    It seems the so-called Republican Senator from North Carolina, one Richard Burr has decided to go with the Democrats and keep the Russia hoax going by issuing a subpoena to Donald Trump Jr. to appear and testify once again before his Senate committee. This is happening despite the agreement that was made between Burr and the Presidents son that he would only have to testify once before his committee which he did in 2017. Senator Burr has been roundly condemned for this action by many leading Republican Senators, including the Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell who recently declared the Russia hoax claim "case closed".

    McConnell simply needs to remove him from the committee.

    But he doesn't have the guts.

    ???

    "There are numerous media reports about the Senate Intelligence Committee filing a subpoena for additional testimony from Donald Trump Jr. However, there’s something a little, well, ‘off’ about how the story is being presented…. zero official verification.

    Without any verification, and with only vague references to anonymous sourcing, CTH would advise to wait-and-see on this one. DJT-jr has been used more than once for leak hunting. The AP Article is HERE. That said, Trump Jr. did retweet this message:

    Senate Intel Committee Subpoena’s Donald Trump Jr.?…
    ------------------------------------

    McConnell: ‘The Case Is Closed’ and ‘I Understand’ Trump’s Frustration with Don Jr. Subpoena – It Will ‘Have a Happy Ending’

    "...this is going to have a happy ending...” ???

    This seems to be the problem with MOST Republicans - Gutless.

    I think the prime example was the previous AG who hid in his recusal mousehole while the POTUS was daily raked over the coals by The Ministry of Truth (MM/CNN), Dems, RINOs, RATS, Nevertrumpers and NeoCons just to name a few.

    So, someone explain this comment from the list below the article:

    I think Burr is operating at Mitch McConnell’s direction. McConnell wants Trump to back off China. After reading Secret Empires by Schweitzer, McConnell owes his wealth to the Chao’s and the Chao’s like to do business in and with China. Why does Elaine Chao’s father elect to have his ships built in China and not his adopted Country the US. Always look for the misdirection.​

    What a very good possibility. It does now make one think how Burrs move could have happened without McConnell's approval. Ah, the things we do not know about when it comes to politics.

    For the same reasons almost nobody else is building their ships in the US. Our shipyards build at the high end of the pricing.

    Don jr could be our next President .. He's learning the ropes from the inside well .. Just seems typical of God to run us through the ringer to teach us He's there with a boat load of victory through the storms, and we all know what happens if Jesus is in the boat .. Lots of predicaments with victory the last couple yrs, politically speaking ..
