Biden, son could be forced to testify in Trump impeachment trial
2019-10-08
[Washington Times] Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden and his son Hunter could be forced to testify if the Senate ends up holding an impeachment trial of President Trump, say congressional aides who questioned whether Democrats have thought through the full implications of their impeachment drive.

Not only could Mr. Biden be forced to be in D.C. at a critical moment in the presidential campaign, but so could many of his chief rivals ‐ the half-dozen senators also vying for Democrats’ presidential nomination, impeachment experts said.

For that matter, if the House chooses to impeach Mr. Trump on charges stemming from the special counsel’s Russia investigation, aides said it could open the door to witnesses such as fired FBI Agent Peter Strzok or even major figures from the Obama administration.

Mr. Trump could even be present for the entire spectacle. Experts said the Senate would have a hard time refusing him if he demanded to confront the witnesses against him.

"I don’t think the Dems have thought this through at all," one staffer told The Washington Times.

#3  I don't think the House Dems want a real impeachment since it would shine the spotlight on the Dem corruption and illegal activities in Ukraine as well as at home. They just want to have the illusion of an impeachment and drag it out to election time if they can. They don't want the Biden stuff to come out. One of Hunters partners in his Ukraine business was Whitey Bulger's nephew. The DNC's role in Ukraine would come out as well as Obama's role in this corruption. NancyPs son seems to have had some role in Ukraine's energy industry also.
