The probe focuses on roles that Obama administration officials might have played in the Trump-Russia collusion probe.

A Senate committee on Wednesday voted in favor of authorizing dozens of subpoenas and depositions as part of the Republican-led committee's probe into the roles that Obama administration officials might have played in the Russia-Trump campaign collusion investigation.

The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee voted to authorize nearly three dozen subpoenas and depositions, according to Politico.

However, the committee decided not to vote separately on whether to authorize a subpoena to U.S. Ambassador to Slovakia Bridget Brink as part of members' separate probe centering on the overseas business dealings of Hunter Biden, the son of 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.

Yawn.

Congressional subpoenas. Congressional hearings. Congressional Kabuki.

Yep. After they’ve had how long to destroy evidence and get rid of witnesses?

Look at the Calendar, figure it out.

Years have gone by, evidence gone, and the hope Biden’s DOJ is running things in 2 months.

All Fake.

I applaud their eagerness to get to the bottom of all of this...can’t wait for the results.

This would have made a difference in 2017 in conjunction with a Trump DOJ offensive against the coupists. Now it’s just campaign season CYA by the do-nothing GOP Senate.

Not 3 years late, but what good does it do?

Congress exposes “wrongdoings” and it goes nowhere. The media won’t report it, unless people are indicted.

And Congress can’t/won’t indict.

How many criminal referrals have been submitted to the DOJ by Congress?

How many have been indicted?

Doesn’t matter, it might take another couple of years...and Trump is about to get another 4

If Barr doesn’t get it done, Trump will replace him.

Republicans shift their chair-shaped asses in their seats and give the impression they are doing something. Must be after Labor Day in an election year.

Golly gosh! So bad these Sad Sacks waited four years to do this.

I swear, Republicans are our own worst enema.

Sorry bitt. All in CYA Mode. Nothing will be done. Subpoena(s) returnable when?

3 1/2 years after they already knew all the details. And obstructed all discovery.

That sends a strong message.

Ping me when “subpeonas” change to “indictments”. I’m bored of the questions. Git er done.
