Outside of court, however, the signed waiver sends a message that reverberates well beyond the halls of the Senate all the way to the walls of the Palace, rocking its self-proclaimed pillars of accountability and transparency. Amid the tremors, the President of the Republic, his appointees, and all his allies in all branches of government - all those that had initiated and supported the impeachment process in the name of good governance-- could no longer take refuge in the convenient excuse, "we are not on trial here." No excuse could be son simplistic; nothing as evasive; nothing, equally pathetic.
