Lindsey Graham Will Oppose Republican Subpoena of Hunter Biden in Impeachment Trial
GP ^ | January 24, 2020 | Cassandra Fairbanks

Posted on 01/24/2020 1:03:01 PM PST by Hojczyk

According to a report from The Hill, Graham said that if his Republican colleagues introduce a motion to subpoena Joe Biden’s son, he said “I vote against it.”

The Hill report adds, “Graham’s opposition essentially kills the threat that Republicans have wielded in recent weeks that if Democrats win a motion to hear from additional witnesses such as former national security adviser John Bolton and acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney, they will retaliate by subpoenaing the Bidens.”

Graham claims that the impeachment trial, which centers around a call about the Bidens, is not the appropriate venue to look into their corruption.

“I don’t want to call Hunter Biden. I don’t want to call Joe Biden. I want someone to look at this when this is done,” he said Friday. “To my Republican friends, you may be upset about what happened in the Ukraine with the Bidens but this is not the venue to litigate that.”

Its one thing to say “no witnesses or all witnesses.” It’s another to say “Not the Bidens” without saying “nor anyone else for either side.”

I’m not sure which Graham means.

I agree with Lindsey. The Bidens are distractions and really will not help the President right now.

so now we know that Linda is connected to ISIS and
“noname” through Ukraine, and wants to cover that
up (to protect himself and the Democrats).

Shouldn’t Hunter be central to the trial, since the Democrats have made their charges all about Trump’s treatment of him?

Agreed, ZERO or two Bidens.

Flimsey needs a primary opponent.

Been needing replacement since his first amnesty vote in 2006.

Now he has THREE, no reason to give him a chance at FOUR.

They only have to pass one for us to lose our country.

Particularly when his testimony would probably consist of "I don't recall".

Friend of McCain. Up to his eyeballs in Ukraine. Linda is probably hiding kickbacks to his defense industry pals.

Ukraine is an ATM of corruption for neocons and dems.

Linda wants to get to the bottom of the Biden corruption just as soon as the impeachment business is concluded. Ya, Right.

You do understand that once this is dismissed in the senate that the President can direct HIS DOJ to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate no?

Right now the President can not, nor should not, do that.

That would in fact force Graham to toe the line in committee.

Actually, the Dim premise is that a Ukranian investigation would have found corruption, as that is the only way it would impact the election.

Linda’s motivation is not pure but any Hunter witness trade is a trap. No more witnesses. Shut this BS down and go home.
