Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy posted a letter signed by the House Intelligence Oversight Committee to Pencil Neck Adam Schiff.
In his letter Rep. McCarthy cites House Rule XI, Cause 2(j)(1) The Minority Rule on calling witnesses. This rule allows the Minority to call any witnesses they want on at least one day of a congressional hearing, upon notifying the Committee chairman, which the Republicans did this morning.
Here is a copy of the letter. (Congressional Letter) According to the rule Democrats must allow Republicans at least one day to call any witnesses they want for at least one day of testimony.
Republicans sent of the letter this morning.

Quick! Change the rules again so you don't have to comply. Right, Dimms?!

Is there any law or rule that says that the Chairman of the Committee can't be called? I think the Republicans should demand that Schiff be called for questioning and get him in the witness box and ream him a new one. This bug-eyed b@st@rd should be expelled from the House for making up that phony statement as to what Trump said on the first day of the hearing.

This could throw a wrench into the timing of the vote to proceed to actual impeachment hearings (Judiciary committee). The dems want this to break prior to the release of the IG report. This could be the last testimony heard and more importantly reported prior to the vote plus giving it the appearance of a bums rush vote. Nice move!

They need to call as many people as they can who will take the Fifth, starting with Hunter and Schiff!
A perfect ending to a sham investigation!

Touche'!
Next week Thanksgiving (I'm thankful for Jordan, Scaleise, Meaddows, Turner, Stefanik, Radcliffe et al). Then, a race to December 9th.

Oops, Pencil Neck did not do a thorough job of covering his bases. Given that his own witnesses have offered NOTHING that looks like a crime or even a bad thought on Donald Trump's part, maybe the GOP can offer something to help the cause?
I'm really tired of this BOMB and BOMBSHELL stuff. The only proper use of the term is that after two months, the Pelosi and Schiff freak show is BOMBING out.

So what happens? Anything, or do the Dems just ignore it like they do everything else they don’t like.

Rules schmules. You think Pencil Neck cares about rules? He will just ignore the letter and deny them their day in court.

Of course it is true. The letter is in the posted article - an exact image of it.
The Dems had their own rules drawn up - didn’t Alcyee whateverhisnameis do that? Apparently he didn’t think about/know about this...

Who will the Republicans call, and to what end? What bigger bombshells can they bring to convince the masses? Seems the whole thing has been dismissed by the tuned-out public. Trump is winning on that most important front, his approval rating climbing as impeachment support collapses. Let it go at that. On to the next great accusation!

A poster asks what will Schiff do about this. Ignore it and get away with it.

Democrats will just steam roll this like everything else. If Republicans ever acted like this the 24/7 media would EXPLODE in self-righteous indignation.

The letter has no teeth. The only hope for me is, if the GOP can take the House in the next election, pursue Abuse of Power by Peloisi, Shiff, et al and kick them out of the House. Until then, it will be more of the same. The Minority will have no rights.

If Schiffhead tries to ignore this, Jordan, McCarthy et al should simply hold their hearing anyway. And be sure to subpoena Schiffhead. If he doesn’t show up, arrest him.

A short time ago Rush Limbaugh revealed he is skeptical about the content and/or impact of the Michael Horowitz report; he said John Durham’s report is more likely to have a significant impact.

I wish all of these people would finally get as tired of themselves as I am.

I'm surprised no one posted this yesterday since I normally don't get articles from Gateway Pundit. However, haven't heard any news on this, if true. Why? Bueller?
