A Senate panel votes to issue a subpoena as part of the GOP-led investigation into the Ukrainian energy firm that hired Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden

The subpoena is one of several steps Senate Republicans are taking to ramp up probes related to the Obama administration and Biden, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee who will likely challenge President Donald Trump in the 2020 election.The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee voted 8-6 to authorize the subpoena Chairman Ron Johnson requested for Blue Star Strategies, a US public affairs firm that worked with Burisma, the Ukrainian company which hired Biden.

"So, look: No matter what some Washington Democrats may try to claim, you are not crazy or a conspiracy theorist if you see a pattern of institutional unfairness towards this President," McConnell said."You would have to be blind not to see one."On Tuesday, Graham requested additional documents related to"unmasking" during the Trump transition.

And ........ Let the smokescreen begin!!!

By subpoenas you refer to the 'ignore them' precedent set by the administration? Expensive trash, all the resources used!?! Biggest gang of low life imbicilles ever!

If Biden & his son were involved with “illegal” oil business. It will pail, compared to “All” the illegal dealings the president has done.

They should probe the drug the president is taking and who has a stake in the company.

Lol

Another distraction

Is that the same panel looking into Trumps family ?

IgnoreTheSubpoena The Republicans ignored subpoenas from the Democrats so 'tit for tat'! KharmasABitch

Why are taxpayers on the hook for more political investigations so that SenateGOP can save face. Trump was impeached for Ukraine shakedown. Do they plan to use rudy to dig up information on Ukraine energy firm? Sick of the waste. VoteBlue2020

Get em

Funnaly good news from CNN

what happened to Obamagate?

So let's look into trumps kids and I all the nepotism in this administration!.

The Senate is as corrupt as Donald Trump.

1, 2 they coming for you, 3, 4 can’t lie no more, 5, 6 CNN is shit!!!!

Desperate to kiss Trump’s ...

Hope the subpoena is not honored, following trump's example.

Worm is turning !! Always does

Really we have a pandemic n this Potus is worrying about losing n election? Your gonna lose Donald bcuz your response to this pandemic n all the crap your pulling in between will b your down fall🤨I’m sureBiden would do a lot better than what you’ve done He couldn’t be any worse

Ignore it like Trump does.

JoeBiden Tell the Committee to go f**k themselves. They don’t answer subpoenas. We don’t either.

So full of it!

Subpoenas are now okay to ignore.

DISTRACTION!

I smell GOP desperation

MORONS.

Again political stunt to cover up his mess! Not this time!

Subpoena mean nothing now. Tell them to kiss your ass over this false story and pummel the hell out of trump with facts.

We will do this but not vote to give more covid money to people. Fuck off GOP

IGNORE THE SUBPOENAS!

Ignore the subpoenas like the Republicans did. GOPCorruptionOverCountry

No one has to comply with a subpoena anymore they didn’t when Congress was investigating Trump they can just refuse

About time

Need to also investigate Romney, Pelosi, and Kerry ObamaGateIsReal

One of the Republicans who voted for the subpoena Wednesday, Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah, still has reservations about the probe itself. Asked if he thought the investigation was political, Romney told CNN: 'Yeah, I do.'

These people how many times are you gop gonna cry about this trump tried to do it and failed, people need to notice how the gops like to do these thing but when the Democrats do the same there trump haters well we can call these gops Biden haters and disregard it too.

The Senate needs 2 subpoena TRUMP!! Why don’t they start their first after all he is the President! 75% of Americans were left in limbo during the impeachment because Trump locked up documents and blocked witnesses? Why? So, subpoena him so we can find out why he did this! 🙄🧐🤔

This really rich. The R’s blocked every single attempt at holding the most corrupt administration ever accountable, but hey, there is Biden’s son. What about Trump’s kids? What about Trump? The guy is literally running businesses out of and thru the White House. What a JOKE.

HUNTER 🇺🇦🇨🇳

So the company had already complied, and when you didn’t get what you were looking for you issue a subpoena!! Got it!!!

Why on earth are they doing this now!! They didn’t do anything for 3 years when they were in full power.. ? Couldn’t we call on investigations on everybody in american history and their family and friends?

Ignore any subpoena.

You mean a republican senate inquiry

As we all now know those subpoenas mean nothing and no one has to follow them.

Good. Hope Nancy agrees with this unfolding scandal.

I hope this backfires and shows the incompetence of republicans.

This is quite a shock that your Democratic owned news media would actual report on something that could ultimately hurt your beloved Party.

Let’s see. A Republican led senate approves a subpoena for the democratic candidate. Hmmm nothing odd about that is there senatemajldr considering we have an election coming up. NBCNews foxandfriends Wonder if realDonaldTrump has anything to do with it....nah. Cudnt be!

And CNN thought their 'Golden Boy' hasn't done anything wrong...

Ignore, ignore, ignore.

cnn pa attentiom to this stop being pc anti trumpers

Stupidity at its best

Now the tables have turned the Dems are up in arms taking cover under the the table - after wasting 3 years on haux collusion and couple of months on haux Ukraine call

The GOP has nothing better to do? They'd rather create an investigation out of thin air to help Agent Orange than help their own country. Wankers!

Do subpoena’s still mean something?

You reported real news Lol no way

This garbage again. Listen people--if you're not going to go after the hundreds of federal crimes Donald Trump and his regime have committed against the American people--then please spare us the fake outrage about the hoax against Biden. You're being CONNED.

About time!

If politicians children are being investigated, then look into trump’s too!

Americans are not able to pay their bills, loosing their jobs and going into depression. And the most important thing for the GOP is wild goose chase.

They set the precedent. No one should comply.

We will still vote Biden in and Trump out, even though Republican zombies are breathlessly trying to do the Dear Leader's bidding.

'But her emails. ' They're doing it again, folks. CNN are handing the election to Trump by playing along with his fake script.

This sh*t again. Wow you just waste tax money before elections again and again. This will turn up nothing and you already know that.

Dems

Sick republicans hoax. Impeach the damn fool would have saved 92,000 Americans lives.

This investigation is just a partisan effort to help Trump's reelection efforts! He’s so desperate that this facade is all he has to try and play dirty politics with. Anything to DISTRACT- VOTE TRUMP OUT!! donlemon realDonaldTrump

Where is Trump's son-in-law? Oh, he is producing medicine, how great he is!

Well that’s great news, now the Democrats can look into all of trumps kids. I hope they are ready cause they may be joining individual 1 on vacation soon!

Shitttttttttttttttttttttttttttt!!!

If they think this is going to distract voters from massive Republican corruption, they're even dumber than Trump looks.

Just ignore it like trump

Political persecution will be next, the Trump family is ruining this country and everyone is just watching them do it.

We are about to see a bi partisan consensus on subpoenas not being worth the paper they are written on.

Corrupt News Network

Now do these!

Abuse of power

Very sensible at this time with the TrumpDeathToll92K and counting, a POS-POTUS who suggests injecting Lysol, and more and more demanding that realDonaldTrump admit that he cannot even tie his own tie. Tie the tie, Tweety. TieCertificate 👔📺

Bravo

This is going to backfire bigley!😂

Benghazi 2.0 nobody is interested ps what office does hunter Biden hold🙄🌊🌊 Now lets to ivanka and jared

Well if they dig deep enough they might strike the earth's mantle before they hit gold or oil...

Well, the GOP and their accomplices feel free to ignore subpoenas, so...
