House Dems won’t negotiate Hunter Biden’s testimony for other witnesses

“These two things cannot both be true. Is House Democrats’ case so “overwhelming” that it was enough to impeach a president? Or is their case so weak and incomplete that they need the Senate to redo it? They can’t even stick to one story,”

~ Mitch McConnell

Axios reports that the draft of the impeachment trial procedures includes a motion to dismiss that can be pulled at any time if the trial becomes too ridiculous. Unfortunately, the Senate’s weak link Republicans won’t go along with a motion to dismiss, at least not at this point.

A vote on whether or not to call witnesses will take place after the initial cases are heard from each side. The President’s counsel can call for the motion.

DEMS WON’T EXCHANGE HUNTER’S TESTIMONY FOR OTHER WITNESSES

Senator Josh Hawley said he worries that if Trump doesn’t have the option to move to dismiss or move to judgment then Adam Schiff would have too much control over the trial. He certainly will try to take over.

Democrats are bullying the Republicans, trying to convince them to call their new witnesses — only their witnesses.

Apparently, the Senate Democrats won’t negotiate Hunter Biden’s testimony in exchange for other witnesses. They want to run the entire impeachment trial.

Mitch McConnell won’t go for that.

If Senate Republicans don’t call the witnesses they want, the House Democrats might call them.

Republicans have several weak links to include Susan Collins of Maine, Mitt Romney of Utah, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Cory Gardner of Colorado, Roy Blount of Missouri, and Lamar Alexander of Tennessee. There might be others, but they have to be watched, and several are calling for witnesses.

The House Will Call the Witnesses

Rep. Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.), chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, vowed that Democrats will continue their Ukrainian investigation “if we’re feeling that we’re being played and that they’re not being forthcoming with the truth.”

“We’re not going to just say, ‘OK, we’ve disposed of it and now the ball’s in their court and there’s nothing left for us to do.’ I think quite the contrary,” he asserted. “The more we hear, and the more things come out, the more resolute we are to make sure that we’re dealing with the truth, and that it’s not being swept under the rug.”

Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.), a member of the Judiciary Committee said, “We would be remiss in the House of Representatives not to follow this trial to its conclusion. And Parnas has emerged as an important figure in this criminal conspiracy to force or coerce a foreign government to help Trump’s reelection campaign.”

Parnas is a joke. He has zero evidence.

The impeachment is never-ending and Democrats are determined to keep it going. There is nothing fair about what they are doing.

What is the HOuse going to do with new witnesses? Send up more ‘evidence?’ Impeach the President for something else? This is harassment.

LINDSEY GRAHAM UNLOADS

Senator Graham (R-SC) unloaded on Speaker Pelosi who “orchestrated the church of Holy Hell.”

Can you subpoena a witness out of the detox center?

Although I like McConnell’s bravado…he can’t stick to one story either. First he promised instant acquittal…then the Left punked him into downgrading to instant dismissal…then they punked him into capitulating to a trial. So…my faith in Mitch is less than comforting…

The senate is littered with anti-Trump RINOs, inserted and fully supported by the Mitch RINO gang. The guilt here lies with the “leadership”. Get ready for another huge mess in the senate. Mitch conceded to the dems so many times during the Kavanaugh hearings, because of the RINOs he supports. Of course the dems can get more concessions from Mitch, he has been giving them that for 5 years. A truly conservative party would not have a coward like Mitch as a leader.

And Graham’s rhetoric is produced only to get him votes and to further his pretense of being a Trump supporter & interested in justice. He has spent the past 3 years blocking investigations. This is a clown show in which the republicans have no decent people in leadership positions to help Trump. Sure, Mitch & Graham will vote against conviction, buy only to save themselves. The entire congress is a disgrace dragging Trump through the mud because they are upset that their precious corrupt DC is threatened by an outsider.

How many times has Graham “promised” investigations. You can always tell when it’s election time for Graham.

Hunter should be called as a witness at his bribery and extortion trial. He would be if there was truly Equality Under The Law. There ain’t.

You don’t negotiated with sleaze that lack basic morals, you tell them how it’s going to be.
