By Katelyn Caralle, U.s. Political Reporter and Ariel Zilber and Leah Mcdonald For 10 November 2019:

Donald Trump accused Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff of being a ‘corrupt politician’ after the top Democrat said he would not approve the GOP’s requested list of witnesses for the impeachment inquiry.

‘Corrupt politician Adam Schiff wants people from the White House to testify in his and Pelosi’s disgraceful Witch Hunt, yet he will not allow a White House lawyer, nor will he allow ANY of our requested witnesses. This is a first in due process and Congressional history!’ the president lamented in a Twitter post.

Devin Nunes, the Republican ranking member on the Intelligence Committee, wrote a letter to Schiff last week requesting former Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden and the whistle-blower who sounded the alarm on Trump’s dealings with Ukraine, among others, testify as part of the impeachment proceedings.

Specifically, he asked Biden and the whistle-blower, previously anonymous and now revealed to be CIA agent Eric Ciaramella, be compelled to testify in public hearings. Schiff, who is leading the impeachment inquiry, says it won’t happen.

n continued defense of his correspondence with his Ukrainian counterpart, the president insisted on Sunday that his call with Volodymyr Zelensky was ‘perfect,’ and pointed to a transcript of the July 25 conversation, which he released in late September.

‘The call to the Ukrainian President was PERFECT. Read the Transcript! There was NOTHING said that was in any way wrong,’ Trump tweeted.

‘Republicans, don’t be led into the fools trap of saying it was not perfect, but is not impeachable. No, it is much stronger than that. NOTHING WAS DONE WRONG!’ he continued in a message to his own party.

Schiff, a representative from California, informed Nunes on Saturday that the anonymous whistle-blower, whose complaint sparked the investigation, will not appear for public hearings because their testimony is ‘redundant and unnecessary.’

The letter written by Schiff is a change in tone from earlier on Saturday, when the Democrat said that the committee he heads would ‘give due consideration to witnesses within the scope of the impeachment inquiry, as voted on by the House.’

‘The impeachment inquiry, moreover, has gathered an ever-growing body of evidence – from witnesses and documents, including the President’s own words in his July 25 call record – that not only confirms, but far exceeds, the initial information in the whistleblower’s complaint,’ Schiff wrote to Nunes, who is the ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee.

The whistleblower’s testimony is therefore redundant and unnecessary.

‘In light of the President’s threats, the individual’s appearance before us would only place their personal safety at grave risk.’

After the whistleblower’s initial complaint was revealed in September, it was a foregone conclusion that his testimony would be needed to proceed if the House intended to draft articles of impeachment.

But several witnesses who have since come forward to testify under oath before Congress have corroborated the whistleblower’s claims.

Earlier this week, Republicans said they wanted Joe Biden‘s son Hunter and the whistleblower to testify at upcoming hearings.

Nunes wrote to Schiff this week with a list of witnesses they want to see testifying so the President ‘can be afforded the opportunity to confront his accusers.’

At the top of the list, obtained by Fox News, is Hunter Biden, who has emerged as pivotal figure in the investigation as Trump demanded the Ukrainian government to investigate him over his business dealings in the country.

Burisma Holdings is the Ukrainian energy company where Hunter held a lucrative board seat while his father was vice president.

In his letter, Nunes wrote: ‘Americans see through this sham impeachment process, despite the Democrats’ efforts to retroactively legitimize it last week.

‘To provide transparency to your otherwise opaque and unfair process, and after consultation with [House Oversight Committee] Ranking Member Jim Jordan and [House Foreign Affairs Committee] Ranking Member Michael McCaul, the American people deserve to hear from the following witnesses in an open setting,’ he claimed.

Trump personally appealed to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to investigate Biden.

A whistleblower’s complaint about that call triggered the probe, which also focuses on allegations that Trump was holding up military aid to Ukraine.
Republicans had stated in testimony that former State Department official George Kent raised concerns about ‘the appearance of a conflict of interest stemming from Mr. Biden’s position on Burisma’s board.’

He added that Marie Yovanovich, the former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine, was prepared by the Obama State Department to address questions about Biden’s position on Burisma during her Senate confirmation process.

It has also emerged that the whistleblower, whose identity remains anonymous, has been asked testify publicly as part of the inquiry.

Donald Trump’s eldest son published the name of the alleged anonymous whistle-blower whose complaint fired the impeachment inquiry against Trump.

Amid calls by the president himself to expose the whistle-blower, Donald Trump Jr. tweeted the name of a CIA analyst that has circulated online for weeks, and linked to a Breitbart news article implying the person was pro-Democrat and anti-Trump.

hen he was Vice-Presiednt, Joe Biden urged the Ukrainian government to fire a prosecutor, which Trump and his allies have charged was done to benefit Burisma. The Bidens have denied this and there has been no evidence of wrong-doing on their part

The person named by that outlet is currently a registered Democrat but has previously registered as Republican; they have also been a CIA analyst.

In his letter, Nunes also wrote: ‘Because President Trump should be afforded an opportunity to confront his accusers, the anonymous whistleblower should testify.’

‘Moreover, given the multiple discrepancies between the whistleblower’s complaint and the closed-door testimony of the witnesses, it is imperative that the American people hear definitively how the whistleblower developed his or her information, and who else the whistleblower may have fed the information he or she gathered and how that treatment of classified information may have led to the false narrative being perpetrated by the Democrats during this process.’

Fox reported that Republicans also want to call Alexandra Chalupa as a witness.

She was a Ukrainian-American consultant for the Democratic National Committee, who allegedly held meetings with staff at the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington, D.C.

The claimed she is a ‘prime witness’ given Trump’s documented belief that the Ukrainian government meddled in the 2016 election to oppose his candidacy.

I LISTEN TO NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING any Democrat or liberal says because everything they have said either makes NO SENSE or is UNCONSTITUTIONAL. What’s the point of watching these hearings? THEY ARE GRAND-STANDING TO THEIR CONSTITUENTS.

That Hunter Biden is looks like a real creep. Like father like son. He’d do a great impersonation of Dracula.

Here we have it; the quintessential witch hunt, Soviet-style from those of the Democratic-Bolshevik Party. A Stalin-like kangaroo court in a feeble attempt to take down the President. This repugnant treasonous Party, daring to call itself the Democratic Party, is no more than a depository for old-style Soviet injustice. One can only muse that, in the end, it backfires and blows up in the face of this perfidious totalitarian bent Party.

Schiff and the other henchmen are a smarmy sort whose treasonous endeavors typify the Democratic Party’s base of corruption and treachery. There was a time when treason was a cause for hanging; unfortunately, it is deemed meritorious by the Neo-Liberals, a hybrid of political diktats of Marxism/Communism through to Fascism/Nazism.
Corruption and treachery run deep within not only the Democratic Party but the FBI, the DOJ, and other agencies.

The evil left sues over any little thing – why is the Right not suing the Satanists to stop this imbecilic nonsense?
Every law regarding false accusations, not allowing information and witnesses for the defense, even basic human rights is being broken by them.

I want the Russian radio talk show hosts that pranked Schitt to testify. He was knowingly colluding with Russian agents to get dirt on Trump. He thought they were legit, so he committed a crime.
