House Republicans add Hunter Biden, whistleblower to impeachment hearing witness wishlist
The Hill ^ | 11 09 2019 | Jessica Campisi

House Republicans plan to call former Vice President Joe Biden's son Hunter and the Ukraine whistleblower, among other witnesses, to testify as the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry into President Trump shifts to a new, public phase.

"Americans see through this sham impeachment process, despite the Democrats' efforts to retroactively legitimize it last week," Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), the House Intelligence Committee's top Republican, wrote in a letter to the panel's Democratic chairman, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), on Saturday.

He continued: "To provide transparency to your otherwise opaque and unfair process, and after consultation with [House Oversight Committee] Ranking Member Jim Jordan and [House Foreign Affairs Committee] Ranking Member Michael McCaul, the American people deserve to hear from the following witnesses in an open setting.”

In requesting testimony from the whistleblower whose complaint sparked the impeachment inquiry, Nunes said “Trump should be afforded an opportunity to confront his accusers,” especially with what he claimed were “discrepancies” between the whistleblower's complaint and witnesses’ closed-door testimony.

“It is imperative that the American people hear definitively how the whistleblower developed his or her information, and who else the whistleblower may have fed the information he or she gathered and how that treatment of classified information may have led to the false narrative being perpetrated by the Democrats during this process,” Nunes wrote.

Why can’t we just grab Adam by the ______ and slap him in prison? There is not one THING that pipsqueak has done during this fake impeachment that is remotely legal.

Really respect Nunez, Jordan and others for choosing to be good men fighting for what’s right.

They won’t get rich like RINO sellouts and other insiders through politics but they have Huge value the way they are.

And while this dreamy fun wish list is being compiled let’s also ask Santa to bring us a lot more decent, Constitution honoring Americans who will not calmly allow America to become a Communist state ushered in by arrogant Dems.

Around 50% in polls would allow a coup to oust a legally elected president because the media and Dems defame him, slander him and oppose him because they hate him?.

I do believe it won’t be long before Schiff for brains will wish he had been grabbed by the ______. If this impeachment witchhunt ever makes the Senate it will be hilarious to see Schiff himself called to testify before a Senate committee. About his own pre-involvement with the leaker.

Why only call Hunter? Call his daddy too. This kangaroo court is all about quid pro quo right? Who better to explain his involvement with quid pro quo than Joe Biden himself.

If nothing else, this forces Schiff to react, issue statements, and construct reasons why the whistleblower and Hunter shouldn't testify.

Make him defend his actions in the public arena.

Schiff....

On the morning national news they said Nunes demanded Schiff to be questioned in private about prior dealings with the “whistleblower”,

Next story was “Leading Republicans said off the record there is no real chance of that happening.”

FINE!

Dems skate, we go to jail if we break the law. The old term “justice” went out of fashion with tail fins on cars.

Of course the Ukraine story is much bigger than Hunter. The Bidens are the tip of the iceberg; billions have gone missing in Ukraine, and investigations have been shut down, not just the investigation into Hunter, but investigations into the missing money.

Please don’t be fooled by rigged BS push polls. There is NOT 50% support to remove DJT.

Shiff is a former US attorney-prosecutor.. if he would pull this crap with the President of the USA, think what this low life POS has done to poor ordinary citizens, just to get he convection rate up.
If I were a lawyer for one of Shiffs former “defendants” I appeal that conviction, based on his modus operandi

Folks....if Democrat Adam Schiff does not allow & require every witness that the Republicans have requested of him, to appear openly and testify and answer all questions from both sides...then I suggest that all Americans ignore and boycott the Hateful, Rigged, Biased, Unfair” Congressional, committee hearing!!! Case Closed!!!

Folks...”Ice” out the media by a TV/Radio boycott will do Mr. Schiff in, within a New York minute!!!

Does anyone here know why DOJ/ Barr has not been involved here with the appearance of Shifty involved in a coup with his collusion with witnesses, specific to these impeachment hearings? Also why do we have to wait for an IG report before we start seeing indictments? In the Mule head investigation there were all sorts of indictments way before his stupid report. So why does it seem the DOJ is all as$ backwards no that the investigation shoe is on the other foot? Can someone who has legal experience and knowledge please explain? Thank you.

" ... wishlist ..."

Because Justice means the fake accused are children who sit on Shiffy Clause's knee and beg for the gift of being able to defend themselves.

This whole thing is really quite disgusting. I'm getting the sense that whatever the dems say, this is going well into next year because it's the only thing they've got and they can't stop because then they'd having nothing - they have no policy, no candidate and nothing on Trump. Endless made up accusations based on architected and rehearsed gossip couched in a fake investigative structure in a secret room where the material is pumped through artificial processing and leaked to the press propaganda bullhorn is all there is.

Since it's all there is -> how can they end it before Christmas?

Pubbies need a. Ordinates response explaining that the whistleblower is not entitled to anonymity.

But we all know they won’t.
