A Senate committee voted along party lines to subpoena documents and depositions from Blue Star Strategies, a consulting company that worked with Burisma when Hunter Biden served on board.

Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wisc., pushed for subpoena for Blue Star Strategies, a consulting firm with ties to Burisma, the Ukrainian gas company.Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wisc., pushed for subpoena for Blue Star Strategies, a consulting firm with ties to Burisma, the Ukrainian gas company.

Democrats on the committee said Republicans were chasing conspiracy theories and bolstering Russian disinformation efforts by using their power to investigate the Biden family instead of the government response to the coronavirus pandemic, which falls under the committee's jurisdiction. Sen. Gary Peters, D-Mich., the top Democrat on the panel, cited a letter from Blue Star Strategies that said a subpoena was unnecessary.

Where have they been for three in a half years. Sleeping. Or, is this a campaign dirty trick by repubs. Something they have become known for to divide Americans.

Just handle it like Trump, tell them no.

Am I the only one that confuses Senator Ron Johnson with actor William frankfather..

When the SenateDems take over subpoena every single present SenateGOP and see what monies they were paid by Russia....then arrest, try and convict them for the treasonous bastards they truly are.

GOP GOPChairwoman GOPLeader SenateGOP one of you shld have your staff read these comments? You shouldn't be surprised. SenateDems here's their investigation. Time to group up, a subpoena means nothing to Repubs. Not one Dem, Biden, Blue Star staff, nobody appears.

Can we get a two for one deal? Check the Trump kids deals as well?

Trump touched up his career. His career died.

Idiots

Morons everyone of them

Playbook dirty republican investigation games. They can only win by gerrymandering, cheating and waving false flags over and over and over again.

The Tea Party strikes again! Ron Johnson has no credibility....every stupid tactic that you in the Trump Party pull inspires us all make sure he is defeated in November....

Voted along party lines? You mean just like that Schiff show where they tried to impeach the President with no evidence of wrong doing? Sure does suck when Schiff's 50+ secret testimonies get released to the public and everyone can see what a big fat liar he and the dems are.

Why did the 6 DNC members vote against America?

Of course they did. The GOP is in as much trouble as trump.

Why did the 10 DNC members vote against America?

Good

SO

While almost 100,000 American lives have been lost, and as tens of millions are struggling to find food and work. These are GoPPriorities

But they have already complied multiple times. These guys are clowns

Deflect and divide.

Still at it.

Hunter Biden isn't a candidate.

SenRonJohnson is corrupt and will be held accountable by a Biden justice department and Wisconsin voters. VoteRonOut

Fucking clown show.

So not one Dem saw the merit in this? Pitiful.

Why are you not investigating All of the criminal wrongdoings by the sitting impotusWTF

Who cares.

Need to investigate the Trump kids for the same stuff.

Regardless of your party affiliations, you have to wonder how someone like Hunter Biden was able to get on the board of Burisma and Amtrak. Biden’s are obviously corrupt.

Anyone can do anything, I guess.

100,000 dead Americans. Sen. Johnson really is a coward.

of course they' re looking into these things now since elections are coming up.Just like the last election and what the republicans did to Hilary.

What's a subpoena?

This fucking guy

They trying... they really trying to get that guy re-elected...

Ron please come to Green Bay this weekend and meet the meat packers.

Boo! I don't care if nothing comes from it, I always believe in letting an investigation be run. We should strive to have a system, that accepts investigations can be made, and will often end up clearing people's names. Not one where people fear the spin of anything discovered.

Everyone should want to get to the true. Anyone not wanting the truth is hiding. Dems need to stay true to investigating possible wrong doing. Even if they are Dems. Let’s see if Dems are talk or really want to change government.

They should just ignore the subpoena. Donald is allowed to do it why not everyone else?

Heaven forbid the SenateGOP get distracted by that pesky pandemic.

They do know people are still dying because of Trump’s incompetence right?

JSmoke180 This is something to keep tabs on.

You can just refuse the Senate and their demands........just say no

Republicans are showing their true colors DESPERATE!!!

Democrats fear the truth because their platform is based on lies. The coming election will be glorious.

WOW that’s infinity more investigative journalism than you ever gave to one minute to the Obama administration.

Biden families made millions.

Seen this before. Waste of time. GOPCorruption

New stimulus package, not so much. But voting for these anti middle class economic terrorist makes people 'feel' safe.

So now the GOP is showing us examples of a real witch hunt.

When Trump Minions ATTACK!

Just ignore subpoenas that's what today offers. Fuvk em

More time should be spent on investigating your 'friends ' that are INSIDER TRADERS

I assume the firm will move to quash the subpoena because it does not serve a legitimate legislative purpose.

I hope they ignore the subpoenas like all the subpoenas issued by the Democrats were ignored.

This is not news.

Give it up already.

From our experience with the Trump impeachment with no one responding to congressional subpoenas we know that no one is required to honor a subpoena from the Senate.

Some super important things to focus on right now?!?

Meanwhile these two un-elected and manifestly unqualified drones have White House cabinet potions.

This is for Trump superfans. Good luck trying to get anyone else excited about this.

Why shouldn’t they play by Trump’s playbook, ignore all subpoenas. The House needs to immediately serve a shit ton of subpoenas if that’s how they wanna play. Start with Devin Nunez for his involvement in Ukraine

Of course they did, their Master told them to do so...

By the way Romney shows his normal self.

Who are the Repub senators on that committee who are up for reelection - any?

It’s funny that these firms were never subpoenaed in 2017,18,19 only now 🤔🤔🤔🤔

'You don’t have to be a card-carrying fascist to collaborate with fascists and help them seize power; you just have to be morally bankrupt and self-serving. '

All of a sudden Democrats and their zombies are worries. What do they want to keep hidden about the Bidens? Influence peddling can be a problem after Joe has been doing it for 40 years, like father, like son!

Just ignore them like Trump and his ilk do their subpoenas

All the GOP has to do is create an air of perfidy and their dead-from-the-neck-up base will run with it.

So the taxpayers who need the Senate help in food,shelter, health stimulus is watching the Senate chase what?

Isn't that exactly what they did to Trump during the impeachment? I mean we could have been concentrating on an incoming virus, that the leftist media said wasn't harmful, instead of false allegations.

I guess now we go from ObamaGate (1st time) to TrumpGate (part 610,246 and growing lies). And yes, that is a just a random number. I'm sure it is more.

Dems on the committee said Republicans were chasing conspiracy theories & bolstering Russian disinformation efforts by using their power to investigate the Biden family instead of the government response to the coronavirus pandemic, which falls under the committee's jurisdiction.

Congressional subpoenas are just a suggestion. They don’t actually have any weight or legal force.

The GOP is the enemy of the people.

You mean the Company that has cooperated all along?

Republicans have taught us that subpoenas have zero power and should be ignored.

Glad GOP has established that compliance with congressional subpoenas is optional.

lol This will go nowhere.

Can't wait to do Trump kids. 2021 will be extremely busy.

Benghazi part 2 except nobody will give a shit considering everything else going on

I guess Hunter can ignore all the subpoenas though.

Subpoenas can be ignored and no one cares, right GOP?

Trash.
