A House Republican is pressing Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) to subpoena the call records of top Democrats and a whistleblower lawyer, signaling a new GOP line of defense amid the impeachment inquiry examining President Trumps ties to Ukraine.
Rep. Jim Banks (R-Ind.), one of Trumps House allies, asked Graham in a letter Wednesday to subpoena AT&T for the call records of House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden, as well as the attorney for Ukraine whistleblower, Mark Zaid.
Chairman, I urge you to utilize your subpoena power as Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and obtain call records for the following individuals: Rep. Adam Schiff, The whistleblowers lawyer Mark Zaid, Former Vice President Joe Biden, and Hunter Biden, Banks wrote to Graham.
This quixotic impeachment inquiry must be shelved, Mr. Chairman. And Rep. Adam Schiff should be held to the same standard to which he holds others. It is time to see his phone records, he continued.
Banks framed his request as an act of transparency, arguing that the public should know with whom Schiff worked to coordinate Democrats impeachment inquiry.

Remember that linda is up for reelection in 2020.
Remember also that linda is writing a Red Flag bill.
Linda talks tough but never delivers.
Ah, ah,ah....play nice now. It would be a terrible mistake to take the same road that is narrowing on them so they can open a thread for the conservatives displaying their idiocy. Just stay judicial, not revenge.

That's very true. I'm keeping a list of linda's unfulfilled promises. I'll post the list here eventually.
sounds like some good ideas, but would have the most impact at a Senate trial ...
It sounds great. But someone like Schiff probably made a lot of his calls on burner phones.
And Graham will say “Ya know I would like to, but I dont think its the right thing to do” just watch, that is what he will say
Im interested in seeing texts, etc between Schiff and Ed Buck and Dr Bruce Hensel, who was recently arrested for soliciting a 9 year old girl for sex..Schiff and Hensel are good friends..and according to Hensel’s neighbor, he would frequently take trips to Thailand, gee I wonder why..wonder if Schiff went too
Courts will quickly and decisively rule it is an illegal invasion of privacy and unconstitutional to do that./S
Good point.......Taxpayers demand to see all correspondence, emails, snail mails, hard drives,
wire-transfers, text files, offshore banking activity, and the like.
And based on the knowledge that elected members NEVER use their own money for anything, THE TAX DOLLARS KEEP ROLLING IN.
Demand to see govt reports of all tax dollars outlays to Schiff, Biden, and everyone employed in their offices.
DEMAND CONGRESS SEND YOU ALL AVAILABLE GOVT INFORMATION
specifically govt vouchers submitted by Schiff, Biden, et al:
<><> credit cards,
<><> gift cards,
<><> cell phone/landline bills,
<><> electronic/wire transfers,
<><> detailed expense accounts,
<><> transportation expenses
<><> office expenses
<><> office equipment expenses
<><> office supplies,
<><> unusual stamp purchases (a classic govt corruption MO)
<><> housing allotments,
<><> clothing allotments,
<><> entertainment including
<><> household help,
<><> reimbursements for varied business interests.

“Quixotic impeachment inquiry..”
A respectful reference to “the Knight Errant,” and an accurate comparison to the whole shitt show.
Good on yer!
Lindsey has his post-Trump-removal position locked in, he isn’t going to do anything to jeopardize that!
He’ll add that Schiff and Biden are his “good friends”, and he doesn’t want to upset their friendship.
Maybe if you and others here stopped calling him Linda hed improve. Youre going at this the wrong way. Graham has been one of Trumps firmest allies in this, dont dissuade him.
I see him on Hannitus Interruptus all the time. He is always talking tough about what he is going to do .....next week.
Please let me know when linda actually does what he says he will. Thanks.
I had heard about the Buck thing... but never about a 9 year old... Or Hensel... is he another big donor to democrat 'causes'...
McCain never came around, no matter how many times people foolishly re-elected him.
Skunks do not change their stripes.
Grahamnesty is still fully committed to amnesty and a permanent Democrat majority. For his friends, who are all across the aisle.
“For one thing, many of my phone records would be protected by attorney-client privilege”Zaid said in a statement to The Hill.
The call records, obtained by Democrats who issued a subpoena to AT&T, “Rudy Giuliani, Trumps personal lawyer”
Does anyone see the double standard here?
Graham has been one of Trumps firmest allies in this, dont dissuade him.
LOL. That’s a breathtaking statement given Graham hasn’t done a single thing of substance to support POTUS against the ongoing coup. In fact he enabled the coup by among other things publicly threatened POTUS not to fire Sessions. Beltway lifers don’t change their spots. Ever. Sorry.
