Lindsey Graham and Ron Johnson pass on subpoenaing Hunter Biden - for now
Washington Examiner ^ | 11/01/20 | Jerry Dunleavy

Posted on 11/01/2020 4:34:57 PM PST by Libloather

Two Republican Senate chairman said on Sunday they will not at this time subpoena Hunter Biden to ask the son of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden about his family's foreign business dealings, including with shady Chinese businessmen.

Appearing in the first of back-to-back interviews on Sunday Morning Futures on Fox News, two days before Election Day, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham deflected by saying the matter falls under the jurisdiction of Senate Homeland Security Chairman Ron Johnson. When Johnson appeared minutes later, the Wisconsin Republican said he wanted more documentation and witness interviews before seeking a subpoena.

Both senators were pressed on the Hunter Biden story, which has raised questions about the possible role played by Joe Biden as he vies for the White House, by host Maria Bartiromo. One of them, Graham, is up for reelection this year.

“What are you going to do, Sen. Lindsey Graham, in terms of holding people accountable? Will you subpoena Hunter Biden? Bottom line,” Bartiromo said to Graham.

**SNIP**

“I’m going to have a hearing with the FBI about why did you sit on the laptop so long? What you see from the business partner of Hunter Biden is corruption at an industrial scale - influence peddling," Graham added.

There is no blackmail required with Linda for him to play for Team China. Trillions of dollars are to be made by GOP donors on globalist trade deals like the one POTUS sunk: TPP. So Grahamd does there bidding.

The Republican Senate called (subpoenaed) Don Trump, Jr.
For over 30 hours of questioning, under oath.

But, the same Republican Senate refused to call Brother James or Hunter.

The GOP Senate dragged Don Jr. before them TWICE to testify. Meanwhile, they never lifted a finger to gather facts on the hoaxblower who launched an impeachment against a POTUS from his CIA desk in Langley.The ongoing coup against POTUS is provably bipartisan in nature.

They showed photos of what looks like a White Toyota Venza that they claimed was side swiped and damaged by a black truck in the Texas Trump train. My interpretation is that the white Toyota was attempting to push truck into Biden bus. Watch this video and give your opinion. https://twitter.com/i/status/1322546782572859395

“IF Graham is this useless two days before he is on the ballot just imagine how bad he will be when not up for 6 years.”

Graham inherited the knife McCain used to constantly stab President Trump and other Republicans in the back. He tilted to Trump at the beginning of the year in order to win the South Carolina primary and win reelection. If he is reelected next week he will immediately return to openly stabbing Trump in the back. If he loses his reelection campaign he’ll get a pundit job on one of the news networks and use it as a platform to knife Republicans.

Politicians always tilt toward the voters at election time and then revert to form after the election.

You know how this works.

When the Senate shakes out, if there aren’t enough Votes, old Lindsey will be on TV screaming Hunter must be brought to Justice.

Lindsey’s - Protect the Club at all costs, while acting on TV - style is better suited to the minority. If he yells now, someone will say, well, what’s stopping you?

Lindsey slow walked the Coup investigation into the next Admin or Term.

He protected Hunter and prevented him from being subpoenaed.

He threatened Trump with Impeachment if he fired Mueller, sho he still defends, and promised “Holy Hell,” if Sessions or Huber were Fired

Obsma-appointee Fraud Huber sat on the Coup Investigation for almost two years, why is there no interest from the Republicans why he did that, and who directed him to do that, and why does he still have a job? Sessions/Fraud Huber blocked a Special Prosecutor that could have exposed the Swampers, and brought down the Conspirators.

If you haven’t figured it out, Sessions, Huber, and IG Horowitz were doing what the Powerful Senators and Corrupt Generals wanted them to do.

Presidents come and go, but these people wield power for 30 years.

The only things I want Graham and Johnson to “pass” on right now are turds and spoiled milk.

My new Trump Winner sign, “Make Subpoenas Available Again”.

The magic negro weaponized the entire federal gub mint by placing his minions in all high positions.
FBI, CIA, Justice dept. all worthless.
You don’t think Comey, the Clintons etc are crooks?
And the FBI an Justice Dept FAIL to do any damn thing but hells bells, you drive a Pickem up truck bearing a Trump flag and the worthless FBI investigates?
Worthless mookabooker even got rid of many of our high military leaders and replaced them with his lackeys.
The Donald needs to clean house after he WINS big.

They’re in it up to their eyeballs.

If ever there was a case for term limits, this is it.

The entire District of Columbia should be wrapped with crime scene tape.

If President Trump wins, we still have hope for a cleanup.

If not, we’re screwed. Totally screwed.

Don’t really care if he’s called. These congressional hearings are puppet theater and do nothing. Aside from sound bites, what has come of any of them in the last four years?

The only hearing I want to hear is courtroom testimony in a criminal case, and unless Trump makes some drastic changes in his second term, those will continue to be a joke as well.
