    But... it's wrong to investigate (Democrats) when they're running for office.

    Great.

    So anyone subpoenaed should just follow Trump's Sterling Civic Example and Ignore the Subpoenas and Stonewall?

    Cool.

    Good... now Mitt's wife can be released.... I'm sure he missed her....

    Mitt got the assurances he needed that this wouldn't go public...

    Of course, he was lied to, but it was good enough for him to go down this rabbit hole.....

    They are light years away from Joe or Hunter Biden with this subpoena, BTW...

    It's wrong for the President (up for reelection to that same office) to be involved... If a Senate Committee thinks there is reason to do an investigation, even a partisan one, fire away...

    Sure.

    And, as of now, it only involves documents.

    I am sure if Romney thought that a call for witnesses was politically motivated he could change his vote.

    I wonder why Romney would want to deflect our attention away from Barr and Durham?

    Republicans, please, please, please go down this rabbit-hole while the pandemic rages. Are you guys TRYING to destroy your party? Does the GOP have some weird political death wish?

    If Biden isn't dirty the investigation won't hurt him but we all know he is.

    Year before last Biden made his infamous claim of witholding funds.

    "Nazar Kholodnytskyi, the lead anti-corruption prosecutor in Lutsenko’s office, confirmed to me in an interview that part of the Burisma investigation was reopened in 2018, after Joe Biden made his remarks. “We were able to start this case again,” Kholodnytskyi said."

    If he has Executive Priviledge, sure. You know, what the courts just upheld when it came to McGhan.

    They're only allowed to do investigations on their own party? Glad you agree the shampeachment was partisan.

    If they are the President and have executive privilege and the person being subpoenaed falls under executive privilege or if the person being subpoenaed is the attorney of the person being investigated. You didn't know that?
