It doesn't really matter here, since Article III, Section 3, of the Constitution provides:
  • No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

Here there are no witnesses to any overt acts, just a guy with a bunch of handwritten documents that he says are accurate copies.

If the documents are accurate, they would, of course, be pretty damning.
