Subpoena Paul Pelosi to testify.
This is going to spin out of control just as the Rats and GOPe wanted. Of Course the GOP is not going to dismiss. The vote to condemn the House BS meant NOTHING.
But remember too that Democrats are hypocrites.
He’d just lie, like they all do.
The Deep State shall NEVER go on trial. This would imply they had some culpability, and people die before they would agree to reveal these perhaps earth-shattering realities.
If they are going down, they are taking EVERYBODY with them. Crash and burn is their exit strategy.
Trump has changed his mind at least once on this. It’s pretty clear McConnell wants dismissal without trial, but he doesn’t have the votes.
I thought that I had read, in this forum, that Burisma execs were invited to the House Impeachment Hearings, but were denied visas by the same diplomats that testified during the impeachment hearings.
Sadly, but true. However, throwing fresh meat that Hunter could be called may just chill some democrats - particulary that opens a lot of others to be brought forward for testimony that the left has desperately hid from view. turtle may be playing a version of "don't throw me into that briar patch" with Schumer, knowing full well schumer isn't dealing with a full deck.
Mitt and Nanzi have a son? Wonder what that musta been like... laying back, smoking a cigarette and stairing at the ceiling fan... a moment in time interrupted by that drunk giggling...
Could this be a threat to Nazi Pelosi to stay the HELL away from the Senate with those idiot articles?
I think so.
Trouble with this is.... I believe the Powers that Be have already concluded that Creepy Uncle Joe is already persona non grata.
Republicans in the House felt the same way, but were blocked by the majority from making theirs.
McConnell should pressure his members play by Pelosi rules and quickly dismiss this.
As a last resort, he should oppose reopening the investigation in the Senate and stick to only listening to the arguments already gathered in the House.
Anything else, and he's being played for a fool. He'd go down in history forever as the majority leader who allowed the first conviction of a President, his own party's President, and the tool of the destruction of his party.

At first Trump was EAGER to have a Senate trial. Many Trump tweets indicated he WANTED a trial so his side could be told.
Now he doesn’t want one?
Really this whole Schiff Show is NOT about Trump. This is a classic power struggle between the Rats in the House and the Repubs in the Senate.
If this impeachment was really about the president - he’d be gone by now. Pence would be in the Oval Office.
A low rent Beverly Hillbilly.
Sounds like a 1.5 million dollar in kind contribution for his influence on his dear old dad.
The Dem’s best strategy at this point is to not send the articles at all, and claim it was obvious that the senate wouldn’t give them a fair trial, and they can’t take their candidates off the campaign trail to play the GOP’s games.
Mitch needs to burn the house down. The Dems need to be taught a lesson.
Take the plow deep and expose all the corruption. Trump will never be convicted because it takes two thirds. Gag them on all of the dirt from Ukraine....the country needs to see it and hear it.
Any questions will be answered with I dont recall and that will be the end of it. The time for being nice has come to an end.
“Permission to treat Hunter Biden as a HOSTILE WITNESS, Your Honor?”
*SNORT*
ONLY if the calculation is that the GOP won't play hardball and call the whistle blower, Schiff, Hunter Biden et al.
How about Joe Biden? Hunter might have been the recipient of unearned $$$ but was a private citizen. His father, on the other hand, was Vice President and abused the power of his office.
I say call Joe Biden - he's no longer in office and doesn't have any excuse to defy a subpeona.
