Judge Kiley presses the Trump campaign: Their solicitation of witnesses produced sworn affidavits that his own investigation determined were "clearly false," "spam as you put it." The ones they could not prove were false, they submitted to the court. Trump camp: "Correct."

Judge Kiley: "This is concerning." "How is that a reliable process of gathering evidence?"

Kory Langhofer That's the name of the Trump campaign attorney insisting that those form-produced sworn affidavits are somehow reliable even though a subset of them were false. Because the form had a CAPTCHA.

Langhofer insists: "We've excluded everything that has the indicia of unreliability." Judge Kiley responds: That's not an indicia of trustworthiness of the remaining affidavits. That just shows you can't disprove what's asserted.

Judge Kiley grants the motion in limine excluding the dodgy exhibits.
