In the law, testimony is a form of evidence that is obtained from a witness who makes a solemn statement or declaration of fact.
You’re free to use any source you’d like.
You aren’t going to even get close to the Mendoza Line with those.

“the unreliability of uncorroborated confessions”
Uncorroborated statements are evidence sure. Just not reliable, substantial, or even convincing evidence. But you already knew that.
Agreed. We can’t spend precious money on background checks for SCOTUS nominees. Maybe we just have them sign a document saying they never raped anyone and not have anyone do a background check.
It isn’t. He learned it from his father. His father would break it out on Christmas to review the year and the memories of the year. It was a tradition worth continuing in the family. I rather like it.
