John Kelly, who served as Trump’s chief of staff from July 2017 through January 2019, suggested Monday that he’d take Bolton’s word over that of his former boss.
“Glad you tuned in, Mr. President,” Van Hollen said in a tweet of his own. “Now that I have your attention, how about coming down to the Senate to share your side of the story under penalty of perjury?”Schiff resists GOP calls for him to testify and for the House to issue subpoena for Bolton At this juncture, Schiff said, if Bolton is not called by the GOP-controlled Senate, “the inference is that the president is guilty, and his lawyers are basically screaming to the rafters, ‘Our client is guilty, our client is guilty. We just don’t want the public to see any more evidence of it.’ ”
When asked whether he has documents ready to subpoena Bolton to testify before the House, should Senate witness negotiations collapse later this week, Schiff declined to comment.Schiff also sharply dismissed the suggestion, made by Trump’s allies, that he could serve as a witness in the impeachment trial, particularly if Republicans push for a “one-for-one” trade with Democrats where each party called a single witness.
“He has the nerve, the gall, the belief that he can deceive … when it has been revealed that Hunter Biden does have the eyewitness testimony and is willing to testify,” Schumer said loudly.“What did I say?” Schumer said, turning to Sen. Jack Reed . Trump attorney Alan Dershowitz’s presentation Monday night may have perplexed Democrats, but it gave some Republicans the framework they were searching for to dismiss Bolton as a potential witness, even if his account of Trump’s actions is 100 percent true.
Braun said he would probably submit a question for the upcoming question-and-answer portion of the trial “just to verify and get another opinion on what Dershowitz talked about.” The comment suggests that Democrats will not be willing to sign on to a notion taking root among some Republicans to secure Bolton’s manuscript for review and move to end the trial. The aide was among several who addressed reporters Tuesday on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.
Congratulations America! You finally have, after 300 years, Mad King Donald on the throne of your republic!!!
Please keep calling
McConnell and those Senators who have already stated their vote to not impeach, should be removed from the trial because they are NOT fair and impartial jurors. Real trials have witnesses and evidence. They use propaganda and can NOT afford to have the Truth come out.
so hunter Biden has to testify oh no
That's an interesting twist.
Ha! That’s what you get! senatemajldr
He doesnt have the votes to impede evidence in a trial. Poor turtle man.
