Joe Biden Tag

Joe Biden was clear twice on the record in the past month that he would refuse to obey a Senate subpoena to testify at Trump's impeachment trial. There was no lack of clarity in the questions or Biden's answer. As documented in my prior post, Biden said it in an NPR interview earlier this month and again to the Des Moines Register yesterday.

There is no indication that Mitch McConnell and his Republican majority in the Senate are going to let the impeachment trial turn into a wide-ranging free-for-all. Democrats desperately want to try to rescue their woefully inadequate impeachment case by locating evidence outside the record on which impeachment was based. At the same time, some Republicans wish for the day they can get Joe Biden, Adam Schiff and other Democrats on the witness stand.

Is there something in the air? First Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi barks at a reporter. Now 2020 Democratic presidential hopeful former Vice President Joe Biden went ballistic on an audience member in Iowa who asked him about Hunter Biden's role at Burisma Holdings.

In a radio interview with WSAU Thursday, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee was asked if he would consider issuing subpoenas to the Bidens, Rep. Adam Schiff, Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee Chairman, and the whistleblower.
