided during the deposition. That's when the "facts" of the case are really gathered. The case in court is really just an interpretation of those facts, what's most likely the truth based on what facts we know. I would assume a lawyer would want to prepare a client well for any deposition, as the facts from it will inform their case.

12. "The jury gets it." Nice assumption. In the medical field, the patient (or anybody we're addressing) is stupid and innatentive until proven otherwise. Are you not allowed to explicitly state that "the witness has contradicted himself?" In the era of Trump, I wouldn't make assumptions about people's ability to make logical conclusions.

13. I recently started undergrad & plan to go on to law school. This was very informative & well done! Love the content, keep up the good work!

14. Big scary lawyer: What day was it
    My nervous ass: yes.

15. At 6:17 this dude makes a train wreck metaphor and then acts as the conductor of a… symphony? Lol

16. I love this. What a great way to explain impeachment.

17. he to see the fate of the dog driver

18. Great stuff. You sound like a magician. "Sealed envalope"

    I'd love to see some crossover with you and LegalEagle.

19. Hey Mike, been watching your short form content for a while and just finished this. Phenomenal video! One of my favorite aspects to your long form content so far is the lack of some crazy intro or outro. You get straight into what the topic is, and when you’re done you’re done, no pitch or subscribe or whatever. I want you to know that as a YouTube addict I appreciate the no nonsense. Please keep the longer form stuff going, I absolutely love it!

20. Medium-length lawyering edutainment… I have yet to see something that fits this category and I am here for it. Keep up the good work.

21. Very insightful!

22. I can't think of the word "impeachment" without visualizing a peach pie. Politicians getting in trouble makes me hungry
