Impeachment is an indictment

No one gets to call witnesses in defense before being indicted

The members of the grand jury are allowed to call witnesses and issue subpoenas to compel their appearance. Here, the majority of the House refused to allow the minority to call its witnesses. So, if Mitch was really being fair, he would apply the same rule in the Senate - only the majority party may call witnesses. But he's actually being nice and allowing both sides to present evidence if they get past the motion to dismiss stage. Very generous of him!
