Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) revealed Saturday he has drafted motions to subpoena former Vice President Joe Biden, his youngest son Hunter Biden, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA), and the so-called whistleblower.
Hawley will attempt to force a vote on the subpoenas if the Senate approves additional witnesses and documents as part of the upper chambers trial.
The Missouri Republicans pledge mirrors one made by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), who earlier this month threatened to force a vote on subpoenaing Hunter Biden and the so-called whistleblower if Republicans grant the Democrats demand for more witnesses.
Hawleys motion is likely to be opposed by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who has come out against subpoenaing Hunter Biden over concerns that the move will extend the trial longer. He said:

Trump has a right to face his accuser, and his defense team should have an opportunity to cross-examined him.
The senators will not vote to call the whistle blower. “His life would be in danger.” (lol) They need to call the guys around him and the guy who’s testimony is still hidden in the SCIF.
Aside question. Will the witnesses be deposed in private first?
cross-examine him/her (the whistleblower).
He’s CIA and knows how to hide. No one knows were he is now.
whilst you’re exposing biden and his son, how about Pelosi and her son, Kerry and his son, romney and his son...
No witnesses. This has gone on long enough. Its a fake impeachment. Republicans are stupid and senators just want to be on tv.
RTFA!
ERIC CIARAMELLA..the name that must NOT be spoken....ERIC CIARAMELLA! ERIC CIARAMELLA!!! ERIC CIARAMELLA!!!!
ERIC CIARAMELLA!!!!!!! Ths fake whiztleblower!!
Maybe he’s blowing Shifty,a whistle!!
Lindsey is the King of Empty Promises.
He is hiding something and that is why he has done nothing while promising all kinds of action for many months. Nothing. No hearings, no oversight, and nothing of consequence.
I would love for him to prove me wrong, but until then, that will be his title.
They should, at the very least, subpoena the so-called whistleblower.
Trump has a right to face his accuser, and his defense team should have an opportunity to cross-examined him.
In his scenario, the known criminal in PDJT, the whistle blower is just a fine citizen reporting a crime. The police are the House Democrats. Only problem is the “bank robbery” is just a phone call, which rarely a crime. Nevertheless, this has been printed at least twice in the local paper, which is quite conservative.
Good. Lets see what Linda Graham does, as well as other RINOs.
Sundance of Conservative Treehouse opines that Mary McCord, former coup-plotting head of the DoJ’s National Security Division, is a linchpin of the impeachment conspiracy. Intel Community IG Atkinson was her legal counsel at DoJNSD. Now she is a lawfare queen of counsel to the House Democrats seeking impeachment. She possibly managed the players to contrive the complaint, and had Atkinson change the hearsay rules. The Senators should demand to see a full transcript of Atkinson’s testimony to the House Intel Committee (Schiff has suppressed it). If it says what some believe it does, call Atkinson and McCord to do some splainin’.
Yes.
Someone said the impeachment trial is not the best forum for bringing the bad guys to justice. But will the fickle American people (for whom I have less regard by the hour) in further investigations then say:
1)geez I'm really bored with all the investigation stuff now that it isn't Trump. Mueller,Schiff,Nadler, I'm bored.
2) those Republicans are really mean spirited and vindictive to try to get revenge for Trump being brought to trial. Media will push that all day.
But someone had better bring to justice Joe, Hunter,Comey,Clapper,Brennan,McCabe,Strzok,Page,Hillary and the others
Or.....it will prove crime pays (it does) and Dems skate while we face punishment and imprisonment under the law. Followed by "Why go on being a good little boy or girl when we don't get rewarded by mommy and daddy?"
If Durham and Barr let this glide past then what will happen in 2021 when Dems are unleashing hellish violence all over America because they lost and have hurt feelings?
As Mulder once said: "The truth is out there"... Followed by eternity at ground temperature...
No. Shut it down. Use a different venue to go after these bastards. Get the the stupid impeachment off the table then worry about them. Why cant these people see a what is obviously a rat trap.
I agree. No witnesses!
