The House does make its own rules and can impeach any way they want. The SC would never ever intervene in a House procedure. If you haven’t figured it out now, impeachment is a political process and no where does it say it has to be fair. It should be fair, but it isn’t. If the voters don’t like it, they can vote their reps out next November.
Impeachment occurs within the framework of the Constitution. In that sense it's a legal process.

The same applies in all legal processes. Doesn't make those processes not legal.
