A White House official told CNN Monday that it would review Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) request to subpoena key former and current White House aides for testimony in the impending Senate impeachment trial.
The news came in while Schumer sat for an interview on CNN’s “New Day” Monday morning.
“Good,” Schumer responded. “It’s different than some of the tweets that just say ‘show trial,’ ‘everything’s perfect,’ et cetera.”

On Sunday, Schumer sent Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) a letter requesting a subpoena of four top White House aides: acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney and and his deputy Robert Blair, as well as former National Security Adviser John Bolton and Office of Management and Budget official Michael Duffy.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!
Yessiree bob. They’ll “review” it all right.
I didn’t relaize Schunmer was still on the job. He has to be the weakest Snate minority leader in US History…nice job allowing Trump and Moscow Mitch to ram rod all these unqualified right wing judges to Federal lifetime posts. If McConnell was the minority leader, he would have shut the government down to stop the Democrats from filling open judge positions. But no, Schumer goes along with Moscow Mitch and allows for incompetent and unqualified right wingers to get lifetime jobs.
Schumer…you need to retire and let a real fighter take over.
If I ever get audited by the IRS I’ll inform them I’ll give due consideration as to whether I’ll allow any agents or representatives of their agency to participate in the audit.
Well, if this isn’t an indicator that trump thinks he’s already been anointed king…
