Why Republicans MUST Subpoena Eric Ciaramella
2019-11-11
[The Federalist] Adam Schiff acted as everyone with a pulse believed he would. Late on Saturday he deep-sixed the rights of the accused. He trampled on the right of one to face their accuser. He hacksawed the fundamental rights of fairness, and again portrayed himself as some sort of omniscient being with final say.

So it was just Adam Schiff being himself.

The embarrassingly laughable ego-maniac that started this #fauxpeachment farce to begin with.

In releasing the letter to the ranking member of the House intel Committee he alerted the world that he would "disallow" witnesses such as Hunter Biden (you know, the guy named in the phone call at the center of this proceeding) and the "anonymous whistleblower" (the guy Schiff coordinated with to launch this circus).

There is zero reason to deny the minority party access to either witness. For if everything that Schiff is doing is on the up and up such testimony would add to the "transparent case," The case being that the president committed such heinously criminal acts that violate the conscience of the people who elected him that the only remedy remaining is to regretfully remove him from office.

Hearing from the witnesses‐if the case was legitimate‐would bolster majority party claims and truly set in play a test in the Senate for a Constitutional crisis of duty.

Of course the monkey-grinder dance routine from Schiff is perhaps the least legitimate undertaking in the people’s House in perhaps the history of the nation.

No one believes it’s serious.

#4  They can only subpoena those Schiff allows to be subpoenaed.
And charger's right - many Repubs also want Trump gone and will use any excuse they can find, as long as it is 'good enough' to keep them from getting primaried out.

#3  They want to get reelected, charger.

#2  This presupposes that Cong GOPers don't want Trump gone as much as the Dems do.
